This project is developed in the MPA Gaiola Underwater Park and its
surrounding areas, located in the densely populated Naples urban area. This small MPA is located in coastal context for whom there are not scientific data available. In order to better manage the resources of the MPA is therefore necessary to increase the level of knowledge of the areas immediately surrounding the MPA itself. This project is aimed to
acquire environmental and socio-economic data in order to analyze in an integrated way all the aspect of the territory with the production of an integrated geodatabase that could be used by manager authority as a tool for developing an Integrated Coastal management Plan.

The study area is the coastal stretch, along the coast of Posillipo, in the Bay of Naples, from the Marechiaro village to the Trentaremi Bay into the Marine Protected Area (MPA) “Gaiola Underwater Park” (D.I. 7/8/2002). The interaction between elements of natural erosion, bradyseismic movements and massive anthropic overhaul of tuff sides, happened in different historical periods, is what most characterizes the current coastal geomorphology of the area. As part of a project aimed to study and exploitation of natural and historical-archaeological resources of the MPA that the Centro Studi Interdisciplinari Gaiola onlus is carrying out in agreement with the Soprintendenza Archeologica di Napoli e Caserta (MPA manager), in this work has been concentrated on the analysis of many coastal caves in the area. After a first phase of census and relief map showing caves, the second phase was devoted to geo-archaeologycal analysis of caves found most interesting and their ecological and biological characterization.

Nel presente lavoro si è voluto incrementare le conoscenze in campo geoarcheologico sulla fascia costiera di Posillipo nel Golfo di Napoli ed in particolare sull’area attualmente interessata dall’istituzione dell’Area Marina Protetta Parco Sommerso di Gaiola. In questo tratto di costa vi è una notevole concentrazione di strutture archeologiche di epoca romana, molte delle quali attualmente sommerse o semisommerse, anche a causa di locali fenomeni vulcano-tettonici (bradisismo) che interessano ancora oggi l’intera area dei Campi Flegrei, di cui fa parte la collina di Posillipo. Incrociando i dati emersi da indagini archeologiche sulle strutture sommerse con quelli desunti da analisi gemorfologiche si sono potute formulare nuove ipotesi sulla variazione relativa del livello del mare (VRLM) in tale area dall’epoca romana ad oggi. Data la scarsità di dati bibliografici, la prima fase dello studio è stata dedicata al rilievo e mappatura delle strutture archeologiche sommerse e delle cavità costiere presenti. Di grande interesse per la determinazione della VRLM si èdimostrata la presenza di markers archeologici come approdi, cave e peschiere.
