The necropolis of Valle Trebba in Spina (end of the VIth - IIIrd century BC) is taken as a case study. The area, dug between the ’20s and ’30s of the XXth century, has su ered the lack of a general plan and of a comprehensive study of the burial ground, which a ected the research for decades. The analysis of archive data, combined with the systematic study of burial contexts, led not only to the reconstruction of the missing plan, but also to attempt a recon- struction of the ancient landscape and of dynamics of occupation of the funeral area. Moreover, the development of a GIS allowed to bene t from a tool that implemented the data returned by the topographic documentation with a wide selection of georeferenced photographic and cartographic information. Thanks to this tool, we can insert the necropolis of Valle Trebba in a wider area and we can deal with issues related to the ancient landscape, such as routes within and outside the necropolis.

As stated in the title, the starting point of the process was the analysis conducted on the tangible archaeological evidence of building materials; these latter were fully integrated with data provided by the ancient sources and the latest technology. Next, the problems and the solutions adopted in order to recreate the houses are presented. In the last section the criteria used for the visual restitution of the unexcavated context of the ancient city are explained.
