Reading a low-visibility record in the central Apennines: first results from the Archaeological Landscape Survey at Rascino Plateau, Italy

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Mediterranean uplands often appear archaeologically poor, yet their surface record is shaped by geomorphic and post-depositional processes that vary over short distances. The 2025 Archaeological Landscape Survey at Rascino Plateau (ALSRaP) in Italy combines non-site survey and geoarchaeology to reconstruct the formation, preservation and visibility of the archaeological record in mountain landscapes.
