		<description><![CDATA[A residential centre and a cult area dated 4.000 years ago were brought to light by the Superintendence of Archaeological Heritage of the independent province of Trent (Italy).
The small village of Gardolo di Mezzo, just few kilometres north from Trent, is going to become one of the most important locations for the archeology in the italian Alps.
The in-depth inquiries brought on by the Superintendence of Archaeological Heritage of the independent province of Trent since 2003 are revealing one of the most important archaeological sites dated back to Bronze Age in the south of the Alps. It is considered as the most important archaeological discovery which was ever made in the Trentin territory in the latest years...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Archaeological researches in Riva have given the light to a complex building date back to the Roman epoch. It is about 750 squared meters wide and it was meant as public thermae.
The building consists of a big central courtyard surrounded by areas with pavement heating, which have been considered as: tepidarium, caldarium, laconicum as the usual thermal sequence required.
A big open area was located outside the building, probably used as a garden and originally fenced by outer walls...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since a few days, the archaeological inquiry on the top of “San Martino” mount in Trentin, in the mountain range between Lomaso and Altogarda, undertaken by the Superintendence of Archaeological Heritage of the Independent Province of Trent, concerning the ancient fortress which was brought to light 4 years ago has restarted.
It is reachable by just one hour and a half on foot from Lundo, and it is bringing back to life a barbarian fortress, the last, isolated bulwark of the ancient Garda system and of the rich towns in the Po plain: Verona and Brescia.
The excavation campaign, which has reached its fourth year, will go on up to the end of August. The excavation site has reached an extreme importance: this is why the experts all around Europe are already promoting and studying this case...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the working field for the completion of a purification installation on Via Ariana (between Colleferro and Artena, near Rome, in Italy), an intervention of preventive research meant to verify the presence of archaeological remains along the outline of the drainage conduct has been foreseen by the Environmental department of the Municipality of Colleferro, by the Municipal Archaeological Museum and by the Superintendence of Archaeological Heritage of Lazio.
It’s thanks to this focused planning that, at the height of the bridge “Ponte delle Pagnote”, located at the 6.500th kilometer from Artena, a segment of the roman “glareata” street has been detected.
The street has a length of twenty-three meters with a pavement made of lime cobblestone; on the north side, the street has been partly damaged by the seasonal plowing, whilst the south one has been perfectly conserved and on several segments you can still see larger masses of retaining wall and the basis, made of sandy limestone, conserved for over 50 centimeters...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A roman ara funeraria (burial ground) from the I century B.C. has been found in perfect conservation status near the ancient via Emilia, in Modena (Italy), during the ongoing excavations for carrying out some underground passages, at a height equal to that of the passage of the Modena-Sassuolo railroad.
The rooftop of the Ara Romana has been discovered at a depth of just over one and a half meters from the plain's ground level, as the step basement upon which the structure stands is yet to be brought to surface...]]></description>
