Until the 1980s, the Roman frontier in modern Jordan was among the least studied of the empire's far-flung border regions. From 1980 until 1989, the Limes Arabicus Project investigated the frontier east of the Dead Sea. Excavation focused on the late Roman legionary fortress of el-Lejjun as well as soundings of four smaller but contemporaneous forts. The project's regional survey recorded over five hundred other archaeological sites in the area, dating from the Paleolithic to the Late Islamic periods. This report presents detailed results from the excavated forts, a broad range of material cultural evidence from animal bones to bedouin burials, and provides a synthesis of the history of this frontier, which witnessed the first confrontation between the Byzantine Empire and the forces of Islam.

"This collection of essays explores the issues, methods, and approaches that students in landscape architecture have developed during that period to cope with the expanding subject of gardens and their history. The volume will serve as a bench mark in the field, with its range of approaches and wealth of illustrative material. Each contributor focuses upon a specific piece of his or her research, and uses this as a basis to discuss the wider implications of the study of gardens within such contexts as botanical, horticultural, agrarian, literary, technological, social, culture, political, and art history" -- Provided by publisher

Anno del Signore 530. Dopo aver chiuso la Scuola di Atene, l'imperatore Giustiniano invia l'esercito a fermare i Sasanidi. Costretto a raccogliere rinforzi, egli ordina alle truppe limitanee d'oriente di passare il controllo del confine, il Limes Arabicus, ai Ghassanidi, arabi alleati. È questo lo scenario di una storia d'amore adolescente, che scorre sull'intreccio di due linee temporali: alcuni giorni di tensione sull'Eufrate, e mesi di ricordi d'un viaggio allucinante nel deserto. Flaviano, timido e colto scriba sedicenne arruolato di forza, s'innamora di Amina, vispa fanciulla araba di rango. Anche lei, appena tredici anni, è presa da passione per l'esile biondino ma gioca la preziosa. La corte si protrae lungo strade romane già vetuste, mentre il miraggio dei sogni si confonde con la realtà di continue esperienze, tra sovrani viziosi e ufficiali corrotti, megere orripilanti e monaci tronfi, artisti vanesi e cortigiane di lusso, tribuni iracondi e vedove scaltre, amazzoni maschie e mercanti ambiziosi, in un crogiolo ora gaio ora perverso. Infine, l'amore sboccerà. Ma nel contempo si porrà un dilemma.

Roman Arabia written by Glen Warren Bowersock and has been published by Harvard University Press this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 1983 with History categories.
The Roman province of Arabia occupied a crucial corner of the Mediterranean world, encompassing most of what is now Jordan, southern Syria, northwest Saudi Arabia, and the Negev. Mr. Bowersock's book is the first authoritative history of the region from the fourth century B.C. to the age of Constantine. The book opens with the arrival of the Nahataean Arabs in their magnificent capital at Petra and describes the growth of their hellenized culture based on trade in perfume and spices. It traces the transformation of the region from an Arab kingdom under Roman influence into an imperial province, one that played an increasingly important role in the Roman strategy for control of the Near East. While the primary emphasis is on the relations of the Arabs of the region with the Romans, their interactions with neighboring states, Jewish, Egyptian, and Syrian, are also stressed. The narrative concludes with the breakup of the Roman province at the start of the Byzantine age.
