Methodological insights into the study of centuriated field systems: a landscape archaeology perspective (2009)
Journal Article

The morphological identification of centuriated field systems has been characterised from its beginnings by methodological approaches mainly sustained on actus-based modular relationships and orientations. Many researchers dedicated to the identifica... Read More about Methodological insights into the study of centuriated field systems: a landscape archaeology perspective.
