Nascita di una frontiera alpina. Il Colle del Piccolo San Bernardo (Valle d'Aosta/Tarentaise)2012 •
The Little St. Bernard Hill is a typical example of transit place, used for thousands of years and only become frontier in the Modern Time, as consequence of defensive necessities brought about by military conflict between the central European States. It arose from chance circumstances, but this new rolerapidly transformed it into frontier between national States. Through this pass, cult place as early as prehistoric times and provided with service and cult places in Roman epoch, a much more considerable commercial flow than the Great St. Bernard’s crossed until the 13th century included, and until the15th century it was an effective instrument of political control by Savoyards, as it was located fairly in the centre of their duchy. Its position really causedit to be late used as frontier from the beginning of the 17th century, in order to oppose French monarchy’s military initiatives. From that moment on, theterritory around the Hill, realised by military engineers as the best position to defence, was actually progressively transformed into a unitary defensivecomplex. As a result, within about a century, taking the best advantage on the favourable natural conformation of those places, several undertakingstransformed the area between the village of Petosan (La Thuile) and the Hillpass into Aosta Duchy’s most complex and jointed defensive system, whichis actually its central core, flanked towards NW and SE respectively by the minor installations of the Allèe Blanche Glacier and Valgrisanche’s head.Archaeological analysis has allowed the building process to be followed, that is a simple front line, with exclusive outpost functions, which evolved by a second line and some infrastructures (barracks, depots and service roadnetwork), that progressively improved its functionality. As regards thesecond line, La Thuile Valley became a real citadel with imposing risen fortifications (between 1500 and 2700 meters a.s.l.), which featured the ridgesfor several hundred meters and overlooked wide entrenched plain fields, with triangular and pentagonal earthen ramparts, that also served to protect barracks and depots. The working of such complex defence system was ordered by means of specific rules, that stated any operation in case of attack,in order to block the access to the Aosta Valley. In this case, sapping activities were also expected, like bridge and communication trench demolitionas well as mining at the head of the glaciers. However, the archaeological method, apart from the great constructions relevant to the organization of defence, has also allowed to check field structures (shelters, bivouacs, entrenchments), arranged by small groups of moving soldiers, while penetratingthrough Aosta Valley’s territory. The scenery, that can be outlined, is a militarily occupied land to such an invasive extent that, although regarding aspan of three centuries only, the remains of defensive structures represent by far the most considerable and visible archaeological evidence of the whole history of that site.

I versanti del rilievo del Monte Carpegna, che rientrano in parte nel all'interno del Parco Naturale del Sasso Simone e Simoncello, sono interessati da una serie di movimenti gravitativi di grandi dimensioni che mostrano una eccezionale varietà di tipologia. L'elevata franosità di questa area che ricade all'interno della ValMarecchia-Montefeltro è nota sin dal MedioEvo (Persi et al., 1993). Le varie Amministrazioni ebbero infatti problemi nella regolare riscossione dei tributi a causa dei danni provocati dalle frane che isolavano gli ...

L’attraversamento delle Alpi Retiche in età tardo antica. La Tabula Peutingeriana e le Viae Militares, in Histoire des Alpes – Storia delle Alpi – Geschichte der Alpen, 25-2020, pp. 119-1382020 •
In this study, we consider the historical road network in the Late Roman to the Early Mediaeval Period, focusing on the routes between the Lombardy Plains and the Rhaetian province. More specifically, we have analysed the Tabula Peutingeriana, a copy of a Roman map made in 1265 by a monk in Colmar. Our objective is to put forward a new reconstruction of the routes between Milan and Chur. At the same time, we want to suggest a new interpretation of the document as a whole and of the staging posts it features.
