His main lines of research focus on the study of Phoenician-Punic military architecture and poliorcetic, its influence on the indigenous fortifications of the central-western Mediterranean from the late Bronze Age to its survival in the Roman-Republican period, the fortification processes and colonization identified in each region (North Africa, Sicily, Sardinia and Iberia) during protohistory, as well as the archeology of the conflict and the historical processes that led to armed confrontations based on siege warfare.
