Dieci anni fa si celebrava il Quarantennale della Rivista con un numero speciale, un’occasione di riflessione su quanto si era fatto e su come la disciplina si era sviluppata, il tutto visto attraverso la storia di un periodico che ne aveva accompagnato il percorso fin dai primi passi. Il volume affrontava criticamente alcuni tematismi che, in un approccio essenzialmente di tipo storico-culturale, avevano attratto l’interesse dei ricercatori nel nostro Paese e, nel contempo, tentava possibili collegamenti con gli sviluppi dell’archeologia italiana ed europea, cogliendone criticità e punti di forza. Un volume che dunque era un bilancio sul passato, ma anche un possibile ponte verso il futuro. Dopo un decennio, in occasione dei Cinquanta anni della Rivista (gli anniversari restano numeri se non si coglie l’opportunità, che offrono, di un avanzamento critico), la Rivista pubblica un monografico dedicato al rapporto tra l’archeologia medievale e le “scienze dure”, dunque lo fa inserendosi in uno spazio che, forse più di altri, ha segnato in forme innovative la base epistemologica delle nostre ricerche. Ma non si tratta di un’eccezione, perché la Rivista, negli ultimi dieci anni, ha spesso promosso e pubblicato numeri monografici che hanno variamente intercettato e sviluppato temi di attualità: da quelli molto settoriali ma che affrontavano le potenzialità di nuove fonti (ad esempio il numero sulle anfore altomedievali); ad altri più vicini al mainstream storico ma letto attraverso una nuova lente archeologica (il numero sulla congiuntura del Trecento); ad altri, ancora, che tentavano un ripensamento del rapporto tra le archeologie post-antiche e il passato nelle loro più diverse declinazioni, inserendosi peraltro in un filone, oggi forse un po’ troppo alla moda, come quello dell’“archeologia pubblica” (pensiamo al numero su archeologia medievale ed identità). In sostanza, crediamo che la Rivista, oltre ad accogliere quanto di meglio le veniva offerto dalla ricerca nazionale, abbia saputo individuare e sviluppare percorsi autonomi e per certi versi originali, di cogliere quanto di innovativo maturava nell’ambito delle archeologie internazionali e cercare di tradurlo in proposte che guardassero ad un’archeologia del futuro svincolata dalle pastoie in cui è ancora confinata buona parte della nostra tradizione nazionale. Archeologia Medievale, in tutti questi anni, ha mantenuto il suo titolo “tipicamente accademico” ma anche il sottotitolo (Cultura materiale. Insediamenti. Territorio) che, fin dagli inizi, marcava un chiaro spazio autonomo ed originale di ricerca in ambito archeologico. La temperie culturale in cui era nata, la prima metà degli anni ’70, spiega molto di quel titolo e di quegli orientamenti, ma se la rigidità di certe posizioni ideologiche si è nel tempo mitigata e l’archeologia sembra giustamente andare oltre i confini cronologici nei quali è ancora accademicamente inserita, quel sottotitolo, nell’indicare un metodo e uno specifico spazio d’azione, resta ancora pienamente d’attualità […]

Il volume è un percorso esplorativo nella Palermo ebraica che inizia nel tardoantico, prosegue nel periodo islamico e giunge fino all’espulsione del 1492-1493. Un’indagine storica e topografica effettuata attraverso una rilettura delle fonti, l’utilizzazione di sparse e frammentarie informazioni, l’analisi critica di studi parziali e talvolta fuorvianti, per avviare un tentativo di ricomposizione orientato a fornire un’immagine il più possibile organica, ma anche sfaccettata nella sua complessa fisionomia. Si tratta di un lavoro attento di contestualizzazione dei siti istituzionali e dei luoghi-simbolo dell’ebraismo nella Palermo medievale dove, sulla scena della storia, traspaiono il protagonismo dei maggiorenti, le dinamiche dei conflitti interni ed esterni, la vocazione mercantile, la specificità linguistica, lo spessore culturale di medici e rabbini, la circolazione di libri, il lavoro meticoloso dei traduttori e la trasmissione dei saperi. Un viaggio nel vissuto della minoranza che forse ha più segnato la storia della Sicilia “isola-mondo”, rafforzandone l’impronta transculturale, la vocazione mediterranea, cosmopolita e poliglotta.

This volume, the first in a new series dedicated to the archaeological and historical landscapes of central Mediterranean Italy, aims to offer a fresh and dynamic new approach to our understanding of central-southern maritime Tuscany during the Roman period. Drawing on research that was initially presented at the first International Mediterranean Tuscan Conference (MediTo) held in Paganico (Grosseto, Italy) in June 2018, and supported by invited papers from other experts in the field, this collection of essays offers the most up-to-date research into Roman and Late Antique landscapes within Tuscany and its broader Mediterranean context, as well as the political, economic, and social networks that developed in this area during the Classical Period. Ultimately, what emerges from this in-depth study of river valleys, urban centres, and coastal settlements is an understanding of a dynamic Roman territory of cities and villages, villas and sanctuaries, minor sites, and manufacturing districts in which the local population fought to establish and maintain connections with the wider Mediterranean.

The island of Sicily was a highly contested area throughout much of its history. Among the first to exert strong influence on its political, cultural, infrastructural, and demographic developments were the two major decentralized civilizations of the first millennium BCE: the Phoenicians and the Greeks. While trade and cultural exchange preceded their permanent presence, it was the colonizing movement that brought territorial competition and political power struggles on the island to a new level. The history of six centuries of colonization is replete with accounts of conflict and warfare that include cross-cultural confrontations, as well as interstate hostilities, domestic conflicts, and government violence. This book is not concerned with realities from the battlefield or questions of military strategy and tactics, but rather offers a broad collection of archaeological case studies and historical essays that analyze how political competition, strategic considerations, and violent encounters substantially affected rural and urban environments, the island’s heterogeneous communities, and their social practices. These contributions, originating from a workshop in 2018, combine expertise from the fields of archaeology, ancient history, and philology. The focus on a specific time period and the limited geographic area of Greek Sicily allows for the thorough investigation and discussion of various forms of organized societal violence and their consequences on the developments in society and landscape.

This study presents a new regional history of the middle Tiber valley as a lens through which to view the emergence and transformation of the city of Rome from 1000 BC to AD 1000. Setting the ancient city within the context of its immediate territory, the authors reveal the diverse and enduring links between the metropolis and its hinterland.

This open access book demonstrates the application of simulation modelling and network analysis techniques in the field of Roman studies. It summarizes and discusses the results of a 5-year research project carried out by the editors that aimed to apply spatial dynamical modelling to reconstruct and understand the socio-economic development of the Dutch part of the Roman frontier (limes) zone, in particular the agrarian economy and the related development of settlement patterns and transport networks in the area. The project papers are accompanied by invited chapters presenting case studies and reflections from other parts of the Roman Empire focusing on the themes of subsistence economy, demography, transport and mobility, and socio-economic networks in the Roman period. The book shows the added value of state-of-the-art computer modelling techniques and bridges computational and conventional approaches. Topics that will be of particular interest to archaeologists are the question of (forced) surplus production, the demographic and economic effects of the Roman occupation on the local population, and the structuring of transport networks and settlement patterns. For modellers, issues of sensitivity analysis and validation of modelling results are specifically addressed. This book will appeal to students and researchers working in the computational humanities and social sciences, in particular, archaeology and ancient history.
