Abstract

During the last decade, the archaeology of the twentieth century has proved to be an innovative and increasingly important field within the discipline. In particular, the archaeology of conflict has enjoyed a remarkable development. This kind of research understands conflict sensu lato: war, civil conflict, class struggle, genocide, revolutions, political repression, prisons, and colonialism are some of the topics studied by the subdiscipline. In this article, we intend to show the possibilities of the archaeology of contemporary conflict through the study of the Italian remains in the frontier between Sudan and Ethiopia (19361941) that we have had the opportunity to study in the framework of a project developed since 2001 by the Department of Prehistory of the Complutense University of Madrid.
