Since 2005, the Laboratory of Ancient Topography, Archaeology and Remote Sensing, at the Institute for Archaeological and Monumental Heritage of the National Research Council (CNR-IBAM) of Italy, has performed landscape archaeology research in the territory of Hierapolis in Phrygia, in southwestern Turkey (Pamukkale, Denizli Province), as part of the Italian Archaeological Mission's activities1. Systematic surveys, aimed at the production of an archaeological map of the territory of Hierapolis, were performed between 2005 and 2008, while other investigations aimed at data control and updating were carried out in 2012 (Hierapolis of Phrygia Survey Project). New investigations, mainly dedicated to the study of the ancient quarries of marble, travertine and breccias, were carried out in 2013-2015 (Marmora Phrygiae Project).

Abstract
Since 2005, the Laboratory of Ancient Topography, Archaeology and Remote Sensing, at the Institute for Archaeological and Monumental Heritage of the National Research Council (CNR-IBAM) of Italy, has performed landscape archaeology research in the territory of Hierapolis in Phrygia, in southwestern Turkey (Pamukkale, Denizli Province), as part of the Italian Archaeological Mission's activities1. Systematic surveys, aimed at the production of an archaeological map of the territory of Hierapolis, were performed between 2005 and 2008, while other investigations aimed at data control and updating were carried out in 2012 (Hierapolis of Phrygia Survey Project). New investigations, mainly dedicated to the study of the ancient quarries of marble, travertine and breccias, were carried out in 2013-2015 (Marmora Phrygiae Project).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
