[The Constantinian basilica of Sant’Agnese. Archaeology and restoration] This volume contains a series of contributions on the discoveries, studies and restoration work conducted in recent years at the Basilica of Sant’Agnese fuori la mura, with particular focus on certain specific aspects of the topographical context. The investigation concentrates on the funerary basilica of the 4th century, intentionally overlooking the better-known and more thoroughly studied Basilica of Santa Costanza. The book describes new non-destructive techniques of investigation, to form a starting point, in terms of both archaeology and architectural conservation, from which to emphasize, once again, the indispensable role of rigorous, continuous maintenance.
