Deep Mapping the Thoughts and Emotions Evoked by the Historical Attractions of Sicily during the Grand Tour
This article presents an interdisciplinary approach which includes digital humanities, emotionology, and spatial humanities applied to an archaeological context. The aim is to produce a digital deep map, by means of the Geographical Information System (GIS), of the historical attractions of Sicily, Italy, depicting the emotional responses, and the opinions described in the travelogues of the Grand Tour travellers. Mapping the emotions and opinion…
The Island of Cyprus through the Eyes of Eighteenth Century Travelers
Traveling and recording the adventures lived abroad in travelogues was a common practice among European aristocrats in the eighteenth century. The travel journals are filled with descriptions of the places they visited, but also with characterizations of their impressions and emotions evoked by historical landmarks. This paper aims to explore the sensations of northern and central European travelers to investigate the identity and sense of place …
A Methodological Approach for Intra – Site Analysis of Prehistoric Settlements
During the IGEAN (Innovative Geophysical Approaches for the Study of Early Agricultural Villages of Neolithic) project, more than 20 Neolithic-Early Bronze Age (EBA) settlements in the area of Thessaly, Central Greece, were investigated through various geophysical approaches. The prehistoric settlements of Almyros2, Almyriotiki, Perdika1 and Rizomilos2 have been selected to be studied in-depth about their intra-site spatial organization. Here, fo…
The Performances at the Theatre of the Pythion in Gortyna, Crete. Virtual Acoustics Analysis as a Support for Interpretation
The location of the so-called “small” Roman theatre of Gortyna (Crete), precisely at the back of the temple dedicated to Apollo Pythios , suggests a clear correlation of this monument with religious rituals. We may suppose that the theatre was used in particular during the Ludi Apollinares ( Pythia ), namely games and a festival dedicated to the God Apollo (held for the first time in Rome in 212 BC) or during the iso-Olympic agones as witnessed b…
D visibility analysis as a tool to validate ancient theatre reconstructions
With the diffusion of Virtual Archaeology, many projects in the field of Cultural Heritage attempt to virtually reconstruct historical buildings of different types. Unfortunately, some of these 3D reconstructions still have as principal aim to impress the external users, while the correct interpretation of the buildings modeled is much more important in the domain of archaeological research. Still more critical is the situation when we have to en…
