The Byzantine Monuments and Topography of the Pontos. 2 Vols

Original textured blue cloth with gilt lettering on covers and spines in photo-illustrated dustjackets brown lettering on spine. Frontispiece maps.<br /> <br /> The Pontos and its Empire of Trebizond 1204-1461 embraced the distinctive Black Sea coastlands mountains and pastures of northeastern Anatolia. "The purpose of this Study is twofold. First it is an essay in placing the material remains of the medieval peoples of a distinct region of Anatolia the Pontos in their historical and geographical setting. Second it is a record – all too often of what can no longer be recorded. In the two decades since Anthony Bryer A.A.M.B. and David Winfield D.C.W. first met in the east porch of the Hagia Sophia Trebizond on 19 August 1959 the Pontos has suffered a greater physical transformation than in its entire previous history." Preface. <br /> <br /> Illustrated with some five hundred b/w photographs on 290 plates three folding maps two in two colors and in-text drawings maps plans and tables. Contains list of figures abbreviations and an extensive bibliography at front appendix with measurements and indices at rear. Dustjackets with light creasing at top and bottom edges light creasing hear and small closed tear at top left of volume two. Interiors in near fine condition.

BUNTING Heinrich (1545 - 1606)
Tafel der Lender darin der Apostel Paulus geprediget hat
Carta storio-geografica che mostra le regioni toccate da San Paolo Apostolo durante la sua predicazione itinerante che interessò tutta l'area del Mediterraneo orientale: dalla Terra Santa all'Africa settentrionale , all'Asia Minore, alla Grecia, all'Italia meridionale e la Sicilia. Sulla mappa sono riportati i toponimi e i profili delle principali città, mentre nel mare - inciso con linee ondulate strette - sono raffigurati mostri marini.La mappa è inserita nell’ Itinerarium Sacrae Scriptura, per la prima volta edito nel 1581, e successivamente ristampato in ben dieci diverse edizioni. L’opera è corredata da diverse curiosità cartografiche decisamente insolite per l’epoca. Xilografia, testo tedesco al verso, piccole mancanze restaurate al margine inferiore bianco, per il resto in buone condizioni. Taken from the "Itinerarium Sacrae Scripturae", the map showing the Eastern Mediterranean with Southern Italy and Sicily, Greece, Cyprus, Asia Minor, the Holy Land and North Africa, with city profiles and sea monsters. Woodcut, very good condition.
