The principal aim of this paper is to indicate the more appropriate methodologies for geomorphological research in a «low plain» context.

Abstract

The principal aim of this paper is to indicate the more appropriate methodologies for geomorphological research in a «low plain» context. The methodologies are applied in two study cases: one is centered on the middle of the Bacchiglione River and the other on the Montegrotto Th ermae Neronian site; in both there are strong interrelations between geomorphic processes and ancient cycles of human occupation. Thus in the areas of interest, stratigraphic records of buried soils are often associated with archaeological remains.
