The recent urban studies on the city of Kos 1 (Fig. 16.1 in Rocco and Livadiotti in this volume) offer a holistic analysis of the city. We have learned about the urban grid and the monumental development, the increase in the number of religious, political and public buildings, and we are able to create a three-dimensional image of urban structures, but without people and their everyday life. So, we have to read the ancient city from a double perspective: the architectural structure and the cultural context.
L'articolo affronta la ricostruzione del sistema rituale e delle processioni analizzando le iscrizioni e monumenti della città di Kos. Ne emerge l'immagine di una città cerimoniale in cui il sacro e gli eventi pubblici costituiscono un elemento importante della struttura sociale e degli impianti dell'architettura pubblica.

Abstract
The recent urban studies on the city of Kos 1 (Fig. 16.1 in Rocco and Livadiotti in this volume) offer a holistic analysis of the city. We have learned about the urban grid and the monumental development, the increase in the number of religious, political and public buildings, and we are able to create a three-dimensional image of urban structures, but without people and their everyday life. So, we have to read the ancient city from a double perspective: the architectural structure and the cultural context.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
