University of Sassari, Piazzale dell’Università 27, 07100 Sassari (SS), Italy
The project focuses on the territory of the Lower Mejerda Valley (Utica region) in order to reconstruct the peopling trend and settlement systems over the long term, with particular regard to the Bronze and Iron Ages, which have so far been little documented.The research involves an Italo-Tunisian team and is characterised by a hitherto little pursued investigation strategy in the local area and the objective of shedding light on Tunisian Protohistory, also in relation to the Mediterranean panorama.
