Eine hervorragend nationale Wissenschaft
Das Fachgebiet "Ur- und Frühgeschichtliche Archäologie" erfuhr eine massive Förderung durch den nationalsozialistischen Staat, so durch die Einrichtung von zahlreichen neuen Lehrstühlen. Dieser Band widmet sich jedoch nicht in erster Linie dem Lebenslauf und dem politischen Verhalten von zehn exemplarisch untersuchten Hochschullehrern, sondern stellt sich bei einer kritischen Lektüre ihrer wissenschaftlichen Schriften die Frage, wie die Forscher vor, im und nach dem Dritten Reich gedacht und ihre wissenschaftlichen Ergebnisse formuliert haben. Es zeigt sich, daß sowohl die wissenschaftlichen Paradigmen, Fragestellungen und Schilderungen der vergangenenen Epochen der Ur- und Frühgeschichte als auch das sprachliche Vokabular längst vor 1933 entwickelt waren und auf das späte 19. und frühe 20. Jahrhundert zurückgingen und daß sich die Sprache erst lange nach Kriegsende wandelte.
Byzantium, Pliska, and the Balkans
MILLENNIUM pursues an interdisciplinary approach transcending historical eras. The editorial board and the advisory board represent a wide range of disciplines - contributions from art and literary studies are just as welcome as historical, theological and philosophical contributions on both the Latin and Greek and the Oriental cultures. The STUDIES present relevant monographs or collections of papers from across the whole range of topics. The YEARBOOK contains authoritative articles. As the links between the various articles are sketched out in a comprehensive editorial, their diversity is intended to encourage dialogue between the disciplines and national research cultures. MILLENNIUM does not publish individual reviews, but does on occasions produce literature surveys. The languages of publication are principally English and German, but articles in French, Italian and Spanish can also be accommodated.
Post-Roman Towns, Trade and Settlement in Europe and Byzantium: Byzantium, Pliska, and the Balkans
In this collection leading international authorities analyse the structures and economic functions of non-agrarian centres between ca. 500 and 1000 A.D. - their trade, their surrounding settlements, and the agricultural and cultural milieux. The thirty-one papers presented at an international conference held in Bad Homburg focus on recent archaeological discoveries in Central Europe (Vol. 1), as well as on those from southeastern Europe to Asia Minor (Vol. 2).

Archaeology of the Communist Era
This book contributes to better recognition and comprehension of the interconnection between archaeology and political pressure, especially imposed by the totalitarian communist regimes. It explains why, under such political conditions, some archaeological reasoning and practices were resilient, while new ideas leisurely penetrated the local scenes. It attempts to critically evaluate the political context and its impact on archaeology during the communist era world wide and contributes to better perception of the relationship between science and politics in general. This book analyzes the pressures inflicted on archaeologists by the overwhelmingly potent political environment, which stimulates archaeological thought and controls the conditions for professional engagement. Included are discussions about the perception of archaeology and its findings by the public.
Digging for Hitler
During the 1930s, in the build up to the Second World War, the Nazis established a band of specialists, the SS-Ahnenerbe, under the command of Heinrich Himmler and Hermann Wirth. Their aim was nothing less than to prove the superiority of the Aryan race, and with it the unique right of the German people to rule Europe. The occult figured as a key feature in many of these increasingly desperate quack research efforts. Part science, part espionage, and part fantasy. Archaeological expeditions were sent to Iceland, Tibet, Kafiristan, North Africa, Russia, the Far East, Egypt, and even South America and the Arctic. The Nazi Ancestral Heritage Societys chief administrator was Dr Wolfram Sievers, ...
