L’area archeologica di Antinoupolis (la città fondata dall’imperatore Adriano nel 130 d.C.) è una delle più vaste e interessanti che l’Egitto ci abbia conservato. Nel corso delle ricerche condotte dal 1935 fino ai nostri giorni, l’attività dell’Istituto Papirologico «G.Vitelli» si è concentrata non soltanto sul recupero di materiali scritti (papiri, pergamene, iscrizioni), ma anche sull’impegno di ricostruire ‘archeologicamente’ la città antica. In questo volume si raccolgono contributi che spaziano da studi sulle mura urbane, sul tempio di Ramesse II, sull’edilizia in terra cruda, fino ai rilevamenti geofisici, all’identificazione di discariche domestiche e industriali, alla Via Nova Hadriana nella sua connessione ad est della città; vi si trovano note preliminari, progetti, ma anche studi definitivi, sul teatro, sull’area del martyrium di San Colluto, sul monastero di Deir el-Hawa a nord della città, l’analisi e il catalogo dei materiali da costruzione scolpiti – capitelli, nicchie – provenienti dalle due grandi basiliche portate alla luce in questi ultimi anni in una zona mai indagata prima. Il volume si conclude con la pubblicazione dello scavo ad Antinoe di John de Monins Johnson (1913-1914), illustrato con le fotografie dell’epoca e la descrizione degli oggetti depositati al British Museum.

Artefact evidence has the unique power to illuminate many aspects of life that are rarely explored in written sources, yet this potential has been underexploited in research on Roman and Late Antique Egypt. This book presents the first in-depth study that uses everyday artefacts as its principal source of evidence to transform our understanding of the society and culture of Egypt during these periods. It represents a fundamental reference work for scholars, with much new and essential information on a wide range of artefacts, many of which are found not only in Egypt but also in the wider Roman and late antique world. By taking a social archaeology approach, it sets out a new interpretation of daily life and aspects of social relations in Roman and Late Antique Egypt, contributing substantial insights into everyday practices and their social meanings in the past. Artefacts from University College London's Petrie Museum of Egyptian Archaeology are the principal source of evidence; most of these objects have not been the subject of any previous research. The book integrates the close study of artefact features with other sources of evidence, including papyri and visual material. Part one explores the social functions of dress objects, while part two explores the domestic realm and everyday experience. An important theme is the life course, and how both dress-related artefacts and ordinary functional objects construct age and gender-related status and facilitate appropriate social relations and activities. There is also a particular focus on wider social experience in the domestic context, as well as broader consideration of economic and social changes across the period.

Ancora un volume, Antinoupolis III, che ha per oggetto un’area archeologica estremamente importante nell’Egitto greco-romano: la città fondata sulla riva sinistra del Nilo nel 130 d.C. da Adriano in onore di Antinoos. Nelle oltre 700 pagine dei due tomi che costituiscono questo volume si propongono, nel primo, studi dedicati a materiali archeologici quali ceramiche sigillate africane, anfore per vino di produzione locale (LRA 7), mortai litici, frammenti sporadici di pietre ornamentali, una coppa in vetro retro dipinta, tessuti della tipologia cosiddetta ‘copta’, analisi di antropologia forense sui resti ossei di una tal Teodosia, la cui cappella funebre era stata scoperta ed illustrata negli scavi condotti sul sito dell’Università di Firenze nella metà degli anni Trenta dello scorso secolo. Nel secondo tomo si presentano edizioni di nuovi papiri, pergamene, ostraca, che riportano testi costituiti da documenti della vita quotidiana o della cultura letteraria classica e cristiana. Le lingue interessate sono il greco, il copto e l’arabo. Novità di rilievo sono rappresentate da iscrizioni, per lo più funerarie, ancora in queste tre lingue. La documentazione è testimonianza della vita che, soprattutto in età tardo-antica, continuava in quel che restava di una grande metropoli romana in una delle province più importanti dell’impero, l’Egitto.

The colonnaded axes define the visitor's experience of many of the great cities of the Roman East. How did this extraordinarily bold tool of urban planning evolve? The street, instead of remaining a mundane passage, a convenient means of passing from one place to another, was in the course of little more than a century transformed in the Eastern provinces into a monumental landscape which could in one sweeping vision encompass the entire city. The colonnaded axes became the touchstone by which cities competed for status in the Eastern Empire. Though adopted as a sign of cities' prosperity under the Pax Romana, they were not particularly 'Roman' in their origin. Rather, they reflected the inventiveness, fertility of ideas and the dynamic role of civic patronage in the Eastern provinces in the first two centuries under Rome. This study will concentrate on the convergence of ideas behind these great avenues, examining over fifty sites in an attempt to work out the sequence in which ideas developed across a variety of regions-from North Africa around to Asia Minor. It will look at the phenomenon in the context of the consolidation of Roman rule.

This book contains 15 papers which were presented by specialists from Europe and Egypt at two conferences held at Ain Shams University, Egypt, in 2014 and 2015. Eight of the articles deal with the history of Late Antique Egypt in its manifold aspects, from monasticism and Coptic manuscripts, to the organization of the Arab conquest. The other seven contributions provide new writings from that historical period published here for the first time, or give new readings of texts earlier known as inscriptions, papyri and ostraca, and offer a close-up look at the historical setting outlined in the first part of this book.

A comprehensive archaeological study of the ceramic finds from a house in Amheida The House of Serenos: Part I: The Pottery (Amheida V) is a comprehensive catalog and analysis of the ceramic finds from the late antique house of a local notable and adjacent streets in Amheida. It is the fifth book in the Amheida series. Amheida is located in the western part of the Dakhla oasis, 3.5 km south of the medieval town of El-Qasr. Known in Hellenistic and Roman times as Trimithis, Amheida became a polis by 304 CE and was a major administrative center of the western part of the oasis for the whole of the fourth century. The home’s owner was one Serenos, a member of the municipal elite and a Trimithis city councillor, as we know from documents found in the house. His house is particularly well preserved with respect to floor plan, relationship to the contemporary urban topography, and decoration, including domestic display spaces plastered and painted with subjects drawn from Greek mythology and scenes depicting the family that owned the house. The archaeology from the site also reveals the ways in which the urban space changed over time, as Serenos’s house was built over and expanded into some previously public spaces. The house was probably abandoned around or soon after 370 CE. The pottery analyzed here both helps to refine the relationship of the archaeological layers belonging to the élite house and those below it, and to shed light on the domestic and economic life of the household and region, from cooking and dining to the management of a complex agricultural economy in which ceramics were the most common form of container for basic commodities. The book will be of interest to specialists interested in ceramology, Roman Egypt, and the material culture, social history, and economy of late antiquity.
