The contribution of geochemistry to ancient harbor geoarcheology: The example of Ostia Antica
Abstract Once trapped in ancient harbor basins, sediments form environmental archives that have been widely studied by geoarcheologists in recent decades, especially to help reconstruct fluvio-marine landscapes of the last millennia. In some cases, classic environmental markers cannot be used for this purpose either because of their scarcity in the ...

Late Holocene pollen record from Fiume Morto (Dead River), a palaeomeander of Tiber River near Ancient Ostia (central Italy) [PDF]
Pollen and non pollen palynomorph analyses were carried out in a sediment core (MO2) drilled in the southern lobe of a palaeomeander, Fiume Morto (Dead River), in the Tiber delta area, near Ancient Ostia (central Italy). Since the Roman period, the Tiber River flowed close to Ancient Ostia and its saltworks, Salinae Ostiensis.
