Description
The second volume of the series "30 years of archaeological informatics", published in the series Futuro Anteriore, is dedicated to archeology databases: filing systems widely used in the archaeological field since the end of the XNUMXs as an effective means of managing the large quantities of data with which the scholar had to deal with in the various sectors of research on the 'ancient. Their application has therefore covered, characterizing it, the entire history of archaeological information technology. The theme is well suited to the pages of this series, which was born with the intention of projecting past experiences into the future with an epistemic function and with retrospective value, through a temporal transposition.
