<abstract>
<p>During archaeological field work a huge amount of data is collected, processed and elaborated for further studies and scientific
publications. However, access and communication of linked data; associated tools for interrogation, analysis and sharing are often
limited at the first stage of the archaeological research, mainly due to issues related to IPR. Information is often released months if not
years after the fieldwork. Nowadays great deal of archaeological data is ‘born digital’ in the field or lab. This means databases, pictures
and 3D models of finds and excavation contexts could be available for public communication and sharing. Researchers usually restrict
access to their data to a small group of people. It follows that data sharing is not so widespread among archaeologists, and dissemination
of research is still mostly based on traditional pre-digital means like scientific papers, journal articles and books. This project has
implemented a web approach for sharing and communication purposes, exploiting mainly open source technologies which allow a high
level of interactivity. The case study presented is the newly Mithraeum excavated in Ostia Antica archaeological site in the framework
of the Ostia Marina Project.</p>
