Abstract

In recent years, architectural decoration has received more attention than in the past. Thanks to the development of a complex methodological approach involving different areas of ancient sciences, it was possible to develop the scientific potential resulting from this valuable fragment of the past, through the analysis of the marbles that compose it and the calculation of construction costs. In this article, the main methodologies applied to architectural decoration will be analyzed, along with a diachronic path of its development.
