My PhD project deals with Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age settlement development in southern Latium. It aims to shed light on the complex processes that lead up to centralization and urbanization, based on a qualitative investigation of settlement data and a foundation of sociological theory. Key sites in this project are Satricum and Mazzocchio.
