Abstract

In the area between the Nebrodi Mountains and Val Demone, troglodytism has been at the basis of the urban experience for millennia and it is still a vital phenomenon today. Nonetheless, caved settlements are very fragile, undergoing the risk of disappearing. The paper introduces the CNR research activity on Sperlinga case as a potential role model in the attempt of balancing its survival, the preservation of tangible and intangible values and their adoption for a sustainable development.
