Archaeology and topography of Santa Gilla (Cagliari) in medieval times: a new proposal for location through GIS. First notes
Abstract
Where exactly the medieval villa of Santa Gilla was and what topography it had, it is still a controversial subject discussed for decades by scholars of various disciplines. The urban expansion occurred along the lagoon has not allowed to carry out systematic archaeological investigations, and the data from the around the area consist of scattered interventions.
Through GIS have been collected archaeological finds, historical cartography and the current one, to allow proposing a new hypothesis of location of the church of Santa Gilla and to make first observations on the urban form of the medieval villa.
Dove si trovasse la capitale giudicale di Santa Gilla e che topografia avesse è da decenni argomento discusso da studiosi di varie discipline. L’espansione urbanistica avvenuta lungo la laguna non ha consentito di effettuare indagini archeologiche capillari, e le notizie che provengono dall’areale consistono in interventi sparsi.
La messa a sistema tramite GIS dei ritrovamenti archeologici, della cartografia storica e di quella attuale consente di proporre una nuova ipotesi di ubicazione della chiesa di Santa Gilla e di avanzare prime osservazioni sulla forma urbana della città medievale.
