Abstract
Geomorphological, geological, volcano-tectonic, bradyseismic and geoarchaeological features of the downtown of Naples, as well as hydrogeomorphological aspects of eastern and western coastal plains of Volla and Bagnoli-Fuorigrotta respectively, are explained. Particularly, the manmade caves of the historical center, dug and modeled in the Neapolitan yellow tuff during the last 2200 years and widely used as geomaterial for buildings, and their relationships with the urbanized landscape over time are also illustrated.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
