[it] Il contributo di seguito presentato illustra i risultati delle indagini archeologiche effettuate sugli elevati della chiesa dei Santi Sergio e Bacco nel villaggio di Umm as-Surab, Giordania settentrionale. L’edificio, ancora relativamente ben conservato, è considerato dalla letteratura specialistica come una tra le chiese più interessanti del sud Hawrān per alcune caratteristiche tecnico-strutturali, tra cui l’alta torre costruita sulla prothesis. L’ analisi dei resti materiali ci ha permesso di individuare una sequenza edilizia suddivisa in cinque periodi e di approfondire le dinamiche di cantiere. Ci siamo inoltre concentrati sull’individuazione delle principali tecniche costruttive (murature, aperture, archi e pilastri), che faranno parte di un più ampio Atlante Cronotipologico della regione dello Hawrān. Con questi nuovi dati abbiamo ulteriormente riflettuto sulle tipologie edilizie della torre e della chiesa, cercando di contribuire al dibattito corrente.
