| Résumé: | During the XXth century, numerous studies were carried out in the site of
ancient Ostia, also thanks to the support of aerial photography. Starting
from the "Topophotographich survey” realized by the Italian Army in 1911,
up to the "Atlante di Ostia antica” realized in 1996, Ostia has become one
of the most photographed from up high among archeological sites all around
Italy. The analysis of aerial photographs allows to develop a research structured
in two main branches: the study of the ancient city and of its urban
development, and the transformation of the landscape conceived by archaeologists
during the last century. Through aerial photographs it is possible to
understand the impact of the extensive excavations carried out from 1938
onward under the will of the fascism on the occasion of the Universal Exhibition
foreseen for 1942 in Rome (E42).
