Anasazi Places: The Photographic Vision of William Current
xiii138 pages with photographs and index. Quarto 11 11 1/4" x 8 3/4" bound in red cloth with gilt lettering to spine. Foreword by Karen Sisheimer. First edition. Willaim Current's first photographic journey to the Southwest came late in his thirties but from that moment he would return again and again throughout his life to experience as if for the first time that magical part of the world. The power of the Anasazi aesthetic the beauty and drama of the sites in which they chose to build their dwellings the demanding difficult but harshly beautiful land unfailingly drew him back. To his eyes the lancscape of the Southwest and the architecture of the "ancient ones" were new and renewing. From the thousands of images Willaim Current made in a career that spanned nearly five decades his images of the Southwest are among his most compelling. Condition: "Damaged books" stamped to heal end pages corners bumped else a very good copy University of Texas Press hardcover

THE SANCTUARY OF HEMITHEA AT KASTABOS
Cambridge University Press. Fine in Very Good dust jacket. 1966. Hardcover. DJ is price-clipped. Dustjacket has minor shelfwear and rubbing. ; 23pp of photos 78 figures. "This is an account of the excavation of a Greek sanctuary in the south-west corner of the mainland of Asia Minor opposite Rhodes--once known as the Carian Chersonese. The excavations took place in 1959-1960. This is the first Greek temple of any size uncovered in that part of Asia Minor and the discovery of the site of Kastabos whose existence was known from book V of Diodorus' world history has entailed the re-siting of several ancient towns in the region. The sanctuary itself whose main buildings date from c. 300 B. C. was dedicated to the Goddess Hemithea. It adds to our knowledge of a special sort of Greek shrine which was popular in the early Hellenistic age and is a perfect instance of a religious gathering place designed for a short well attended festival. The excavations show that although it was an Ionic temple the style of the great contemporary temples in Ionia such as that at Ephesus has been modified and the design is somewhat similar in plan and proportion to that of the temple of Epidaurus. In particular the discovery of a decorative screen with little shrines round the temple area throws new light on Greek architectural complexes." ; 180 pages . Cambridge University Press hardcover

THE EPIGRAPHIC LANDSCAPE OF ROMAN ITALY
University of London Institute of Classical Studies. Very Good. 2000. Softcover. 0900587849 . Slight spine slant. Very minor shelfwear. ; Bulletin of the Institute of Classical Studies Supplement 73; 212 pages; With contributions from Edward Bispham Guy Bradley Alison E. Cooley Fay Glinister Valerie Hope Mark Pobjoy and Benet Salway. The Epigraphic Landscape presents a series of case-studies in which a new generation of scholars examines the significance of interpreting inscriptions in terms of their topographical context and physical appearance. Some chapters focus on a genre of inscription � honorific building and funerary � whilst others discuss a single text such as the Rapino Bronze and the album of Canusium. This approach reveals the contribution of inscribed monuments to the transformation of towns and countryside and the impact of Rome on the landscape of the rest of Italy. The integration of epigraphic literary archaeological and topographical sources suggests new ways of looking at Roman colonization in Umbria. The transformation of the epigraphic landscape of its surrounding region challenges current views on the date of Lavinium�s decline. Similar inscriptions from Puteoli provide a starting-point for exploring the activities of the super-�lite of Campania. By trying to reconstruct the motivations behind inscriptions several contributors reveal the subjectivity of these texts � such as the factors governing the appearance of gladiators� tombstones � and warn against adopting too literal an interpretation of these sources even if inscribed in stone. .
