The Tharros Network Project. Origin, Evolution and Development of Punic Economy and Diet in Central-Western Sardinia (Italy)

Abstract

The Tharros Network Project is an interdisciplinary project focused on the Punic-Roman city of Tharros and the Sinis Peninsula in Sardinia, an area characterized by a high density of archaeological sites dating from Neolithic to Early Middle Ages. The project aims to reconstruct the diachronic evolution of the Sinis economy and ecology through bioarchaeological, geoarchaeological and archaeometric analyses.
