As part of its partnership with Inrap, the Mariana Museum is hosting an exceptional study day on preventive archaeology in Corsica.

The development of preventive archaeology has led to an unprecedented increase in knowledge of territories. Archaeological excavations carried out in Corsica before the construction of buildings or infrastructure document the island's occupations, contributing to the renewal of knowledge about its history.

This study day aims to share the results of archaeological research recently conducted by INRAP under the egis of the DRAC, from the famous excavation of the Etruscan necropolis of Lamajone in Aléria to the Neolithic site of Dilligato in Sotta, including the ancient city of Mariana, the medieval church of San Petru in Barbaggio, or the Genoese fort of Girolata. The examples presented by archaeologists, in collaboration with numerous partners, will also help outline perspectives for the future of preventive archaeology in Corsica.

Open to all, this day will take place at the Museum of the Archaeological Site of Mariana – Prince Rainier III of Monaco. You can also find the program by following this link :
