Book Synopsis Conflict Archaeology by : Manuel Fernández-Götz
Download or read book Conflict Archaeology written by Manuel Fernández-Götz and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the past two decades, conflict archaeology has become firmly established as a promising field of research, as reflected in publications, symposia, conference sessions and fieldwork projects. It has its origins in the study of battlefields and other conflict-related phenomena in the modern Era, but numerous studies show that this theme, and at least some of its methods, techniques and theories, are also relevant for older historical and even prehistoric periods. This book presents a series of case-studies on conflict archaeology in ancient Europe, based on the results of both recent fieldwork and a reassessment of older excavations. The chronological framework spans from the Neolithic to Late Antiquity, and the geographical scope from Iberia to Scandinavia. Along key battlefields such as the Tollense Valley, Baecula, Alesia, Kalkriese and Harzhorn, the volume also incorporates many other sources of evidence that can be directly related to past conflict scenarios, including defensive works, military camps, battle-related ritual deposits, and symbolic representations of violence in iconography and grave goods. The aim is to explore the material evidence for the study of warfare, and to provide new theoretical and methodological insights into the archaeology of mass violence in ancient Europe and beyond.

Book Synopsis Ceramics, Cuisine and Culture by : Michela Spataro
Download or read book Ceramics, Cuisine and Culture written by Michela Spataro and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2015-10-31 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 23 papers presented here are the product of the interdisciplinary exchange of ideas and approaches to the study of kitchen pottery between archaeologists, material scientists, historians and ethnoarchaeologists. They aim to set a vital but long-neglected category of evidence in its wider social, political and economic contexts. Structured around main themes concerning technical aspects of pottery production; cooking as socioeconomic practice; and changing tastes, culinary identities and cross-cultural encounters, a range of social economic and technological models are discussed on the basis of insights gained from the study of kitchen pottery production, use and evolution. Much discussion and work in the last decade has focussed on technical and social aspects of coarse ware and in particular kitchen ware. The chapters in this volume contribute to this debate, moving kitchen pottery beyond the Binfordian ‘technomic’ category and embracing a wider view, linking processualism, ceramic-ecology, behavioral schools, and ethnoarchaeology to research on historical developments and cultural transformations covering a broad geographical area of the Mediterranean region and spanning a long chronological sequence.
Book Synopsis Aristocrats and Statehood in Western Iberia, 300-600 C.E. by : Damián Fernández
Download or read book Aristocrats and Statehood in Western Iberia, 300-600 C.E. written by Damián Fernández and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2017-09-26 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a distant corner of the late antique world, along the Atlantic river valleys of western Iberia, local elite populations lived through the ebb and flow of empire and kingdoms as historical agents with their own social strategies. Contrary to earlier historiographical accounts, these aristocrats were not oppressed by a centralized Roman empire or its successor kingdoms; nor was there an inherent conflict between central states and local elites. Instead, Damián Fernández argues, there was an interdependency of state and local aristocracies. The upper classes embraced state projects to assert their ascendancy within their communities. By doing so, they enacted statehood at the local level, bringing state presence to the remotest corners of Iberia, both under Roman rule and during the later Suevic and Visigothic kingdoms. Aristocrats and Statehood in Western Iberia, 300-600 C.E. combines archaeological and literary sources to reconstruct the history of late antique Iberian aristocracies, facilitating the study of a social class that has proved elusive when approached through the lens of a single type of evidence. This is the first study of Iberian elites that covers both the late Roman and the post-Roman periods in similar depth, and the chronological approach allows for a new perspective on social agency of late antique nobility. While the end of the Roman empire changed the political, economic, and social strategies of local aristocrats, the book also demonstrates a considerable degree of continuity that lasted until the late sixth century.
Book Synopsis Innovative Vaulting in the Architecture of the Roman Empire by : Lynne C. Lancaster
Download or read book Innovative Vaulting in the Architecture of the Roman Empire written by Lynne C. Lancaster and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-12 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book studies six vaulting techniques employed in architecture outside of Rome and asks why they were invented where they were and how they were disseminated. Most of the techniques involve terracotta elements in various forms, such as regular flat bricks, hollow voussoirs, vaulting tubes, and armchair voussoirs. Each one is traced geographically via GIS mapping, the results of which are analysed in relation to chronology, geography, and historical context. The most common building type in which the techniques appear is the bath, demonstrating its importance as a catalyst for technological innovation. This book also explores trade networks, the pottery industry, and military movements in relation to building construction, revealing how architectural innovation was influenced by wide ranging cultural factors, many of which stemmed from local influences rather than imperial intervention. Additional resources including extensive searchable databases with bibliographical data and colour illustrations available at www.cambridge.org/vaulting.

Book Synopsis Horrea d'Hispanie et de la Méditerranée romaine by : Javier Arce
Download or read book Horrea d'Hispanie et de la Méditerranée romaine written by Javier Arce and published by Casa de Velázquez. This book was released on 2011 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Les horrea, édifices de stockage et de rangement, font partie intégrante des circuits d'approvisionnement du monde méditerranéen antique. Leur utilisation relève d'une nécessité économique et politique et renvoie à un contrôle des ressources exercé à différentes échelles, selon des logiques différenciées et pour des durées plus ou moins longues. À travers l'étude des différents types d'entrepôts de la période romaine, le présent ouvrage se propose d'analyser les logiques du stockage et les réseaux de distribution et de redistribution dans le monde méditerranéen. Il porte principalement sur la péninsule Ibérique, tout en offrant des points de comparaison avec l'Italie, l'Orient et l'Afrique. Il fournit ainsi un premier bilan sur les structures de stockage de l'Hispanie et ouvre également des perspectives plus larges sur le fonctionnement de l'économie et le rôle de l'État dans le monde romain."--Page 4 of cover.
