Ruoli della rappresentazione nei processi di analisi, codifica e valorizzazione: il Castello Giusso di Sicignano degli Alburni

Abstract

This paper, part of a larger research of the Faculty of Engineering in the International Telematic University UNINETTUNO, aims to study and document - through the survey and 3D modelling as the main instruments of knowledge - the fortified architecture known as Castello Giusso and its surrounding area, with the ruins of the original patronal Church of San Matteo Apostolo ed Evangelista. The site, located in the southern Italy not far from the Cilento coast with the most knowed archeological sites of Paestum and Velia, is the original urban district of the town, at the foot of which the original village of San Matteo and Rupa grows along a path which, beyond a portal, gave acces to the area of the castle and to the patronal Church as long as existed. The ancient Church, presumably built in the XI century, housed an important reliquary of the Saint; our research is also aimed to identify the actual consistence and location of this lost heritage, that was demolished by the municipal authorities between 1925's and 1950's.
