Abstract(s)

General goal of this project is to represent the urban fabric of Conimbriga, through synthesis mapping by the assembly of the existing archaeological excavation data and data from remote sensing. This synthesis cartography makes it possible to integrate existing elements and to identify the articulation of the urban fabric. In order to succeed this, the first steps were to consult the available literature at the library, archive and data canter of the Museu Nacional de Conimbriga and combine all the given data in a comprehensive map. Moreover, we worked on the extension of the existing digital archaeological grid in order to identify precise location of each structure. In the end, the final product is a map representing the urban form of the city (Forma Urbis Conimbrigae) together with the database on the identified urban elements. This project is an intelligible interpretation according to our architectural and archaeological knowledge, not based only on tangible information, but rather on the synthesis and comparison of existing data with our general knowledge about the roman world.
