Abstract | "This volumes contains 81 contributions on ancient wall painting presented in the form of papers and posters during the twelfth triennial meeting of the Association Internationale pour la Peinture Murale Antique (AIPMA) held at Athens from September 16 through September 20, 2013. 120 participants were guests of Radboud University Nijmegen and the École Française d'Athènes, in collaboration with the Netherlands Institute at Athens, and the National Hellenic Research Foundation. In recent decades there has been a growing interest among researchers in the analysis of paintings in terms of their context rather than as expressions of art in and for itself. Therefore the conference focused on figural themes, and to the iconographical and iconological problems of paintings considered in relation to their specific contexts. Which messages images in wall painting, from the archaic to the late-antique period (ca 700 BC-AD 500) conveyed to contemporary viewers in specific contexts and how were they received. Many contributions in this volume zoom in on the rationale behind the use of specific motifs in wall paintings, the syntax of decorative systems in particular contexts, as well as specific fashions in the use of figural themes in determined areas or sites in the ancient world. Within the series of BABESCH supplements, this book is a sequel to the third one of 1993 which contains the proceedings of the fifth AIPMA conference in Amsterdam."--Back cover |

Abstract | <p><em>Picta Nilotica Romana</em> presents an in-depth analysis of Roman paintings with a Nilotic theme. The first part of the study introduces the classical texts on Egypt and provides an overview of landscape depiction in Roman art. After an outline of methodology, an iconographic-archaeological catalogue of the 74 paintings is developed, founded on specific scientific criteria, with a classification into three categories according to iconographic composition. The corpus is followed by an analysis of the archaeological contexts in which these paintings are found, an analysis of Nilotic iconographies and a definition of the ''Nilotic landscape''. The volume is also completed by an iconographic apparatus and several maps showing geographical and chronological spread.</p> |

Abstract | <p><em>Life along Communication Routes from the Roman Period to the Middle Ages</em> is the result of the conference Roads and Rivers 2 held at the Institute of Archaeology in Zagreb in 2020, enriched with additional invited contributions. The volume presents the latest research on Roman roads, not just in terms of their basic infrastructure but also exploring various aspects of life that were connected with it, from the Imperial period to that of decline, acculturation and integration of new identities, within the three Roman provinces of Pannonia, Moesia and Dalmatia. Within this area, various studies of new finds, alongside new observations and ideas are presented. They add to our knowledge not just of the Roman roads themselves but also about roadside stations and other facilities in various landscape contexts (such as Mediterranean and continental areas). The contributions also investigate the distribution of goods and ideas from the Roman period to the Middle Ages, and deal with different aspects of life as it developed and was transformed along Roman roads.</p> |

Abstract | What ambitions lay behind Roman provincial governance? How did these change over time and in response to local conditions? To what extent did local agents facilitate and contribute to the creation of imperial administrative institutions? The answers to these questions shape our understanding of how the Roman empire established and maintained hegemony within its provinces. This issue of imperial hegemony is particularly acute for the period during which the political apparatus of the Roman Republic was itself in crisis and flux--precisely the period during which many provinces first came under Roman control. Imperial Power, Provincial Government, and the Emergence of Roman Asia, 133 BCE-14 CE uses a case study of the province of Asia to focus closely on the formation and evolution of the Roman empire's administrative institutions. Comparatively well-excavated, Asia's rich epigraphy lends itself to this detailed study, while the region's long history of autonomous civic diplomacy and engagement with a range of Roman actors provide vital evidence for assessing the ways in which Roman empire and hegemony affected conditions on the ground in the province. Asia's unique history, moving from allied kingdom to regularly assigned provincia to a reconquered and reorganized territory, offers an insight into the complex workings of institutional formation. From an investigation of the institutions which emerged in the province over a long first century (133 BCE-14 CE), Bradley Jordan considers the discursive power of official utterances of the Roman state, and the strategies employed by local actors to negotiate a favourable relationship with the empire. , What ambitions lay behind Roman provincial governance?

Abstract | <p>How did the Maltese and Gozitans fare under Roman occupation? How were they treated by their new masters? And what did they do to appease them? What changes did the new political situation bring about in their lives? How did they respond and / or adapt? Was their religious identity in any way affected? How did they manoeuvre their loyalties to their own benefits? And how did they manage their own domestic affairs within the new political set-up?</p> <p><br> </p> <p>Though based essentially on epigraphical evidence, this study seeks to address the above and other questions through an exercise in which epigraphy and the archaeological record supplement each other. The results shed new light on the governing bodies of the Maltese islands in Roman times and the models they followed, those who administered them, the latter’s role and status, and also their relationship with and their significance for the rest of the population.</p> |

Abstract | Afin d’améliorer les conditions d’hygiène, de confort et d’agrément en milieu urbain, nombre de villes romaines de la Gaule se sont dotées d’importantes infrastructures servant à approvisionner en eau les quartiers et les monuments publics. À l’extrémité de la péninsule armoricaine, aux confins de l’Empire, à Vorgium (Carhaix, Finistère), l’aqueduc romain (ier-ive siècle) parcourt les molles croupes schisteuses du bassin de Châteaulin, à l’est de Carhaix, dans les Côtes-d’Armor et le Finistère. Si, de longue date, l’aqueduc a fait l’objet de mentions d’inégal intérêt, les connaissances restaient encore il y a peu très fragmentaires. À l’issue de vingt années de recherches, ce volume offre une vision complète de la gestion de l’eau dans cette ville. Il permet de reconstituer pas à pas les étapes et les vicissitudes de la réalisation d’un projet de grande ampleur pour amener l’eau courante à la fin du iie siècle, après une première tentative infructueuse au siècle précédent. La description minutieuse des différentes sections de ces deux canalisations ouvre sur une série d’analyses traitant des vestiges des deux ouvrages d’art, l’un souterrain et l’autre aérien, de la diversité des modes de construction, des choix stratégiques des tracés et des évaluations de débit en lien avec l’étude de la ressource. Le contexte naturel de cette adduction a eu un impact sur son fonctionnement mais aussi sur son étude hydraulique, imposant l’élaboration d’une méthodologie adaptée à l’absence de dépôts calcaires. La mise en relation des adductions avec les infrastructures consommatrices, thermes, fontaines et, au bout de la chaîne, les égouts reste ici au stade de l’esquisse, à la mesure de notre perception encore trop incomplète de la ville antique et de ses équipements publics. Une contribution majeure à l’étude des aqueducs romains de la Gaule. |

Abstract | The publication presents the functions of the SLAG software created to recreate historical metallurgical processes. SLAG allows for determining the smelting temperature, the viscosity of the metallurgical melt, and the oxygen and sulfur fugacities during smelting. With software, both liquidus temperature and melt viscosity can be calculated using different models, covering the range of chemical compositions of historical slags as wide as possible. Based on thermodynamic calculations, SLAG allows the performance of O2 and S2 fugacity calculations in the temperature range of 1000–2000 K (727–1727°C). The range of applicability of other properties (viscosity and liquidus temperature) depends only on the limitations of individual models. Using SLAG, it is also possible to create predominance area diagrams (PADs) and diagrams that consider the viscosity's dependence on temperature for slag of a given chemical composition. Based on glass transition temperature (Tg) and melt fragility, it is also possible to reconstruct the conditions that prevailed during the various stages of historical glass manufacturing processes. |

Abstract | Etonnamment, après le début du deuxième siècle, les peintures corinthiennes subissent des changements radicaux indiquant une cessation de liens artistiques directs avec l’ouest, une situation qui semble se mainte nir jusqu’au IVe siècle. Certains aspects spécifiques de technique et de matériaux dans les peintures plus tar dives à Corinthe manifestent des affinités avec la peinture grecque hellénistique antérieure: il y a donc un changement dans les liens artistique avec les ateliers locaux de la Méditerranée au II e siècle après J.-C. Du point esthétique, cependant, les peintures les plus récentes de Corinthe, des II et III<sup>e</sup>siècles, possèdent de profondes |

Abstract | This dataset contains archaeological and heritage sites of the Marmarica region (NE-Libya/NW-Egypt) ranging from the Late Bronze to the Roman times. It has been developed in the framework of the PERAIA project, which aims to analyse the long-term history and interaction patterns along the harsh environments of north-eastern Africa. The records contain accurate geographic location of sites, including place names, typology, chronology, and metadata of documented remains, along with information regarding the environmental and ecological context. Additionally, the dataset accounts for the specificities of the region’s varying environmental conditions and their potential impact on archaeological heritage. All this information associated with each archaeological site was collected from published field data surveys, maps, archaeological reports, and it was subsequently cross-checked with historical aerial photographs and satellite imagery to detect, and to register known and unknown sites within the study area. |

Abstract | This is a detailed study of the archaeology of Roman Winchester—Venta Belgarum, a major town in the south of the province of Britannia— and its development from the regional (civitas) capital of the Iron Age people, the Belgae, who inhabited much of what is now central and southern Hampshire. The archaeology of the Winchester area in prehistory is considered, and so too is the later evidence from the town, between the end of organized Roman life shortly after 400 and the foundation, c.650, of the church later known as Old Minster. At the heart of this account is the publication of the relevant phases of the sites excavated in 1961–71 by the Winchester Excavations Committee, and of the finds recovered from these excavations. Volume 1 (Excavations) outlines previous work of relevance, and describes the WEC excavations and the post-excavation analysis of the discoveries, including full reports on the prehistoric, Roman, and post-Roman (to c.650) phases of the 14 sites excavated in 1961–71, with gazetteers for Roman Winchester, listing and describing all significant observations of the defences, and the streets and buildings within the walls. Volume 2 (Finds) presents about 4000 of the finds from the excavations of 1961–71, with additional significant objects from earlier excavations in Winchester or other Winchester collections. Finds are described and discussed by era and type, with coins and selected pottery followed by objects grouped by industry or purpose. Concordances list these finds by site and phase or by material. |

Abstract | The present work encompasses an analysis of Claudius’ activities in the provinces of the western Empire in order to get an idea of his political attitude in a broader context and see how his interests in the provinces influence the urban works. The first aim of the project is to find structures, urban development and changes in the cities which are directly connected to Claudius. The second goal is a reflection on planning issues and strategies adopted by the emperor. In particular It was conducted a comprehensive examination of new buildings or additions to prior ones (with statues for example) and the underlying intentions as well as how and in which way the prototypes in Italy influenced the construction in the provinces. The last aim is connected to Venturi’s work who deals with his activities in Italy and in particular at Rome and Ravenna. I retrieve if the trends found by Venturi are applicable also in the provinces and I try to find new ones as well which can explain his political actions. |
