Archaeobotanical investigations and experimental activity performed at Bàsura Cave (Toirano, NW Italy) reveal clues on Epigravettian cave lighting systems
The Bàsura Cave (Toirano, NW Italy) is one of the most important caves in northern Italy conserving the fossilised footprints of a walking trail left by a small group of humans accompanied by a canid dating to the Epigravettian and an impressive cave bear bone deposit of the middle Pleistocene. In 2016 a new research project entitled “The Bàsura Revisited”, returned to fieldwork through a multidisciplinary approach, with the aim of understanding …
Long-term environmental dynamics and agro-sylvo-pastoral practices in the SW Alps (Italy)
Transhumant pastoralism has played a central role in shaping and managing Mediterranean mountain landscapes. Together with specialized agricultural and sylvicultural practices it has played a pivotal role in transforming the ecology of environmental systems over time: from plant and animal populations, up to the physical-chemical properties and structural characteristics of the soils. This contribution aims to identify and characterize agro-sylvo…
Cavity detection using a pseudo-3D electric resistivity tomography at the Palaeolithic/Neolithic site of Scaloria Cave, Apulia, Italy
A pseudo-3D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) survey has been carried out to detect cavities at the Neolithic/Palaeolithic site of Grotta Scaloria, close to Manfredonia, Apulia, Italy. Scaloria Cave has a rich history of archaeological research of more than 80 years and is one of the most important Neolithic complexes in the Mediterranean. Synthetic data modelling allowed to check the adequacy of the geophysical method and to develop a prop…
Following the Father Steps in the Bowels of the Earth
The chapter summarizes the new results of the Bàsura Revisited Interdisciplinary Research Project. The integrated interpretation of recent archaeological data and palaeosurface laser scans, along with geoarchaeological, sedimentological, geochemical and archaeobotanical analyses, geometric morphometrics and digital photogrammetry, enabled us to reconstruct some activities that an Upper Palaeolithic human group led inside a deep cave in northern I…
Micromorphology and origin of an unusual bear fur-bearing deposit in Bàsura Cave (Toirano, NW Italy)
Land capability classification of Vernazza catchment, Cinque Terre National Park, Italy
Land capability classification is based on chemical and physical properties of soils for agricultural purposes. Objective of this study is the realization of the land capability map in the Vernazza catchment, an historically terraced landscape in the Cinque Terre National Park, recognized as a World Heritage site by UNESCO since 1997. A pedolandscape map with a descriptive legend, based on the soil-landscape paradigm for the prediction of soil cl…
Micromorphological investigations at Scaloria Cave (Puglia, South-east Italy)
Assessment of soil erosion risk in a typical Mediterranean environment using a high resolution Rusle approach (Portofino promontory, NW-Italy)
Particularly the Liguria region in Northern Italy is highly affected by soil erosion processes. This study was conducted in the Portofino promontory in eastern Liguria, to predict potential annual soil loss using the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE). Moreover, we evaluate the relative accuracy of the predictions at detailed scale, using high resolution spatial information for model calibration. The RUSLE factors were calculated for th…
From a stratigraphic sequence to a landscape evolution model
Relationships between geo-hydrological processes induced by heavy rainfall and land-use
On 25 October 2011, heavy rainfall affected an area of ca.1000 km 2 between eastern Liguria and northern Tuscany (northwest Italy).The event caused floods, hundreds of shallow landslides, four casualties and severe structural and economic damage in Monterosso and Vernazza villages.The distribution of geo-hydrological processes triggered by rainfall in relation to land-use was analyzed in the Vernazza catchment.Both, an inventory map of geo-hydrol…
Climate and environmental changes recognized by micromorphology in Paleolithic deposits at Arene Candide (Liguria, Italy)
Loess distribution on the northern flank of Ligurian Alps (NW-Italy)
Physical land suitability map for Tuber magnatum Pico in Piana Crixia municipality territory (Liguria-Italy)
Please click here to download the map associated with this article. Land suitability is the fitness of a given type of land for a specific use. Tuber magnatum Pico is one of the most valuable truffles present in Italy. The objective of this study was to assess the suitability of land to favour the growth of T. magnatum, using detailed soil spatial information, for the area around Piana Crixia (a town in Province of Savona, Italy). The work is bas…
