Plague In Antiquity

~~343,18€~~ 308,86€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This volume came about based on the recognition that the rise and spread of Covid-19 has led contemporary scholarship to consider the possibility that there will be an increasing acceleration of new and highly transmissible plagues, viruses and other diseases linked to the mass travel and trade that characterizes hyper-globalization. As historians and archaeologists studying the civilizations of the most distant past, we felt that we had something to contribute to this conversation through providing a historical perspective, with the twin goals of relieving the social anxiety caused by pandemics and taking advantage of our present experiences to see how we might view our own research in a fresh, new light. Archaeologists and scholars of ancient history know that epidemic plagues and other environmental catastrophes are nothing new: disease and illness are clearly represented in the archaeological and historical record. The chapters in this volume focus on plague in antiquity, centred primarily on the ancient Near East. Chronologically, they span the Bronze Age to Late Antiquity, and regionally they cover Mesopotamia, Egypt, the Levant, Cyprus, Anatolia and the Indus valley. The contributors discuss a range of topics related to plague-its causes and transmission, environmental factors, responses and treatments, disruptions and social effects-drawing on ancient texts, modern sociology, archaeological evidence and cultural material remains. The variety of contributions demonstrates that rather than being anomalous, various forms of illness were normal, recurring and prevalent within the ancient world. The authors refer to the current Covid-19 pandemic, which was also inspiration in producing this work. This volume contributes to the contextualization of plague, pestilence, disease and disability within wider and deeper human history.

Fouilles De Tel Yarmouth (1980-2009). Rapport Final. Volume 1 - Les Fouilles Sur L''Acropole

de Pr De Miroschedji

331,25€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 Tel Yarmuth is a major archaeological site of the southern Levant, located 25 km south-west of Jerusalem. In the Early Bronze Age, it was the largest fortified city-state of this region. Long after its abandonment around 2400 BCE, it was reoccupied on the acropolis only, which remained settled more or less continuously from the Middle Bronze Age II (17th-16th cent. BCE) to the Early Byzantine Period (4th cent. CE). The site is identified with the biblical settlement of Yarmuth and the Byzantine village of Iermochos. This volume is the first monograph of the final publication of the excavations conducted between 1980 and 2009. It is devoted to the excavations on the acropolis where the entire settlement history of Yarmuth was established. It provides an account of those excavations, a detailed presentation of the stratigraphy, extensive descriptions of the pottery and the various archaeological artefacts and ecofacts, and a discussion of the archaeological and biblical contexts of the site''s history. The continuous archaeological sequence from the Late Bronze II to the end of the Iron Age I (c. 1200-950 BCE) is especially noteworthy. It illustrates the fate of a Canaanite village in the shadow of larger regional centers during the momentous centuries that witnessed the decline of the Canaanite polities, the rise of the Philistine city-states and the emergence of the kingdom of Judah.

~~373,65€~~ 336,29€ 10% IMEDIATO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The first conference to be dedicated to the archaeology of eastern Turkey was held at Ege University, Izmir, in February 2019. This volume publishes 15 revised versions of papers dealing with issues related to the archaeology of the region. The wide range of topics includes discoveries dating from prehistoric times to the Iron Ages, and both surface surveys and excavations. Chapters cover production activities, ethnoarchaeology, experimental archaeology, chronology and dating, cultural interactions, classification systems, archaeometric analysis and fieldwork experiences. A crucial theme of the conference and of this publication is problems associated with practising archaeology in eastern Anatolia. The main questions addressed are why is there declining interest in doing eastern Anatolian archaeology, how can we ensure consistency among archaeological projects in the region and how can financial and logistical support be secured, what should be done to attract undergraduate and graduate students to the field, and what is the reason for the decreasing number of international collaborations in the region? This book is intended for all those who are interested in the present and future of archaeological practice in eastern Turkey.

Life In Palmyra, Life For Palmyra - Conference In Memory Of Khaled Al-As''Ad, Warsaw, April 21st-22nd, 2016

404,13€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The contributors to this publication met in Warsaw in 2016 to remember Khaled al-As''ad, a mutual friend whose tragic demise the year before in his native Palmyra, in front of the Museum that he had directed for forty years, became a tragic testimonial to fanaticism and a barbaric destruction of civilization. The conference Life in Palmyra, Life for Palmyra, which brought together an international group of more than thirty scholars, and the publication, which is the result of this meeting, became a tribute to Khaled al-As?ad and his life''s work. The papers offered here cover a wide range of topics related to Palmyra and its vicinity, spanning a period from the Paleolithic to the Byzantine. Supplementing the volume are some personal messages and reflections, and the score and a recording of Tadmor, a sonata for viola and violoncello composed specially for this occasion. Also included in this volume is the text of the Warsaw Declaration, passed unanimously by members of a round table organized ad hoc at the conference, which coincided with the liberation of Palmyra from ISIS in March 2016. In this document scholars formulated the convictions of the research community regarding the restoration priorities to be implemented in the near future at this important and unique archaeological site.

Amphorae In The Phoenician-Punic World - The State Of The Art

363,05€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This thematic volume comprises 30 articles by 44 specialists and is the first collection solely dedicated to the study of Amphoras of the Phoenician-Punic world. The articles take their lead from presentations at a conference held in Ghent in December 2016. It is a welcome update to the terrain covered more than a quarter-century ago by the highly influential monograph of Juan Ramon, Las anforas fenicio-punicas del Mediterraneo Central y Occidental (Col-leccio Instrumenta 2), Barcelona: 1995. The link between trade and the Phoenician and Punic World is so pronounced that these subjects have often been treated synonymously. It is, therefore, hardly surprising that "the Amphora, the key element of the trade in foodstuffs during Antiquity, has been considered the guide fossil for Phoenician and Punic trade". Geographically, the present contributions cover the space from the Levantine coast to the Atlantic shores of the Iberian Peninsula. Chronologically, they range from the earliest moments of the Phoenician presence in the western Mediterranean during the ninth century BCE until the centuries following the destruction of Carthage and its empire. Thematically, the volume deals with issues of production, typology, distribution, contents, and even socio-economical aspects. As such, it may be considered as a true state of the art on the Amphoras of the Phoenician and Punic World.

Worked Animal Bone Of The Neolithic North Aegean

de J. W. Paul

265,00€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Neolithic (7000-5000 BCE) of the North Aegean - comprising western Turkey, northern and central Greece, and the north Aegean islands - saw an influx of new subsistence strategies into an already established region. Worked animal bone, including tools and objects, was one element of the prehistoric toolkit that was consistently created, used, and discarded by North Aegean communities to support their new agricultural way of life. This study, a comparative analysis of almost 100 sites, furthers our understanding of Neolithic North Aegean worked animal bone assemblages through a series of research questions drawn from evidence in published reports and new research which have burgeoned in the last two decades. Results from this research reveal how bone was transformed into tools and objects and in what ways they were used in everyday activities, such as textile manufacture, hide preparation, and pottery moulding. An emphasis on the important symbolic role worked bone played during special events and their interaction with this intricate landscape is also stressed, highlighting the complexity of the region and the period.

Borders In Archaeology - Anatolia And The South Caucasus Ca. 3500-500 Bce

231,88€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 This volume is devoted to the search for borders in archaeology and takes as a case study the archaeology of Anatolia and the South Caucasus in the Bronze and Iron Ages. Up until the mid-first millennium BCE, these regions differ in interregional and macro-regional interactions, political complexity, economic and mobility strategies, and communication of identities, among which is the use and spread of writing through time. They are united by their representation in ancient sources and modern literature as borderlands. These features represent the core of the discussion developed in the volume. Chapters include theoretical discussion of borders and boundaries, and regional investigations of the Early, Middle and Late Bronze Age (Assyrian colony period, Hittite empire in Anatolia, Kura-Araxes, Trialeti-Vanadzor, Van-Urmia and other traditions in the South Caucasus), the Early Iron Age and Middle Iron Age (Troy, Phrygia, Urartu), until the unification under the Achaemenid Empire. They offer a balanced interplay between site-based investigations and landscape archaeology in Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey.

Heritage In Conflict - Proceedings Of Two Meetings: ''Heritage In Conflict: A Review Of The Situation In Syria And Iraq'', Workshop Held At The 63rd Rencontre Assyriologique

218,63€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Syrian and Iraqi civil wars, with their immense toll of human suffering, have also fuelled an unprecedented wave of heritage destruction. The deliberate ruin of cultural property in Syria and Iraq by the self-proclaimed Islamic State (also referred to as IS, ISIS, ISIL or Da''esh) and other belligerents - widely broadcast across traditional and social media - has horrified heritage professionals and the general public alike. How the heritage community reacted is now coming under increasing scrutiny. The low impact of some projects and, indeed, the total ineffectiveness of others has been highlighted by various commentators. Now is the time to evaluate our responses, reflecting on the successes and failures, in the hope of making future efforts more effective. It is intended that this volume will contribute to this process. This book reflects the proceedings of two workshops, held in Marburg and Melbourne in 2017, that dealt with these matters, and the contributions provide a range of insights into the problems (and solutions) involved. Rather than lengthy formal papers, they offer accounts - in many cases first-hand reports or personal reflections - on the situation as it unfolded.

Covering chronological issues, textual evidence, scientific analyses, and a wide range of material culture (including especially ceramics, metals, stone, and glass), this volume encompasses the recent results of work at this important second-millennium BC site.

Lure Of The Antique - Essays On Malta And Mediterranean Archaeology In Honour Of Anthony Bonanno

229,23€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

Metal Jewellery Of The Southern Levant And Its Western Neighbours - Cross-Cultural Influences In The Early Iron Age Eastern Mediterranean

de J. A. Verduci

270,30€ + 10% EM CARTÃO

DISPONIBILIDADE IMEDIATA

 The Early Iron Age period of the southern coastal plain of the Levant (ca. 1200-900 BCE) displays certain new features that suggest the appearance of the Philistines or other Sea Peoples. The early stages of this period represent a departure from Late Bronze Age traditions and evidence of cross-cultural influences within the eastern Mediterranean. This volume contributes to the discussion of the origin of the Sea Peoples by examining the role of adornment in the portrayal of cultural identity. Metal jewellery is assessed from 29 sites in the southern Levant, the Aegean, and Cyprus, resulting in the creation of the first multi-regional typology of metal jewellery for the Iron Age I-IIA eastern Mediterranean. By examining various categories of metal jewellery from the southern Levant and its western neighbours, this study contributes to the debate about the relations and exchanges that affected the region during this pivotal period in history. The formation, maintenance, and communication of group identification through physical appearance is assessed through a phenomenological view of cultural material to explain what is termed cultural intention.
