The main research activities concern the population of the Po
Valley and the Adriatic area in preRoman times, conducted through
the study of settlements and necropolises with particular regard to
the Etruscan towns of Marzabotto, Spina and Adria.
Specific fields
of study are: Etruscan and Italic epigraphies; the material
culture supported by an archaeometric approach with the
collaboration of the laboratories of the BiGeA of the University of
Bologna, housing in Italy during pre-Roman times; dwellings in pre-Roman Italy, with particular regard to the Etruscan and the Picenian territories; applications of the Virtual Archaeology discipline.
