Descrizione
Since 2012 the Istituto di Studi sul Mediterraneo Antico – CNR has been conducting
an interdisciplinary research programme at the Roman villa of Cottanello (RI). The results of
these investigations have been published in a recent work (Pensabene, Sfameni 2017). This
paper presents some new studies on the villa, related, in particular, to the development of a
website created with the CMS Museum & Web. The implementation of the website gave the
opportunity to expand the research on the architectural terracottas, that represent one of the
most important and conspicuous groups of ancient material found during the excavations.
In particular, the article presents the online database of terracottas, their three-dimensional
graphic reconstruction and some archaeometric analysis. The paper provides also an overview
on other residential contexts, in which similar decorative terracottas were found.
