The team of Chieti University is employing the most recent protocols for mapping, excavations and restorations, such as the use of DGPS positioning and GIS mapping and database, the infra-red thermo-camera for diagnostic analysis of the monuments, 3D laser scanning of the monuments, remote sensing. The article illustrates the results of the team for the period 1998-2008, with just new data original results. The team works in strict collaboration with other Libyan and International teams, such as the colleagues of the Department of Antiquities of Tripoli and of the Libyan Ministry of Archaeology and Turism, the Universities of Benghazi, Tripoli and Al Bayda, Oberlin College-Ohio, the Libyan Society of London, consultants of UNESCO.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
