| Resumo: | [EN] As part of a Memorandum of Understanding between the Polytechnic of Bari, the University of Bari and the Academy of Albanological Studies of Tirana, research on Albanian fortified architecture was started which also saw recognition by the MAECI. The studies, starting from experiences already acquired by the Polytechnic and the University of Bari on the Apulian fortified works, aim to create an atlas of fortified architecture in Albania and in-depth interventions on some significant case studies. Having noted a series of limitations in various studies on fortified architecture in Albania and in particular the lack of comparisons between eastern and western sources, it was possible to find a chronological classification of the sites based almost exclusively on typological aspects and construction techniques, generating a certain rigidity that should be rethought in the light of new studies and insights. Add to this the lack of excavations and archaeological tests which can highlight, with greater clarity and precision, chronological indicators to be associated with the wall structures. A first approach to the topic was to create a Geographic Information System (which is being structured and enriched as the research progresses) in which the main examples of Albanian fortified architecture were inserted to begin to define some fundamental relationships between the fortification system and the geo-morphological aspects of the territory, the hydrographic network and the ancient and medieval roads. Two case studies were identified at the same time: the fortified citadels of Berat and Tepelene for a first series of historical investigations and surveys of some significant structures in order to be able to carry out some reflections on the restoration operations that have involved, over the past few years , the two fortresses. |
