Generally speaking, I am a Classical archaeologist with a strong predilection for Roman archaeology. Nonetheless, my interests cover a wider area, including Greek and Roman architecture and architectural decoration, Mediterranean urbanism and urban studies from the early Archaic period to Late Roman times, Roman and Italic sanctuaries, archaeological method and theory, Greek and Roman art, especially portraiture and sculpture, ancient construction techniques and design, material culture and architecture of the Roman provinces, and virtual reconstruction and cultural heritage. I always try to look at Greek and Roman art, architecture and material culture in their Mediterranean context, with particular regard to aspects of cultural transfer, traditions and innovations.
