S/W-Abb. / num. b/w-figs., 27,5 x 19,5 cm; broschiert/softcover At the end of the 19th century the eyes are turned towards Myrina in the area of Aeolis, because of thousands of terra cotta figurines laid out in tombs of its necropolis. The necropolis of Myrina thus became the antique site most important, whereas research on the close sites, were somewhat forgotten. Today, of new excavations in the area of Aeolis help us has to understand the art of the coroplaste, which until was now limited only has Myrina. The ville of Aegae, located in this area, or of the French archaeologists had discovered a small number of figurines in 1882, was the object during many years of plunderings of figurines, in particular in years 1950-1960. Certain villagers tell that their fathers and grandfathers had put at the day during this same time, of the painted figurines of big size, then sold to the American soldiers. To date, one still does not know what became the catch figurines. The excavations and the research currently undertaken in the town of Aegae put at the day of many figurines of great quality representing various subjects. These many discoveries, seem to confirm the importance of the art of the coroplastie of Aegae. We have a larger pallet of examples which show than the production of terra cotta was very developed and very active in Aegae. It does not remain about it less than it is necessary for us to find the workshops in order to be able to prove that in due form. The majority of works are dated from the hellenistic period. Especially with 2nd century before J-C, the production out of the city would have increased. It is not only the case for Aegae but also for the other cities of Anatolia Western. Works of Aegae are witnesses of enrichissement of art coroplaste in Anatolia Western during these centuries. We suppose that these terracotta figurines were produced in the city. Indeed, works discovered reflect the marked taste of the coroplastie, the concern nuns of the inhabitants to create figurines and plates representing the Gods and the Goddesses. The figurines with the religious motif discovered in votive pits of the building of Bouleuterion, reflect ritual inhabitants.

Farb- und S/W-Abb. / num. colour and b/w-figs., kartoniert/hardcover Utilising a systematic methodology, this volume offers an in-depth analysis of various aspects of mortuary practices, including kurgan stratigraphy, the orientation of the deceased, bioanthropological and genetic evidence, grave goods, and chronological assessments. The research identifies distinct phases of burial rituals, categorising them into pre-Yamnaya, Early and Late Yamnaya, Katakombnaya, Middle Bronze Age/Mnogovalikovaya, and Late Bronze Age/Sabatinovka-Noua-Coslogeni, spanning the time from the 4th to the 2nd millennia BC. The insights gleaned from this research reveal the intricate relationships between local customs and the influences of steppe populations over time. The study sheds light on the complexities of mobility, interaction, and cultural admixture, as well as the evolution of burial practices and material culture during the Bronze Age. Bronze Age Kurgans in Southern Romania is poised to become a vital resource for scholars interested in the dynamics of prehistoric societies, offering perspectives on how cultural identities were shaped and transformed across centuries. This volume, the fourth of the ‘Yamnaya Impact on Prehistoric Europe’ Series, represents the proceedings of the session #196: "No man travels alone, he takes himself along: Yamnaya transmission and/or transformation during the 3rd millennium BC Europe" held at the Budapest EAA Virtual Meeting in 2020. The session was co-organised by the editors of this volume together with colleagues Todor Valchev from the Yambol Regional Historical Museum (Bulgaria) and Piotr Włodarczak from the Institute of Archaeology and Ethnology of the Cracow branch of the Polish Academy of Sciences (Poland). The session aimed to focus on archaeological approaches to material culture and ritual practices to explore how steppe transmissions unfolded during the 3rd millennium BC.The volume presents the work of 25 researchers from various European countries, Japan, and the United States, united in 11 articles. The themes discussed cover a large portion of the European continent, from the Lower Don steppes in the east to Northern Central Europe in the west, and a time span of approximately two millennia. The research presented opens new perspectives on micro-regional traits, regional particularities, and supra-regional complexities of steppe transmissions in the 4th and 3rd millennia BC. 324 S./pp., zahlr.

Dorotty Nyulas, Ironwork Hoards in Roman DaciaCluj – Napoca 2024ISBN 978-606-020-841-9336 S./pp., Farb- und S/W-Abb./colour and b/w-figs., 28 x 22 cm; kartoniert/hardcover The present volume is an improved and slightly rearranged version of the author’s doctoral thesis, which was publicly defended at the Babeş-Bolyai University, Cluj-Napoca, in September 2023. The objective of the thesis was the in-depth analysis of hoarding and depositing ironwork in Roman Dacia through a detailed re-examination and comparative study of the known assemblages. While the terminology regarding hoards is far from settled, in this work, ‘hoard’ and ‘deposition’ were used as general terms denoting collections of objects found as a group, associated with a single context. The word ‘hoard’ was mainly used to refer to assemblages that were rather clearly concealed, whereas I preferred ‘deposition’ as a more neutral term in the case of collections where a ritual background might be supposed. However, every time I wished to indicate an interpretation, this was emphasised through adjectives, such as safety hoards, votive depositions etc. Occasionally, to further stress the inclusion of all assemblage types, both terms were listed (‘hoards and depositions’), but mainly they are used as synonyms. ‘Ironwork’ is more easily defined; it stands for any type of object or fragment made of iron, ranging from tools and household items to scrap. Consequently, ironwork hoards are collections discovered as closed assemblages consisting of (almost exclusively) iron objects and fragments.

Andrei Opaiț, The Sacred Area Sector Roman Coarseware (1st - 7th centuries) (Histria XVI)Cluj – Napoca 2024ISBN 978-606-020-839-6184 S./pp., zahlr. Farb- und S/W-Abb./num. colour and b/w-figs., 29,7 x 21 cm; kartoniert/hardcover The history and evolution of the old Milesian colony Histria is quite well known from numerous articles and an impressive series of monographs that have discussed many archaeological discoveries from the Archaic to the Roman era. There is no need, therefore, to summarize their contents here. This study of the coarseware ceramics from the Sacred Area sector called also “sector T”, at Histria seeks to bring to light an archaeological material generally neglected by the publications of this sector. Because Roman ceramics were not usually retained in the course of excavations in the Sacred Area sector, the number of pieces in this study is smaller than the number analyzed in a relatively recent monograph focusing on more thoroughly-collected Roman ceramics from other sectors. We can add numerous other ceramic publications that have appeared since this monograph especially in recent years. In turn, the “Sacred Area sector “ sector has been discussed in numerous publications, and summarized in two recent articles published by A. Avram and his collaborators, and one published by F. Munteanu. Although the focus of the former article is on the Archaic, Classical, and Hellenistic periods, when the temples in this area were in use, several pages are also dedicated to the Roman period when this sector changed its sacred character and became, for a short period, an artisanal area and then until the 7th century AD a residential district. The second article pays more attention to the Roman quarter, which featured a large “Constantinian house” covering 380 m², with four rooms and an internal court with peristyle, built perhaps during the second half of the 4th century. During the 6th century this edifice was repurposed and subdivided into many rooms with storage functions. Perhaps also in the 6th century, a series of other buildings-perhaps simple houses-were constructed to the south of this edifice, containing dolia, mortaria, and many vasa potatoria, coquinatoria and amphorae.

Farbabb./num. colour figs., 24 x 18,5 cm; broschiert/softcover A Greek-English bilingual catalogue published as part of the new series of archaeological exhibitions organized by the Museum of Cycladic Art called “Human Histories” for the exhibition “Kykladitisses: Untold stories of women in the Cyclades”. The catalogue presents the transformations and the multiple roles of women that have defined the history of the Archipelago through time highlighting their importance at a time when women continue to assert their independence and respect for their specificity within the modern community, the free choice of the roles that express each of them and their liberation from stereotypes that survive in the common consciousness despite the long struggles of past centuries. The catalogue is divided into two volumes. The first volume contains 520 pages in which all the artefacts in the exhibition are illustrated in each section in extremely high quality and resolution photographs, together with a brief explanation giving all the details of their identity. The long introductory text explaining the concept of the exhibition and the sections is written by the two curators of the exhibition, and the volume concludes with five essays by leading female scholars of Cycladic culture through time. The detailed scientific documentation and publication of each object in extensive essays is included in the second volume of the catalogue.

Abb./num. figs., 30 x 21,5 cm; kartoniert/hardcover Between 1882 and 1941, Kingdoms of Serbia and Yugoslavia hallmarked a great amount of gold coinage. This somewhat peculiar practice was regulated by law and executed by state offices using several hallmarks, some of which are properly documented and presented here for the first time. The author describes not only the development of the hallmarking practice itself, but also its historic and ethnographic backgrounds, in particular the use of gold ducats in the ethnic jewellery of the region. Based mainly on his former collection, fully presented here in high-quality colour photographs, this book, again for the first time, provides a full catalogue of all hallmarks used in different assay offices and all hallmarked gold coins known to the author.
