Book excerpt: AVANT-PROPOS Au moment de conclure, pour moi-même, l’aventure de ces colloques, ce n’est pas sans quelque émotion que je regarde la série des actes qu’ils ont suscitée elle concrétise, de façon durable, le travail accompli et son apport, aussi bien méthodologique que scientifique. Dans ce domaine souvent quelque peu aride ou ingrat de la céramologie, liée à l’archéologie de terrain et en formant comme le langage explicite pour qui sait le déchiffrer, chacune de ces rencontres internationales-depuis la réunion initiale et fondatrice de Valbonne en 1978 – a été importante et révélatrice d’une évolution rapide et féconde de ces enquêtes. Elles ouvrent la voie, bien souvent, à de nouvellesrecherches toujours mieux contrôlées et faisant appel de plus en plus à l’archéométrie. L’imposant volume des Actes de Venise – ville symbole s’il en est par sa place au coeur de cette région méditerranéenne d’abord privilégiée – constitue désormais dans cette série une pièce maîtresse à bien des titres. Par son ampleur et la multiplicité de ses acteurs (qui surent tous se plier à des règles strictes) comme par la richesse des interventions présentées: si les «nouvelles découvertes» forment toujours une grande partie des apports, de nouveaux thèmes se précisent. Outre les recherches consacrées à «Venise et son territoire» (significativement d’ailleurs ouvertes aussi à l’analyse des importations orientales perçues dans cette zone), les travaux sur l’évolution des techniques, lescontraintes commerciales, les contextes sociaux, structurent des parts fondamentales de ce congrès. Il s’y ajoute aussi des ouvertures intéressantes et parfois surprenantes sur la place des céramiques dans l’architecture. Ou plus audacieusement encore, des enquêtes sur l’utilisation conjointe des sources écrites et archéologiques dans le monde byzantin, sur le décor intérieur des églises de Chypre, sur les dernières découvertes effectuées récemment à Mertola dans un contexte riverain spécifique. Comme toujours donc, mais ici avec une étendue exceptionnelle, ce congrès surprend d’abord et s’impose par l’abondance de la documentation ainsi présentée avec autant de soin que de générosité: une «mise à disposition» qui force à l’admiration comme à la gratitude envers les auteurs et les organisateurs de ce congrès, et d’abord à son maître d’oeuvre, Sauro Gelichi, qui a accepté ainsi avec son équipe, une très lourde charge. Il s’y ajoute l’affirmation d’un élargissement décisif de l’espace étudié. Centré à l’origine, par prudence comme par nécessité, sur la partie occidentale de la Méditerranée, celui-ci s’ouvre à présent – et de façon décisive – sur l’ensemble des régions méditerranéennes, et bien au-delà, sur leurs zones d’influences ou d’inspiration. Apports et échanges de plus en plus complexes, où la part des régions orientales, proches (ou surtout peut-être) plus lointaines, ne cesse et ne cessera sans doute pas de s’affirmer. Une nouvelle période s’instaure donc dans l’évolution de ces rencontres dont il faut souhaiter la continuité sous des formes de plus en plus exigeantes et critiques, dans un phénomène de mort et de transfiguration tel que celui rappelé ici par Juan Zozaya, l’un des premiers fondateurs de ces congrès.

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of African Archaeology written by Peter Mitchell and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-07-04 with total page 1077 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Africa has the longest and arguably the most diverse archaeological record of any of the continents. It is where the human lineage first evolved and from where Homo sapiens spread across the rest of the world. Later, it witnessed novel experiments in food-production and unique trajectories to urbanism and the organisation of large communities that were not always structured along strictly hierarchical lines. Millennia of engagement with societies in other parts of the world confirm Africa's active participation in the construction of the modern world, while the richness of its history, ethnography, and linguistics provide unusually powerful opportunities for constructing interdisciplinary narratives of Africa's past. This Handbook provides a comprehensive and up-to-date synthesis of African archaeology, covering the entirety of the continent's past from the beginnings of human evolution to the archaeological legacy of European colonialism. As well as covering almost all periods and regions of the continent, it includes a mixture of key methodological and theoretical issues and debates, and situates the subject's contemporary practice within the discipline's history and the infrastructural challenges now facing its practitioners. Bringing together essays on all these themes from over seventy contributors, many of them living and working in Africa, it offers a highly accessible, contemporary account of the subject for use by scholars and students of not only archaeology, but also history, anthropology, and other disciplines.

Download or read book Byzantine Butrint written by Richard Hodges and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2020-02-28 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maskwork is a new way of looking at the art of masks and mask-making: a unique combination of ethnography, design and practical advice. Jenny Foreman's book for teachers and practitioners of drama, art, design and technology grew out of a research bursary from the UK's National Society for Education in Art and Design. They received her report with great enthusiasm as "one of the very best projects . . . likely to make a valuable and useful contribution" to both specific and cross-discipline school and college courses as well as to adult performing groups. The first part explains the anthropology, nature, use and meaning of masks around the world, from prehistory to modern times. Richly illustrated with colour and black-and-white photographs, this section introduces the ethical implications of free use of masks which have ethnographical connections - an important aspect completely neglected elsewhere. The second part comprises eight theme workshops, including theory, background and instructions for mask-making, supplemented by photographs of assembly and use by groups of people from all age-ranges. Materials are inexpensive and easy to acquire, while line drawings aid step-by-step construction. A bibliography and reference section helps readers go on to even greater understanding and achievements.

Book excerpt: The first English-language survey of medieval and modern Sardinia, this volume offers access to long-awaited European scholarship on a critical missing link in the Mediterranean. Based on new archaeological fieldwork and current research from a variety of academic perspectives— architecture, colonialism, ecclesiastic history, cartography, demography, law, musicology, politics, trade, and urban planning—the authors provide the foundation to incorporate Sardinia into a broader European history. Among other contributions, archaeology adds critical insight into the relationship between Christian, Muslim, and Jewish inhabitants of Sardinia, through examinations of urban and rural settlement patterns. This volume aims to stimulate further analysis of the critical role Sardinia has played as one of the largest and most strategically located islands in the Mediterranean. Contributors are Laura Biccone, Nathalie Bouloux, Henri Bresc, Marco Cadinu, Roberto Coroneo, Laura Galoppini, Henrike Haug, Michelle Hobart, Rossana Martorelli, Giampaolo Mele, Marco Milanese, Giovanni Murgia, Gian Giacomo Ortu, Daniela Rovina, Olivetta Schena, Cecilia Tasca, Raimondo Turtas, and Corrado Zedda.
Download or read book Studies in the Archaeology of the Medieval Mediterranean written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2010-09-24 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The medieval Mediterranean world has inspired a rich variety of archaeological studies aimed at trying to piece together its past. This volume presents seven case studies that reveal the complexities of and possible solutions for exploring various areas of the Mediterranean basin. Individually, they offer models of interdisciplinary study that move beyond the disciplinary boundaries of archaeology to integrate evidence from other fields ranging from history to town planning. As a whole, they provide the only collection of studies of their kind for the medieval Mediterraean. They thus provide readers with a view of a field that is vibrant, nuanced, and utilizes a methodological approach that is capable of greatly increasing our knowledge of the medieval Mediterranean world.
