The Appearance of Things
In the heart of a metropolis, a ragtag team of weekend soccer players assumes the identity of Everyman, as personal misfortunes and money worries force them to share their miseries and question what they believe. In the sometimes comical process, they discover what it means to be human as the ordinary becomes extraordinary and they learn that love is real.
A Practical Guide to Residential & Commercial Building Inspections
A Practical Guide to Residential and Commercial Building Inspections is based on decades of my experience as a building inspector and general contractor as well as the wisdom of others who were kind enough to share their experiences with me. However, nothing can replace personal experience, for which reason this guide is not intended to be a substitute for professional training and should not be used as such, and it should never be construed as giving professional legal advice, for which it was never intended.
The Hellenistic West
Pathbreaking essays challenging the traditional focus on the eastern Mediterranean in the Hellenistic period and on Rome in the West.
The Chora of Metaponto 7
The seventh volume in the Institute of Classical Archaeology's series on the rural countryside (chora) of Metaponto is a study of the Greek sanctuary at Pantanello. The site is the first Greek rural sanctuary in southern Italy that has been fully excavated and exhaustively documented.

Of particular interest are the analyses of the well-preserved botanical and faunal material, which present the fulles...
The Chora of Metaponto 6
The sixth volume in the Institute of Classical Archaeology’s series on the rural countryside (chora) of Metaponto is a study of the Greek settlement at Sant’Angelo Vecchio. Located on a slope overlooking the Basento River, the site illustrates the extraordinary variety of settlements and uses of the territory from prehistory through the current day.

Active in the Hellenistic, Late Republican, and Early Imperial periods, these kilns illuminate important and lesser-kno...
The Chora of Metaponto 5
This volume in the Institute of Classical Archaeology’s series on rural settlements in the countryside (chora) of Metaponto is a study of the fourth-century BC farmhouse known as Fattoria Fabrizio, located in the heart of the surveyed chora in the Venella valley (at Ponte Fabrizio). This simple structure richly illustrates the life of fourth-century BC Metapontine farmers of modest means. Thorough interpretations of the farmhouse structure in its wider historical and socioeconomic contexts are accompanied by comprehensive analyses of the archaeological finds. Among them is detailed evidence for the family cult, a rare archaeological contribution to the study of Greek religion in Magna Grec...
