<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> The paper describes the final step of the Baratti in 3D project, aimed at the dissemination of the important archaeological heritage of the Etruscan city of Populonia (Tuscany, Italy). The chain of “data metrical surveying &ndash; 2D and 3D representation &ndash; communication” has been applied on the “Princes's tombs” of the monumental necropolis of San Cerbone and its finds to provide a detailed description of their context, workmanship, morphological characteristics and materials to realize the virtual recreation. The preservation of the finds from the excavations in two different museums far from the archaeological area (the Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Firenze and the Museo Archeologico del Territorio di Populonia, in Piombino) makes the understanding of the original context very difficult for visitors. Thus the “Baratti in 3D Project” has been conceived in order to document the tombs, their finds and produce the “virtual match” showing in its entirety the environmental and architectural provenance and material ritual context and in order to display in innovative visual approach this archaeological heritage. To complement the interactive platform, as a physical fallout of this project has been realized “A museum in every sense”, a permanent exhibition in the Museo Archeologico del Territorio di Populonia.</p>

The series "Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing" contains publications on theory, applications, and design methods of Intelligent Systems and Intelligent Computing. Virtually all disciplines such as engineering, natural sciences, computer and information science, ICT, economics, business, e-commerce, environment, healthcare, life science are covered. The list of topics spans all the areas of modern intelligent systems and computing such as: computational intelligence, soft computing including neural networks, fuzzy systems, evolutionary computing and the fusion of these paradigms, social intelligence, ambient intelligence, computational neuroscience, artificial life, virtual worlds and society, cognitive science and systems, Perception and Vision, DNA and immune based systems, self-organizing and adaptive systems, e-Learning and teaching, human-centered and human-centric computing, recommender systems, intelligent control, robotics and mechatronics including human-machine teaming, knowledge-based paradigms, learning paradigms, machine ethics, intelligent data analysis, knowledge management, intelligent agents, intelligent decision making and support, intelligent network security, trust management, interactive entertainment, Web intelligence and multimedia.The publications within "Advances in Intelligent Systems and Computing" are primarily proceedings of important conferences, symposia and congresses. They cover significant recent developments in the field, both of a foundational and applicable character. An important characteristic feature of the series is the short publication time and world-wide distribution. This permits a rapid and broad dissemination of research results.
Il paper presenta i primi risultati del progetto Cortona Heritage, che utilizza le tecniche del virtual heritage per implementare modalità concrete e innovative che rendono il ricco patrimonio culturale dell'antica città toscana accessibile a più persone e coinvolgono nuovi pubblici promuovendone la conoscenza tra le giovani generazioni. Cortona Heritage ha preso inizio nel 2016 su proposta dell'Università degli Studi di Firenze, con la collaborazione del Comune di Cortona e del Museo dell'Accademia Etrusca e della Città di Cortona-MAEC.
The wreck of St. Jordi (near the island of Majorca in the Balearic Islands) documents in the hold the presence of a bowl signed by the potter Lapius, active in central Italy in the II century BC. The wreck of St Jordi, left from a port of the Ionian (Pergamo, Rhodes?), can have stopped in the port of Ostia, depositing rhodian wine amphorae and loading black gloss ware, and other materials, in addition to Italo - Megarian ware, directed to the Iberian Peninsula. In his cabotage, the ship should have coasted the Balearic Islands, and then from Ebusus (Ibiza) to the port of Cartagena in which to download the content of the cargo hold. But the journey of the ship has been arrested in front of Majorca after a terrible storm that has wrecked the ship with its cargo before being able to arrive in the harbor. Another maritime itinerary could have been from the emporion of Delos with a stop in a port of Apulian, through the strait of Messina, and then to reach the port of Ostia, from where to leave again crossing the channel north Sardinian near the Spargi island and then to head towards the Balearic Islands, transporting, among other goods, Hellenistic relief ware of Ephesian production (from the Monogram workshop), as prove the megarian ware found in the Cales Coves in Menorca and the four bowls in the graves of the necropolis of Puig des Molins in Ibiza.
