CategoryCulture

LanguageEnglish

FrequencyQuarterly

Forma Urbis, founded in 1995, has offered its readers a privileged access to some of the most interesting archaeological work ongoing in Italy. With special issues dedicated to the work of the foreign academies, to specific regions, or to publication of important conferences, it occupies an unusual space between popular magazines and serious academic work, combining the rigour of the latter with the production values of the former.
The English version of the magazine, Forma Urbis International, will provide a new and exciting gateway into the riches of Italian scholarship and archaeology, looking forward to occupy another important space, between the world of Italian scholarship and the didactic practices and opportunities in the English speaking world. Our quarterly issues will offer a direct way for students and teachers to access what is new and exciting in Italian archaeology, with special focuses on themes like women and open archaeology.
