Identification de formes karstiques de surface sur une représentation cartographique du Gran Sasso d’Italia du XVIe siècle (Abruzzes, Italie centrale)
Burri, Ezio
Abstract:
Identification of surface karst features on a XVIth century Gran Sasso d’Italia map (Abruzzes, Central Italy) - In August 1573, Francesco De Marchi climbed for the first time the Corno Grande, the highest Gran Sasso peak, which is the highest limestone massif of the Apennins. From this exploration, he let a detailed description that was published after his death in 1599. A map, where some karst features are clearly mentioned and particularly some small karst lakes illustrated this description. Some other karst features, such as the large Campo Imperatore polje are described. In the same time of this climb he also explored Grotta a Male, one of the main caves of the area and gave a scientific description of it.
