Lucija Grahek,Pezdirčeva njiva v Podzemlju. Železna doba od Podzemlja do Vinice / Pezdirčeva njiva in Podzemelj. Iron Age from Podzemelj to Vinica.(Opera Instituti Archaeologici Sloveniae 50)Ljubljana 2025ISBN 978-961-05-1072-7 456 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb. / num. colour and b/w-figs., 29,7 x 21 cm; kartoniert/hardcoverPodzemelj in Bela Krajina region have long been recognised as one of the key and best-researched Iron Age centres of the Dolenjska Hallstatt culture. The recently excavated large cemetery at Pezdirčeva njiva, situated on the north-western slope beneath the hillfort on Kučar, opens a new chapter in the study of this centre and the wider Dolenjska region. Burials at the site begin only in the 5th century BCE and continue uninterrupted until the early 1st century BCE. This monograph provides the first comprehensive publication of modern excavations of graves belonging to the Vinica cultural sphere, which until now had not been systematically analysed. The volume brings together the results of several years of fieldwork directed by Otmar Kovač and the author, and presents detailed documentation of more than 180 graves with rich assemblages of grave goods. The finds are illustrated on 85 plates, and a large-scale plan of the central part of the cemetery is included as an appendix. Analyses of funerary practices, costume, weaponry, pottery, and jewellery are complemented by a wide array of scientific studies assembled in Chapter 10. The monograph incorporates the results of pedological and geoarchaeological research (A. Prijatelj, H. Grčman, R. Turniški) and conservation–archaeometallurgical examinations of non-ceramic finds (N. Nemeček, M. Petrič, P. Fajfar, B. Šetina Batič, M. Nečemer). Additional contributions address textile remains (M. Gleba), archaeobotanical samples (T. Tolar), lithic finds (R. Brajkovič), and amber (M. Golec, Z. Golec Mírová, L. Kučera, J. Martínek). A particular strength of the monograph lies in its cultural and chronological synthesis, which situates Pezdirčeva njiva within the broader development of the Iron Age centre at Podzemelj and clarifies the structural and temporal differences between Late Hallstatt and Vinica-period graves. This comprehensive and interdisciplinary work significantly advances our understanding of settlement dynamics in Bela Krajina, from Podzemelj to Vinica, and provides new insights into cultural processes unfolding along the southeastern Alpine region during the Early and Late Iron Age.

Haim Gitler – Catharine Lorber – Jean-Philippe Fontanille, The Yehud Coinage. A Study and Die Classification of the Provincial Silver Coinage of Judah (Numismatic Studies and Researches [NSR] XII)Jerusalem 2023ISBN 978-965-598-229-9XI, 544 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 21 cm; kartoniert/hardcoverThis volume presents a die study of the provincial silver coinage of Judah in the late Persian, Macedonian, and early Hellenistic periods. It offers correct descriptions of the coins, their designs, and their inscriptions; enumerates the obverse and reverse dies identified for each of the 44 recorded types; and explains the probable sequence of the issues as deduced from iconographic associations and die links. The iconography of the coin types is examined in depth, with comparisons to motifs in Greek, Persian, and ancient Near Eastern art, including other local coinages and sources in Judahite material culture. The monograph also analyzes data relating to the metrology, metal content, and circulation of the coinage. Overall, the study attempts to place the Yehud coinage in its historical context and to define its role in the economy of the ancient province of Judah.
Yoav Farhi, The City of Gaza in the Roman Period. The Numismatic Evidence: First Century BCE–Third Century CE (Corpus Nummorum Palaestinensium VI)Jerusalem 2025ISBN 978-965-7849-39-2XVI + 484 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 21 cm; kartoniert/hardcoverThis book is a comprehensive discussion examining the production and significance of the coinage struck by the city of Gaza under Roman rule from the conquest of this region by Pompey (64/3 BCE) to the end of the municipal minting in the second quarter of the third century (241/2 CE). The data presented are based on the study of some 4494 bronze and silver coins minted in Gaza during the Roman period. As many specimens as possible were located during some 20 years of a through and wide search, at various publications and in public and private collections especially in the Middle East, Europe and the USA. The catalogue presents 318 types with hundreds of variants and the photographs of 833 coins. This is the first time that such comprehensive research has been conducted regarding a polis in Roman Palestine with a vast volume of minting as in the case of Gaza. This research, which examines the coinage of the largest and most important city in southern Roman Palestine, contributes not only to a better understanding of the city itself, but also can offer new perspectives on the broad subject of city coins of the Roman period, and especially those of this region.
Haim Gitler – Mati Johananoff – Oren Tal, A Corpus of Samarian Coinage from the Persian Period, Volumes I & II (Numismatic Studies and Researches [NSR] XIII and XIV) Jerusalem 2025ISBN 978-965-7849-41-5vol. I [= NSR, vol. XIII]: 254 S./pp., Illustrationen/figures vol. II [= NSR, vol. XIV]: 340 S./pp., Illustrationen/figuresThis two-volume monograph, A Corpus of Samarian Coinage, is the definitive culmination of a major research program focused on the Samarian minting authority during the Persian period. This coinage represents one of the earliest and most varied official coinages produced in the southern Levant, likely being issued from the late fifth century BCE until after the Greco-Macedonian conquest. While building on earlier scholarship, this work offers a substantive re-evaluation of the field. It incorporates numerous newly identified coin types and establishes a robust, modern classification system essential for all future study. The data is based on an exhaustive, multi-year study of the entire corpus of known Samarian issues, involving the global examination of specimens in publications and in public and private collections.

I: 808 S./pp., Illustrationen/figures; kartoniert / hardcovervol. II: 756 S./pp., Illustrationen/figures; kartoniert / hardcoverThere is much magic, beauty, and challenge in numismatics, but the Roman coinage remains my one and only undisputed favorite. For more than 50 years, I have been collecting valuable information and I can confidently say that I have gathered the largest database of Roman coins, with facts about millions of pieces, currently available in private collections or expositions and archives of museums, with essential details on tens of thousands of auctions, eBay sales, and many other sources. I was fortunate to have collected this database during a time when, thanks to the rapidly developing metal detecting methods and technologies, many coins and troves were found around the world, as if trying to fill the gaps in the great puzzle of Roman Republican, Imperatorial, and Imperial coinage, thus providing a more complete picture of Roman coins and mint craft. To begin with, I published a few books on Greek Imperial and Roman Provincial Coinage, such as the three volumes of “Greek Imperial Coinage”, covering the provincial coinage at the mints on the Balkan Peninsula, as well as the two volumes of “The Coinage of Philippopolis”, covering the complete mintcraft in this ancient city. However, the main part of my database consists of coins issued at the central Roman mints. As the process of identification and classification recently became almost unmanageable due to the vast number of Roman coins discovered so far, I decided to publish the already available information in catalogs, initially focusing on the Roman Republican coinage. This work aims to examine the Roman Republican coinage, covering the period from the irregularly shaped pieces of bronze known as Aes Rude (a.k.a. Aes Infectum or Imperfectum) to the period 8th – 3rd century BC and the beginning of Roman Imperatorial coinage (it will be considered in a separate volume), roughly around 49 BC. The purpose of this catalogue does not lie in providing a complete analysis of all aspects of the Republican coinage. In his work “Roman Republican coinage”, Michael H. Crawford dwells in detail on this topic and needs not be repeated. The current book simply aims to summarize the data already presented by the prominent scholars М. Crawford, А. Banti, L. Simonetti, E. Sydenham, E. Babelon, and all those who have contributed to the study and systematization of the Roman Republican coinage. The book also supplements the existing research by presenting many new coins that lack any previous description, together with their unpublished variants. It also covers a good number of hitherto unknown inscriptions, control marks, symbols, letters, or digits discovered after the publication of the fundamental works by the authors mentioned above. Apart from the main coin types, the classification presented herein describes all available varieties, including those absent in Crawford’s research, each marked with a separate number. All hybrid Republican coins for which I have found sufficient information are analyzed as well. A complete description of the coins issued by the mints during The Social War – the so-called denarii of the Marsic Confederation – is also added in this catalog. A fundamental principle I try to follow in my work is to compose each book in a manner that I would personally expect to see for any such data arranged in a catalog. My presentation also follows the requirements and recommendations gathered through discussions with colleagues and collectors from all over the world. Hence, the key principle of this catalog is to facilitate quick identification of any already acquired coins or, alternatively, provide complete data on items one might wish to acquire. Therefore, all the presented coins are arranged based on the metal they are made of, i.e., in the following sequence: gold, silver, bronze. Coins made of the same metal are further classified by their years of issue, as well as by their denominations. The design of a coin type is displayed in a photo adjacent to its description. Photos are provided on a 1:1 scale, apart from a few exceptions, where the scale is stated at the base. The year of issue is followed by the average value based on the weight of all coins of a specific variety. Since weight may vary within a wider range for some of the bronze items presented, the minimum, average, and maximum weight of the specimen is also provided. After a detailed description of the obverse and reverse for a given coin, all references for the same are duly listed, followed by the number of specimens used. Below each description, you will also find information about the specific prices at which the coin was sold, depending on its quality. Different prices are given for the different quality types: F (fine), VF (very fine), EF (extra fine), and MS (mint state). Furthermore, each quality type is featured with the minimum, average, and maximum price (min/avg/max) at which the coin was previously sold. All prices are in euros or have been converted to euros based on the exchange rate on the date the coin was sold, if it was originally sold in another currency. A detailed Appendix is enclosed at the end of this catalog, specifying all inscriptions, control marks, digits, or symbols visible on any Republican coins. After each of these marks, you will find listed the pages where the same symbol appears. For faster and easier identification, the Crawford numbering is included in the beginning of the Appendix, along with the corresponding numbering as per this catalog.
Haim Gitler – David Jeselsohn – Mati Johananoff – Oren Tal, The Jeselsohn Collection of Coins of the Holy Land. Volume I: Hacksilber, Persian and Early Hellenistic CoinageJerusalem 2024ISBN 978-965-217-465-9IX + 434 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 21 cm; kartoniert/hardcoverThe book contains a catalogue of the largest collection of early coinages minted locally in the southern Levant during the fifth-fourth centuries BCE. The two centuries of Achaemenid dominion in the Near East, from 538 until 332 BCE, constitute a crucial period in the history of the southern part of the Fifth Persian Satrapy, also known as “Beyond the River” (‘Abar Naharâ). This period is marked by a profound transformation in the economic, political and cultural life of the region. From the mid-fifth century BCE we witness a transition in the means of payment from the use of weighed metal (mostly silver) to that of foreign coinage, and, subsequently, to local issues. The issuing of local coins by civic minting authorities should be seen as a part of a longer process of monetization by which the use of precious metals in various shapes for economic transactions was transformed into the use of coins for such transactions in the southern Levant. The current volume, covers the Persian and Early Hellenistic Coinage, i.e. from the Persian (Achaemenid) and early Hellenistic (Ptolemaic and Seleucid) periods, roughly 450 to 250 BCE, as well as three Hacksilber and jewelry hoards and varia. This includes the coinage of Philistia, Samaria, Judah and possibly Dor and Edom.

Turhan Kaçar,The Council of Nicaea. A Political and Intellectual History Ankara 2025 ISBN 978-975-16-0372-2258 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 24 x 17 cm; kartoniert/hardcover The Council of Nicaea stands as one of the most decisive turning points in the history of Christianity. Yet, within Turkish historical scholarship, it has long remained a largely neglected subject - articularly when considered through the lenses of Roman political history and ancient intellectual history. To date, the council has not been examined as an independent topic within these frameworks. The limited number of studies that do address Nicaea neither offer a comprehensive historical narrative nor evaluate the council’s textual production from an intellectual-historical perspective. As a result, Turkish historiography continues to fall short not only in answering fundamental questions – such as what actually transpired at the Council of Nicaea, how debates were conducted, and how its decisions were interpreted and reinterpreted across subsequent centuries and cultures – but also in providing the historical context necessary to pose these questions in the first place. This collective volume seeks to address this gap. By offering a coherent and interdisciplinary discussion of the Council of Nicaea and its broader political, theological, and intellectual dimensions, the book aims to make a modest yet meaningful contribution to Turkish scholarship on the occasion of the 1700th anniversary of the council.
Ercan Verim,Batı Karadeniz'deki Bizans Kiliseleri Ankara 2026 ISBN 978-625-8550-07-8505 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 24 x 17 cm; broschiert/softcoverThis book has been written to lift the veil of mystery surrounding the Byzantine past hidden beneath the lush green canopy of the Western Black Sea. This book, the product of extensive surface surveys conducted across a wide area covering the provinces of Bartın, Bolu, Düzce, and Zonguldak, offers a comprehensive inventory of Byzantine-period churches, including some recorded in other provinces of the region. Our research aimed to handle every form of material evidence belonging to the period – from the plan of a church and its masonry techniques to architectural decorations and brick fragments – with a holistic approach. Within the pages of this book, you will observe that Byzantine architecture in the Western Black Sea embodies a surprising dichotomy: on one hand, structures that reflect the strong influence of the capital, Constantinople, and remain faithful to the imperial style in their architectural and decorative conception; on the other, a pragmatic approach relying entirely on local resources for the selection of construction materials. This situation reveals the dynamic and multi-layered relationship between the capital and the periphery. One of the most striking findings of our study is the chronological density. The fact that the vast majority of structures in the region belong to the Early and Middle Byzantine periods, while building activities – aside from some repairs and additions – almost completely ceased in the Late Byzantine period, narrates not only an architectural history but also a political one. The transition of the region to Turkish rule in the Late Byzantine period, except for a few coastal fortresses and small settlements, stands as the most tangible evidence of how the Byzantine presence in these lands gradually came to an end. This book is an important step toward bringing the forgotten and fading Byzantine cultural heritage of the Western Black Sea into the scientific world. I hope that this work will serve as a reference for readers interested in regional history and provide a foundation for more in-depth research in the future.

Farbabb./num. colour-figs., 29,7 x 21 cm; broschiert/softcoverNeolithic anthropomorphic figurines and anthropomorphic depictions of all kinds, as well as sculptures in general, are given due attention. This is because their informative value is specific and irreplaceable by other archaeological sources, because it touches on a certain segment of the life of the society of that time, namely spiritual, or even sacred life. At the same time, it turns out that the position in the hierarchy of social values, which is given to them, can influence the find context from which they come. Therefore, if it is known at all (often it is not, or it is only incompletely definable), it is advisable to use it properly, i.e. to analyse and evaluate it as comprehensively as possible, as is the case, for example, with the assemblage of finds from Chabařovice, Vochov and Polešovice.

Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 29,7 x 21 cm; broschiert/softcoverDer Hügel von Gâvurtepe liegt im Bezirk Alaşehir der Provinz Manisa am Fuße des Bozdağlar-Gebirges und zählt zu den bedeutendsten Siedlungen Westanatoliens in der Antike. Ausgrabungen, die zwischen 1987 und 1993 unter der Leitung der Museumsdirektion Manisa und der wissenschaftlichen Führung von Prof. Dr. Recep Meriç durchgeführt wurden, enthüllen die Geschichte der Siedlung von der Kupfersteinzeit bis zur späten Bronzezeit. Dieser Hügel an den Hängen des Bozdağlar-Gebirges ist nicht nur eine archäologische Stätte, sondern auch ein greifbares Zeugnis des kulturellen Übergangs zwischen der Ägäisregion und anderen Teilen Anatoliens.Die bei Ausgrabungen freigelegten Bereiche Südgraben und Megaron geben mit ihren architektonischen Anlagen und reichen archäologischen Funden Aufschluss über Glaubensvorstellungen, Produktion und Alltag jener Zeit. Insbesondere die im heiligen Bereich gefundenen Opfergefäße, Idole, Siegel und Kultgegenstände aus der frühen Bronzezeit II liefern wichtige Hinweise auf die religiösen Rituale Westanatoliens. Die im Vergleich zu anderen Siedlungen der Region einzigartige monumentale Architektur des Megaron zeugt von der sozialen Hierarchie und der strategischen Bedeutung der Siedlung.Diese Arbeit präsentiert detailliert die Ergebnisse sechsjähriger systematischer Ausgrabungen am Hügel von Gâvurtepe und leistet durch Stratigraphie, Keramiktypologie, Funde aus sakralen Stätten und chronologische Auswertungen einen wertvollen Beitrag zur Archäologie Westanatoliens. Die mögliche Verbindung der Siedlung mit der in hethitischen Quellen erwähnten Kaiserstadt des Königreichs Mira ermöglicht eine Neuinterpretation der Beziehungen zwischen der Ägäis und Anatolien.„Alaşehir Gâvurtepe Höyük (1987-1993 Kazıları Sonuçları)“ ist nicht bloß ein Ausgrabungsbericht, sondern eine umfassende Studie zu den prähistorischen Kulturen Westanatoliens. Das Werk bietet Wissenschaftlern, Forschern und allen, die sich mit der Vergangenheit auseinandersetzen, einen Leitfaden zur Entschlüsselung der jahrtausendealten Geschichte der Ägäis.
