“…As suggested by Deacon (2006) [149], the promotion of rock art as a touristic resource requires shared strategies aimed at understanding the interaction of key elements that affect the long-term conservation of frequently visited rock art sites as well as their original environmental and cultural (e.g., ethnoarchaeological) settings. In fact, specific tourism practices need to be adequate to local circumstances and local stakeholders [150][151][152] and the successful touristic development of rock art sites must include the development of the local economy and the promotion the local cultural landscape [153][154][155]. In such contexts of potential human-triggered threats to rock art sites, several successful examples of touristic accessibility exist, combining preservation and cultural and economic promotion.…”

Rock art is a widespread cultural heritage, representing an immovable element of the material culture created on natural rocky supports. Paintings and petroglyphs can be found within caves and rock shelters or in open-air contexts and for that reason they are not isolated from the processes acting at the Earth surface. Consequently, rock art represents a sort of ecosystem because it is part of the complex and multidirectional interplay between the host rock, pigments, environmental parameters, and microbial communities. Such complexity results in several processes affecting rock art; some of them contribute to its destruction, others to its preservation. To understand the effects of such processes an interdisciplinary scientific approach is needed. In this contribution, we discuss the many processes acting at the rock interface—where rock art is present—and the multifaceted possibilities of scientific investigations—non-invasive or invasive—offered by the STEM disciplines. Finally, we suggest a sustainable approach to investigating rock art allowing to understand its production as well as its preservation and eventually suggest strategies to mitigate the risks threatening its stability.

“…Nella fascia meridionale la situazione idraulica doveva presentarsi assai più intricata. È necessario al riguardo precisare che, come ho fatto poco sopra, non mi addentrerò nemmeno per quest'area in una dettagliata analisi geomorfologica, aspetto che esula dal presente lavoro, così come non indugerò neppure sul progressivo spostamento dell'alveo del Po o sulle modificazioni dei corsi di altri fiumi rinviando alla letteratura disponibile (Calzolari, 1989, Calzolari, 1998Marchetti, 2002;Marchetti, 2010;Brandolini, 2019;Brandolini, 2020;Brandolini, Carrer, 2020). Il Po dall'età tardoantica ebbe vari corsi.…”

Metamorfosi del paesaggio nella pianura fluviale mantovana (secoli VIII-XIII)

Il presente lavoro delinea le metamorfosi che il paesaggio della campagna ha subito nel cuore della Pianura Padana nei secoli VIII-XIII. Viene presa in esame la documentazione edita e inedita riguardante il territorio mantovano e in modo particolare la zona a ridosso del fiume Po. Per seguire i cambiamenti che l’area oggetto d’esame subì nel periodo considerato ci si soffermerà sulla presenza di aziende agrarie grandi e piccole nell’alto medioevo e i successivi interventi volti a ampliare le superfici coltivate. In quei secoli gli uomini, soprattutto per iniziativa soprattutto della Chiesa mantovana e del monastero di San Benedetto Polirone (ma anche il comune cittadino fra XII e XIII secolo favorì la messa a coltura di zone boschive), iniziarono una vera e propria lotta all’incolto con opere di disboscamento e di bonifica delle paludi, attività che qualche volta dovettero essere inutili per la forza delle acque: ciò emerge con evidenza soprattutto relativamente alle terre del monastero di San Benedetto grazie ad alcune lunghe deposizioni rese nel corso di una controversia. Tuttavia al principio del secolo XIII in vari luoghi le terre coltivate avevano preso il posto dei boschi tanto che risultavano essere “ad usum panis reducte”.

“…Channelisation and reclamation works started only in the 10th century CE and intensified between the 12 th and 13 th centuries CE [9] as a consequence of a general increasing demand for cultivated lands throughout Europe [10]. In the Central Po Plain, large-scale ground reclamation is dated to Renaissance (15 th century CE), it was renovated and updated many times in Modern Age (17 th and 19 th centuries CE), and it was completed only in the 20 th century CE resulting in the modern completely artificial landscape [11].…”
