Scholar's name to inner cover Mark Possanza. DJ has some tears and staining. Dustjacket is protected in mylar. ; Ostia an ancient town on the coast facing the Tyrrhenian Sea in Latium Italy was the harbour of ancient Rome and perhaps its first colonia. Located at the mouth of the River Tiber Ostia was said to have been founded by Ancus Marcius one of the kings of Rome in the 7th century BC. However the most ancient archaeological remains so far discovered are no earlier than the 4th century BC and the most ancient buildings currently visible are from the 3rd century BC notably the Castrum military camp and of a slightly later date the Capitolium temple of Jupiter Juno and Minerva. The opus quadratum walls of the original castrum at Ostia provide important evidence for the building techniques that were employed in Roman urbanism during the period of the Middle Republic. Although Ostia was probably founded for the sole purpose of military defence — since through the Tiber's mouths armies could eventually reach Rome by water — in time the port became a commercial harbour and a very important one too. Many of the goods that Rome received from its colonies and provinces passed through Ostia. In this role Ostia soon replaced Pozzuoli. ; 1.54 x 9.51 x 6.45 Inches; 598 pages .

‎Morris, Ian‎

‎DEATH-RITUAL AND SOCIAL STRUCTURE IN CLASSICAL ANTIQUITY‎

‎Cambridge University Press. Near Fine. 1992. Softcover. 0521376114 . Scholar's name to ffep Bonnie Maclachlan née Ward. ; In this innovative book Dr Morris seeks to show the many ways in which the excavated remains of burials can and should be a major source of evidence for social historians of the ancient Graeco-Roman world. Burials have a far wider geographical and social range than the surviving literary texts which were mainly written for a small elite. They provide us with unique insights into how Greeks and Romans constituted and interpreted their own communities. In particular burials enable the historian to study social change. Ian Morris illustrates the great potential of the material in these respects with examples drawn from societies as diverse in time space and political context as archaic Rhodes classical Athens early imperial Rome and the last days of the western Roman empire.1. The anthropology of a dead world 2. 'Mos Romanus': cremation and inhumation in the Roman empire 3. 'Dem bones': skeletal remains 4. Taking it with you: grave-goods and Athenian democracy 5. Monuments to the dead: display and wealth in classical Greece 6. Famous last words: the inscribed tombstone 7. At the bottom of the graves: an example of analysis ; Key Themes in Ancient History .
