Stable Isotopic Analysis of the Mollusk Shells (Ioannis Liritzis, Androniki Drivaliari and Adamantios Sampson). ; Prehistory Monographs 31; Vol. 2; 395 pages; This book completes the two-part series that serves as the final report for the excavation of the Cave of the Cyclops on the island of Youra in the Northern Sporades of Greece, a site that was occasionally occupied from the Mesolithic through Roman period. The second volume contains the results of detailed studies on the archaeological material, organic remains, and archeometric analyses that complete the image of this significant archaeological site. These studies help to further distinguish the main characteristics of the Mesolithic culture in the Aegean basin, including: the intense exploitation of sea resources, limited hunting activities, the collection of native fruits and land snails to supplement the diet, and attempts at domestication by isolated island communities.

Cooley, Alison E. (Ed. )
THE EPIGRAPHIC LANDSCAPE OF ROMAN ITALY
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-élite 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.

THE BOOK OF ALEXANDER SARCOPHAGUS
Scholar's name to ffep (E. Badian). Very light bump to bottom edge of rear board. Else fine. Light stains to front panel of DJ. Else very minor shelfwear to DJ. ; After an introduction of the Royal Necropolis of Sidon, examines the faces and finally the lid of the Alexander Sarcophagus in detail. At the end of the book its decorative style and ornamentation is described. The Alexander Sarcophagus has been a major attraction of the Istanbul Archaeological Museum ever since it was found in the late nineteenth century. Although named after Alexander the Great, the sarcophagus was not his, but was probably that of Abdalonymos, the last king of Sidon (Saida). Abdalonymos owed his throne to Alexander and the latter's close friend and general, Hephaistion. The subject matter of the reliefs decorating the sarcophagus suggests that Abdalonymos was here commemorating his benefactors; the sarcophagus thus takes its name, not from the ruler who commissioned it, but from its iconography; 64 pages

Fondation Nationale De La Recherche Scientifique; 379 pages; Au cours du IVe siècle avant J. -C. , certains royaumes chypriotes frappent des monnaies d'or, phénomène d’autant plus remarquable qu’en dehors des dariques en or du Grand Roi achéménide, la frappe de ce métal est extrêmement rare avant l’émission de statères d’or de Philippe II de Macédoine. Quels sont les rois chypriotes qui ont frappé des monnaies en or ? Dans quels royaumes, quand et pourquoi ? D’où provient l’or ? Les émissions sont-elles régulières ? Quel est le rapport entre ces monnayages et l’histoire politique de Chypre ? Quelle est la place de ces monnaies dans la circulation monétaire de l’époque, quel est l’étalon monétaire utilisé et le taux de change entre le monnayage en or et celui en argent ? La réponse aux questions posées ci-dessous sera donnée à partir du corpus par coin des monnaies en or des rois de Chypre et à partir de leur métrologie et de leur composition métallique. Dans ce livre, où le témoignage des sources littéraires, épigraphiques et archéologiques est associé à celui des monnaies, la politique monétaire des rois chypriotes est analysée afin d'éclairer l’histoire de Chypre jusqu’à la fin des royaumes autonomes.

Bump to top of spine. Some wear to bottom corners of wraps. ; 176 pages; The two German provinces of the Roman Empire, Germania Superior and Germania Inferior, which included modern Germany, Switzerland, the Netherlands, and parts of France and Belgium, formed a vital link between the Mediterranean and the North Sea.

It deals with the pre-Roman societies and their landscapes, which were to be changed by the Romans after the conquests of Caesar and Augustus. The book also explores the concept of frontier and assesses the role of the German provinces as border zones of the Empire.

Light pencil marginalia to a few pages Spine is somewhat discolored. Spine ends have light wear. Oversized. Scholar's name (T. J. Dunbabin) on ffep. 3 Bibliographical lines written to rear endpaper in ink. Boards have light discolored areas mostly to spine and rear board (water-staining? ). ; 148 plates at end. ; Corinth Volume XII; 366 pages; The fifth part of the Corinth volume dedicated to the Sanctuary of Demeter and Kore publishes the large-scale terracotta sculpture found in the sanctuary. Ranging in date from the late 7th through the 4th century B.C., the sculpture consists of fragments from 132 to as many as 147 statues, from half- to nearly life-size. These are, for the most part, statues of young males, both draped and nude, although females and seated infants appear as well. Several introductory chapters discuss the types represented, the findspots and possible original placement of the sculptures, and the techniques involved in their construction. This volume greatly expands our knowledge of the history of Corinth, broadening our understanding both of cult practices at the site and of the manufacture of terracotta sculpture.
