Report To proceed with the documentation of the finds from the archaeological excavation of the 'Making Landscapes' project at the site of Grutti Acqua, which represents a great part of my thesis, I was able to spend 4 weeks in Sardinia. The finds are stored in the local archive of the Superintendencies in Sant'Antioco and were accessible with the permission of the responsible superintendent. Aside from the documentation of the material, the time spent on site gave me the opportunity to present my work to our local partners, the cultural association 'ARCI Il Calderone APS' and advance the plans for future fieldwork. Meanwhile, the greatest advantage for my further studies was to have the time to meet the local archaeologists working in the area and on similar topics in Sardinia, which is usually very hard during the fieldwork in the summer.
