The Burnum Project: a combination of archaeological research and communication in Cultural Heritage

The archaeological site of Burnum is the subject of scientific research conducted since 2005 by the members of the Department of History, Culture and Civilization of Bologna University in collaboration with the Department of Archaeology of the University of Zadar. The project makes use of the fundamental support of the Krka National Park, committed to protecting the environmental heritage of the river valley and from 2003 also to enhancing the rich historical and archaeological context of the area. In this regard, while the research activities at Burnum continue to return new data and information on the history of the site during the Roman period, the project is also focusing on issues concerning virtual reconstruction and multimedia technologies applied to cultural heritage, with the aim of capturing attention, simplifying understanding and removing usage patterns.
