The Greeks in Iberia and their Mediterranean Context
This volume explores the effects of Greek presence in the Iberian Peninsula, and how this Iberian Greek experience evolved in resonance with its neighbouring region, the Mediterranean West. Contributions cover the Phocaean settlement at Emporion and its relationship with the indigenous hinterland, the government of the Greek communities, Greek settlement and trade at Málaga, the Greek settlement of Santa Pola, Greek trade in Southern France and Eastern Spain, the implications of imported Attic pottery in the fifth and fourth centuries BC and the conception of Iberia in the eyes of the Greeks. The Iberian Peninsula invites discussion of key notions of ethnic identity, the use of code-switchi...
El santuari ibèric de la cova de les Encantades del Montcabrer (Cabrera de Mar, Barcelona)
En aquest treball s'estudien les dades referents al santuari ibèric de la Cova de les Encantades del Montcabrer, que presenta un gran volum de material arqueològic. Cronològicament cal situar-lo entre els segles IV aC i II dC, com a lloc on es practicaven sobretot rituals d'ofrena i de comensalitat. Fins alguna resta permet afirmar que el lloc encara fou visitat esporàdicament amb finalitats cúltiques en la tardoantiguitat. L'anàlisi inclou l'estudi del material preibèric, datable majoritàriament en l’edat del bronze, que a priori no tindria a veure amb cap cerimonial religiós.
Palaeohispanic Languages and Epigraphies
In addition to Phoenician, Greek, and Latin, at least four writing systems were used between the fifth century BCE and the first century CE to write the indigenous languages of the Iberian peninsula (the so-called Palaeohispanic languages): Tartessian, Iberian, Celtiberian, and Lusitanian. In total over three thousand inscriptions are preserved in what is certainly the largest corpus of epigraphic expression in the western Mediterranean world, with the exception of the Italian peninsula. The aim of this volume is to present the most recent cutting-edge scholarship on these epigraphies and on the languages that they transmit. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach which draws on the expertise...
The Socio-Economics of Roman Storage
This is the first archaeological study to approach the central problem of storage in the Roman world holistically, across contexts and datasets, of interest to students and scholars of Roman archaeology and history and to anthropologists keen to link the scales of farmer and state.
Colonial Encounters in Ancient Iberia
During the first millennium BCE, complex encounters of Phoenician and Greek colonists with natives of the Iberian Peninsula transformed the region and influenced the entire history of the Mediterranean. One of the first books on these encounters to appear in English, this volume brings together a multinational group of contributors to explore ancient Iberia’s colonies and indigenous societies, as well as the comparative study of colonialism. These scholars—from a range of disciplines including classics, history, anthropology, and archaeology—address such topics as trade and consumption, changing urban landscapes, cultural transformations, and the ways in which these issues played out in the Greek and Phoenician imaginations. Situating ancient Iberia within Mediterranean colonial history and establishing a theoretical framework for approaching encounters between colonists and natives, these studies exemplify the new intellectual vistas opened by the engagement of colonial studies with Iberian history.
Negotiating Identity in the Ancient Mediterranean
Explores the creation of identities through cross-cultural interactions in multiethnic commercial settlements in the Archaic and Classical Mediterranean.
Ibères, Grecs et Puniques en Extrême-Occident
Ce livre s'attache à faire connaître des objets souvent méconnus : les sculptures en argile d'époque préromaine d'Espagne et du Languedoc. Il permet en particulier de répondre à plusieurs questions. Quels types de terres cuites étaient employés par les Grecs, les Phéniciens et les Puniques de l'espace Ibérique ? Quels usages funéraire et cultuel les Ibères ont-ils faits de ces objets, produits localement ou importés ? Où, quand et comment ont été réalisés ces différents matériels ? Quels témoignages nous apportent-ils sur la nature des relations ibéro-grecques, ibéro-puniques et gréco-puniques ? Agrémenté d'un catalogue illustré des objets et d'un répertoire des sites sur CD-ROM, cet ouvrage permet d'aborder de façon novatrice la question des échanges culturels, stylistiques et iconographiques dans l'Extrême-Occident préromain, sous l'éclairage d'un matériel rassemblé ici pour la première fois.
A Companion to Greeks Across the Ancient World
An innovative, up-to-date treatment of ancient Greek mobility and migration from 1000 BCE to 30 BCE A Companion to Greeks Across the Ancient World explores the mobility and migration of Greeks who left their homelands in the ten centuries between the Early Iron Age and the Hellenistic period. While most academic literature centers on the Greeks of the Aegean basin area, this unique volume provides a systematic examination of the history of the other half of the ancient Greek world. Contributions from leading scholars and historians discuss where migrants settled, their new communities, and their connections and interactions with both Aegean Greeks and non-Greeks. Divided into three parts, th...
