Abstract/ Summary

Shane Harriman could never have predicted his research would earn an award or bring him to the mountains of northern Italy.

Raised in Orrington, Maine, Harriman has always had an affinity for the outdoors. After graduating from John Bapst Memorial High School in 2022, he chose to attend the University of Maine for its comfortable proximity to home and extensive history program. However, his time in Orono has led him away from the Maine woods and towards the search for lost history.

As a history major and anthropology minor, Harriman was looking for senior-year field research to round out his resume. He went to his professors for recommendations and they directed him towards STEMPA, an Italian-based research project whose name in English translates to Excavation, Remote Sensing, Study of Materials and Landscape of the Sette Comuni Plateau.
