The project aims to systematize the large amount of data collected during 26 years of research by different archaeologists and specialists who have worked in synergy on the site and in the laboratories, increasing digital resources and making the results of the work public for not only a specialist audience. We intend to continue the excavation investigations to understand the social life of the city, starting with sector II, which is returning intact or completely rebuildable artefacts, as well as many archaeozoological and paleobotanical remains; for the same reason, investigations will continue in the necropolis, assisted by anthropologists. The area of the military garrison and the central area of the city will then be further investigated. We will continue with the restoration of the structures and of the mobile finds, also with both scheduled operations and emergency interventions directly on the construction site.
We intend to expand the variety of the specialisms called to collaborate with archeology, starting to create a 3D digital model of the excavation, namely stratigraphic deposits, structures and artifacts, with the acquisition of new data directly on site, the reworking and integration of data from previous excavation campaigns, realignment of documentation according to new and more updated standards. The new SIGEDAC, the information system (started in the 2019 program) which allows the integrated management of archaeological data with anthropological, archaeozoological, geological data, restorations, different analyses etc., will be implemented. A WebGis will be created to integrate and display all the information, allowing it to be shared in a web environment on various channels, starting with the excavation website, which will be restructured. The museum project of some finds will also be completed at the University's History of Medicine Museum.
