The project maps limes infrastructure and studies archaeological finds, involving citizen scientists and volunteers. Advanced techniques, such as isotope analysis and environmental DNA, provide insights into ancient mobility, diet, and health. Additionally, it examines how the limes were reconstructed in later periods to shape national and European identities. By linking historical and modern perspectives on borders, C-Limes fosters dialogue, supports UNESCO World Heritage efforts, and informs public debates on borders and cultural interaction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h6 class=\"wp-block-heading\">[NL}<\/h6>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-28f84493 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>Tijdsduur: juni 2021- mei 2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instelling: Universiteit Utrecht <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/c-limes.nl\/\">Meer informatie<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nwo.nl\/projecten\/nwa129219364\">Constructing the Limes (C-Limes)<\/a><\/em> onderzoekt de Nederrijnse limes, de grens van het Romeinse Rijk in Nederland, Duitsland en Belgi\u00eb, als een culturele en politieke constructie. Het project brengt de infrastructuur van de limes in kaart en bestudeert archeologische vondsten, waarbij burgerwetenschappers en vrijwilligers worden betrokken. Geavanceerde technieken, zoals isotopenanalyse en omgevings-DNA, geven inzicht in mobiliteit, voeding en gezondheid in de oudheid. Daarnaast wordt onderzocht hoe de limes in latere perioden werd gereconstrueerd om nationale en Europese identiteiten vorm te geven.
