lean out on this sea. In our country the restauration and the valorization of historical contexts and ancient structures of
Roman and pre-Roman epoches could easily write a new chapter in the history of the contemporary thermal baths. The retraining

of a sector of cultural tourism, the arheotourism, that particularly in Italy represents a resources for local development in
gifted territories. In the speech three cases of Italian archaeological sites will be introduced. In these sites a thermal complex,
used in the antiquity age, constitutes a test for the verifi cation of the so-called best practices solicited in the most recent
Conventios of the Unesco. There will be introduced in synthesis the principal steps of a search on the three thermal poles of
Fordongianus (Thermae of Traiano imperor) in the upper Oristano (Sardinia), of the Taurine Thermae of Civitavecchia
(upper Lazio) and the Thermae of St. Calogero in the island of Lipari (Eolie Islands).
