Description
Life evolution is a selection of fossils arranged to tell the evolution of life and landscape in the Agno valley (north-eastern Italy) along almost 3,000,000 years. They are part of the historical collection “Domenico Dal Lago”, consisting of more than 12,000 (mainly) fossil specimens, donated in 1929 by Domenico Dal Lago himself to the Valdagno Municipality. Unfortunately the original Dal Lago's catolgue was lost, but some specimens have data regarding collection locality.
Purpose
This dataset is aimed to be part of a collective digitization effort carried out within a ITINERIS Project training course.

Project

ITINERIS - Italian Integrated Environmental Research Infrastructures System

Identifier: CUP B53C22002150006

Content: ITINERIS is coordinated by the CNR (National Research Council). It started in November 2022, and during 30 (+6) months will carry out an ensemble of cross-disciplinary actions across the different environmental sub-domains, with the main aim to build the network of the Italian environmental Research Infrastructures, connect it to the user community and establish access, trough the ITINERIS HUB, to the vast array of knowledge, data, analytical tools, and service produced by the participating RIs.

Funding: EU – Next Generation EU PNRR - Mission 4 “Education and Research” – Component 2: “From research to business” – Investment 3.1: “Fund for the realisation of an integrated system of research and innovation infrastructures”.
