Quali sono le radici più profonde di quel mix di culture che chiamiamo ‘civiltà mediterranea’? Quali commistioni e quali scambi hanno prodotto il suo frutto più completo, ossia la città, come luogo delle comunità che plasmano il loro territorio e i loro spazi? Quali elementi formarono il sostrato condiviso di usanze, tradizioni, idee, scoperte ed innovazioni che hanno messo a confronto e mischiato popoli diversi per millenni. Cosa ha fatto, dalla ceramica alla metallurgia, dalla gastronomia all’architettura, dall’arte alla religione di un mare una culla di civiltà? L’archeologia può servire a sviluppare queste domande e cercare delle risposte non scontate, toccando con mano quello che gli antichi popoli del Mediterraneo ci hanno lasciato. Punto di osservazione privilegiato del corso è l’antica città fenicia di Mozia, posta al centro del “mare di mezzo”. Attraverso l’esperienza diretta dello scavo, con immagini prese dal vivo, il corso vuole far toccare a chi vorrà parteciparvi le tessere del grande mosaico della civiltà mediterranea. Il diario dello scavo - il libro dell’archeologo - e la piccozzina usata per scavare saranno i due strumenti che ci condurranno attraverso il mare a scoprire cosa furono realmente queste antiche città, e come il loro contributo è ancora parte della nostra memoria condivisa.

Appassionante è dire poco, avrei dovuto laurearmi in Archeologia e non in Lingue Orientali! Di sicuro visiterò l'antica Mozia e farò la figa facendo da guida a chi verrà con me! Grande prof!

Frequently asked questions
Access to lectures and assignments depends on your type of enrollment. If you take a course in audit mode, you will be able to see most course materials for free. To access graded assignments and to earn a Certificate, you will need to purchase the Certificate experience, during or after your audit. If you don't see the audit option:
The course may not offer an audit option. You can try a Free Trial instead, or apply for Financial Aid.
The course may offer 'Full Course, No Certificate' instead. This option lets you see all course materials, submit required assessments, and get a final grade. This also means that you will not be able to purchase a Certificate experience.
When you purchase a Certificate you get access to all course materials, including graded assignments. Upon completing the course, your electronic Certificate will be added to your Accomplishments page - from there, you can print your Certificate or add it to your LinkedIn profile. If you only want to read and view the course content, you can audit the course for free.
You will be eligible for a full refund until two weeks after your payment date, or (for courses that have just launched) until two weeks after the first session of the course begins, whichever is later. You cannot receive a refund once you’ve earned a Course Certificate, even if you complete the course within the two-week refund period. See our full refund policy.
