Analisi tecnico-costruttive sull'impianto termale in C.da Sofiana

In connection to the vast archaeological area of Sofiana, which is still periodically subjected to excavation campaigns, the investigated thermal complex represents the first emersion that occurred in the 1950s and testifies to all the limits of a premature methodological acquisition of both the documentation for cognition as well as the interventions of detection and restoration. This zone, considered by archaeologists as a concluded episode, was used by us as a test bench for a method of investigation from which to start again in order to supply much missing information. We set aside all the data acquired over time with other traditional and innovative tools and visions and used a more accurate dimensional geometric survey with a laser scanner, a typological analysis confronted with similar experiences, and a constructive technical study enriched with diagnostic investigations, to provide new information to be collected and processed. The decision to review, from a technical point of view, the results of the excavations has already been undertaken with cognitive purposes, to evaluate other chronological and morphological hypotheses about the roman baths; a study that we hope and intend to continue for giving support to plan a desirable future for Philosophiana’s remains.
