Punjert, castello “perduto” dell’alta val Rosandra

Abstract

This research paper presents the archaeological park known as Punjert, located in the upper Rosandra Valley (territory of Slovenia, municipality of Hrpelje - Kozina), which consists of the remains of a small fortification or castle dating to the Medieval period. Through cartographic, bibliographic, on site (non-invasive) research and the analysis and processing of data collected from the Lidar system and GPR it has been possible to create a graphic rendering of the site and develop hypotheses on the construction date and purposes, with specific reference to the not too far away and previously researched Vichimberch castle.
