La piana di foce del Garigliano in età romana. Ricostruzione dell'ambiente antico e utilizzo delle sue risorse

The Garigliano delta plain is characterized by the occurrence of wetlands near the river mouth. Even though this plain presents many analogies with other similar ones, it could be considered a very interesting case of study because it was described in detail by Greek and Latin authors. The literary description is confirmed by the geoarchaeological analysis (based on archaeology, topography, geomorphology and paleobotany) and could help us to understand what the ancient environment was.
