Geomorphology of the Balzi Rossi archaeological area and of its shallow seafloor (Ventimiglia, NW Italy)
Geomorphological mapping is a powerful tool for reconstructing the evolution of landscapes inhabited by human communities since prehistory. We present high-resolution (1:1000) geomorphological mapping of the Balzi Rossi archaeological area (Liguro-Provençal coast, NW Italy), an outstanding site for European prehistory which has been inhabited since the Middle Pleistocene. The map was produced by combining different types of remote sensing data, c…
Geomorphology of the northwestern Kurdistan Region of Iraq
We present the geomorphological map of the northwestern part of the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, where the landscape expresses the tectonic activity associated with the Arabia-Eurasia convergence and Neogene climate change. These processes influenced the evolution of landforms and fluvial pathways, where major rivers Tigris, Khabur, and Great Zab incise the landscape of Northeastern Mesopotamia Anticlinal ridges and syncline trough compose the Zagro…
The Khartoum-Omdurman conurbation
Khartoum is one of the largest cities in Africa, located immediately south of the junction of the Blue and White Nile rivers in central Sudan. The growth of the Greater Khartoum-Omdurman conurbation arosewithout a proper urban planfrom the agricultural wealth created through the completion of three dams, and mostly in the last three decades. Urban expansion was enabled by and helped to enhance the major agricultural expansion of the Gezira clay p…
Geomorphology of the Jebel Qara and coastal plain of Salalah (Dhofar, southern Sultanate of Oman)
We present the results of the geomorphological mapping of a region of the Dhofar (Sultanate of Oman) including two contrasting physiographic units sharing a common drainage system into the Arabian Sea: the Jebel Qara limestone massif and the coastal plain of Salalah. Neogene to Quaternary tectonic activity controlled the formation of an extensive system of faults and caused the uplift of the Jebel Qara, forming structural escarpments. The massif …
Sur la route de Palmyre à Apamée. Note préliminaire à propos des bornes milliaires romaines retrouvées à l’ouest de Palmyre et de leur contexte géomorphologique
Lors d’une prospection archéologique menée en Palmyrène occidentale par la Mission syro-italienne ont été mises au jour 16 bornes milliaires, dont certaines portaient des inscriptions encore lisibles. Découverts sur la route menant de Palmyre à Apamée sur l’Oronte, ces milliaires datent principalement de l’époque des Sévères, avec une première intervention en 198, suivie d’une restauration en 212 (ou 213). Des travaux plus tardifs semblent pouvoi…
Geoarchaeology in an urban context
On the grounds of geomorphological evidence, core stratigraphy, and archaeological and historical sources, the relationships between the urban development of Reggio Emilia (Po River plain, Northern Italy) and the adjoining Crostolo River are reconstructed over the last two millennia. The town of Reggio Emilia was established in the second century B.C. along the Crostolo River, but geographic relationships between river and town changed several ti…
Geomorphological Map of the Tadrart Acacus Massif and the Erg Uan Kasa (Libyan Central Sahara)
Here we present a geomorphological map of the Tadrart Acacus Massif and Erg Uan Kasa (SW Libya, central Sahara). The geomorphological mapping of the area was carried out by means of satellite imagery analysis followed by detailed control of units in the field. The Tadrart Acacus is a sandstone massif delimited to the West by a high scarp and cut by a dendritic fossil drainage network of W-E-oriented wadis. The massif has been shaped since the Ter…
