  • Grand challenges for the quantitative study of past movement systems in the twenty-first century

    Open AccessJoseph Lewis, Francesca Fulminante et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science2026

    Past movement systems represent the material remnants of a past society's socio-political and economic interactions. While qualitative studies have expanded significantly, quantitative approaches have yet to fully leverage computational advances to better understand the formation and development of these movement systems. This special issue contextualises the collected papers within a broader ‘quantitative study of past movement systems’ overview…

  • Pre-Colonial Latin Colonies and the Transition to the Mid-Republican Period in the Faliscan Area and South Etruria

    Open AccessUlla RajalaARTICLEPapers of the British School at…2016Referências: 29

    This paper discusses the survey evidence from the Orientalizing and Archaic settlement and funerary sites at Nepi (ancient Nepet), one of the first Latin colonies outside Latium adiectum. The comparison of its pre-Roman, pre-colonial developments to the Roman patterns from the Nepi Survey Project and the trends from other Latin colonies in southern Etruria allows the examination of the local effects of Roman colonialism. The evidence shows that N…

  • The concentration and centralization of late prehistoric settlement in central Italy

    Open AccessUlla RajalaARTICLEPapers of the British School at…2013Citada por: 1Referências: 14

    This article discusses the evidence for the concentration and centralization of late prehistoric settlement in central Italy, using the territory of Nepi as an example of settlement aggregation in southern Etruria. This example helps to explain the regional developments leading to urbanization and state formation in Etruria from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age. The article also publishes new sites with late prehistoric ceramic material from the Ne…

  • The Roman Ceramic Material From Field Walking in the Environs of Nepi

    This paper explores the ceramic assemblage of the Nepi Survey Project from the third century bc to the seventh century ad . The surface collection allows the detailed characterization of chronology, ware, fabric supply and functional characteristics. The assemblage shows a settlement explosion in the early second century bc, with another major rise from the Augustan period. The sharp decline in the late second to early third centuries ad is visib…

  • ‘We Would Never Have Thought to Go There’ – The Changing Definitions of a Site in Central Italian Archaeology

    Open AccessUlla RajalaARTICLEBulletin of the History of…2006

    A ‘site’ is one of the key concepts in archaeology, and is not specific to central Italian archaeology. Archaeologists have tried to define what constitutes a site and how it can be measured. One definition of a site is ‘as places where significant traces of human activity are identified’ (Renfrew & Bahn 1994: 42). Essentially, a ‘site’ has to be distinguished from a ‘non-site’ and the boundary between the two has to be drawn (Carman 1999). These…

  • Sense and Sensibility - Reflections on the Epistemology and Ontology of GIS Studies

    Open AccessUlla RajalaARTICLEInternet Archaeology2004

    This article discusses the relationship between philosophy, archaeological theory and the use of GIS. It is argued that although specific theoretical issues have been discussed, epistemological and ontological questions with regard to the characteristics of data and data processing have not been subjected to rigorous theoretical critique. This is essential to understand the archaeological and non-archaeological qualities of data formats and GIS p…

  • Origins of Etruscan Cities. A Brief Analysis of Recent Interpretations within Italian Research

    Open AccessUlla RajalaARTICLEBulletin of the History of…2004Citada por: 2Referências: 1

    In this paper I will discuss briefly the transformation of different theories regarding the origin of Etruscan city-states during the history of Italian archaeology. The question of state formation can be seen as one of the key problems of Italian archaeology. Generally, the concept of Italian archaeology can be understood in two different ways: it can either refer to the research undertaken by Italian archaeologists themselves, or to research in…
