Geomorphology and Cultural Heritage

The volume comprises some contributions concerning the relationships between geomorphology and the cultural elements of a specific territory. This cultural approach concerns the dialogue and cultural integration between humanistic and scientific disciplines and can be extended to all the fields of Earth Sciences, so introducing the concept of Cultural Geology.

Attached to the volume: the geomorphological map of the Upper Tagliole Valley (Modena Apennines, Northern Italy), the geotourist map of the Upper Tagliole Valley (Modena Apennines, Northern Italy), and the Carte des Géomorphisites de la région d'Ifrane - Azrou (Moyen Atlas, Maroc).
