Chapter 2 deals with the evaluation of collected parts of field records from largely unpublished 1958–1960 excavations in the palace, as well as evaluation of some contemporary accounts. Chapter 3 represents an archaeological report on a recent survey, excavations, and re­excavations in the palace by the Archaeological Expedition to Wad Ben Naga. Chapters 4 and 5 comprise the analysis of all non-ceramic and ceramic finds, respectively, from both the previous and recent excavations. A catalogue of all recorded finds from the 1958–1960 excavations in the palace forms an appendix to the volume.The second part focuses on four research problems addressing different aspects of the structure. Chapter 6 concerns the architectural form of the palace. In chapter 7, chronological setting of various events and activities recorded in the spatial context of the palace is discussed. Chapter 8 is dedicated to various functions of the spatial context of the palace, both during the primary and secondary occupations. In chapter 9, positions of the palace at the site and in the socio-economic, political, and ideological landscape of the Meroitic kingdom are assessed.

Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 30 x 23,5 cm; kartoniert/hardcover The comprehensive and representative catalogue accompanies the exhibition „Mesopotamia. Kingdom of Gods and Demons“ at the Museum of Fine Arts, Budapest (4 October 2024 – 2 February 2025) and includes contributions from some of the most eminent Hungarian and international experts on the subject. The large-scale exhibition at the Museum of Fine Arts takes visitors to Mesopotamia in the first half of the first millennium BCE, where they can see magnificent reliefs from Assyrian palaces, such as the shining blue snake-dragon from the Ishtar Gate in Babylon and the glazed brick lions that adorned the procession route. The Mesopotamian world of gods and demons is brought to life through cylinder seals, statues and amulets made of minerals and rocks, but we also evoke the story of the flood from Mesopotamian mythology, the legendary figures of Nimrod and Ninus, and the Tower of Babel.The artefacts from Aššur, Babylon, Dūr-Šarrukīn and Kalḫu excavated in Mesopotamia come from major European collections, including the Vorderasiatisches Museum in Berlin, the Musée du Louvre and the Bibliothèque nationale de France in Paris, the Kunsthistoriches Museum in Vienna and the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek in Copenhagen (in addition to the collection of the Museum of Fine Arts).

Over this entire area, visible traces of fortifications, roads and settlements are still preserved, but numerous monuments still lay hidden underneath the earth. Despite the fact that the Roman frontiers crossed regions with different relief and climate, they constitute a whole in that they were designed to protect Roman territories. The research of these monuments and the preservation policy regarding them was and is unequal in the various presentday states on whose territory traces of the Roman frontier are to be found. Consequently, in the ‘80s of the 20th century, the idea of globally protecting the Roman frontiers, viewed as a unitary monument, was met. In 1987, Hadrian’s Wall in United Kingdom was declared a UNESCO monument. It was followed in 2005 by the German-Raetian sector, on which occasion the UNESCO committee decided to set up the ‘Frontiers of the Roman Empire’ site. This project through its complexity generated an interdisciplinary approach of the proposed subject stimulating such future attempts in the archaeological research field. By using the latest technical methods of non-destructive investigation the project did not damage the stratigraphy of the archaeological site obtaining instead a high amount of data otherwise time consuming judging from the archaeological excavations perspective contributing also to the preservation of the cultural heritage.

Kaunos Kbid 1966-2021 (englische Ausgabe / english edition)Istanbul 2024ISBN 978-625-6212-04-6VIII + 246 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./ num. colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 23 cm; kartoniert/hardcover While the numerous inscriptions unearthed at archaeological sites throughout the Eastem Mediterranean help to understand many aspects of the ancient world and its peoples, bilingual ones (Bilingue) are very special and valuable to linguists in deciphering ancient languages and understanding their structures. The Kaunos Bilingue, written in Carian and Ancient Greek in the 4th century BCE, made a great contribution to the understanding of the Carian language. Although the Carian alphabet superficially resembles the Ancient Greek alphabet, it differs in that some similarlooking letters take on different sounds in the language and there are a few letters specifıc to Carian. Moreover, the most striking part of this Bilingue, long before the use of Greek name Kaunos, is the use of the original name of the city, KBID, given to their city by the Carians, the indigenous people of Anatolia.

Farb-Abb. / num. colour figs., 30 x 22 cm; kartoniert/hardcoverbulgarisch mit englischer Zusammenfassungbulgarian with a summary in english The monograph examines 103 painted vessels discovered during the excavations of the necropolis of ancient Apollonia Pontica in the 1990s. The ceramic forms and images are examined in their archaeological and cultural-historical context. Created in classical Athens in the 5th-4th centuries BC, pictorial narratives on vessels played the role of one of the most influential media in the dissemination of the values of Athenian society. At the same time, they clearly capture the identity of the multicultural community that was formed on the territory of the Pontic city as a result of contacts with various centres in the Mediterranean world, with the inhabitants of Inner Thrace and with the powerful Thracian kingdoms in the area. The edition contains 233 illustrations and 10 tables with data on the context of the objects, the composition of the clay and statistical information.
