Summary Human agents might not be the measure of all things. Nonetheless, human bodies, and their bodily dimensions, often are, with size impacting on the ways in which we conceive of, interact with, and relate to the world around us. The scaling up or down of features ? magnification and miniaturization ? is particularly evident in the creation of anthropogenic items intended for use in religious ritual, and here sizing can be employed as a deliberate strategy to encourage shock and awe, admiration and deterrence, among spectators. Taking as its starting point the concept of 'materialities and meanings', this volume explores how human perceptions and understanding of magnified and miniaturized forms and structures are shaped and changed, both synchronically and diachronically, by our understanding of the human body and its size, and the impact that this has in our relationship with the wider world in the context of ritual practices. The chapters collected here consider a range of questions, from a discussion on the essentials of magnification or miniaturization to an exploration of the impact of such strategies on humans and their wider socio-political ramifications. Together, these chapters contribute to a unique discussion that offers new insights into 'materialities and meanings', the creation of items for ritual, and the ways in which they influence human perception and understanding.

C'est toute la force et l'originalité des rois scythes qui s'exprime à travers ces trésors d'orfèvrerie exhumés des tombes monumentales de l'aristocratie " barbare " peuplant jadis l'Ukraine. Hérodote mentionne les Scythes pour la première fois vers 430 avant notre ère, fasciné par leur richesse et leurs m?urs étranges, leur raffinement et la cruauté de leurs usages, leur courage et leurs parures somptueuses, qui avaient ébloui les Grecs au cours des contacts qui s'organisaient autour du commerce du blé, que les Scythes fournissaient aux Grecs. L'ouvrage, qui présente cent soixante-douze pièces provenant de trouvailles anciennes, mais aussi de recherches récentes scientifiquement menées, incite le lecteur à découvrir tous les thèmes de cette orfèvrerie : scènes rituelles ou guerrières, animaux paisibles, cruels ou fantastiques qui ornent bijoux et harnachements de chevaux, reproduits avec une grande vivacité et une parfaite maîtrise plastique.

Summary Attica, the region which surrounds Athens (Greece) is a key area for understanding the transformation of the ancient Roman world to its Medieval successor in the eastern Mediterranean. Located at a crossroads for land and maritime communications, being well populated, carrying a thorough administrative organization and a heavy cultural and religious tradition, the region participated in the broader historic evolutions from the 4th to the 12th centuries. Moreover, Attica stands out in contemporary historic and archaeological research due to its very intensive field research, starting in the 19th century and culminating since the 1960s, through rescue excavation and systematic studies. The outcome of this multi-faceted research on field and monuments which concerns the 4th to 12th centuries forms the backbone of the present volume. Stepping beyond this compilation, however, this study proceeds into being a synthesis of evidence on settlement patterns, road communications, defensive works, religious activities and burial habits. These topics are underpinned by aspects which belong to the longue durée, geography and the natural environment, which are considered as crucial to the understanding of the Byzantine history. In short, the present book covers as many aspects of the studied area as possible, aiming to show the potential of regional studies for the history and archaeology of Late Antiquity and Byzantium.

Roman wooden writing tablets, known in Latin as tabulae ceratae, have been found by archaeologists in various locations around the former capital of the civitas/municipium Tungrorum or Roman Tongeren (now the Belgian city of Tongeren-Borgloon). These rare and delicate finds are remarkable not only due to the excellent state of their preservation, but also because they are inscribed with the remnants of texts, once etched into an overlying wax layer, that can, to the discerning eye, still be deciphered. The tablets not only provide concrete information about religious, judicial and administrative practices, but they also enhance our understanding of the complex processes of Romanisation and Latinisation in the northwestern civitates and municipia of the Roman Empire. Unearthed in the first half of the twentieth century, with a second group discovered in 2013, the Roman tablets housed in the Gallo-Roman Museum of Tongeren-Borgloon and in the city?s municipal heritage depository, became the object of an in-depth study by an international team of specialists piloted by the Gallo-Roman Museum. It is the results of this project that are presented here in this volume for the first time. The painstaking process of deciphering and interpreting the script marks and text fragments is explored via analysis of palaeography, philology and onomastics, along with key scientific techniques such as wax analysis, wood species identification, and script visualisation by Multi-Light Reflectance Imaging. Rich detail is also provided about other associated wooden finds that shed light on how and where the tablets were produced. The result is a beautifully illustrated and insightful volume that introduces the lost world of Roman Tongeren and its writing tablets to professionals and the general public alike.Edited by Else Hartoch and with contributions by Blänsdorf J., Scholz M., Accardo S., Boudin M., Deforce K., De Vos D., Groetembril S., Hameeuw H., Hartoch E., Marquez C., Pauwels D., Raepsaet G., Raepsaet-Charlier M.-Th., Vanderhoeven A., Van Kersen V., Verbanck-Piérard A. & Watteeuw L.
