Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 28,5 x 20 cm; kartoniert/hardcoverbulgarisch mit einer ausführlichen englischen Zusammenfassung /bulgarian with an extended summyary in English Volume 2 presents the results of the excavations of the complexes from the Roman and Late Antique periods: from the early 2nd to the late 4th - early 5th century. This is the time when life was most intense and the buildings had a representative character. Attention has focused on the architectural structures: well preserved walls, some with frescoes, mortar floors and hypocausts. Space is given over to lead and ceramic water pipes and to numerous miscellaneous sewage structures. Three periods of construction have been distinguished, the second being a residence in which high government officials, the provincial governor, merchants and others who visited the camp of the First Italian Legion stayed. Movable finds are included insofar as they support the dating of the architectural remains and are important in refining the chronology. All the epigraphic monuments discovered over the years have been collected, the rare seals on building ceramics, diptychs and graffiti are presented, the data on the frescoes found have been systematized, etc.

Bilyana Marinova Torbatova, Pagan Cult Sites in the Lands Between the Danube and the Balkan Mountains (early-1st – late-4th Century AD) /Езически култови обекти в земите между Дунава и Балкана (началото на I - края на IV в.)Sofia 2024ISBN 978-619-7712-19-3 836 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./ num. colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 22 cm; broschiert/softcoverin bulgarischer Sprache mit einer englischen Zusammenfassungin Bulgarian with summary in English The appearance of this work is due to the absence in the previous historiography of a generalized study on the pagan cult infrastructure from the period 1st - 4th century AD in the lands between the Danube and the Balkan Mountains, and is based on the availability of sufficient information in the scientific literature and museum funds, allowing identification according to established criteria of a very large number of temples, shrines and cult places. The available information includes data from archaeological excavations, finds of votive reliefs and other votive monuments, epigraphic evidence, numismatic data and a limited number of ancient written records. In different periods of time, the lands covered in this study included parts of (or, less commonly, entirely) different Roman administrative units: in the first half of the 1st century AD – parts of the province of Moesia and the client kingdom of Thrace; from the end of the 1st century AD – part of the provinces of Upper Moesia and Thrace, as well as the entire province of Lower Moesia; from the second half of the 3rd century – part of Riparian Dacia province and the entire Lower Moesia; from the very end of the 3rd/beginning of the 4th century these lands were already divided between the provinces of Riparian Dacia, Second Moesia and Scythia. Several cases of changing the route of the borders between the different provinces were also documented, with a tendency in the 2nd century to expand Lower Moesia at the expense of Upper Moesia (to the west) and Thrace (to the south), and in the 3rd century – to reduce the territory of this administrative unit in order to create initially one, and subsequently two new provinces in its lands. The purpose of this work is to present as complete a picture as possible of the pagan cult infrastructure in the lands between the Danube and the Balkan mountain range during the 1st - 4th century. The study covers sites of all types, located in cities, military camps, settlements of different ranks, villa mansions and individual rural households, as well as those with roadside character and isolated location in the then settlement system. The fulfilment of the set goal implies in the first place the identification of the sites of pagan cult ritual. The aim is to present as much information as possible about each of the recognized cult sites, and this also determines the direction of the specific research tasks: ۰ accurate location data, with particular attention to the topographic characteristics of the terrain; ۰ clarification of the location in the settlement system, with a brief overview of the main points in the development of the settlement unit to which some of the sites are related; ۰ data on the organization of the cult space; ۰ typological definition; ۰ history of use; ۰ analysis of the votive material in order to establish the revered cults and attempt to determine the leading one among them, as well as the ethnic and social composition of the users of each particular cult site.

It proved a challenging undertaking in a year marked by COVID-19 restrictions, which was nevertheless fulfilled successfully thanks to the traditionally excellent partnership between Burgas Municipality and the National Archaeological Institute with Museum (Sofia). This time, the conference theme focused on conflicts and catastrophes – a rather thought-provoking topic in our opinion, the discussion of which is crucial for the deeper understanding of turbulent events that shaped the fate of ancient Thrace, and for the establishment of chronologies. We are grateful to all participants who contributed to this discussion in various ways and especially to those who submitted their manuscripts for publication in the present volume.

History, tradition, and iconography – the book puts together an extremely valuable material for both mosaic artists and restorers, as well as the wider public.

In his professional milieu, Peter Berzobohaty-Gastl is a widely-known restorer of mural painting and historic plaster with an emphasis on mosaics, having a remarkable professional experience. He was the main coordinator of the international projects of conservation for the mosaics of the Great Palace of Constantinople and Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, as well as a visiting professor at the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna. Peter Berzobohaty-Gastl is extremely passionate about the production technique of Late-Antique and Byzantine mosaics, and this book presents the results of his research spanning over more than 30 years.
