Download or read book Zeugma written by Robert Early and published by John Humphrey. This book was released on 2003 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2000 a major archaeological rescue project took place at Zeugma in order to learn as much as possible about this ancient city before it was flooded by the Birecik Dam. Many of the discoveries, particularly the outstanding mosaics, have stunned the archaeological world and caught the imagination of the general public. This volume publishes the interim reports from this season of excavation, presenting us with a glimpse of some of the discoveries, including Hellenistic and Roman upper-class houses, shops, bathhouses and military structures. Particular attention is paid here to the life-size bronze statue of Mars (complete with silver and gold eyes), inscriptions of Antiochus I of Commagene, the Roman military presence and, of course, the marvellous wall-paintings and mosaics which are presented in colour photographs. Five reports are presented here, one of which is in French. This study provides us with a tantalising glimpse of what is to come.

Download or read book Greek Religious Terminology written by Feyo Schuddeboom and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A proper understanding of the words and and the context in which they occur is fundamental to the study of Greek religion. This volume seeks to make a significant portion of the source material available to present-day students of religions in the Graeco-Roman world. The ancient texts are accompanied by English translations. Revised chapters from the seminal works by Zijderveld (1934) and Van der Burg (1939) show a whole range of different contexts in ancient literature, thus arguing against an automatic equation of and with mystery rites. New chapters give an overview of the loanword orgia in Latin poetry, and of and in the epigraphical evidence.

Download or read book East and West in Late Antiquity written by J.H.W.F. Liebeschuetz and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-05-19 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: East and West in Late Antiquity combines published and unpublished articles by emeritus professor Wolf Liebeschuetz. The collection concerns aspects of what Gibbon called 'the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire'. This interpretation is now much criticized, but the author agrees with Gibbon. Topics discussed are defensive strategies, the settlement inside the Empire of invaders and immigrants, and the modification of identities with the formation of new communities. Liebeschuetz is interested in both the eastern and the western halves of the Empire. In the East he is particularly concerned with Syria, the expansion of settlement up to the edge of the desert, and Christianisation. The book ends with an examination of the role of the Christian Arab Ghassanids in the defense of the Syrian provinces in the century leading up to the conquest of the provinces by the Islamic Arabs.

Download or read book Using Images in Late Antiquity written by Stine Birk and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2014-04-30 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen papers focus on the active and dynamic uses of images during the first millennium AD. They bring together an international group of scholars who situate the periods visual practices within their political, religious, and social contexts. The contributors present a diverse range of evidence, including mosaics, sculpture, and architecture from all parts of the Mediterranean, from Spain in the west to Jordan in the east. Contributions span from the depiction of individuals on funerary monuments through monumental epigraphy, Constantines expropriation and symbolic re-use of earlier monuments, late antique collections of Classical statuary, and city personifications in mosaics to the topic of civic prosperity during the Theodosian period and dynastic representation during the Umayyad dynasty. Together they provide new insights into the central role of visual culture in the constitution of late antique societies.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Roman Imagery and Iconography written by Lea K. Cline and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-12-29 with total page 593 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Roman imagery and iconography are typically studied under the more general umbrella of Roman art and in broader, medium-specific studies. This handbook focuses primarily on visual imagery in the Roman world, examined by context and period, and the evolving scholarly traditions of iconographic analysis and visual semiotics that have framed the modern study of these images. As such topics-or, more directly, the isolation of these topics from medium-specific or strictly temporal evaluations of Roman art-are uncommon in monograph-length studies, our goal is that this handbook will be an important reference for both the communicative value of images in the Roman world and the tradition of iconographical analysis. The chapters herein represent contributions from a number of leading and emerging authorities on Roman imagery and iconography from across the world, representing a variety of academic traditions and methods of image analysis"--
