What are the deepest roots of that mixture of cultures that we usually call 'Mediterranean Civilization'? What are the mixes and exchanges that produced its most complete fruit, that is, the city, place of communities that shape the landscape? And what elements contributed to building that trunk of customs, ideas and innovations that forced different peoples to confront and hybridize for millennia? What did he do, from ceramics to metallurgy, from gastronomy to architecture, from art to religion, from a sea that was the cradle of civilization? Archeology can help unravel such questions, searching for unexpected answers, delving into what ancient Mediterranean peoples left buried in the ground. A privileged point of view of our course is the ancient Phoenician city of Motya, located exactly in the center of the “sea in the middle”. Throughout the live excavation experience, with images taken in the field, this course will allow you to touch the multiple tiles of the great mosaic of Mediterranean Civilization. The archaeologist's field journal and the selection will be the two tools that will take us across the sea to discover what those primitive cities really were and how their contribution remains an important part of our shared memory.
