Summary The Mediterranean has, for millennia, formed the heart of an intensive trading network of ideas, goods, and people. For the ancient populations of the Levant, Cyprus, and Southern Anatolia, interactions with the sea ? from fishing to seafaring, and from trade to dye production ? were a constant presence in their life. But how did the coastal peoples of the Bronze Age understand the sea? How did living on the shore influence their lives, from daily practices to mythological beliefs? And what was the impact on their conceptual world? This volume seeks to engage with these questions by addressing the relationship between environment, diet, material production, perception, and thought formation through a combination of archaeological analysis and engagement with primary sources, and in doing so, it offers unique insights into the conceptual world of the ancient Mediterranean maritime cultures of the 2nd millennium BCE.

Summary This volume explores how boundaries were created, perceived, and experienced in past societies. Bringing together diverse theoretical and methodological approaches - from cognitive and processual to sensory and phenomenological - the contributors examine how spatial meaning is attributed through the creation and negotiation of boundaries. The volume is structured into three thematic sections: the first investigates how boundaries define and characterize space; the second focuses on the act of crossing boundaries and its role in shaping spatial significance; and the third examines the experience of boundaries, of their crossing, and of the spaces contained within them. Drawing on case studies from Prehistory to the Early Modern period, and spanning regions from Europe and Africa to Central Asia, the chapters reflect a wide range of archaeological traditions and perspectives. Through innovative analyses and interdisciplinary dialogue, this collection advances our understanding of how past societies organized, perceived, and interacted with space.

In the Upper Egyptian town Pathyris nearly twenty bilingual family archives have been found, dating to the second and first centuries BCE. They contain different types of documents, but contracts play an important role. Most of the Greek contracts were written by notaries (agoranomoi), whose native language was Egyptian. This study describes the language contact situation in Hellenistic Egypt in general and in Pathyris in particular. Notarial offices and scribal families in Upper Egypt are also discussed. The main focus of the study is a thorough phonological and morpho-syntactic analysis of the Greek language of the bilingual notaries. With the help of handwriting analysis, we get close to studying idiolects. Some of the notaries had more transfer features from their first language than others. Especially a notary called Hermias used creative strategies to avoid certain Greek structures and his Greek seems to present a learner's interlanguage with first and second language structures intertwining.

The Greek architectural orders?Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian?lie at the heart of the classical traditions of building, and yet satisfying accounts for their origins have proved elusive. In contrast with conventional theories that would see the orders originating over the course of a long evolution, this book stresses the suddenness of the phenomenon and its dependence on historical context, human agency, and artistic inspiration. Casting new light on a subject that has preoccupied architects since the Renaissance, Mark Wilson Jones shows how construction, influence, appearance, and meaning found expression in complex and multifaceted designs. New emphasis is placed on the relationship between the orders and the temples of worship that they were created to adorn. Temples were exquisitely made offerings to the divinity, and they also contained valuable offerings. In revealing affinities between certain offerings and the orders, the author explains how these gave architectural expression to sensibilities of intense social and religious significance.

Makelaar en fervent amateurarcheoloog Martien Weel (1935-2011) legde al rond 1950 de basis voor zijn eigen collectie bodemvondsten. In de periode waarin hij gewapend met schop, laarzen en (later) detector op pad ging, veranderde niet alleen het hobbygraven zelf, maar ook de manier waarop men naar deze liefhebberij keek. De vele vindplaatsen door grootschalig grondverzet, koerswijzigingen binnen de archeologie, de ontdekking van de metaaldetector, nieuwe wetgeving? Al die ontwikkelingen worden belicht in het boek.>Goed gevonden vormt een kleine geschiedenis van (amateur)archeologie in Nederland, maar vertelt bovenal het levensverhaal van een gelukkige graver. Ook bovengronds: alle vondsten werden met zorg gearchiveerd. De mooiste en meest bijzondere worden nu onthuld. Van munten, insignes en riembeslag tot steengoed, aardewerk, tegels en glas.Treed in Weels voetsporen en volg hem tijdens zijn zoektochten in onder meer Medemblik, Hoorn en Amsterdam. Hoe ging hij te werk? Waar werd gegraven? Wat is de geschiedenis van de vindplaatsen? Marleen Weel vertelt het levensverhaal van haar vader. Verschillende (amateur)-archeologen en andere verzamelaars onderzoeken de vondsten en het vinden door de jaren heen.

Summary Was geschah in der Stadt Rom mit den republikanischen Tempelbauten während der Kaiserzeit? Wie wurden diese (noch) genutzt? Welchen baulichen Veränderungen unterlagen sie? Neue Akteure, veränderte Machtverhältnisse, eine ganze Stadt im Wandel, zunehmend begrenzter Raum, wegfallende Sichtachsen, letztendlich aber auch neue Kulte sowie neue Formen von Kultbauten und -praktiken bestimmen den Rahmen, vor dem auch das Fortbestehen der bereits in republikanischer Zeit vorhandenen Heiligtümer betrachtet werden muss. Dabei zeichnet sich ein Bild ihrer Nutzungsweisen und Funktionen, das kaum heterogener sein könnte, sich bei näherer Betrachtung jedoch sinnvoll zu einem Ganzen verbindet. Geprägt von Pragmatismus und dem Repräsentationswillen verschiedener Akteure spiegelt sich im unterschiedlichen Umgang mit den Heiligtümern die räumliche und funktionale Segmentierung der kaiserzeitlichen Stadt eindrucksvoll wider. Dabei steht weit mehr als die Rekonstruktion der bisher häufig vernachlässigten kaiserzeitlichen Phasen ausgewählter Heiligtümer im Vordergrund. Es sind die Einbettung der Architekturen und Räume dieser Stätten in das urbane Umfeld, die Konzeption städtischen Raumes und insbesondere auch die Frage, welche Rolle den ?alten' Kulten in einer ?neuen' Stadt beigemessen wurde, die das Augenmerk dieses Buches bilden.

Summary On 4 August 1897, farm workers in Elche - the site of ancient Ilici - discovered an Iberian sculpture of a woman that dated from the fifth- fourth centuries BCE. French archaeologist Pierre Paris dubbed this figure 'the Lady of Elche', and promptly purchased the sculpture on behalf of the Louvre Museum. There, she drew the attention of European scholars who were intrigued by her stylistic features, finally concluding that she bore witness to the existence of a specifically Iberian art. Since her discovery, the Lady of Elche has been a source of fascination not only for scholars, but also for artists, and she has become an icon of regional and national identity across Spain. This volume, co-written by an archaeologist and an anthropologist and translated here into English for the first time, seeks to explore the importance of the Lady of Elche, both for students of the past, and for the peoples of Iberia. The authors here explore not only what we know - and still do not know - about her creation, but also engage with key questions about what she represents for the men and women of our time who have questioned, manipulated, admired, loved, and often reinvented the singular beauty of this iconic figure.
