‎Hoards from the European Bronze and Iron Ages Current Research and New Perspectives‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2025 paperback, Pages: 175 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm,Illustrations:42 b/w, 72 col., 6 tables b/w., 17 maps b/w, 3 maps color. Language(s):English. *new. ISBN 9782503607528.‎

‎Hoards are among the most enigmatic of archaeological finds. The term ?hoard? itself has been applied to different assemblages across space and time, from the Stone Age into the modern era, with an inventory that typically includes artefacts made of valuable raw materials, to which significant symbolic meanings can also be assigned. Archaeologists have been trying to understand this phenomenon for much of the last century, sometimes emphasizing the universal nature of hoards, but more typically focusing on specific regions, chronologies, and finds. They have, for the most part, used results derived from typolo-chronological methods. Contemporary archaeology has, however, developed a broad spectrum of paradigms and methods, and hoardresearch in the twenty-first century draws on an increasingly wide range of approaches. This volume presents examples of research that make use of these multi-faceted approaches through a focus on European hoards of metal objects dating to the Bronze and Iron Ages. The contributors to this volume make use of diverse methods, among them archaeometallurgical analyses, studies of use- and production-wear, destruction patterns, and landscape archaeology, but together, their common denominator is the search for a methodological toolkit that will allow researchers to better understand the phenomenon of hoard-deposition more broadly.‎

‎Boven het maaiveld 25 jaar Archeologische vondsten‎

‎Leiden, Sidestone Press, 2025 softcover, 150 pagina's afbeeldingen, 28x21cm *nieuw. ISBN 9789464263565.‎

‎De afgelopen 25 jaar (2000-2025) heeft archeologisch onderzoek in Nederland een grote vlucht genomen, met name door nieuwe wetgeving. Er zijn in deze periode naar schatting zo?n 3000 grotere en kleinere opgravingen gedaan, die een veelvoud hiervan aan resultaten hebben opgeleverd. Honderdduizenden vondsten zijn letterlijk ?boven het maaiveld? gekomen. Met ?Boven het maaiveld? toont het Rijksmuseum van Oudheden een staalkaart van de Nederlandse en de Caribische archeologie. Maar liefst 61 auteurs die tot het archeologische werkveld behoren, vertellen wat de afgelopen 25 jaar aan kenniswinst heeft opgeleverd. Ze verhalen over wat hun onderzoeken bijzonder en interessant maakt en welke nieuwe zienswijzen en ontdekkingen er in deze periode zijn bijgekomen. Elke archeologische vindplaats en vondst heeft zijn eigen betekenis of waarde. Een vondst kan een wetenschappelijk of historisch belang hebben, maar ook een ander perspectief bieden. Daarbij gaat het over meer dan het feitelijke archeologische verhaal van de vondsten en vindplaatsen die in de bodem of onder water zijn aangetroffen. Het gaat met name om de waarde van de vondsten. Waarom zijn ze van belang, interessant of een essenti le bijdrage aan onze geschiedenis? Ge nspireerd op verhalen, wetenschappelijke onderzoeken, kenniswinst en emoties die achter een vondst schuilgaan, wordt in dit boek een rijke archeologische ?schatkist? geopend.‎

‎Cuneiform Texts in The Metropolitan Museum of Art. Volume I: Tablets, Cones, and Bricks of the Third and Second Millennia B.C.‎

‎Turnhout, Brepols, 1988 Cloth binding with dustjacket, 408 pages, 29 x 22.5 cm, english text. *Fine condition. . ISBN 0870994956.‎

‎This book is the initial publication in a four-volume series on the collection of cuneiform tablets and inscriptions in the Metropolitan Museum's Department of Ancient Near Eastern Art. It is a scholarly study of objects acquired largely during the 1880s, when the Metropolitan became the first American museum to acquire a substantial number of cuneiform texts. Today the Museum's collection totals more than five hundred texts and fragments; the publication of these volumes will make these texts available in a manner that will instruct and inform as wide an audience as possible. Cuneiform Texts in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, Volume I: Tablets, Cones, and Bricks of the Third and Second Millennia B.C. presents 120 commercial texts, legal texts, and letters, along with cones and bricks, from ancient Mesopotamia. This material is offered in both transliteration and translation, with drawings and selected photographs of the tablets as well as descriptions, drawings, and photographs of the seal impressions appearing on them. Features of special interest in this volume include the presentation of Sumerian ledger-account translations in modern accounting formats; allocations for the royal family of the Sumerian king Sulgi of the Third Dynasty of Ur; an Old Babylonian military confrontation with the Kassites, as disclosed in correspondence; Old Assyrian correspondence involving smuggling, moth-eaten textile shipments, legal testimony, and a caravan report presented in both textual translation and modern-ledger format; as well as new collations and translations of Amarna-period royal correspondence. Ira Spar is the editor of the Museum's cuneiform-tablet project, with a distinguished international group of collaborators assisting in the preparation of the texts. Each scholar has prepared manuscripts within his respective field of expertise, and hand copies of the tablets and seal inscriptions have been drawn by Dr. Spar. The inclusion in this volume of a comprehensive catalogue of the seal impressions on the tablets and cases illustrates the Museum's interest in publishing these works of art in their original context. The seal impressions are presented with brief commentary together with photographs and scale drawings prepared by Holly Pittman, Associate Curator in the Department of Ancient Near Eastern Art at the Metropolitan Museum. The second volume of this series will contain the literary and scholastic texts from the second millennium B.C. to the first century A.D.; the third volume will present the administrative, commercial, and legal tablets from the first millennium B.C. A final short volume will contain all cuneiform inscriptions found on objects in the Museum's collections.‎

‎Paris, Picard, 2016 Couverture reliee sous jaquette, 434 pages, 28.5 x 23 cm, Fran ais. *Neuf. ISBN 9782708410077.‎

‎La sculpture hell nistique fascine par sa richesse et sa diversit qui sont le reflet d?une histoire faite d? changes dans un monde largi par la conqu te d?Alexandre : l?horizon g ographique se d place au loin et l?art s?ouvre de nouveaux effets et de nouveaux publics. Dans cette p riode qui va de la mort d?Alexandre en 323 la bataille d?Actium en 31 il est difficile d?inscrire la complexit artistique dans un sch ma lin aire. Pour d gager des lignes de force, il faut d?abord comprendre les principales formes qu?a prises la sculpture hell nistique, dont la situation est bien diff rente de celle de la sculpture classique : il subsiste beaucoup d?originaux, mais souvent bien difficiles dater, et l?interpr tation des copies romaines est aussi d licate. Il fallait donc s?interroger sur la naissance et le d veloppement de la notion m me de sculpture hell nistique en abordant la question par l?histoire de la r ception pour retrouver la fra cheur de l?homme de la Renaissance qui d couvrait des antiques Rome dont il avait des notions par les textes antiques et dont la vision mod le encore notre propre perception de l?art hell nistique. On saisit l?importance d?analyser aussi le regard romain sur l?art hell nistique, qui est tributaire d? crits d?histoire de l?art plus anciens, dont ne subsistent que des bribes : l?art hell nistique c? tait la nouveaut , la nature, la spontan it , la v rit , nous disent ces textes. Et les images le confirment tout en appelant un traitement distinct de l?analyse litt raire. Il faut donc se plonger dans une documentation elle-m me en partie renouvel e par des d couvertes r centes pour cerner au plus pr s les caract res d?un art qui pr ne la vari t et qui veut toucher l?individu. Pour comprendre ces sculptures et cerner leur action il faut les mettre en contexte, bien concr tement autant que possible : c?est ainsi que l? tude des fonctions et des th mes am ne saisir les m canismes du dynamisme artistique et les ressorts de l? motion.‎

‎Trophies of Victory: Public Building in Periklean Athens‎

‎Princeton, Princeton University Press, 2016 Softcover, 496 pages, 28 x 21.5 cm. English text. *as new. ISBN 9780691170572.‎

‎The Greek military victories at Marathon, Salamis, and Plataia during the Persian Wars profoundly shaped fifth-century politics and culture. By long tradition, the victors commemorated their deliverance by dedicating thank-offerings in the sanctuaries of their gods, and the Athenians erected no fewer than ten new temples and other buildings. Because these buildings were all at some stage of construction during the political ascendency of Perikles, in the third quarter of the fifth century, modern writers refer to them collectively as the Periklean building program. In Trophies of Victory, T. Leslie Shear, Jr., who directed archaeological excavations at the Athenian Agora for more than twenty-five years, provides the first comprehensive account of the Periklean buildings as a group. This richly illustrated book examines each building in detail, including its archaeological reconstruction, architectural design, sculptural decoration, chronology, and construction history. Shear emphasizes the Parthenon?s revolutionary features and how they influenced smaller contemporary temples. He examines inscriptions that show how every aspect of public works was strictly controlled by the Athenian Assembly. In the case of the buildings on the Acropolis and the Telesterion at Eleusis, he looks at accounts of their overseers, which illuminate the administration, financing, and organization of public works. Throughout, the book provides new details about how the Periklean buildings proclaimed Athenian military prowess, aggrandized the city?s cults and festivals, and laid claim to its religious and cultural primacy in the Greek world. T. Leslie Shear, Jr., is professor emeritus of classical archaeology at Princeton University. From 1968 to 1994, he was director of archaeological excavations in the Athenian Agora, working under the auspices of the American School of Classical Studies at Athens. He is the author of Kallias of Sphettos and the Revolution of Athens in 286 B.C.‎

‎This volume presents contributions by leading scholars on various topics and aspects of Islamic Archaeology, a discipline which has recently seen the development of exciting new approaches to the study of the material culture of the Muslim world. This material culture was produced by and/or for Muslims, as well as by and/or for non-Muslims living under Islamic rule from the 7th century onward, in an expanding and ultimately vast area reaching from southern Europe to West Asia. The contributions in this book focus on Jordan, Oman, Spain, Turkey, Lebanon, as well as Israel, and cover a timespan from the 7th century through the Mamluk period to the early 20th century. They highlight the archaeology of large Islamic centers in the past, but also of the material culture in smaller sites and peripheral regions. Special emphasis is paid to pottery as one of the main artifacts that carry information on past societies, but other finds and materials are discussed as well. The aspect of Islamic material culture which receives particular attention is ?production?, specifically the production of clay vessels, glaze, mercury, and crops. What unites the new approaches presented here is that Islam is understood as both a ?religion? and a framework for economic, cultural, and social networks and influence. In this perspective, the volume aims to offer students of Islamic archaeology, historians of Islam and archaeologists of different disciplines a glimpse of the state-of-the-art in current Islamic Archaeology TABLE OF CONTENTS JOANITA VROOM (Series Editor) Preface HAGIT NOL & JOANITA VROOM (Volume Editors) Introduction: Current trends in Islamic Archaeology THEORY AND POTTERY JOS CRIST BAL CARVAJAL L PEZ Islamization and ceramics: Assembling change and Con-Text BETHANY J.

‎From the Chalcolithic onwards, the culture and society of Sumer flourished along the banks of the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers, with communities living close to the ancient shoreline in an environment that was closely linked to the exploitation of fluvial systems, the sea, and the unique marshlands of the area. This volume gathers together research first presented as part of a workshop, entitled Sumer and the Sea: Deltas, Shoreline, and Urban Water Management in 3rd Millennium Mesopotamia, to explore the interaction between Sumerians and their water-dominated environment. The chapters gathered here offer updates on methodologies and the most recent research from the field to provide new understanding and fresh insights into how the Sumerians adapted to the world in which they lived.

‎Landscape archaeology has, in recent years, expanded as a discipline to include various aspects of human-environment interactions in the past. In line with this trend, this volume offers a comprehensive perspective on three topics: theoretical and textual approaches to landscape, which provides an important framework for interdisciplinary research; the use of land and resources, which, while a popular topic in Southwest Asian archaeology, remains relatively understudied in connection to ancient technologies; and human impact on the highlands. The contributions gathered in this volume cover topics as diverse as agricultural practices, metallurgy, trade, and environmental research, and draw together evidence from both textual and material evidence to shed light on different places and periods from the Bronze Age through to the Roman era. Together, these varied case studies offer new insights into how different methods can be utilized to assess unique patterns in human-environment interactions in Southwest Asia.

‎Common Wares of Sagalassos‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2000 softcover Pages: 350 pages, Size:210 x 295 mm, Language :English . ISBN 9782503507972.‎

‎By far the most common archaeological finds consist of potsherds. Although the study of ceramics started at an early date, discrepancies and lacunae are rife in this area of archaeological research. For the Roman period the so-called fine wares have always attracted more interest than the more utilitarian ceramics. Although this situation has been rectified to a large extent in the Roman west, the eastern part of the empire remains by and large terra incognita, with most of the effort going into the study of fine wares. A second discrepancy exists between the coastal areas, which are rather well known, and the inland sites, specifically in Asia Minor. This book is one of the first attempts to rectify at least in part the existing situation by studying the common wares of the Roman town of Sagalassos in Pisidia from the first to the middle of the seventh century. The research on a previously unknown pottery manufacturing centre is placed within the wider framework of pottery research in the eastern Mediterranean, but contrary to most of the extant studies, the chosen approach is not limited to typology and chronology. Also included are a full mineralogical/chemical analysis of the different fabrics, both local and imported, while the full typological spectrum of wares and types is described, quantified and illustrated. As such it represents a major addition to the ceramics research concerning the eastern Roman empire.‎

‎A comprehensive look at ancient sculptures, wall paintings, vases, and more depicting the elderly in Greek and Roman society Some of the most vivid portraits in ancient art depict older members of society. In marble and bronze sculptures, on coins and painted vases, and in wall paintings and mosaics, elderly men and women are shown with the telltale signs of old age: wrinkles, white hair, sagging jowls, and stooped postures. This publication examines more than 300 of these vivid images to reveal perceptions?both positive and negative?about aging and the aged in Greek and Roman society. Seven chapters explore medium and form?including Greek grave reliefs, marble grave monuments in Roman Africa, and Roman sarcophagi?as well as subjects, from priests and priestesses to ancient kings of Athens, old gods, and satyrs. Grounded in the analysis of art, contemporary literature, and the archaeological record, this comprehensive volume is the first in English to explore how old age was presented in art from antiquity.‎

‎Studies in Hellenistic Architecture‎

‎Studies in Hellenistic Architecture is a detailed analysis of the development of the major building-types of the Hellenistic age ? the mid-fourth century B.C. to the time of the Roman conquest of the Eastern Mediterranean. In this meticulous work, Frederick E. Winter reveals how the architects of the period went beyond anything achieved by their Classical Greek predecessors, and how these impressive skills prepared the way for many of Rome's later architectural achievements. Geographically, the monuments included in this volume extend from Spain to Afghanistan and from Provence to North Africa. Winter discusses the architectural achievements of the various regional styles of the Eastern Mediterranean, and takes a detailed look at Hellenistic developments west of the Adriatic. While the interrelationship of these regional developments is often unclear, especially in cases where there are no explicit criteria for dating, Winter makes excellent use of the advance in scholarship over the past fifty to sixty years, offering the first real attempt at a synthesis of this vast subject. Studies in Hellenistic Architecture is an invaluable resource, containing a wealth of illustrations of the various types of Hellenistic building and the most comprehensive scholarship to date on the topic.‎
