Abstract
This chapter delves the concept of the multi-layered city. According to the stratigraphic method in archaeology, the city as complex cultural good is the result of the stratification of uses. The study of the context is of the utmost importance to urban planning and cultural heritage conservation. Building process of historic city and territory can be better investigated and understood through the use of topographic method. Based on historic topography, it helps to analyze the consequences of the juxtaposition of a monument in a territory. Urban planning should use archaeological knowledge and topographic method to interpret the marks of the urban transformation through the reading and the knowledge of city’s form and historic human presence that shape historic-morphological identity of places.
