ARCHAEOLOGY THEORY AND THE MIDDLE AGES
Duckworth Publishers. Fine. 2010. Softcover. 0715636898 . Duckworth Archaeology; 192 pages; This volume of collected essays is intended as a demonstration of the ways in which a theoretically informed archaeology significantly enhances our understanding of the early middle ages indeed of the past more generally. It begins from the premise that theory must be worked though in data abstract theorising conjures up only ahistorical pictures of the past and applies a consistent and contemporary body of theory broadly characterised as 'post-processual' in a series of case-studies. These essays which address some of the key issues in contemporary archaeology identity the appropriation/destruction of the past gift exchange object biographies the influence of our present on the construction of the past the impact of texts on past societies are linked by a series of discussions which serve both to update the arguments and to create a continuous and coherent narrative. The result is therefore much more than the sum of the parts and will be of interest not just to scholars of the early middle ages but to archaeologists and historians more generally. .

GREEK AND ROMAN ARTILLERY Historical Development
Oxford Clarendon Press. Very Good in Very Good- dust jacket. 1969. Hardcover. 0198142684 . Minor bump to one corner. Light foxing to top of textblock. Rubbing to DJ. Worn DJ corners with small tear to bottom corner 1cm. Very minor fraying to DJ ends. ; Defining a piece of artillery as "a relatively complex engine powered by springs of resilient material composed of several mechanical devices and designed to hurl bolts or shot over the longest possible range" Marsden presents a comprehensive account of the development and historical employment of ancient artillery from its invention in 399 BC to the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West c. AD 400. Among the many topics raised are the influence of the introduction of artillery on warfare the organisation of artillery by states and monarchs the obtaining of artificers and the training of artillerymen by ancient governments and the effects of artillery on the design of fortifications. The work is based on the Greek and Latin texts describing the construction of catapults ballistae and other machines translated in Greek and Roman Artillery: Technical Treatises also by Marsden. This book contains interpretations of five principal treatises which may be regarded as a unique group in the field of ancient applied mechanics. The evidence they provide enables Marsden to trace in considerable detail mechanical progress in the construction of Greek and Roman artillery over a period of five centuries and more. The texts presented here have been prepared from the texts critical apparatuses and comments of earlier scholars while Marsden's translations are new. Each major text and translation is followed by detailed notes with diagrams while the fragment of Heron's Cheiroballistra and shorter texts by Vegetius Procopius Ammianus and others in the final chapters are accompanied by introductions technical conclusions and notes on reconstructing the machines. The general introduction discusses dates and sources and the manuscript tradition of the Greek treatises on artillery. ; 218 pages; 14 plates at end. . Oxford Clarendon Press hardcover

LEGIO XX VALERIA VICTRIX Prosopography Archaeology and History
Archaeopress. Fine. 2006. Softcover. 1841719226 . British Archaeological Reports BAR International Series 1491; 287 pages; This study of legio XX Valeria Victrix combines a personal historical and archaeological approach to the study of the legion roughly the first four centuries after Christ as a whole. Epigraphic and historical evidence is presented for all those individuals known to have served with the Twentieth Legion in their various capacities. Sources are quoted with translation for each of these and significant details of the careers discussed. Further aspects of careers generally are considered at the end of the relevant sections. This corpus is supported by a number of indices of nomenclature origins ranks service and posts held in other units etc. as well as an index of primary sources. Other inscriptions attesting to the presence of the Twentieth legion and its activities in various quarters of the Empire are also collected and presented. This epigraphic evidence is drawn together with that of the archaeological and historical sources and with the copious modern literature on the subject of the Roman Army to present a history of the Twentieth Legion from its formation out of the legions of the civil wars of the late Republic to its uncertain end in the changing conditions of the late third and fourth centuries. Particular emphasis is placed on the role of individuals and the light that their careers can shed on the history and activities of the legion. Studies on a number of other aspects of the history and organization of the legion are appended. . Archaeopress paperback

CARAUSIUS A Consideration of the Historical Archaeological and Numismatic Aspects of His Reign
Archaeopress. Fine. 2004. Softcover. 1841716561 . British Archaeological Reports B. A. R. British Series 378; 101 pages; This study relates the significant bronze coinage of the usurper Carausius 286-93 to the archaeological and historical evidence from the period. Since the publication of Roman Imperial Coinage. Volume Vii in 1933 many new and significant coin types have appeared. Several important hoards have been published in the intervening years which throw a new light on discussions of the chronology of the coinage enabling a modified sequence of issues to be postulated. Part of an important hoard discovered in the 1980Aes has been reconstituted. Much information regarding the archaeology of Roman Britain in the latter half of the third century has been published during the last three decades and this is discussed in conjunction with the coin evidence of site finds. Consideration is made of the probable methods employed in the striking of the coinage and a new mathematical method is invoked to yield a more accurate picture of the supply of coinage under the Carausian administration. A study of the metrology of the bronze coinage is made and this includes the illustration of the metrology with a three-dimensional surface using computer graphics. Consideration of the geographical distribution of the index-marked coinage has enabled a new interpretation of the location of the minting centres to be forwarded. The older historical sources have been reconsidered and important new interpretations have been made. Certain aspects of the coinage which relate to the history have been examined in the light of newly discovered coin types. The study involved the examination of approximately seven thousand specimens of the coinage from both public and private collections and excavations. . Archaeopress paperback
