Description

Life evolution is a selection of fossils arranged to tell the evolution of life and landscape in the Agno valley (north-eastern Italy) along almost 3,000,000 years. They are part of the historical collection “Domenico Dal Lago”, consisting of more than 12,000 (mainly) fossil specimens, donated in 1929 by Domenico Dal Lago himself to the Valdagno Municipality. Unfortunately the original Dal Lago's catolgue was lost, but some specimens have data regarding collection locality.

Project Data

ITINERIS is coordinated by the CNR (National Research Council). It started in November 2022, and during 30 (+6) months will carry out an ensemble of cross-disciplinary actions across the different environmental sub-domains, with the main aim to build the network of the Italian environmental Research Infrastructures, connect it to the user community and establish access, trough the ITINERIS HUB, to the vast array of knowledge, data, analytical tools, and service produced by the participating RIs.
