The Ostia Marina Project has been on-going for over ten years in Ostia antica (Rome), in the suburban district outside Porta Marina. As a result of the recent discovery of new buildings and new indepth analyses of previously excavated buildings, there is now a scientific study into the many types of Roman pavements. In this paper, some examples of these floors are presented, with a detailed study of the preparation layers. Ancient floors are often studied only as bi-dimensional surfaces, but they are fully comprehensible (and datable) only with an analysis of the third dimension, that is the preparation layers and the substrate.

Abstract
The Ostia Marina Project has been on-going for over ten years in Ostia antica (Rome), in the suburban district outside Porta Marina. As a result of the recent discovery of new buildings and new indepth analyses of previously excavated buildings, there is now a scientific study into the many types of Roman pavements. In this paper, some examples of these floors are presented, with a detailed study of the preparation layers. Ancient floors are often studied only as bi-dimensional surfaces, but they are fully comprehensible (and datable) only with an analysis of the third dimension, that is the preparation layers and the substrate.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
