The excavation in the park of Villa Belmonte (Monte Pellegrino, Palermo) has brought to light several warehouses, made with a "pseudo-frame" technique, probably with a straw roof, used for the storage of foodstuffs, given the large quantity of Punic-type amphorae found in situ, datable to around the middle of the third century BC. In addition, a section of road - about 3 m wide that proceeds in the direction of WNW- ESE, consisting of two layers of use - has been intercepted. We believe to have tracked down part of a strategic/military station used by the Carthaginian army during the crucial years of the First Punic War. ; Lo scavo nel parco di Villa Belmonte (Monte Pellegrino, Palermo) ha messo in luce diversi ambienti, realizzati con una tecnica a "pseudo telaio" probabilmente con copertura straminea, adoperati per lo stoccaggio di derrate data la grande quantità di anfore di tipo punico rinvenute in situ, databili intorno alla metà del III sec. a.C. Inoltre, si è intercettato un tratto di strada larga circa 3 m che procede in direzione WNW- ESE, costituita da due battuti. Si ritiene di avere rintracciato parte di una postazione a carattere strategico/militare utilizzata dall'esercito cartaginese durante gli anni cruciali della I guerra punica.

This study aims to assess the different decay phenomena affecting the Cosenza Cathedral façade (Calabria, South Italy) through the evaluation of the relative damage indices. For this goal, a multidisciplinary approach was applied exploiting both nondestructive and microdestructive techniques. Such a combination enabled proposing an intervention priority scale that can be helpful to institutions when planning a prompt restoration intervention. The results suggest the efficiency of this approach to obtain a multidisciplinary diagnostic and conservation system for the management and valorization of the Cultural Heritage also in terms of monitoring, maintenance, and selection of the most suitable restoration procedures over time. ; The research activities have been partially funded by the project "ARCH—Advancing Resilience of historic areas against Climate-related and other Hazards" in the framework of the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement no. 820999.
