Aristocrats and Statehood in Western Iberia, 300-600 C.E.
Aristocrats and Statehood in Western Iberia, 300-600 C.E. combines archaeological and literary sources to reconstruct the history of late antique Iberian aristocracies, facilitating the study of a social class that has proved elusive when approached through the lens of a single type of evidence.
Cattle and People
This volume originates in a conference session that took place at the 2018 International Council of Archaeozoology conference in Ankara, Turkey, entitled "Humans and Cattle: Interdisciplinary Perspectives to an Ancient Relationship." The aim of the session was to bring together zooarchaeologists and their colleagues from various other research fields working on human cattle interactions over time. The contributions in this volume reflect well the breadth of work being undertaken on the ancient relationship between humans and cattle across the continents of Europe, Africa and Asia, and from the late Pleistocene to postmedieval period. Almost all involve the study of archaeological cattle remains and use different zooarchaeological methods, but the combination of these approaches with that of ethnography, isotopes and genetics is also featured.

Urban Transformations in the Late Antique West: Materials, Agents, and Models
This volume is the fruit of a highly productive international research gathering academic and professional (field- and museum) colleagues to discuss new results and approaches, recent finds and alternative theoretical assessments of the period of transition and transformation of classical towns in Late Antiquity. Experts from an array of modern countries attended and presented to help compare and contrast critically archaeologies of diverse regions and to debate the qualities of the archaeology and the current modes of study. While a number of papers inevitably focused on evidence available for both Spain and Portugal, we were delighted to have a spread of contributions that extended the picture to other territories in the Late Roman West and Mediterranean. The emphasis was very much on the images presented by archaeology (rescue and research works, recent and past), but textual data were also brought into play by various contributors.
Beyond Stonehenge
Celebrating Colin Burgess 65th birthday and more than 45 years studying the Bronze Age, thirty-six contributors, friends, colleagues, former students and members of the Bronze Age Studies Group have come together to provide their latest thoughts on the Bronze Age in Europe. Topics range from the rock art of Northumberland to the nuraghe of Sardinia, from mining in Wales to cross-Channel trade links and from the Cave of Covsea to that at Heathery Burn. Artefact studies include, re-assessments of Scottish Ceramics, Swords from the European Lowlands and from Scotland, hair rings in France, Gold from Iberia, a woodworkers toolkit from Ireland and the first analysis of the most recent bronze and gold hoard discovered in northern England. Wider topics are also considered including the dating of the Bronze Age in Britain in light of the latest European discoveries.
Conimbriga
“Conimbriga: a vida de uma cidade da Lusitânia” oferece uma visão completa da arqueologia do principal sítio arqueológico português, desde as suas origens na Pré-história recente até à sua desertificação nos alvores da Idade Média. A ocupação da cidade romana e do seu território, que beneficia de 130 anos de investigação arqueológica é um dos aspetos centrais da obra, indispensável para compreender um elemento essencial da história da província romana da Lusitânia.
Conimbriga Diripitur
Conimbrica, in pace decepta, diripitur domus destruuntur cum aliqua parte murorum habitatorisque captis atque dispersis et regio desolatur et civitas. Conimbriga, surpreendida em paz, é saqueada, as casas e uma parte das muralhas arrasadas, os habitantes presos e deportados, a cidade e a região desoladas. Crónica de Hidácio de Chaves Este volume apresenta o essencial dos trabalhos das duas últimas décadas em Conimbriga, desenvolvidos de acordo com metodologias cuidadas de observação estratigráfica, designadamente dos níveis superiores de abandono e lixeira. Um período negligenciado de vida da cidade (séc. VI-X) é assim apresentado a uma nova luz.
Santuarios, oppida y ciudades
En este volumen se presentan los resultados científicos del IV Simposio de Arqueología de Mérida que, organizado por el Instituto de Arqueología de Mérida y el Consorcio de la Ciudad Monumental, pretende descifrar las claves que promovieron el nacimiento de la "urbs" y su expansión por el Mediterráneo occidental, analizando tanto sus precedentes como los mecanismos que permitirán el desarrollo urbano más generalizado a partir de la romanización.
Torres, atalayas y casas fortificadas
El volumen recoge un conjunto de estudios sobre las Torres Ibéricas, una de las manifestaciones arquitectónicas más interesantes de esta cultura, que tiene en tierras de Jaén, donde empezaron a estudiarse, una de sus manifestaciones más relevantes. El presente volumen, fruto de un coloquio organizado por la Casa de Velázquez y la Universidad Complutense de Madrid abarca ejemplos de toda la geografía peninsular, planteando el problema de forma general, huyendo de explicaciones parciales lo que da mayor interés a la obra.
