Este trabajo documenta cinco aldeas poco conocidas de la comarca de Sierra Mágina (Jaén): Aulabar, Belmez, El Frontil, Mata Bejid y Cabritas. Lejos de ser simples cortijadas, estos núcleos rurales poseen un notable valor patrimonial e histórico, ligado a la explotación agrícola, la arquitectura tradicional y la memoria colectiva. A través de cartografía, fuentes históricas, testimonios orales y trabajo de campo, se analizan su evolución urbana, tipologías constructivas y manifestaciones etnológicas, así como la relación con castillos medievales y procesos de repoblación tras la conquista cristiana. El estudio pone de relieve la fragilidad de este patrimonio material e inmaterial, gran parte no protegido, pero esencial para comprender la identidad rural de Sierra Mágina y el arraigo de sus pobladores.

This paper examines the ways in which the reliefs that decorated the most monumental rooms of the royal palaces of Assyria, as well as palace architecture more generally, provided cues about activity within these palaces. The framework for this exploration is provided by the work of Amos Rapoport and the ways he conceptualised the ways meaning could be encoded in, and decoded from, the environment through non-verbal communication. The in betweenness of reliefs, being neither temporary nor structural, highlights some of the issues with Rapoport's analyses. The remainder of the article traces the different ways reliefs provided cues about activity within the royal palaces of Assyria. However, although such cues can sometimes be traced by modern scholars, it is unlikely that this was their primary intended purpose.

ель исследования заключается в соотнесении результатов исторических ис- следований и данных картографических источников с материалами археологических разведок на территории основанного в начале XV века монастыря Св. Троицы, также известного как Патоллен, владения которого образовали в ходе Реформации поместье Гросс-Вальдек. При обращении к монастырскому периоду истории этого места ставилась задача охарактеризовать его как центр хозяйственного комплекса и местный религиозный центр. В истории поместья особое внимание уделено свиде- тельствам о земляных и строительных работах. Картография XVI—XX веков поз- воляет изучить изменения в пространственной репрезентации местности, а также изменения топонимики и ландшафта. Предпринята попытка соотнести выявленные в ходе археологических работ культурные напластования, в том числе фундаменты и слой разрушения, с этими изменениями. /
Secularisation in East Prussia in the context of material culture: preliminary results of archaeological surveys in 2024 in the area of the village of Osokino, Bagrationovsky municipal district.
The aim of the study was to correlate the results of historical research and data from cartographic sources with archaeological survey materials on the territory of the Patollen Monastery of the Holy Trinity, founded in the early 15 th century and transformed into the Gross-Waldeck estate during the Reformation. When referring to the monastic period of the history of this place, the task was to characterize it as the centre of an economic complex and a local religious centre. In the history of the estate, I paid special attention to evi- dences of earthworks and construction work. Cartography of the 16th —20 th centuries allows us to study changes in the spatial representation of the area, as well as changes in topo- nyms and landscape. Finally, I attempted to correlate the layers discovered during ar- chaeological surveys, including foundations and a destruction layer, with these changes.

Martínez Sopena, Paris 2004 (Publication de la Sorbonne, Histoire ancienne et medievale, 68), pp. 535-550 © dell'autore -Distribuito in formato digitale da "Reti Medievali"] 1. La signoria in Toscana meridionale Il territorio qui considerato, il settore sud-occidentale dell'attuale Toscana, corrisponde alle diocesi medievali di Populonia -Massa Marittima, Roselle -Grosseto e Sovana, con alcuni ampliamenti ai territori di Volterra, Siena e Chiusi. È un'area dai confini sfumati, che, pur essendo sempre stata considerata parte della Toscana, nei secoli centrali del medioevo non ne condivise i tratti salienti: il rigoglio demografico, la ricchezza economica, la forza di centri e ceti urbani. Il suo principale tratto comune, al di là delle pur rilevanti differenze, fu la debolezza del tessuto urbano e la forza di aristocrazie ed enti ecclesiastici rurali e delle loro signorie. La regione ha dunque una sua unità storica, dovuta alla condivisione di alcune caratteristiche di fondo della società, dell'economia e delle forme del potere 1 . Geograficamente essa può essere divisa in tre fasce: quella costiera e pianeggiante caratterizzata nel medioevo da consistenti fenomeni di impaludamento e di divagazione dei corsi d'acqua; la fascia collinare alle sue spalle, fittamente insediata; e infine il massiccio dell'Amiata caratterizzato da quote superiori ai 500 m, ma i cui picchi superano ampiamente i 1.000 m. La Toscana meridionale fu una delle aree italiane più interessate dal fenomeno signorile tra 1050 e 1350: le locali aristocrazie militari esercitarono i nfatti in modo sostanzialmente incontrastato i poteri politici, militari, giurisdizionali e fiscali sotto gli ultimi marchesi di Tuscia, nel quadro delle istituzioni di governo sveve e infine sotto l'alto governo dei comuni di Siena e Orvieto, che si limitarono a una sottomissione politica senza mettere in discussione la signoria rurale. Anche la più ampia e duratura aggregazione politica maremmana, la contea aldobrandesca, si fondò sulla signoria: era infatti l'insieme di una quarantina di dominî diretti (signorie dei conti) e di una quarantina di baronie (signorie in mano ad aristocratici legati al conte da un rapporto di fedeltà personale). Nel pieno XIII secolo il tessuto signorile giunse a tale compiutezza che ogni curia era confinata da altri territori signorili, senza vuoti, se non eccezionalmente. Del resto, per quanto si possono distinguere i due aspetti, la signoria maremmana non strutturò solo il potere politico, ma fu anche lo strumento per appropriarsi del surplus produttivo dei contadini e più i n generale dei non aristocratici. Ciò avvenne attraverso vari canali: innanzitutto imponendo canoni prestazioni d'opera e obblighi militari ai contadini che lavoravano la terra, ma anche tassando le comunità che inquadravano la popolazione dei castelli (compresi contadini autonomi e dipendenti altrui), operando prelievi sui traffici e infine, aspetto fondamentale per la Maremma, controllando alcune risorse naturali strategiche che garantivano entrate enormi grazie all'integrazione nei processi produttivi dell'area settentrionale. Ma come si giunse a questa situazione? E qual era il contesto insediativo della zona? Anche qui, come nel resto della Toscana, i primi esempi di esercizio di poteri giurisdizionali privati di ambito territoriale sono tardi rispetto all'Italia Padana e al resto dell'Europa (post 1040). Ne furono protagoniste famiglie di ufficiali pubblici che esercitavano in forme degradate e privatizzate i poteri comitali ovunque potessero, indipendentemente dai distretti carolingi. Supporto fondamentale all'affermazione di quei poteri fu la disponibilità di una solida base fondiaria, di clientele armate e di castelli intorno ai quali coordinare gli altri due elementi. All'inizio del XII secolo la signoria sulla popolazione e sul territorio era ormai scontata, sia per le maggiori famiglie, sia per quelle di orizzonti più locali e per i grandi enti ecclesiastici, anche se non si deve pensare che la capillare rete

Anatolia is a geographical area characterized by various architectural styles from different civilizations and offers a rich historical and cultural heritage in terms of Islamic architecture. This study aims to examine the spatial features of the Harput, Silvan, and Kızıltepe Great Mosques built during the Artuqid period and determine the effects of regional differences on the architectural features. The study discusses the historical and architectural characteristics of mosques and adopts a method of analysis based on Kevin Lynch's urban images of paths, edges, districts, nodes, and landmarks. With this method, the plan diagrams, spatial organizations, and facades of the mosques were typologically compared, and their relationships with regional variations were examined. The results reveal that the mihrab dome and the harim plan scheme are significant in the key design decisions in the spatial configuration of the three mosques. However, different architectural approaches, such as the porticoes and interior walls, were developed depending on regional requirements and functions. The study emphasizes the importance of these mosques in Islamic history and provides a framework for examining the relationship between the monumental structures and urban images by using the proposed methodology.

Lo studio analizza l’architettura dell’oratorio di San Martino, individuandone i vari interventi costruttivi sulla base dell’analisi stratigrafica dell’elevato. Alla prima fase, entro il secolo X, si assegnano i muri a nord e ad est che definiscono l’originaria dimensione della navata. Quell’edificio proponeva una pianta uguale all’attuale, ma con la facciata arretrata di circa m 1,8. Presumibilmente in seguito al disastroso terremoto del 1117 e ai danni arrecati si procedette al rifacimento della facciata in posizione avanzata rispetto alla precedente; quindi nel 1478, su voto della famiglia Banda ad impetrare protezione contro la peste che imperversava, venne edificata sul finire del secolo o nei primi anni del successivo, addossata al lato sud della chiesa, la cappella gotica dedicata ai santi Rocco e Sebastiano. La chiesa porta quindi i segni di un rialzamento che potrebbe essere avvenuto in occasione della fabbrica della cappella Banda o comunque, di poco piu tardi, in relazio...

This work applies generational mapping to the Ancestral Pueblo, using 15-year intervals. Distinct phases, found in other cultures, will be tested as to their applicability. They include: 1) "Invisible" Beginnings; 2) Establishment; 3) Novel Consolidation and Opening Up; 4) Crisis & Creativity; 5) Empire and Inclusion; and 6) Renewal or Rigidification? These findings will help the reader grasp the temporal flow of the Indigenous Southwest, which might otherwise be piecemeal and lack clarity. In addition to a useful mapping of time, the author brings an archetypal awareness to the patterns used in imagery and shows how it resonates with historical phases. We invite you to take a temporal journey into Pueblo times, to follow the evolution of their culture and cosmology, and to gain a sense of our solidarity with Indigenous peoples.

La Casa de la Exedra es una de las edificaciones más singulares del Castro de Elviña (A Coruña). Excavada por primera vez en 1947, su complejidad arquitectónica y la sucesión de paramentos, fases constructivas y contextos arqueológicos ha supuesto todo un quebradero de cabeza para la investigación. En el presente trabajo, se propone una nueva aproximación a este conjunto desde un análisis arqueológico y arquitectónico de su secuencia ocupacional. Partiendo de los datos obtenidos en una reciente campaña de excavación, que proporciona una secuencia estratigráfica fiable y varias dataciones radiocarbónicas, se realiza un estudio arquitectónico de las estructuras visibles a través de las relaciones de sus paramentos. Los datos obtenidos permiten revisar anteriores propuestas y establecer una nueva aproximación al yacimiento, relacionando las dinámicas constructivas de este sector con el contexto general de la ocupación del castro y de la región.

The knowledge of Hercle/ Herakles/Hercules in pre-Roman Italy may have begun as early as the third quarter of the seventh century**. This is not however documented with any written evidence until the early fifth century. In the intervening period, toward the second half of the sixth century, Hercle, as he was known in Etruria became one of the most popular of Italic gods. This can be explained by the confluence of a number of factors that would, over time, contribute to his Italic embrace and divinization. Perhaps chief among these were the stories and images that began to appear through Greek imports in both literary and visual form that were soon sought after and replicated by the culturally cultivated, internationally sophisticated Italic elites who whole-heartedly embraced a Near Eastern princely life style. Of the Twelve Labors (the Dodekathlon) of Herakles, none appear together as a narrative cycle as it is known in Greek art of the fifth century. Instead, partial sporadic elements of the Twelve can be seen from as early as the seventh and early sixth century, perhaps under the influence of their earlier appearance on South Italian and Sicilian temple metopes. On closer examination, of the earliest of the adopted Labors, the Lion is the most common. By the second half of the sixth century, depictions of the number of Labors had increased, appearing in coastal centers as well as the interior. The building of monumental public buildings and sanctuaries coincided with the creation of urban centers. At the same time, waves of Greek immigrants from Asia Minor (as for example, the Phocaeans, who arrived following the battle of the Sardinian Sea and the Persian expansion with the fall of Sardis in 546) and the Peloponnesus brought with them new ideas and technologies. This dynamic was coupled with a local agility in adapting certain of the iconographic images of Hercle for local consumption, which were then conveniently coated with notions of self-justification and promotion, the perpetuation of the gens, ancestor worship, and the desire for a larger-than-life victorious and divine religious model with which they could identify. Given this, the illustration of the Labors of Hercle easily became a paradigm for the Italic princeps and its youth. In particular, the hero-become-god offered a model hunter-warrior, triumphing over struggles in life (birth, initiation of youth, marriage, and death) and afterlife, with its promise of immortality. Rather than addressing the multiple facets of the imagery's formation, appearance, and impact throughout Italy, the following comments are confined to its display at four principal centers of Etruria and Rome from the later sixth into the fifth century that were instrumental to its later diffusion throughout the rest of Italy: i.e., Cerveteri (with its port of Pyrgi), Veii, Vulci and Rome.

RESUMEN Si bien la Arqueología ha mostrado gran interés por los signos, símbolos, el sentido de una obra del pasado o la interpretación de la cultura material, el desarrollo de metodologías para comprender la significación de esta producción es aún escaso. A través de una revisión detallada de la teoría semiótica posestructuralista, aquella que admite explícitamente su encuentro con la teoría de la interpretación, en este documento se desarrolla un modelo semiótico hermenéutico de la cultura material a través del trabajo interdisciplinario con la Arquitectura, el Diseño y el Urbanismo, obteniendo como resultado una sólida aproximación a la significación e interpretación de la producción material de la cultura aplicable a los objetos del pasado que coadyuve a resolver las inquietudes de enfoques teóricos tradicionales de la Arqueología.

This study delves into the concept of architectural spolia and highlights its potential to generate hybrid structures combining fragments of the old and the new. Spolia traditionally refers to reusing deconstructed building parts in an architectural composition-a reincarnation or a relocation of a building element-belonging to different eras. As a result, these fragments of buildings are granted 'afterlives' and a 'hybrid' structure is created. The research aims to expand the conventional definition and provide an overlooked perspective on spolia, rethinking it as a catalyst of unexpected combinations and unique spatial situations and characterizing the practice of incorporating spolia in architectural design as experimental. By engaging with recent literature, the study situates spolia within the contemporary discourse in relation to adaptive reuse and hybrid architecture. The study highlights the instances of reuse through spolia and the transformative processes of restructuring, rematerializing, and rethinking. The coexisting nature of old and new builds a bond across time and space, presenting the transformation of material, constructing distinctive expressions inherent in each example. By displaying the various ways spolia is used in contemporary architecture, these examples fill the gap between old and new and create a visual narrative that reflects the layers of history in the built environment.

While recent movements in social and economic history encourage us to turn our gaze toward the provinces, the majority of the recent accounts of Ottoman art and architecture remain resolutely focused on the patronage of the imperial court in Istanbul. This thesis aims to expand this view, standing as the first analytical study devoted to the art and architecture of provincial notables in the Ottoman Empire. More specifically, this dissertation documents and analyzes the flourishing of cultural and architectural production on the empire’s western frontier under Tepedelenli Ali Pasha, who governed what is now Greece and Albania for more than thirty years (r. 1788-1822) during the so-called “Age of Revolutions.” Ali Pasha could be considered part of a new class of provincial power-holders that began to emerge throughout the empire in the eighteenth century. By tracing the governor’s capacity to commission Western-style portrait paintings or to construct urban architectural complexes in...

Desde 2006 hemos acometido un proyecto de restitución virtual basado en los datos arqueológicos obtenidos (datos arquitectónicos, dimensiones y características de los materiales constructivos) cuyos principales resultados presentamos aquí, donde proponemos una modelización 3D de las diferentes fases del edificio desde su origen hasta comienzos del siglo V.

The purpose of this paper is to collect the quotations of Theocrit in Spanish writers since 2001 and, from the registered mentions, to analyze his characteristics in what concerns the person of the Greek poet, his relevance in the classical literary tradition, the sense of his mentions in relation to the argument of the paragraph where he is quoted and, finally, to find the exact place of the Theocritus’ poems to which belong the texts attributed to him and their fidelity with respect to the original.

The castillo de Arenas is one of the most interesting archaeological sites in Sierra Mágina due to its stra-tegic position and the magnificence of its emerging remains. The historiography has listed it on many occasions, focusing its analysis on documentary sources and confirming its defensive role in the pas-sage of the Puerta de Arenas. However, this case study has not been the subject of archaeological research. In this article we present the results of our analysis of its structures under the application of archaeology of architecture. Thanks to it, it has been possible to identify different historical phases and correlate them materially with those attributed by the aforementioned historiography.

In this paper we examine the structure of politically complex societies in the north-east of the Iberian Peninsula during the first millennium BC, using the Lower Ebro region as an example. Drawing on data provided in recent years by archaeological research, we discuss the combination of territorially hierarchical and heterarchical phenomena. At the same time we reassess the chronological framework in which this sociopolitical process took place. To do so, we rely more on information about the evolution of the protohistoric societies in the region under study than on information about material culture. We present a model that may serve as a starting point for future research.

Gli studi precedenti hanno individuato quattro fasi, che qui si cercherà di localizzare: la prima fase con l’abside poligonale e un tratto della navatella sinistra, variamente datata tra il V e il VI secolo; la seconda fase con le absidiole attribuite ad Adriano I; la terza fase con le navate, datata da Claussen intorno a l050 e la quarta con il portico e il campanile. In questa sede si presenta per la prima volta un’accurata lettura stratigrafica di tutte le murature visibili al fine di poter localizzare con precisione queste quattro fasi della chiesa, con lo scopo di individuare con più precisione le indicazioni cronologiche rilevabili nelle varie fasi. Si fa anche qualche considerazione sulle dimensioni e proporzioni delle finestre: quelle grandi dell’abside poligonale, collocabili per le dimensioni nel V secolo, e quelle, molto più piccole, delle navate, che però ancora non hanno quella forma alta e stretta che spesso caratterizza le finestre romaniche del XII secolo.

The stylistic canon of the steatopygic Upside-down Double Goddess giving birth has its roots in the Upper Paleolithic of Western Europe. Several instances point on the birth of a daughter. These representations strongly evoke the long lineage of women who gave birth before, and those who will give birth in the future. A focus is on the interpretation of the majestic, naked, corpulent and fertile post-Paleolithic Generatrix painted in red at the Ranaldi Shelter (Southern Italy) in the act of delivering a new life among a herd of stags. I am in debt with Gheorghe Lazarovici for his inputs in reading and discussing the image.

Varias localidades vascas fueron adoptadas para su reconstrucción: Gernika, Amorebieta, Eibar, etc. Sin embargo, en este caso presentamos un análisis comparativo de dos casos menos conocidos, pero igualmente significativos: Legutio (Araba) y Elgeta (Gipuzkoa). Los dos pueblos fueron adoptados, pero desde enfoques diferentes y con perspectivas distintas. La hipótesis que guía este trabajo es que su significación política dispar motivó actuaciones distintas a nivel arquitectónico, urbanístico y territorial: Legutio era la "villa mártir" del ejército franquista, mientras Elgeta representaba a la "resistencia vasca" frente a los sublevados. Un análisis riguroso de los restos materiales del presente-edificios, monumentos, impactos, etc., resulta revelador a la hora de comprender y caracterizar la obra reconstructora del Nuevo Estado franquista, así como su impacto en los paisajes construidos del País Vasco.

The Sorrento Peninsula is characterized by a significant occurrence of examples of vernacular architecture, which exhibit distinctive morphological and constructive features. These have been the subject of numerous studies. However, some buildings have undergone a process of transformation over time, the details of which have yet to be investigated. Architectures that initially held a rural character were enlarged and ennobled, thereby becoming what could be termed as "villas of delights". However, these clearly manifest their origin based on the permanence of some vernacular features. This paper focuses on the analysis of a case study, Villa Murat, which is exemplary in illustrating this process. This thorough interdisciplinary research combines historical investigation, based mainly on archival documents, with a direct examination of the Villa. This has enabled the retracing of the building's evolution and of the events that occurred in it. An integrated survey, which employed photogrammetry and laser scanning, enabled the assessment of the current state of conservation. The ultimate objective of this research is to propose conservative interventions which, in conjunction with the suggested new intended use, could ensure the preservation of the Villa.

Cultural heritage is an authentic and unrepeatable resource. Cultural, economic, political, and ecological facts evaluate its observations, both qualitatively and quantitatively. Therefore, we won't exaggerate if we say that cultural heritage should have the status of a strategic resource. In this way, both cultural revitalization and general sustainable development are based on it. The scope and dynamics of conducting complex activities, which unite the restoration, conservation, renovation, revitalization, sanitation, and presentation of protected cultural heritage, condition the preservation and promotion of categorized and immovable cultural heritage. The creation of cultural-historical heritage of Sremski Karlovci and its gradual and systematic tourist valorization are the basis for deepening our understanding of its potential. This potential is based on the effective politics of heritage management. It can become an experience and provide pointers for sustainable development. Establishing a correlation between the most important attractions and multipliers supports the necessary move from the multidisciplinary approach to tourism development to an interdisciplinary one. This approach should help one shape and achieve the goals of the development of culture and tourism by relying on cross-sector and interdepartmental connections, and continued cooperation.
