Abstract
In recent years, we have witnessed the development of new low-cost archaeological methodologies by using historical aerial photography, satellite photography, aerial LiDAR and geographical information systems (GIS).These tools not only provide a new and qualitatively differential approach to archaeology but also allow the study of the sites from a diachronic perspective. Our goal in this paper is to analyze the potential and limitations of these tools in the specific study of the Roman military enclosures from early Roman times, a type of archeological settlement characterized by the perishable nature of its structures and the shortage of material findings associated to them.
