- Abstract:
- The present paper defines some approaches employed to study the agrarian landscape of the Etruscan city of Caere.The aim is to verify some features of rural infrastructures of this territory, which has been planned systematically since the end of the 7th- early 6th century BC. Through the use of different approaches – from the archaeomorfology to the metrology, to the aerial photo interpretation – the research seeks to verify those signs suggesting systematic and symmetrical forms of occupation of the Caeretancountryside, as an effect of an articulated plan imposed by the city at the time of its greatest expansion. The results, still under development, show the constant recurrence of distances and orientations, with variations often related to the characteristics of the territory or the needs of community exploitation.
