Scambi e commerci in area Vesuviana : i dati delle anfore dai saggi stratigrafici i.e. (impianto elettrico) 1980-81 nel Foro di Pompei /
:
Transport amphorae are one of the best archaeological indicators for evaluating the economy and trade of societies in the ancient world. This monograph, produced by researchers from the University of Cadiz and the Ca' Foscari University of Venice, includes the study of nearly five hundred of these commercial containers, recovered during the pioneering stratigraphic excavations carried out in 1980-1981 at the Forum of Pompeii, called conventionally 'Impianto Elettrico'. The work represents the first Pompeian monograph dedicated exclusively to the analysis of the amphoric evidence brought to light by archaeological excavation activities in the city buried by the eruption of Vesuvius and analyses in diachronic perspective the main productions in circulation between the VI/V BC and the year 79 AD.

Romans, rubbish, and refuse : the archaeobotanical assemblage of Regione VI, Insula I, Pompei /
:
The extensive excavations (1995-2006) by the Anglo-American Project in Pompeii provided a rare insight into chronological change within the city. This research was significant as an insula block within Pompeii had never previously been excavated in its entirety. The analysis of all the recovered seeds, fruits and cereal remains provided an opportunity to undertake a diachronic study of urban Roman plant food consumption and discards, the results of which are discussed here.

Houses in Herculaneum : A new View on the Town Planning and the Building of Insulae III and IV /
:
In this study a new view is given on the city-plan of ancient Herculaneum, by combining the evidence from the ancient writers, the 19th century explorations and the analysis of the measurements of the excavated house-blocks ('insulae'). Furthermore, it contains a detailed examination of the southernmost insulae III and IV, with surprising results. First of all the allotment of these two insulae is made visible, which gives way to a discussion about the division of land in pre-Roman Campania. Furthermore, the author distinguishes some new types of houses, which differ from the already known atrium buildings.
