Non-Intrusive Methodologies for Large Area Urban Research
Papers address a major challenge in archaeology: non-intrusive research in pursuit of a deeper understanding of urban areas can be richly informative and cost-effective. Geophysical surveys, UAVs, exposed historic structures and the exhaustive examination of archival records can all play a vital role and their implementation is considered here.
Legacy of Life
Ancestors include: Gennaro DiNinni (ca. 1770-1830) of Palmoli, Chieti, Italy -- Stefano Pagano (fl. 1772) of Palmoli, Italy -- Domenico Bolognese (fl. 1740) of Palmoli, Italy -- Giuseppe Pascucci (ca. 1720-1801) of Parmoli, Italy -- Michael Bowerman (1711-1795), immigrant, of Northampton County, Pennsylvania -- William Good (d. 1779) of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania -- John Nicholas Bayer/Boyer (ca. 1760-1823) of Halifax, Pennsylvania -- John Powell/Paul (d. 1748) of Lancaster, Pennsylvania.

The Roman Audience
In an ambitious overview of a thousand years of history, from the formation of the city-state of Rome to the establishment of a fully Christian culture, T. P. Wiseman examines the evidence for the oral delivery of Roman 'literature' to mass public audiences.
Dependency and Social Inequality in Pre-Roman Italy
In the past, most studies on Pre-Roman societies in Italy (1st millennium BCE) focused on the elites, their representation and cultural contacts. The aim of this volume is to look at dependent and marginalized social groups, which are less visible and often even difficult to define (slaves, servants, freedmen, captives, ‚foreigners‘, athletes, women, children etc.). The methodological challenges connected to the study of such heterogeneous and scattered sources are addressed. Is the evidence representative enough for defining different forms of dependencies? Can we rely on written and pictorial sources or do they only reflect Greek and Roman views and iconographic conventions? Which social groups can’t be traced in the literary and archaeological record? For the investigation of this topic, we combined historical and epigraphical studies (Greek and Roman literary sources, Etruscan inscriptions) with material culture studies (images, sanctuaries, necropoleis) including anthropological and bioarchaeological methods. These new insights open a new chapter in the study of dependency and social inequality in the societies of Pre-Roman Italy.
Urbanization in the Mediterranean in the 9th to 6th Centuries BC
This volume from the "Acta Hyperborea" series of archaeological studies covers the topic of urbanization in the Mediterranean in the 9th to 6th centuries BC. "Acta Hyperborea" is a periodical by a group of classical archaeologists associated with Danish universities and museums. Although primarily a journal of classical archaeology, it also covers other fields in classical scholarship. One of the main objectives of the periodical is the interdisciplinary approach to promote a dialogue between historians, philologists and archaeologists.
