‎Intercultural Encounters in Medieval Greece after 1204. The Evidence of Art and Material Culture‎

‎, Brepols, 2022 Paperback, 572 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:220 b/w, 35 col., Language: English. ISBN 9782503598505.‎

‎Summary Based on the evidence of artistic production and material culture this collective volume aims at exploring cross-cultural relations and interaction between Greeks and Latins in late medieval Greece in the aftermath of the Fourth Crusade. Fourteen essays discuss mostly new and unpublished archaeological and artistic material, including architecture, sculpture, wall-paintings and icons, pottery and other small finds, but also the evidence of music and poetry. Through the surviving material of these artistic activities this volume explores the way Byzantines and Latins lived side by side on the Greek mainland and the Aegean islands from the thirteenth to the fifteenth centuries and traces the mechanisms that led to the emergence of the new, composite world of the Latin East. Issues of identity, patronage, papal policy, the missionary activities of the Latin religious orders and the reactions and responses of the Byzantines are also re-considered, offering fresh insights into and a better understanding of the various manifestations of the interrelationship between the two ethnicities, confessions and cultures.

‎Summary Sympozjum Egejskie: Papers in Aegean Archaeology is a peer-reviewed sub-series of Warsaw Studies in Archaeology. It has been designed to fulfil the role of a platform for presenting and introducing a wide range of new research approaches and themes within the broad area of Aegean Archaeology. This is primarily achieved through showcasing the work of newcomers to the discipline, in other words those scholars who are currently at the beginning of their research career in the field of Aegean Archaeology, as well as scholars working outside the traditional university structure such as independent scholars, professional field archaeologists, museum curators, and conservators. It is our hope that this series will serve as a concise guide to the most recent research undertaken by early career scholars and the diverse and inspiring new trends in the archaeology of the Prehistoric Aegean, as well as shining a light on the future direction of the discipline.

‎Summary This book stems from a conference on Livy held at the University of Padua, on the occasion of the bimillenary of the historian's death (6-10 November 2017). The aim of the volume is to shed new light on lesser-known aspects of Livy's historiography, by approaching his work from a broad and interdisciplinary perspective. The papers, written by established scholars as well as by younger researchers, span from classical philology to ancient history and archaeology, also incorporating an in-depth investigation of Livy's reception through the centuries (from the Middle Ages to the Modern Era) and different fields of the humanities (philosophy, political thought, figurative arts).

‎Agricultural Landscapes of Al-Andalus, and the Aftermath of the Feudal Conquest‎

‎Summary This volume presents recent archaeological research on the agriculture and society of al-Andalus during the Middle Ages, especially from the perspective of 'hydraulic archaeology' ? an avenue of research developed by Spanish researchers which focuses on the analysis of irrigation systems created by Islamic colonists from the eighth century onwards. More recently, this research perspective has incorporated the analysis of other agricultural systems, such as dryland agriculture and pasturelands. All of these agricultural regimes are complementary in peasant-led subsistence agricultural systems. From a methodological perspective, this archaeological approach is highly innovative, and uses a wide range of techniques (aerial photography, cartographical analysis, field survey, archival research, and archaeological excavation) in order to outline the size and boundaries of cultivation and grazing areas, to define specific plots of land and the related road networks, and to identify other associated facilities, such as watermills. In connection with these topics, several issues are discussed: the earmarking of rural or urban farming areas for irrigation, draining, or dryland agriculture; the process of construction and the subsequent evolution of these farming areas; the transformations undergone by these areas after the feudal conquest; and, finally, the identification of pasturelands and the analysis of the evidence concerning their management.

‎Painted Tetrarchic Reliefs of Nicomedia. Uncovering the Colourful Life of Diocletian's Forgotten Capital‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Paperback, xx + 200 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:7 b/w, 255 col., 1 tables b/w., Language(s):English, Turkish. *new ISBN 9782503594781.‎

‎Summary This ground-breaking volume offers the first publication of a major new monument of Roman power in Asia Minor: sixty-six painted marble frieze panels from the city of Nicomedia with an excellent archaeological and architectural context from the Tetrarchic period. During the rule of Diocletian, Nicomedia was the centre of the Late Roman Empire in the east, and the reliefs of the frieze, which decorate an imperial complex built at this time, represent an astonishing combination of imperial, mythological, and agonistic scenes. The reliefs found in Nicomedia fill an important gap in our knowledge between the Severan and Constantinian periods, and provide the East Roman Empire with a defining monument that can be set beside ? and in striking counterpoint to ? the Arch of Constantine in Rome. Published here in full colour and fully documented, the Nicomedia Frieze is, in this hugely important scholarly monograph, brought to the public for the very first time.

‎Summary The Bayuda, although an arid desert located in modern-day Sudan, has nonetheless been inhabited, farmed, worshipped in, and fought over by humans from the Palaeolithic onwards. Yet despite the longevity of its human occupation, the region has only in recent years become the focus of more intensive scholarly research. This volume, the first in a series dedicated to exploring the archaeology and history of Northeast Africa, aims to build on this trend by drawing together the very latest archaeological research and data, and shedding light on how the Bayuda Desert and its environs were transformed into a cultural landscape. The contributions gathered here introduce, examine, and (re)assess a number of important issues, many of which are new in the archaeology of Nubia, as well as considering them against a broader comparative background. From climate change over the past millennia - and its far-reaching consequences in the present - through to an examination of the cultural influences of the Kingdom of Kerma, and from analysis of funeral rites through to interpretations of rock art, forgotten trade routes, and the commerce in cattle and slaves, this insightful volume offers a wealth of new information into the history of ancient Nubia.

‎Material Exchanges in Medieval and Early Modern Europe. Archaeological Perspectives‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 264 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:26 b/w, 17 col., 2 tables b/w., 15 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503593999.‎

‎Summary The study of the movement of 'things' - the exchange of objects as gifts or through trade, the itineraries that they followed when on the move, and their changing importance from location to location - can offer unique insights into our understanding of past societies; and archaeology plays a vital role in allowing such movements to be traced. Nonetheless the circulation of objects across time, and between peoples and places, has long been neglected as a field of research in its own right. This volume aims to address this gap in scholarship by drawing on recent archaeological research to provide a detailed study of the moment of objects across Europe in the late medieval and early modern period. The contributions gathered here trace the interactions between peoples, ideas, and objects in order to explore the impact of movement both on the material things themselves, and on the people who manufactured, exchanged, or used such goods. The volume draws on a wide range of archaeological evidence to explore subjects as varied as production and transport, modes of trade, the connections between trade and religion, and the emotional connections between things and people. Together, they offer a pioneering approach to our understanding of objects and their movement in the past. TABLE OF CONTENTS List of Illustrations Introduction - SERGIO ESCRIBANO-RUIZ, MAGDALENA E.

‎Hellenistic Sealings & Archives. Proceedings of The Edfu Connection, an international conference‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Paperback, xxxvi + 260 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:367 b/w, 8 col., 9 tables b/w., 8 maps b/w, Language: English. ISBN 9782503591278.‎

‎Summary Ancient seal impressions that were once employed to seal a variety of objects, in particular different kinds of documents, can offer a wealth of information not only about iconography, but also about the dissemination of ideas and beliefs. Their usage provides evidence about the continuation, transformation, and mutual influences that impacted upon local traditions, as well as shed light on administrative and bureaucratic practices. Drawing together in-depth contributions by specialists in the field, this timely volume - the first of its kind in twenty-five years - offers new insights into seals and their importance during the relatively understudied Hellenistic period (c. 325-25 BCE), as well as contextualizing this subject through a focus on related fields such as glyptics and numismatics. The twelve chapters included here explore the importance of hoards, among them those from Delos, Doliche, Edfu, Kedesh, Pistiros, Seleucia-on-the-Tigris, Selinunte, and Uruk, and examine themes that range from the persistence of pharaonic imagery on Ptolemaic sealings and Greek influence on Sicilian seals, to the survival of Mesopotamian traditions on Parthian clay tablets and the use of Hellenistic iconography on Bactrian finger rings. Through this multifaceted approach, this volume is able to elucidate the daily realities of social, public, and private archival practices that went beyond the political and elite levels of life, and to illuminate aspects of Hellenistic history that have long remained obscure or inaccessible.

‎Summary Archaeological periodization schemes of material culture development in Northern Mesopotamia from 7th to 5th centuries BCE traditionally refer to the sequence of dynasties. In particular, they highlight historical events related to distinguished members of the royal houses of the Sargonids, Urartians, Medes, Teispids, and Achaemenids. However, whereas the repercussions these Iron Age empires had on the history of the Near East are undeniable, the impact they had on the material culture and its development is not always equally tangible in the archaeological findings. The latter are not infrequently characterized by continuity rather than by incisive changes, as recent studies and re-evaluations of key sites in Syria, Iraq, Iran and Armenia show. This publication uses case studies to address problems that arises when the archaeological (relative concept) and historical (absolute concept) methodology use different intrinsic values of time to reconstruct history and to understand cultural material development. Arch ologische Periodisierungsschemata der materiellen Kulturentwicklung Nordmesopotamiens in der Zeit vom 7. bis 5. Jahrhundert v. Chr. orientieren sich traditionell an historische Z suren, die mit der Abfolge von Herrschaftsdynastien wie den Sargoniden, Urart ern, Medern, Teispiden und Ach meniden verbunden sind. Gleichwohl die Bedeutung dieser eisenzeitlichen Herrscherh user auf die politische Geschichte Vorderasiens unbestreitbar ist, ist ihr Einfluss auf die materielle Kulturentwicklung nicht im gleichen Ma e bestimmbar. Letztere ist n mlich fter durch Kontinuit t als durch einschneidende Ver nderungen gepr gt, wie rezente Untersuchungen und Neubewertungen wichtiger arch ologischer Befunde in Syrien, Irak, Iran und Armenien aufgezeigt haben. Der vorliegende Band weist anhand von Fallbeispielen auf die Problematik hin, die bei abweichenden Bedeutungszuweisungen der Dimension Zeit in arch ologischen (relatives Konzept) und historischen (absolutes Konzept) Betrachtungsweisen f r die Rekonstruktion der Geschichte und der Entwicklung der materiellen Kultur auftreten k nnen.

‎Excavating Palmyra. Harald Ingholt's Excavation Diaries: A Transcript, Translation, and Commentary‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 2 vols, 1846 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:22 b/w, 1027 col., 2 maps color, Language: English . ISBN 9782503595313.‎

‎Summary When the Danish archaeologist Harald Ingholt conducted his ground-breaking excavations of Palmyra in the 1920s and 1930s, during which time he investigated several grave monuments and carried out the first observations of Palmyra's famous funerary portraits, he kept detailed diaries of his work. For a long time, these have been stored at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen together with the extensive Ingholt Archive, while further photographs and notes on Palmyrene sculpture have been kept with Ingholt's family in the United States. Now this material and Ingholt's diaries, written primarily in Danish, have for the first time been transcribed and translated into English with a full commentary written by Professor Rubina Raja, Dr Julia Steding, and Dr Jean-Baptiste Yon, in order to make these unique texts available to a wider public. The diaries contain a wealth of information on Palmyrene sculpture, grave complexes, and inscriptions from the city, as well as offering previously unpublished details into Ingholt's excavations, and his time in the field that will provide essential new insights for scholars working on Palmyra.

‎Summary The Decapolis city of Jerash has long attracted attention from travellers and scholars, due both to the longevity of the site and the remarkable finds uncovered during successive phases of excavation that have taken place from 1902 onwards. Between 2011 and 2016, a Danish-German team, led by the universities of Aarhus and M nster, focused their attention on the Northwest Quarter of Jerash - the highest point within the walled city - and this volume is the third in a series of books presenting the team's final results. The contributions gathered together in this volume provide an in-depth analysis of the glass finds, the lamps, and the iconography of the Jerash bowls discovered in the Northwest Quarter during the excavations. Together, these chapters provide both general overviews and more detailed insights into these important groups of material evidence, and also examine their stratigraphic contextualization and chronological spread across the centuries.

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2021 Hardback, iv + 502 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Illustrations:50 b/w, 125 col., 30 tables b/w., Language: English. ISBN 9781909400535.‎

‎Summary The Santa Maria Antiqua Complex in the Forum in Rome was probably established at the foot of the Palatine Hill in the 6th century. Over the following 600 years it was decorated with a unique series of frescoes bearing evidence of imperial, papal and monastic influences. Abandoned in the 9th century, limited use probably continued up to the 11th century. By the 17th century the complex was completely buried under the rising floor of the Forum. Excavations in 1900 exposed a largely intact complex containing hundreds of 6th - 11th century frescoes, in some places over four layers deep and a unique Chapel of Medical Saints which suggests this was also an incubation site. The English Press hailed the site as the 'Sistine Chapel of the Ninth century'. Lavish illustrations of these frescoes, following recent restoration, make this book an indispensible resource, not only for those working on the church but also for those interested in contemporaneous material in medieval sites especially in Rome, Europe and Byzantium. This monograph contains the proceedings of an International Conference held at the British School at Rome on 4-6 December, 2013. It reports results of the major project of preservation and research led by the Soprintendenza and carried out over the last 12 years on the fabric of the church, its frescoes, floor, wall and ceiling mosaics, its drainage and infrastructure. Much of the restoration was funded by the World Monuments Fund. The conference also marked the 75th anniversary of the death of Gordon Rushforth, the first Director of the British School at Rome and the author of one of the earliest key papers on the S. Maria Antiqua site.

‎Summary This fourth volume in a collection based on the biennial interdisciplinary meetings held in K ltepe, ancient Kane?, draws together sixteen contributions that explore the archaeology and history of this site, with the ongoing aim of taking a holistic approach to revitalizing this important early Anatolian cultural centre. The papers gathered here present both current research and recent important results derived from research in K ltepe and its wider surroundings through four key thematic strands: cultural exchanges between this site and its environs; material culture; sealings, writings, and history; comparisons with other sites across Central Anatolia. Through this approach, this volume is able to explore not only the historical importance of K ltepe, but also to highlight the settlement's future importance as a pilot site for interdisciplinary studies, thanks to its unique textual and archaeological data.

‎Summary This volume, the first in a new series dedicated to the archaeological and historical landscapes of central Mediterranean Italy, aims to offer a fresh and dynamic new approach to our understanding of central-southern maritime Tuscany during the Roman period. Drawing on research that was initially presented at the first International Mediterranean Tuscan Conference (MediTo) held in Paganico (Grosseto, Italy) in June 2018, and supported by invited papers from other experts in the field, this collection of essays offers the most up-to-date research into Roman and Late Antique landscapes within Tuscany and its broader Mediterranean context, as well as the political, economic, and social networks that developed in this area during the Classical Period. Ultimately, what emerges from this in-depth study of river valleys, urban centres, and coastal settlements is an understanding of a dynamic Roman territory of cities and villages, villas and sanctuaries, minor sites, and manufacturing districts in which the local population fought to establish and maintain connections with the wider Mediterranean.

‎Corpse in the Middle Ages: Embalming, Cremating, and the Cultural Construction of the Dead Body‎

‎, Brepols - Harvey Miller, 2021 Hardback, vi + 780 pages, Size:220 x 280 mm, Language(s):English, Latin. ISBN 9781909400870.‎

‎Summary To what extent are the dead truly dead? In medieval society, corpses were assigned special functions and meanings in several different ways. They were still present in the daily life of the family of the deceased, and could even play active roles in the life of the community. Taking the materiality of death as a point of departure, this book comprehensively examines the conservation, burial and destruction of the corpse in its specific historical context. A complex and ambivalent treatment of the dead body emerges, one which necessarily confronts established modern perspectives on death. New scientific methods have enabled archaeologists to understand the remains of the dead as valuable source material. This book contextualizes the resulting insights for the first time in an interdisciplinary framework, considering their place in the broader picture drawn by the written sources of this period, ranging from canon law and hagiography to medieval literature and historiography. It soon becomes obvious that the dead body is more than a physical object, since its existence only becomes relevant in the cultural setting it is perceived in. In analogy to the findings for the living body in gender studies, the corpse too, can best be understood as constructed. Ultimately, the dead body is shaped by society, i.e. the living. This book examines the mechanisms by which this cultural construction of the body took place in medieval Europe. The result is a fascinating story that leads deep into medieval theories and social practices, into the discourses of the time and the daily life experiences during this epoch.

‎Late Antique Metalware. The Production of Copper-Alloy Vessels between the 4th and 8th Centuries. The Benaki Museum Collection and Related Material‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Paperback, 410 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:250 col., 5 tables b/w., Languages: English, Greek, French. ISBN 9782503569413.‎

‎Summary The book examines the fourth- to eighth-century copper alloy wares in the Benaki Museum, using them as the basis on which a wider debate about the production, circulation and use of copper vessels in Late Antiquity can be built. It is an attempt at a holistic approach to this rich but as yet little studied material. Apart from the necessary typology and dating, the study also includes systematic discussion of questions regarding the alloys used in the manufacture of the copperwares and the techniques employed in their production and decoration. The study of primary sources provided evidence about the late Roman and Medieval Greek terminology associated with each group of objects, as well as interesting information about the distribution of various types of vessels, the context in which they were used and the value their owners placed on them, while also containing useful references to the coppersmiths themselves. Most of the Benaki copperwares were acquired on the Egyptian market and can be connected with the rich local production in the Late Roman and Early Islamic period. Yet the study of these artefacts showed that they have striking similarities with a wide range of archaeological material discovered over an extremely large geographical area, from the Eastern Mediterranean to Italy, Germany, Spain and the UK. The geographical spread of copper alloy wares that follow a parallel development in different parts of the empire and also appear almost contemporaneously in Western European burials reignites the debate on the production centres and subsequent modes of distribution of these artefacts. In turn these issues touch on the long-standing debate on the so-called 'Coptic bronzes' and the actual role of Egypt in the overall production of and trade in these articles in Late Antiquity.

‎Summary The Decapolis city of Jerash has long attracted attention from both travellers and scholars, due both to the longevity of the site, and the remarkable finds uncovered during successive phases of excavation that have taken place from 1902 onwards. Between 2011 and 2016, a Danish-German team, led by the universities of Aarhus and M nster, focused their attention on the Northwest Quarter of Jerash - the highest point within the walled city - and this volume is the second in a series of books presenting the team's final results. This volume offers an in-depth analysis of the coins and metal remains found in Jerash during the excavations. The contributions gathered here cover the small metal finds from the Northwest Quarter, as well as examining Greek, Roman, Byzantine, and Islamic coins.

‎Summary The opening of the borders of Albania in the 1990s stimulated an increased interest in its cultural heritage and led to extensive research, as well as archaeological investigations. These, however, have mainly concentrated within Albania's present-day borders and have lacked broader contextualization. Very recent excavations in Greece, which resulted from the construction of the new Ionia Odos highway, have, however brought to light unexpected and interesting material that changes our image of the monumental topography and the settlements in Epirus. New studies concerning Epirus and its broader connections during the early and later Ottoman periods provide a broader impression of the region and its relationships with the large economic centres of the West, as well as with the spiritual-religious and political centres of the Balkans.

‎Summary Was geschah in der Stadt Rom mit den republikanischen Tempelbauten w hrend der Kaiserzeit? Wie wurden diese (noch) genutzt? Welchen baulichen Ver nderungen unterlagen sie? Neue Akteure, ver nderte Machtverh ltnisse, eine ganze Stadt im Wandel, zunehmend begrenzter Raum, wegfallende Sichtachsen, letztendlich aber auch neue Kulte sowie neue Formen von Kultbauten und -praktiken bestimmen den Rahmen, vor dem auch das Fortbestehen der bereits in republikanischer Zeit vorhandenen Heiligt mer betrachtet werden muss. Dabei zeichnet sich ein Bild ihrer Nutzungsweisen und Funktionen, das kaum heterogener sein k nnte, sich bei n herer Betrachtung jedoch sinnvoll zu einem Ganzen verbindet. Gepr gt von Pragmatismus und dem Repr sentationswillen verschiedener Akteure spiegelt sich im unterschiedlichen Umgang mit den Heiligt mern die r umliche und funktionale Segmentierung der kaiserzeitlichen Stadt eindrucksvoll wider. Dabei steht weit mehr als die Rekonstruktion der bisher h ufig vernachl ssigten kaiserzeitlichen Phasen ausgew hlter Heiligt mer im Vordergrund. Es sind die Einbettung der Architekturen und R ume dieser St tten in das urbane Umfeld, die Konzeption st dtischen Raumes und insbesondere auch die Frage, welche Rolle den ?alten' Kulten in einer ?neuen' Stadt beigemessen wurde, die das Augenmerk dieses Buches bilden.

‎Summary At a time when we reflect intensively on the issue of social cohesion, on the influence of architecture in lifestyles, and on relationships between neighbourhoods within large modern cities, this book aims to approach the study of "inhabiting modes" in Roman urban dwellings. Drawing on concepts common to historical anthropology and incorporating evidence from multiple lines of research (archaeological, iconographic, textual, and others), this volume aims to contribute to the invigoration of a social history of ancient housing through new research projects, publications, and digital tools from both individual and collaborative efforts. This field of study is currently undergoing a period of disciplinary revitalization and this volume is an opportunity to present the most recent work and to conduct a dialogue in an interdisciplinary perspective.

‎chalkolithische Siedlung von Giricano am Oberen Tigris. Die Ausgrabungen in Giricano II‎

‎, Brepols, 2020 Paperback, xx + 206 pages, Size:216 x 280 mm, Illustrations:167 b/w, 58 tables b/w., 4 maps b/w, Languages: German, Turkish. ISBN 9782503575360.‎

‎Summary Die sp t-chalkolithischen Siedlungsschichten in Giricano vermitteln einen ununterbrochenen berblick ber die kulturelle Entwicklung im Tal des Oberen Tigris von der Obed-Zeit bis in die erste H lfte des 3. Jahrtausends v. Chr. Die materielle Kultur der noch in der Phase Late-Chalcolithic (LC) 1 gegr ndeten Siedlung zeigt, dass die bisher haupts chlich im heutigen Nordirak dokumentierte Kultur bis zum Fu des Taurus reichte. Kurz vor der Wende vom 4. zum 3. Jahrtausend v. Chr. erreichte die Siedlung in der Phase LC 5 den H hepunkt ihrer Entwicklung. Dieser ist durch ein monumentales Geb ude dokumentiert, das wahrscheinlich durch ein Erdbeben zerst rt wurde. Eine Nachbesiedlung in der so genannten Nineveh 5-Periode ist wesentlich kleiner, bevor der Fundort aufgegeben wurde. Die Darstellung folgt der Entwicklung der Architektur, der Keramik und der Kleinfunde. Sie wird durch eine Diskussion der Integration der Siedlung in die berregionale Kulturentwicklung erg nzt.‎
