description <p>The research concerns the understanding of the Maxentius complex, made up by the Villa, Mauso-leum and the Circus of the same name, found at the III mile of the Appian Way and dating back to the 4th century A.D. The research work has been carried out on two levels: on one hand, aimed at achieving the restoration of the archeological structure, and on the other, to investigate the role the Maxentius complex played within the arche-ological infrastructure of the Appian Way and its relation to the territorial and landscape systems of the Roman Suburbia as it is located within the Appian Way Park. This work is proposed as a con-tribution in the historical documentation and in the scientific and cognitive investigation, as well as in the experimentation of digital technologies applied to the survey of cultural heritage and in the archaeological field.</p>
