The area of Borbona (Rieti, Italy) has been sparsely researched from a historical and archaeological perspective. In order to obtain new data on unexplored areas, a systematic study was carried out combining archaeological explorations, photogrammetric surveys and geophysical prospections. All data was stored in a Geographic Information System, which enabled spatial analysis and the creation of thematic maps. The aim of the research was to discover the unknown territory and trace its origins. The project identified ancient habitats and significant Roman architectural fragments. The research aims to pass on the history and culture of Borbona to future generations and promote a sense of belonging. The protection of historical heritage and archaeologically endangered areas as well as the enhancement and promotion of existing cultural assets are fundamental measures to increase the attractiveness of the land in the present and preserve its identity in the future.
