Phari et Luminariasistemas de señalización marítima atlántico-mediterráneos

Abstract

In recent years, the study of maritime signaling systems has acquired a notable role in the analysis Of ports. The new research carried out on these infrastructures, such as the case of the Brigantium or Turris Caepionis lighthouse, as well as the reinterpretation of others such as the case of the Onoba lighthouse, represent a significant contribution to the world of ancient port knowledge in general. All this is complemented from a broader perspective of analysis, with new advances in Geographic Information Systems (GIS), which have positioned themselves in a privileged place from which to deepen the knowledge ofthe articulation and maritime control, thanks to the incorporation ofnew tools that allow the calculation, not only of their visibility basins, but of their reciprocity between different Coastal landmarks, facilitating the crossing of data between them from the same tool and on the same georeferenced planimetric system.
