The focus will be on the bricks that covered and sealed the burials, which constitute the overall best preserved materials. In fact, despite still being a class of materials generally considered somehow of secondary relevance, a detailed analysis can lead not only to interesting data on the context itself but also to new starting points for studies on the surrounding area.</p> Francesco Serra ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/layers/article/view/6258 Thu, 05 Jun 2025 00:00:00 +0200 https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/layers/article/view/6318 <p>In this work, we propose a synthetic and updated critical review of the studies dedicated to the Monte Arci obsidian, retracing their historical evolution, the different methodological approaches applied and the most significant scientific results achieved; finally, the current perspectives of interdisciplinary research are outlined.</p> Laura Fanti, Barbara Melosu ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/layers/article/view/6318 Tue, 15 Jul 2025 09:52:09 +0200 https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/layers/article/view/6677 <p>This paper proposes a morpho-typological analysis of oil lamps from sector Delta in the southern part of the ex-area militare of Nora, Sardinia. Its goal is to provide data establishing the chronological period during which the large building complex was in use and to construct a fuller picture of the role of Nora in Mediterranean trade during the Roman era.</p> Flavia Zedda ##submission.copyrightStatement## http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/layers/article/view/6677 Mon, 04 Aug 2025 10:15:26 +0200 https://ojs.unica.it/index.php/layers/article/view/6716 <p><strong>Book review: Santino Alessandro Cugno (ed.), <em>TOPOGRAFIA ANTICA.
