This volume results from the conference "Between Appia and Latina, Settlement Dynamics and Territorial Development on the Slopes of the Alban Hills", held at the Royal Dutch Institute at Rome (KNIR) in February, 2017. It contains 23 methodological, thematic and material culture studies on the historical topographical reconstruction of the Alban Hills in Antiquity with a focus on the area of contact with the suburbium of Rome. Papers present both data from new research and results of research done in the past. In the initiative a range of research institutions partook (foreign Institutes at Rome, Universities, Archaeological Services) and independent researchers stimulating the exchange of current knowledge of this small, but important part of the Campagna Romana.

The open access publication of this book has been published with the support of the Swiss National Science Foundation. Death, the ultimate change, is an unexpected Leitmotiv of Ovid’s career and reception. The eighteen contributions collected in this volume explore the theme of death and transfiguration in Ovid’s own career and his posthumous reception, revealing a unity in diversity that has not been appreciated in these terms before now.

Questo volume contiene ventitré contributi, presentati durante la giornata di studi "Tra Appia e Latina, dinamiche insediative e sviluppo del territorio alle pendici dei Colli Albani", tenutasi a Febbraio del 2017, nelle sale del Reale Istituto Neerlandese di Roma (KNIR). Sono riportati alcuni approfondimenti sulla cultura materiale, sulla metodologia della ricerca e sulle tematiche che concorrono alla ricostruzione storico topografica dei Colli Albani, con particolare riguardo per l'area di congiunzione con il suburbio di Roma. Nel volume si raggiunge l'obiettivo di discutere alcuni dati di recente acquisizione e di presentare i principali risultati degli studi che negli anni si sono interessati a questo territorio. L'iniziativa ha visto coinvolti diversi enti di ricerca (Istituti stranieri, Università, Soprintendenze) e ricercatori indipendenti, al fine di stimolare il confronto e la circolazione delle conoscenze su una piccola, ma importante porzione della Campagna Romana.
