(ed.) The Dictionary of Egyptian Deities and Divine Designations (Lexikon der ägyptischen Götter und Götterbezeichnungen: LGG) comprises more than 5.500 pages or 16.500 columns, about 56.500 entries, almost 100.000 cross-references and approximately 200.000 citations. That makes it the largest reference-work of its kind in Egyptology. It includes all expressions which can in one way or another designate deities. For the first time it is possible to view at once the entire material for any particular epithet – no matter whether the texts are from the Old Kingdom or from the GraecoRoman Period (including demotic texts). Das Lexikon der ägyptischen Götter und Götterbezeichnungen (LGG) enthält auf mehr als 5.500 Seiten oder 16.500 Spalten, rund 56.500 Haupteinträge, knapp 100.000 Querverweise und etwa 200.000 Textbelege; es ist damit das größte Nachschlagewerk seiner Art in der Ägyptologie. Verzeichnet sind alle Ausdrücke, die im weitesten Sinne als Bezeichnungen von Gottheiten dienen konnten. Es ist erstmalig möglich, das gesamte Material zu einem beliebigen Epitheton auf einen Blick zu sichten – gleichgültig, ob es sich um Texte des Alten Reiches oder der griechisch-römischen Zeit (einschließlich des Demotischen) handelt.

(eds) • 2014 – British Museum Publications on Egypt and Sudan 1 • XXVIII-1194 p. • 125 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3044-5 The 12th International Conference for Nubian Studies was held at the British Museum, London, from 1st-6th August 2010. The main sessions, and main papers published herein, were devoted to a consideration of the Merowe Dam Archaeological Salvage Project, its aftermath and impact. Over de previous decade this has been the major focus of archaeological activity on the Middle Nile. The dam is now complete and the reservoir is full drawing a line under the fieldwork component of the project. It was felt timely, therefore, in the interim to obtain an overview of what was found during the many years of intensive work and the first main paper speaker in each session sought to do just that. They were followed by reports on sites, categories of objects and more thematic papers arranged broadly by period. These highlight that, while the focus of archaeological activity still remains in the Nile Valley where there is the densest concentration of sites and also where there remains the most concentrated threat to their survival, much work is being undertaken away from the river and in some cases outside its catchment area. The role of the deserts is increasingly being appreciated while the role of the savannah and areas even further south has yet to be given the prominence that it probably deserves. EGYPT IN THE FIRST MILLENNIUM AD Perspectives from New Fieldwork O’CONNELL E.R. (ed.) • 2014 – British Museum Publications on Egypt and Sudan 2 • ca 300 p. • Forthcoming • ISBN 978-90-429-3071-1 This volume contains the proceedings of the twenty-first annual British Museum International Egyptology Colloquium, which was the first in the series dedicated to post-pharaonic Egypt. The volume investigates continuity and change in the archaeological record in the First Millennium AD, focusing on the transitions to and from Late Antiquity (AD 250–800), when Egypt’s population became Christian and, later, Islam was introduced. The fourteen contributors, representing the overlapping disciplines of Egyptology, Archaeology and Art History with specialisations in the pharaonic, Roman and Late Antique periods, present the results of new archaeological research at a range of sites currently under investigation. Seeking to identify trends and compare results, the volume is organised according to four major themes: 1) settlements, 2) cemeteries, 3) settling rock-cut tombs and quarries and 4) temple–church–mosque. Many of the contributions address adaptive reuse of earlier architecture, the recycling of earlier monuments as building material (i.e., spolia), or both. Traditionally neglected by modern scholars in favour of other periods in Egypt’s long history, the study of First Millennium AD archaeology offers increasingly better opportunities to evaluate both Egypt’s distinctiveness and its role within the wider Mediterranean region. FROM OLD CAIRO TO THE NEW WORLD Coptic Studies Presented to Gawdat Gabra on the Occasion of his Sixty-Fifth Birthday YOUSSEF Y.N., MOAWAD S. (eds) • • • • 2013 – Colloquia Antiqua 9 XX-227 p. 75 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2731-5 WWW . PEETERS - LEUVEN . BE This present volume is dedicated to Gawdat Gabra, the former director of the Coptic Museum in Cairo and now Professor of Coptology at the University of Claremont in the USA. Dr Gabra is one of the pioneers of Coptic studies in modern times and the author and editor of many valuable and highly regarded monographs, series and articles. Although the papers in this volume do not have a single theme, all of them share an interest and focus on one topic: Egypt. They cover many fields in Coptology and Egyptology, such as art, Biblical studies, liturgy, Copto-Arabic studies and archaeology. They present the results of recent academic research and archaeological excavations. The seventeen contributors to this volume belong to three continents and work in seven countries all over the world, but all of them appreciate the long-time efforts of Gawdat Gabra for Coptic studies on an academic level as well as his indefatigable labour to make laymen aware of Coptic Egypt. 3 EGYPTOLOGY & COPTOLOGY DAS OPFERRITUAL DES ÄGYPTISCHEN NEUEN REICHES Band I: Texte. Band II: Übersetzung und Kommentar TACKE N. • 2013 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 222 • XIV-396 p. + VIII-362 p. (2 vol.) • 120 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2727-8 This PhD thesis from FU Berlin (in German; with a preface by Jan Assmann and an English summary) provides the first complete edition of “The Offering Ritual of the Egyptian New Kingdom”, formerly known as “Ritual for Amenhotep I”. The ritual’s liturgy covers the daily offering of food to Amun-Re in Karnak and comprises 51 spells for the daily cult and 17 additional spells for certain religious festivals. Part I contains a full synopsis of the liturgical texts in hieroglyphic transcription, based on a new reconstruction of the two separate Papyri Cairo CGC 58030 and Turin CGT 54041, Papyrus Chester Beatty IX, the texts of respective scene sequences in the temples of Karnak, Abydos and Medinet Habu, as well as ca 400 other textual sources from all periods of Egypt’s religious history. Part II consists of a full translation, commentary and critical apparatus of the Egyptian texts, together with an in-depth analysis of the ritual, covering its theological, historical and practical aspects, and placing it into the context of other rituals and religious structures of Ancient Egyptian religion. In that sense, the book does not only fill a long-due desideratum in Egyptology but also provides new insights relevant for audiences in the fields of theology and history of religions. THE WORKMAN’S PROGRESS Studies in the Village of Deir el-Medina and Other Documents from Western Thebes in Honour of Rob Demarée HARING B.J.J., KAPER O.E., VAN WALSEM R. (eds) • 2014 – Egyptologische Uitgaven Egyptological Publications 28 • XIV-332 p. • 59 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3123-7 This book contains twenty-two papers collected in honour of Robert J. Demarée by his friends and colleagues. Because of his expertise in the area of Western Thebes and ostraca of the village of Deir el-Medina in particular, the contributors have sought to address these topics in particular. Central theme of the Festschrift is the community of workmen of Deir el-Medina, which is investigated from many different angles. The papers discuss the documentary texts from the village, either written in graffiti, on papyri or on ostraca, but also aspects of the work in the Valley of the Kings, the workmen’s use of oil, birthing beds, coffins, stelae as well as their religious beliefs and behaviour. The volume thus sheds new light on the workmen’s community, as well as on the area of Western Thebes in more general terms. This volume is a token of gratitude from the Leiden University department of Egyptology for Rob’s much appreciated contribution to its teaching programme, as well as a tribute by colleagues worldwide who have worked with him, also in fieldwork projects in Egypt. INTERPRETATIONS OF SINUHE Inspired by Two Passages (Proceedings of a Workshop held at Leiden University, 27-29 November 2009) HAYS H.M., FEDER F., MORENZ L.D. (eds) • 2014 – Egyptologische Uitgaven Egyptological Publications 27 • VI-243 p. • 45 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3122-0 4 The Tale of Sinuhe is the best-known text from ancient Egypt, and equally the one about which the most has been written. And yet its depths have not been fully fathomed, in respect neither to its cultural and literary value, nor to its grammar and lexicon. The present volume originates in a conference held at Leiden University which took as its starting point two passages from the famous story: one from the beginning of the Tale, and one from the end. The idea was that the text could be opened up through them, from the inside out. The ten essays of this volume discuss the Tale from many different viewpoints, bringing new insights to its grammar, its literary ambition, and its cultural setting. PEETERS PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSELLERS EGYPTOLOGY & COPTOLOGY THE FIRST PYLON OF THE MUT TEMPLE, SOUTH KARNAK: ARCHITECTURE, DECORATION, INSCRIPTIONS The Brooklyn Museum Expedition to the Precinct of Mut at South Karnak FAZZINI R.A., VAN DIJK J. (eds) • • • • 2014 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta ca 160 p. Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-3055-1 The goddess Mut, consort of Amun-Re at Thebes, is one of the goddesses known as the “Eye of Re” that include Isis, Hathor and Bastet among others. Her temple precinct in South Karnak was a major religious site from at least the early New Kingdom through the early Roman Period, yet Mut remains relatively unknown. While badly damaged, the gate in the Mut Temple’s First Pylon bears important religious texts relating to the goddess and her cult as well as remains of Ramesside scenes recarved in the Ptolemaic Period. This study of the gateway and its texts, edited by R.A. Fazzini and J. van Dijk, includes a description of the gateway’s architecture (W.H. Peck), a detailed study of the figural decoration (R.A. Fazzini) and transcriptions, translations and analyses of the inscriptions (J.-C. Goyon, J. van Dijk, H. te Velde). Two appendices deal with the recarved Ramesside texts (J. van Dijk) and aspects of the goddess (J.-C. Goyon). DENDARA.

AN INTRODUCTION TO THE WRITING AND LANGUAGE OF THE MIDDLE KINGDOM Volume I: Grammar, Syntax and Indexes. Volume II: Sign Lists, Exercises and Reading Texts BORGHOUTS J.F. • 2010 – Egyptologische Uitgaven Egyptological Publications 24 • 581 p. + 481 p. (2 vol.) • 120 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2294-5 This is a data-oriented grammatical description of Middle Egyptian, a now extinct Pharaonic language, spoken and written in the hieroglyphic and hieratic scripts, between 2100 and 1700 before our era, the period of the Middle Kingdom. Middle Egyptian was regarded by the Egyptians as a classical stage of their language and it remained in use for a long time after that period. Middle Egyptian texts are extremely varied and comprise stories, historical narratives, letters, scientific treatises, and a large number of religious sources. The first volume is a systematic description of the language, illustrated by a great number of quotations from original texts, and provided with word lists and other indexes. The second volume leads the reader in a gradual way in 33 lessons through the grammatical description provided in the first volume, and moreover contains an extensive list of hieroglyphic signs and their values, exercises and, finally, original texts for reading. COPTIC IN 20 LESSONS Introduction to Sahidic Coptic. With Exercises & Vocabularies LAYTON B. • • • • 2007 VIII-204 p. 27 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-1810-8 Coptic in 20 Lessons is written by the author of the most authoritative reference grammar of the Coptic language, and is based on decades of pedagogical experience. In easy steps and simple explanations, it teaches the patterns and syntax of Sahidic Coptic, along with the most useful vocabulary. Drills, compositions, and translation exercises enable the student to gain fluency. All words that occur more than fifty times in the Sahidic New Testament are introduced lesson by lesson in vocabulary lists, which are arranged by semantic field and accompanied by both Greek equivalents and English glosses. The book concludes with three chapters of the Gospel of Mark, in which all new vocabulary is glossed in footnotes. Coptic in 20 Lessons is the ideal resource for use in the classroom or for teaching oneself Coptic. COPTIC PARADIGMS A Summary of Sahidic Coptic Morphology STERLING G.E. • • • • 2008 XIV-95 p. 12 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-1872-6 6 Facility in reading an ancient language requires several competencies: control of the morphology, a working vocabulary of common words and phrases, and a grasp of syntax. This pedagogical aide addresses the first of these by collecting the basic forms and patterns of Sahidic Coptic and presenting them in a convenient format. It is not a full grammar, but a supplement to a grammar. The work provides beginning students with an overview of the morphology of Sahidic Coptic so that they can see the whole of a part of speech or pattern as they learn discrete parts. It offers those who once learned Coptic but have not been able to maintain it with a concise review. While the work is not exhaustive, it is complete enough that it can serve as a useful reference for those who teach Coptic. The work was developed for a course in Coptic at the University of Notre Dame. It is offered in this venue with the hope that it will help students elsewhere.

(2 vol.) 190 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2447-5 Ce second volume de la publication finale des résultats de la mission archéologique du Louvre à Saqqara concerne les tombes hypogées de Basse Époque. Illustré de près de 1000 photographies en couleur, dessins et plans, il présente l’étude des tombes F7, F17, H, j1, Q et n1 découvertes en 20032007 au Nord de la chaussée d’Ounas. Ces tombes hypogées sont exceptionnelles à plus d’un titre. La plupart étaient inviolées et leur contenu a été retrouvé dans sa disposition originelle. Elles se distinguent par la qualité des objets et leur rare état de conservation. Enfin, une inscription démotique date précisément l’une d’entre elles de l’an II du pharaon Nectanébo II, 1er mois de l’inondation (21 novembre-20 décembre 360 av. J.-C.). L’ouvrage, en deux tomes, comprend la description architecturale et archéologique des différentes tombes ainsi que le catalogue détaillé des objets qui y ont été retrouvés. En fin d’ouvrage, on trouvera une série d’études scientifiques concernant les momies et le matériel d’embaumeur, les inscriptions (démotique, chypro-grec et copte) ainsi que les matériaux et les techniques (recherches sur les pigments, les végétaux, les textiles et les cartonnages). HISTOIRE, GÉOGRAPHIE ET RELIGION DE L’ÉGYPTE ANCIENNE: OPERA SELECTA Textes édités et indexés par Ivan Guermeur YOYOTTE J. • 2013 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 224 • XXVIII-632 p. • 95 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2912-8 Cet ouvrage réunit quarante-sept études du professeur Jean Yoyotte (1927-2009) dont un certain nombre de travaux publiés dans des revues non égyptologiques ainsi que les comptes rendus de ses cours de l’École Pratique des Hautes Études, où il enseigna comme Directeur d’études de 1964 à 1991 et du Collège de France où il fut professeur de 1991 à 1997. Les articles réédités ici sont ceux que Jean Yoyotte avait choisis. Republiés de manière uniforme et indexés, afin d’en rendre l’usage plus commode, ils traitent pour la plupart de questions relatives à la pensée religieuse, à la géographie et à l’histoire de l’Égypte ancienne, qui, quoiqu’il s’intéressa à tous les aspects de la société égyptienne ancienne, constituent néanmoins ses sujets de recherche privilégiés. Cette somme qui témoigne tant de son immense érudition et de ses multiples curiosités qu’elle révèle l’enseignant hors pair qu’il était, s’adresse tout autant aux égyptologues qu’aux spécialistes des cultures du Proche-Orient ancien et du monde hellénistique et romain. FUNCTIONAL ASPECTS OF EGYPTIAN CERAMICS IN THEIR ARCHAEOLOGICAL CONTEXT BADER B., OWNBY M.F. (eds) • 2013 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 217 • XII-421 p. • 90 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2581-6 WWW . PEETERS - LEUVEN . BE This volume presents the papers given at an international conference on “Functional Aspects of Egyptian Ceramics within their Archaeological Context”, which was held from 24th to 25th July, 2009 at the McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge, UK. The aim of this conference was to discuss Egyptian pottery in different archaeological contexts and the employment of ceramics for understanding these deposits. At the same time some archaeological contexts were utilised to gain insights into the function of pottery, in order to integrate both approaches. The papers cover domestic, funerary, festival, and ritual contexts and the ceramic finds within them. Additional topics are the widely neglected reuse of pottery and how ceramic material can be interpreted in its wider socio-economic context. The case studies discuss pottery derived from many sites in Egypt from the Delta in the north to Elephantine in the south, and cover a chronological range from the Old Kingdom to the Coptic period. This broad approach ensures that the focus was on the role of Egyptian pottery within past societies as seen through various types of archaeological contexts. This volume provides archaeological and ceramic insights that are significant beyond Ancient Egypt. 7 EGYPTOLOGY & COPTOLOGY ACTS OF THE TENTH INTERNATIONAL CONGRESS OF DEMOTIC STUDIES Leuven, 26-30 August 2008 DEPAUW M., BROUX Y. (eds) The Acts of the Tenth International Congress of Demotic Studies held in Leuven illustrate the disciplinary diversity of the field. Apart from new editions of documents (receipts, contracts, letters, oracle questions,...) and presentations of new literary texts (including even those referring to raining frogs), this volume also contains contributions such as a new proposal to standardize transliterations, a discussion of the classification of magical texts, or a survey of the history of Demotic in Leuven. The volume will be of interest to egyptologists, papyrologists, and ancient historians. • 2014 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 231 • XIV-390 p. • 84 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3008-7 ASPECTS OF DEMOTIC ORTHOGRAPHY Acts of an International Colloquium held in Trier, 8 November 2010 VLEEMING S.P.

Although we feel confident that, at least in theory, we thoroughly understand these scripts, practical difficulties in reading the cursive variants of hieratic and demotic remain. These are often such that they constantly bring to mind the sometimes abstruse associations by which the ancient scribes arrived at the various orthographies they invented for writing the complex lingual structures. Demotic is a particularly interesting case in point, as it belongs to the multi-layered textual world of the Graeco-Roman period, where hieroglyphs, hieratic and demotic are usually found in complementary use, but also occasionally in competition with each other. In their variety, the studies presented in these Acts bear witness to the rich texture of the script by investigating several parameters by which it may be measured, including the reading of individual signs and grammatical categories such as verbal morphology. Indices of words and signs discussed, as well as a full bibliography of studies in monographs and articles relating to the topic, complete the volume. A BERICHTIGUNGSLISTE OF DEMOTIC DOCUMENTS C.

Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-3125-1 In this detailed study of double names in Egypt, Yanne Broux explores how the age-old tradition of polyonymy flourished under Roman rule. While in the Ptolemaic period double names were mainly bilingual and were thus connected to the concept of ethnicity, they underwent a significant change starting around the middle of the first century AD and culminating in the third. Broux argues that this shift from Ptolemaic Greek-Egyptian to Roman Greek-Greek double names was the outcome of two structures introduced by the Romans: the strict social hierarchy on the one hand, and the municipalization of the metropoleis, which led to the rise of the local elite, on the other. This resulted in a strong emphasis on Greek identity and descent, and double names lent themselves exceptionally well for this purpose. They bring to the fore the importance that the local elite attached to Greek identity and descent, and, perhaps, as a wink to the (forbidden?) tria nomina, provided a means to distinguish their prominent bearers from the rest of the Egyptian population. QASR IBRIM, BETWEEN EGYPT AND AFRICA Studies in Cultural Exchange (NINO Symposium, Leiden, 11-12 December 2009) VAN DER VLIET J., HAGEN J.L. (eds) • 2013 – Egyptologische Uitgaven Egyptological Publications 26 • VI-191 p. • 40 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3030-8 The natural citadel of Qasr Ibrim in Northern Nubia occupied for thousands of years a strategic position between Egypt and the Middle Nile region, the present-day Sudan. This volume contains thirteen papers that focus on Qasr Ibrim as a key witness to cultural interaction between Egypt and the world of the Mediterranean on the one hand, and Africa, the Sudan and beyond on the other. Drawing their inspiration from the rich material found on site, these papers combine text-based and archaeological approaches. Particular attention is paid, for instance, to pottery and textile finds, while texts written in Demotic, Meroitic, Greek, Coptic, Old Nubian and Arabic are presented and discussed. Beyond the mere presentation of material, the volume addresses more general questions concerning cultural liminality, the role of indigenous versus foreign models and centre-periphery relations. Above all, however, it chronicles a fascinating chapter in the history of North-South contacts. INSIDE AND OUT Interactions between Rome and the Peoples on the Arabian and Egyptian Frontiers in Late Antiquity DIJKSTRA J.H.F., FISHER G. (eds) • 2014 – Late Antique History and Religion 8 • ca 450 p. • Forthcoming • ISBN 978-90-429-3124-4 WWW . PEETERS - LEUVEN . BE In recent years, exciting new discoveries of inscriptions and archaeological remains on the Arabian Peninsula have led to a re-evaluation of the peoples on the Arabian frontier, which through their extensive contacts with Rome and Persia are now seen as dynamic participants in the Late Antique world. The present volume contributes to this recent trend by focusing on the contrast between the ‘outside’ sources on the peoples of the frontier – the Roman view – and the ‘inside’ sources, that is, the precious material produced by the Arabs themselves, and by approaching these sources within an anthropological framework of how peripheral peoples face larger powers. For the first time, the situation on the Arabian frontier is also compared with that on the southern Egyptian frontier, where similar sources have been found of peoples such as the Blemmyes and Noubades. Thus, the volume offers a richly-documented examination of the frontier interactions in these two vibrant and criticallyimportant areas of the Late Antique East. The book is of interest to anthropologists, archaeologists, historians, Egyptologists, Arabists, epigraphists and papyrologists and, in general, to all scholars working in the period of Late Antiquity. 9 EGYPTOLOGY & COPTOLOGY KELLIA.

Der hier vorgelegte Band bietet eine Neuedition der für den Heiligen Kolluthos koptisch bekannten literarischen Texte, die bislang nur einzeln und weit verstreut publiziert worden sind. Auf der Grundlage dieses Textcorpus wird das Leben des ägyptischen Heiligen, seine ungewöhnliche Existenz und ärztliche Laufbahn, sein Martyrium und schließlich die als von seinen Gebeinen ausgehend wahrgenommene Wunderkraft näher beleuchtet. Vor dem Hintergrund der für die christliche Märtyrerliteratur typischen Textgattungen – Martyrium, Encomion und Miracula – wird das für den Heiligen Kolluthos kohärente sahidische Textcorpus nicht nur neu ediert und übersetzt, sondern auch im Einzelnen erklärt und kommentiert.

Die merkwürdige „Geheimschrift“, die mehr als die Hälfte dieser Dokumente durchzieht, hat schon immer Kopfzerbrechen bereitet, angefangen bei Pachoms Mitbrüdern und bei Hieronymus, der sie ins Lateinische übersetzt hat, über den Jesuiten Athanasius Kircher (1602-1680), bis hin zu Forschern des zwanzigsten Jahrhunderts wie Emanuele Testa, Ilona Opelt und Hans Quecke. In diesem Buch wird ein Lösungsvorschlag vorgelegt, der in sich konsistent ist und sich in der Durchführung als tragfähig erweist. So tritt neben die Übersetzung der Briefe auch ihre Deutung. Besonders auffallend ist das Buchstabenquadrat, das sich mitten unter den Briefen befindet, dessen Deutung sich aber gleichfalls an die für die Briefe entwickelten Lösungsansätze anschließt. Die Botschaft Pachoms, die in allen Briefen zum Ausdruck kommt, stützt sich auf vier einfache Grundgedanken: 1. Warnung vor irdischer Gesinnung, 2. In der Bedrängnis finden wir Rettung, 3. Gottes Gebot besteht in der Bruderliebe, 4. Diese gilt es zu erfüllen angesichts der Ewigkeit. Mit diesen Gedanken ist Pachom verankert in der Mönchstheologie seiner Zeit. Sein Spezifikum als „Vater der Koinobiten“ tritt aber in dem 3. und 4. Grundgedanken in besonders charakteristischer Weise hervor.

Les tombes de la Vallée des Rois sont en quelque sorte des pyramides inversées que le souverain parcourt et où il séjourne, seul spectateur initié de ces images mystérieuses – grandioses ou terrifiantes – qui jalonnent l’espace souterrain. Les hypogées royaux, conservatoire de la quintessence théologique et astronomique égyptienne, transmettent leur message en une débauche de couleurs qui, plus encore que les hiéroglyphes finement ciselés ou les silhouettes artistement esquissées, donnent accès à l’ineffable. Le pharaon quitte le séjour des vivants pour un lieu où règne en maître le disque rouge du Soleil de la nuit, nimbé d’une lumière d’or qui anime dieux et génies. L’espace de quelques heures, il n’est plus l’astre de la vie terrestre; il plonge dans le monde minéral des morts et ressurgit dans celui, végétal, des vivants. Il est conduit vers l’éternité dans l’intégrité de son corps; il perpétue alors non seulement son nom et sa dynastie, mais aussi la marche du monde. Le pharaon a pénétré le Grand Mystère, celui de la Première Fois, lors duquel l’astre igné et le limon fécondateur fusionnent et engendrent la divinité: dans l’AutreMonde, en un cycle quotidiennement répété, Rê incandescent ranime Osiris léthargique et Osiris redressé exhausse des profondeurs l’autre face de l’Âme double, Rê de feu.

Elle existe depuis le commencement, alors que la terre était dans la nuit et les ténèbres. Elle est un havre quand on vient du sud, une rade quand on vient du nord. Cette phrase, vieille de deux millénaires, pourrait être écrite aujourd’hui, et de fait temps et espace sont suspendus pour quiconque voit surgir Philæ au milieu des eaux miroitantes sous le soleil. Philæ, bout du monde pour les Égyptiens et les Grecs anciens, est le point de rencontre culturel des civilisations méditerranéennes et des Nubiens venus des profondeurs de l’Afrique. Les tableaux qui décorent ses temples reflètent cette position stratégique de l’Île des temps anciens: les dieux de Nubie, de Philæ même, d’Éléphantine côtoient, en s’y indentifiant parfois, ceux des métropoles religieuses de l’Égypte. Le mythe de l’éternel retour d’Osiris et de la crue du Nil donne son harmonieuse cohérence à cette synthèse théologique. Une promenade dans cet écrin lumineux, tout différent des grands sanctuaires à la masse écrasante et austère, fait retrouver l’enchantement qu’exprime un visiteur contemporain des Ptolémées et des Césars: Celui qui a adoré l’Isis de Philæ a un sort heureux, non pas seulement parce qu’il devient riche, mais parce qu’en même temps il obtient une longue vie. Nombreux en effet sont ceux qui ont foulé le sol sacré; ils ont immortalisé leur présence et leur ferveur en hiéroglyphes, en démotique, en grec, en latin, en copte, en arabe – en français aussi, tels les braves de Bonaparte, et même en italien avec les envoyés du pape de Rome. 11 ANCIENT NEAR EASTERN STUDIES ARCHAEOZOOLOGY OF THE NEAR EAST X Proceedings of the Tenth International Symposium on the Archaeozoology of South-Western Asia and Adjacent Areas DE CUPERE B., LINSEELE V., HAMILTON-DYER S.

The meeting took place at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences (Brussels, Belgium) from June 28 to June 30, 2011. The 20 contributions presented here deal with a wide range of topics related to the human-animal interactions and gather the results of research that has been conducted in Anatolia and the Levant, more eastern regions (Armenia and Azerbaijan), northern Africa (Egypt and Sudan) and Oman. Research questions include issues such as the exploitation of animal resources, changing animal use, herding practices, social differences and/or identities, trade, animal burials and sacrifices, and cover periods ranging from the PPNB up to the Early Islamic period.

(ed.) • 2014 – Ancient Near Eastern Studies Supplement 45 • X-306 p. • 90 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2973-9 The arid areas of the Negev and Edom played a prominent role in the socio-economic and cultural development of the Iron Age civilizations of the southern Levant and northwestern Arabia, being at the interface of key trade routes, providing essential resources and developing cultic practices that spread to neighbouring regions. This volume comprises the papers presented at the symposium “Unearthing the Wilderness: Workshop on the History and Archaeology of the Negev and Edom in the Iron Age”, held at the W.F. Albright Institute of Archaeological Research, Jerusalem, on 12 December 2010, and supplemented with studies from other leading scholars. Research questions include the socio-economic and political fluctuations in the arid margins of the southern Levant, southern Judah, and the northern Hejaz in the Iron Age, the exploitation of the copper mines of Timna under New Kingdom Egyptian and local control, the relationships between the southern Levant and the Arabian world as seen from the archaeological and epigraphic record, and the question of the “Edomite” pottery assemblage in late Iron Age Judah. THE LATE THIRD MILLENNIUM BCE IN THE CENTRAL ORONTES, SYRIA Ceramics, Chronology and Cultural Connections KENNEDY M. • 2014 – Ancient Near Eastern Studies Supplement 46 • ca 525 p. • Forthcoming • ISBN 978-90-429-3011-7 12 This volume examines the florescene of urban society during the mid to late Third Millennium BCE in the northern Levant, focusing on the largely unexplored region of the central Orontes Valley, specifically the site of Tell Nebi Mend, ancient Qadesh (on the Orontes). This work seeks to explore the role and significance of ‘small’ regional sites during the Early Bronze Age IV, by presenting a detailed stratigraphic and ceramic analysis of the Tell Nebi Mend sequence from the mid Third Millennium (Early Bronze Age III) through the early Second Millennium BCE (Middle Bronze Age I). One of the principal aims is to construct a detailed ceramic typology for Tell Nebi Mend and the central Orontes during the late Third Millennium BCE. This stratigraphically anchored assemblage was designed as a foil for the more intensively investigated ‘mega-site’ sequences of the region, such as Ebla and Hama. It was also designed to explore and examine the development and evolution of regional ceramic horizons and the growth of inter-site interaction that occurred during the later Early Bronze Age. The ceramic and stratigraphic information presented sheds new and important light on many of the key research issues that surround the Early Bronze Age IV, such as the nature of the Early Bronze Age III-IV transition and the regional response to the ‘collapse’ of the Early Bronze Age urban system ca. 2000 BCE. PEETERS PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSELLERS ANCIENT NEAR EASTERN STUDIES ACROSS THE BORDER: LATE BRONZE-IRON AGE RELATIONS BETWEEN SYRIA AND ANATOLIA YENER K.A. (ed.) • 2013 – Ancient Near Eastern Studies Supplement 42 • VIII-542 p. • 98 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2715-5 One of the most intriguing issues facing archaeologists working in the second millennium BC is the collapse of Late Bronze Age palace economies and the rise of smaller principalities called the Iron Age kingdoms. Some of these kingdoms retain vestiges of the previous Hittite Empire while others represent an ethnic diversity of newly emerging centers of power. The decentralized kingdoms stretch from Cilicia to the Tigris River and are situated on both sides of the modern border of Syria and Turkey. Theories about this political transition have varied from environmental causes, internal dynastic squabbles in Hattusha, to marauding bands of mythical “Sea Peoples”. Modern political realities across the border between Turkey and Syria have often minimized the flow of scholarly information about this important collapse. This book compares archaeological data from new as well as established excavations dating to the Late Bronze and Iron Ages. Special attention is given to significant new understandings of chronology that will contextualize the structural collapses at the end of the Late Bronze Age and will illuminate the rise of new Iron Age kingdoms and their imperial ambitions.

Une première partie comporte quinze textes relatifs à des recherches menées dans le cadre de la Mission archéologique syro-française de Ras Shamra - Ougarit. Les résultats portent principalement sur l’âge du Bronze et, pour l’essentiel, sur la période du Bronze récent. Ils concernent, d’une part, des travaux de terrain (études de plusieurs bâtiments et d’aménagements hydrauliques, analyses des techniques de construction) et, d’autre part, des études du matériel archéologique et épigraphique, avec la présentation de pièces inédites, provenant des fouilles en cours ainsi que de l’exploration ancienne du tell de Ras Shamra et du site de Minet el-Beida. Dans une seconde partie, quatre articles portent sur Ras Ibn Hani. Le premier présente les résultats d’un sondage menée à Ibn Hani en 1987, qui a permis de mettre en évidence une occupation du Bronze ancien dans le secteur. Puis, trois rapports préliminaires relatifs à la campagne de fouille, menée en 2011 par la Direction générale des Antiquités et des Musées de Syrie sur le site de Ras Ibn Hani, apportent de nouvelles données sur l’occupation de ce secteur, du Bronze récent à l’époque byzantine.

Outline of a Comparative Grammar. Its purpose is to show the birth and development of Semitic linguistics in broad lines, but also to pay a closer attention to languages which have played a minor role in the Comparative Grammar, while they are actively studied at present, viz. Middle Aramaic, Mandaic, Neo-Aramaic. Suggestions are also made for a renewed research on some conjugation forms in Old Aramaic, Classical Hebrew, Ugaritic, Epigraphic Southern Arabian, also Beja, whose links with Semitic are stronger than often assumed. Attention is paid to the existence of a “continued” aspect beside the “performed” one and the “not (yet) performed”, also to the relations between Old Egyptian and Semitic, especially in the question of the correspondence of the consonants in earlier periods. Finally, the traces of an ergative grammatical system are underscored, not only in Semitic, but even more in Libyco-Berber, the Afro-Asiatic phylum which is nearest to Semitic, and closer attention is paid to research in the field of Proto-Semitic roots, apparently monosyllabic. MARDUK-RĒMANNI Local Networks and Imperial Politics in Achaemenid Babylonia WAERZEGGERS C. • • • • 2014 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta ca 650 p. Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-3040-7 Marduk-remanni was a Babylonian man who lived in the provincial town of Sippar during the first decades of Persian rule in Mesopotamia (second half of the sixth century BC). His archive of c. 187 cuneiform texts was found in 1881 during excavations carried out on behalf of the British Museum, but since then it has received little attention. On first sight, the historical relevance of Mardukremanni’s records seems minimal. They relate to his private assets, business enterprises, and legal concerns – matters that barely seem to transcend the personal and local spheres. But upon closer scrutiny, it becomes clear that Marduk-remanni was at the centre of a far-flung personal network and that his life, despite his having lived far from the political centre, reflects many of the developments and changes taking place at the highest imperial level. He was a child when Cyrus the Great of Persia conquered Babylonia, and although this regime change caused little upheaval outside the political arena at first, by the time of Marduk-remanni’s death several decades later, the world of his childhood had changed. His life had taken a completely different course than that of his father and grandfather. He had traveled near and far, visiting the Persian court at Susa on several occasions. No longer were the horizons of his world confined to the Babylonian heartland, as they had been for his father and grandfather. Marduk-remanni was born in provincial Babylonia, but he died as a citizen of a world empire. This book traces the social, economic and political dynamics that transformed his life. NISILI.

To this end, the book gathers, collates and analyses the disparate evidence for networks of interaction in the western Mediterranean and Atlantic regions of Europe and north Africa in the period from the 9th to the 7th century BC. The focus form the less well-known areas of the expansion, the Iberian Peninsula and north-west Africa, which are studied within the broader context of Mediterranean interactions in the Late Bronze and Early Iron Age periods from the Near East to the Atlantic. The discussion is detailed and takes into account some of the latest archaeological discoveries, along with previously unpublished material.

This volume is the second monograph of the final publication of the excavations. It provides an account of the pottery and of the hundreds of inscribed pottery sherds that were recovered during the excavations. It forms a companion volume to the first monograph, which reports on the history of the site and other finds. 15 IRANIAN STUDIES EXCAVATIONS AT TEPE GURAN The Neolithic Period MORTENSEN P. • • • • 2014 – Acta Iranica 55 VIII-145 p. 85 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-3047-6 In 1963 excavations at Tepe Guran in Luristan revealed a series of occupations, representing a small Neolithic village with an economy based on dry-farming, herding, and hunting, and strongly dependant on the nearby rivers and hills. A unique sequence of a-ceramic and early ceramic levels covering a period of more than a thousand years (c. 6700-5500 BC) were uncovered. Peder Mortensen’s book is the final report on the excavations, supplemented by sections on the prehistoric environment and on hunting and early animal domestication at Tepe Guran by Kent V. Flannery and Pernille Bangsgaard. The results are presented within a framework of reflections relating to the author’s and to other scholars’ recent research on the development of Neolithic settlement and subsistence patterns in the Central Zagros region. YANIK TEPE, NORTHWESTERN IRAN The Early Trans-Caucasian Period. Stratigraphy and Architecture SUMMERS G.D. • 2013 – Ancient Near Eastern Studies Supplement 41 • XXXII-217 p. • 89 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2713-1 Excavations at Yanik Tepe were conducted by Charles A. Burney over three seasons from 1960 to 1962. The site is located to the northeast of Lake Urmia, some 20 km from Tabriz. This volume comprises the final report on the long sequences of stratigraphy and architecture belonging to the Early Trans-Caucasian (ETC) period which lasted from about 3000 BCE into the early second millennium. It is argued that the ETC people who founded the village came from a long tradition of settled farming. While the first phase, ETC I, is characterised by round houses and the second, ETC II, by agglutinative rectilinear building there is strong continuity in the use of space and, particularly, of built-in kitchen ranges. The descriptive text is enhanced by numerous photographs and line drawings. A concluding chapter makes pertinent comment on chronology and the place of Yanik Tepe within a wider setting. A foreword by Charles Burney provides colourful background to his pioneering excavations.

L’intitulé du colloque, Le sort des Gâthâs, faisait écho à la traduction que Jacques Duchesne-Guillemin avait donnée des Gâthâs dans son Zoroastre (1948), important jalon des études de l’Iran ancien. Les principes directeurs de la rencontre étaient de traiter une question la plus précise possible et encore débattue, pour laquelle des études philologiques techniques puissent apporter une solution positive et de le faire avec un nombre restreint de participants choisis sur la seule base de leurs apports récents sur le sujet: le résultat de l’entreprise fut à la hauteur de l’hommage qu’il convenait de rendre à l’une des plus grandes figures de l’iranologie. Le thème du colloque, la réutilisation et le rôle des passages vieil-avestiques dans la littérature mazdéenne ultérieure, avestique récente, mais aussi moyen-iranienne, a été abordé de plusieurs façons.

(eds) For millennia, walled citadels have served both as residences for rulers and military forces and as sacred centers embodying the power of the elite. The outcome of a symposium organized by Koç University’s Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations, the essays in this volume are by leading scholars on the area that is now Turkey, from the first millennium BC through the fourteenth century AD. They examine the phenomenon of citadels in a comparative perspective in Anatolia and neighboring regions. Archaeology, art history, and history are brought to bear on the phenomenon of the citadel in its urban context. • 2013 – Ancient Near Eastern Studies Supplement 40 • X-346 p. • 86 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2712-4 EGYPT AND SYRIA IN THE FATIMID, AYYUBID AND MAMLUK ERAS VII Proceedings of the 16th, 17th and 18th International Colloquium Organized at Ghent University in May 2007, 2008 and 2009 VERMEULEN U., D’HULSTER K., VAN STEENBERGEN J.

(eds) • 2014 – Ancient Near Eastern Studies Supplement 47 • ca 275 p. • Forthcoming • ISBN 978-90-429-3062-9 Istanbul stands at a unique conjunction of an inland sea with a long maritime inlet, and a winding, turbulent maritime strait that links two seas and separates two continents. These topographical features have greatly facilitated maritime trade, for which the city has had an enormous harbor capacity. Istanbul’s relationship with fresh water is also idiosyncratic: its dearth meant that fresh water for consumption had to be channeled, stored, and distributed with the help of long-distance aqueducts, open-air reservoirs and cisterns. The natural environment combined with the norms of local societies created a culture of water that has constituted an important part of Istanbul’s identity. Various aspects of it are explored in this volume, the outcome of a symposium organized by Koç University’s Research Center for Anatolian Civilizations. The eleven essays by leading scholars present research findings from the archaeological excavations at Yenikapi, examine the distribution and consumption of water in Byzantine times as well as the social impact of water in the Ottoman era, and offer reflections on the aesthetics of water. DÉTRÔNER LE SULTAN Deux conjurations à l’époque des réformes ottomanes: Kuleli (1859) et Meslek (1867) ONARAN B. • • • • 2013 – Collection Turcica 18 XXXII-477 p. 75 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2544-1 Ce livre a pour objet l’étude de deux conjurations (Kuleli en 1859 et Meslek en 1867), fomentées dans la capitale de l’Empire ottoman, Istanbul, et révélées au moment où les conjurés s’apprêtaient à passer à l’action en vue de détrôner le sultan – premières tentatives de détrônement depuis la suppression en 1826 des janissaires, qui étaient auparavant les principaux «défaiseurs» de sultans. Cet ouvrage analyse ce nouveau type de révoltes et de révoltés qui ont envisagé de «défaire» le sultan ottoman. Il s’attache à réécrire l’histoire de ces deux conjurations, à examiner leur structure, leur fonctionnement et leurs stratégies, tout en éclairant les motivations, les revendications politiques et les profils sociaux des conjurés. Il s’interroge sur les spécificités de ces deux tentatives dans le contexte des transformations sociales et politiques des années 1850 et 1860, et contribue ainsi à une meilleure compréhension des changements de l’espace politique ottoman à cette époque. Quelle était la place des «sujets» et du sultan dans la structure du pouvoir politique durant les premières décennies des Tanzimat, alors que les mentalités et les «techniques» de gouvernement de l’administration centrale étaient en train d’être reformulées et que l’opinion publique devenait un acteur politique de plus en plus influent?

Les premières s’inscrivent dans le registre de l’histoire politique et idéologique des dernières décennies de l’époque ottomane. Elles touchent à la politisation et à la question des provinces de l’Empire. Elles touchent aussi au vocabulaire politique et aux nouvelles temporalités introduites par la révolution jeune-turque dans la réflexion de certains intellectuels. Les secondes sont des contributions à l’histoire intellectuelle. Une place importante est faite dans cette partie à la presse et à l’imprimé, tandis qu’une dernière contribution reprend la question des intellectuels voyageurs. La troisième partie est consacrée à l’histoire sociale. Y sont abordées des thèmes divers tels que: la construction et la fluidité des identifications, les fêtes, l’alimentation, et les évolutions sociales à l’échelle urbaine, comme à l’échelle individuelle. Enfin, la quatrième et dernière partie rassemble d’un côté des études sur la Turquie kémaliste et, de l’autre, des essais sur le passage «des Ottomans aux Turcs» (pour reprendre le titre d’un volume d’articles de François Georgeon), et sur la construction des savoirs dans ce domaine. 19 MIDDLE EASTERN STUDIES ISLAM AND GLOBALISATION: HISTORICAL AND CONTEMPORARY PERSPECTIVES CILARDO A.

(eds) • 2013 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 215 • XIV-562 p. • 89 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2558-8 This volume collects papers from the 24th Congress of the Union Européenne des Arabisants et Islamisants (UEAI) in 2008 at the University of Leipzig. Original research and new approaches illustrate its theme of Sources and Approaches across Disciplines in Near Eastern Studies. The studies span Muslim culture, civilizations, and intellectual thought in the medieval and modern periods. The contributions demonstrate the benefits of following methodological and interdisciplinary approaches that draw upon literary criticism, sociology and anthropology in the field of Qur’anic studies, religion, philosophy and mysticism; state and society; literature and rhetoric; philology and linguistics; mathematics and astronomy; art and epigraphy; and Islamic sciences and economic history. The volume also highlights the commonalities and overlaps that exist between these different branches and fosters cooperative study across a wide cultural, historical, and sociological milieu. Rather than following an isolated approach to their areas of study, academics in different fields of Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies benefited from one another’s methodologies, and collectively built a wide body of knowledge.

In this homily, which is part of his previously published MäÒÌafä Bǝrhan “Book of Light”, he addresses in detail the ritual of Christian baptism and the requirement of religious instruction for the baptized faithful as well as the would-be baptized catechumens. The ritual for adults is discussed and defined with thoroughness and clarity not found in any other source. Significantly, the text suggests that there was at that time a large number of non-Christians who converted to Orthodox Christianity, either of their own free will or due to pressure from Christian rulers, including the Emperor. As always, Zär’a Ya‛ǝqob uses his authority to enforce religious instruction as he details it. He prescribes harsh corporal punishment, usually flogging, to individuals who do not attend school without acceptable excuses—which are illness and going on military expeditions—as well as to clergy who neglect their duty to teach and to district rulers who do not force people to come to school.

BE This volume contains the papers of the second meeting of the international scholarly network “The Hermeneutic of Judaism, Christianity and Islam,” held in Aix-en-Provence (September 25-27, 2008). Drawing on Gérard Genette’s theory of the five different types of “transtextuality” (Palimpsestes, Paris 1982) – intertextuality, paratextuality, metatextuality, hypertextuality, and architextuality – , the volume discusses the practices of metatextuality as diverse as commentaries, hypomnemata, pesharim, targumim, Talmud, allegoresis, glosses, scholia, catenae, questions-and-responses (erotapocriseis), prophetic extracts, hypotheses, homilies, integumenta and involucra, Keys to Dreams, translations, and transliterations in the ancient Mediterranean and Near Eastern cultures. Presented with an introduction designed to expand and re-contextualize this issue, the eighteen communications discuss common strategies of metatextuality in Greek and Jewish culture as well as its various manifestations in the Septuagint and other Jewish texts, in the literature of the Ancient Near East and Egypt, in the GrecoRoman world, and in the late antique and medieval literature. 21 EASTERN CHRISTIAN STUDIES JACQUES RHÉTORÉ La versification en Soureth (Araméen contemporain) POIZAT B. • 2013 – Corpus Scriptorum Christianorum Orientalium 647, Subsidia 131 • XIV-156 p. • 74 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2656-1 La première partie de ce livre consiste en l’édition d’un manuscrit du missionnaire dominicain, le P.

His works began to be translated into Syriac in the fifth century, after which they significantly impacted the shape of Syriac exegetical, homiletical, dogmatic, and spiritual writing. These volumes make available for the first time an edition of the Syriac text and English translation of St. John Chrysostom’s Exegetical Homilies on the Gospel of John, typically known in Syriac as Chrysostom’s Commentary on John, Homilies (Mêmrê) 1-43. The text is edited on the basis of the extant main manuscripts, from the 6th-8th centuries, in addition to excerpts preserved in various collections. Introductions to the two volumes explore the Syriac manuscript tradition, the origin and technique of the translation, its value as a witness to the Greek text, the nature of its many biblical citations, and the impact of the version on the Syriac tradition. The volumes include an orthographical index and an index of biblical citations. DIONIGI AREOPAGITA. NOMI DIVINI, TEOLOGIA MISTICA, EPISTOLE.

This catalogue provides detailed descriptions of the 48 Syriac manuscripts (many of them composite) and the more than 180 fragments that are preserved in the Monastery today. Ranging in date from the 5th to the 18th century and with a majority of them being earlier than the 10th century, the manuscripts present us with major authors and works of the Syriac literary tradition. They include biblical texts (among them the earliest dated Gospel manuscript in any language), original Syriac compositions, and translations from Greek and (occasionally) Coptic. Several works were previously unattested. Connections with manuscripts from Deir al-Surian that are preserved in European collections (primarily the British Library) are indicated wherever relevant. Colophons and various kinds of notes by scribes, readers, owners, and occasional visitors also receive attention, thus allowing interesting glimpses into the history not only of individual manuscripts, but also of the Monastery and its library.

Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-3046-9 The Sixth North American Syriac Symposium brought together scholars from across North America, Europe, the Middle East, and India. Syriac Encounters offers twenty-five papers that were originally delivered at the Symposium, and represents a cross-section of both the Symposium and the current state of Syriac studies more broadly. Although most of the papers in the volume focus on the late antique heyday of Syriac Christianity, several papers contribute to the study of other, related fields, including Islamic studies and Middle Eastern anthropology. The blossoming of Syriac studies beyond church historians and Semitic philologists can be attributed to a wider recognition of Syriac as a bridge language and culture linking (and fostering encounters between) Rome and Persia, Byzantium and Baghdad, and Christianity and Islam. SCRIPTS BEYOND BORDERS A Survey of Allographic Traditions in the Euro-Mediterranean World DEN HEIJER J., SCHMIDT A., PATARIDZE T.

BE This collection of essays deals with the phenomenon of allography, taken in the sense of the practice of writing a language in the script of another language. Although by no means all texts highlighted in the essays are of a religious character, they are written in the scripts that are connected with the three monotheistic traditions stemming from the Eastern Mediterranean: Judaism, Christianity and Islam. The time span covered ranges from Late Antiquity to (early) modern times. The volume contains studies on such cases as Aljamiado (Romance languages of Spain written in Arabic or Hebrew script but also Bosnian in Arabic script), Judaeo-Arabic, karshuni (Arabic but occasionally also other languages written in Syriac script), and various combinations of languages written in the Greek, Syriac, Armenian and Georgian scripts. In each case, the approach is both philological, concentrating on the various systems of adaptation of the scripts to the phonetics of the languages in question, and historical, with a focus on aspects of intercultural contact and exchange, as well as on the emergence and development of the various allographic traditions over time. Particularly important questions are whether specific communities used scripts of a language other than their own for practical or rather for ideological, identity-related considerations, and how these writing practices relate to the sociocultural contexts in which they functioned and developed. 23 BYZANTINE STUDIES CORPUS OF BYZANTINE CHURCH MOSAIC PAVEMENTS IN ISRAEL AND THE PALESTINIAN TERRITORIES MADDEN A.M. • • • • 2014 – Colloquia Antiqua 13 ca 250 p. Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-3061-2 This is a catalogue of church, chapel and monastery mosaic pavements discovered within the borders of Israel and the Palestinian Territories (Roman Palestine). Chronologically, it spans the early 4th to 8th centuries, the latter period seemingly designating the cessation of mosaic manufacture in early Christian edifices in Palestine based on current archaeological findings. Sites are arranged alphabetically and according to the four Roman provinces that encompassed the region, and to which it is believed each originally belonged. The primary name chosen for each site (in most cases) correlates with the site name used in the indispensable gazetteer Tabula Imperii Romani Iudaea Palaestina (1994), allowing for relatively simple site identification and cross-referencing. In order to simplify the mosaic design descriptions, the catalogue utilises a system of geometric pattern coding. For each site, a map reference is given for the Israel Grid, followed by a brief outline of its excavation or survey, a thorough description of the pavements including the coding system, inscriptions (if present), a commentary including proposed dates (if given) and bibliography. The indexes include a concise list of occurrences for each pattern code, figural designs and iconoclastic damage; for inscriptions, ecclesiastical titles, named mosaicists and cited provincial dating eras. EAST AND WEST IN THE MEDIEVAL EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN II Antioch from the Byzantine Reconquest until the End of the Crusader Principality CIGGAAR K., VAN AALST V. (eds) • 2013 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 199 • XVIII-411 p. • 85 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2393-5 This is the second volume on medieval Antioch which is meant to become a series of studies on less well-known aspects of the city’s eventful history. Its multi-ethnic, multi-religious and multi-linguistic character pose more than one problem which needs further investigation. Unknown material, new interpretations of texts, translations of unknown or less accessible texts accompanied by commentaries, are the main focus of this series of publications on Antioch. This volume reponds to this initiative. Various contributions highlight unknown or understudied aspects of this history, and stimulate further research and discussion on the various aspects of the history of this important and influential city in the Eastern Mediterranean.

That question can only be answered through a meticulous study of the transmission and transformation of both the melodies, the genres, and the whole musical culture of Late Byzantium and the subsequent centuries. This book presents a handful of studies focussing on both the development of new musical styles, such as the ornamented Kalofonia (‘Beautiful sound’), and on the education of the cantors, the psaltai. The role of the master cantors, the maïstores, their teachings, treatises, traditions, innovations, compositions, and the various modes of interpretation (exegesis) are among the topics covered by this collection of papers, written by specialist scholars of Byantine chant history. PEETERS PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSELLERS BYZANTINE STUDIES AESTHETIC MAINTENANCE OF CIVIC SPACE The ‘Classical’ City from the 4th to the 7th c. AD JACOBS I. • 2013 – Orientalia Lovaniensia Analecta 193 • XII-1028 p. • 120 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2302-7 In the Roman period, construction and maintenance of civic monuments and infrastructure were regarded as the normal duty of well-off citizens. For the subsequent centuries, encompassing the 4th to the 7th century AD, changing social and political conditions within the Roman Empire assumingly resulted in a severe reduction of expenditure and concurrent loss of sentimental and aesthetic attitudes towards public space. This book challenges this assumption. It reconstructs how cities of the Eastern Mediterranean in late antique and Early Byzantine times represented themselves towards outsiders by assessing the care given to urban fortifications, streets and squares, decorative and religious monuments and, finally, statuary. Thereafter, the architectural changes that distinguished these centuries from previous times are discussed. The book then evaluates the identity and motives of the diverse initiators of interventions, as well as the skills and work organisation of the actual constructors. Finally, the priorities of the users of public space, as well as their responses to it, are explored. PRODUCTION AND PROSPERITY IN THE THEODOSIAN PERIOD JACOBS I. (ed.) • 2014 – Interdisciplinary Studies in Ancient Culture and Religion 14 • XVI-397 p. • 67 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3012-4 Despite the large increase in material evidence datable to the Theodosian period (379-455 C.E.), textual sources still dominate our view of the period. This has led to a pretty bleak picture made up of foreign invasions, loss of territory, a weak ruler dynasty, a state-driven distribution system, and declining cities. And yet, many regions of the Roman Empire seem to have been doing quite well. For this reason, this volume aims at a re-evaluation of the prosperity of the Roman Empire under the Theodosii. Archaeological, historical, epigraphic and numismatic research are combined to investigate the vitality and socio-economic potential of distinct regions of the empire; to explore the relative importance of cities, villages, fortresses and estates in patterns of purchase and consumption; to gain insights into the mechanisms and forces underlying production, distribution and consumption of both staple goods and luxury products; and, eventually, to offer explanations for the general condition and functioning of the empire. «CONFORMÉMENT AUX OBSERVATIONS D’HIPPARQUE»: LE PAPYRUS FOUAD INV. 267 A FOURNET J.-L., TIHON A. • 2014 – Publications de l’Institut Orientaliste de Louvain 67 • IV-190 p. • 50 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3021-6 WWW .

(eds) • 2014 – Interdisciplinary Studies in Ancient Culture and Religion 15 • ca 400 p. • Forthcoming • ISBN 978-90-429-3135-0 This volume continues the series of five previous Roman Family publications, and puts special focus on social history and living conditions in the familial contexts. It concentrates on three interlinked aspects of family life and interaction: liminal situations regarding demography and ecological factors that lay down the framework for family life, liminal conditions on the edges of familial life regarding child labour, child slaves and sexual attitudes towards children, and local traditions which confront us with people and cultures at the borders of the Roman Empire. By focusing on three recurring points of departure (Late Antiquity, children and childhood, and the encounter between various cultures), and by presenting a wide variety of methodological approaches (from rhetorical analysis of discourses to statistical analysis, and from experiential life stories to iconographic analysis), the present volume offers a view on the status quaestionis of Roman family studies, and widens the thematic points of departure for the study of the Roman family, thus hopefully pointing to fruitful directions for further studies. PRIESTS AND PROPHETS AMONG PAGANS, JEWS AND CHRISTIANS DIGNAS B., PARKER R., STROUMSA G.G. (eds) • 2013 – Studies in the History and Anthropology of Religion 5 • XII-248 p. • 47 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2974-6 The emperor Julian pointed out that the duties of priesthood were better understood among ‘the impious Galileans’ (i.e. Christians) than among his pagan contemporaries. Like the emperor, the essays in this volume look in both directions. Its pages are populated by very diverse figures: Plutach, Aelius Aristides, Alexander of Abonouteichos, Daniel the Stylite, Gregory of Nazianzus, Shenoute of Atripe, Mani, Muhammad, and a host of anonymous Greek and Roman priests, prophets, and diviners. The priests of second temple Judaism are considered too. Both in the Greco-Roman and the early Christian worlds the neat division between priests and prophets proves hard to sustain. But in terms of fame and influence a strong contrast emerges between Greco-Roman and Judeo-Christian prophets; this is why it is only among Jews and Christians that ‘false prophets’ are feared. Two recurrent preoccupations are the relation of priests and prophets to secular power, and the priest/prophet not as reality but as idea, an imagined figure. Leading scholars of the religions of antiquity come together in this wide-ranging and innovative volume. WRITING MYTH Mythography in the Ancient World TRZASKOMA S.M., SMITH R.S. (eds) • 2013 – Studies in the History and Anthropology of Religion 4 • XXIV-382 p. • 45 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2911-1 26 This collection of essays brings innovative perspectives to the study of ancient mythography, that is, the writings of the Greeks and Romans about their own mythical traditions. It treats a range of sources from the beginnings of myth criticism in the 5th century BCE to the end of antiquity in the 5th century CE, highlighting mythography’s centrality to ancient views of myth and moving beyond seeing mythographic texts as valuable primarily for the preservation of details about traditional stories. Important individual mythographers are treated (e.g., Ps.-Apollodorus and Hyginus), but throughout there is an emphasis on the connections of mythography with more literary genres, such as epic, and more prestigious prose genres, such as historiography and geography. This makes the volume of interest for those who work on myth in Greek and Roman society, but also for anyone working on ancient intellectual history more broadly, including those who study rhetoric, education, literary composition, art and ancient scholarly traditions.

The main focus of the conference was discussion of and responses to his paper ‘Rethinking Cultural Contacts’ (Ancient West & East 8 [2009], 81-132 – reproduced as Appendix 1 in this volume). Ulf’s paper offered a model outlining the various forms of cultural contact and sought to explain how and why foreign goods and ideas were taken on and to what extent they were changed in shape and meaning. Just as it was no longer tenable to think of cultural contacts without taking into account the whole chain of exchange – producer, transmitter and recipient – then cultural exchange as a meaningful process of the exchange of goods and ideas between all people involved required an approach, hitherto lacking, by which it can be comprehensively analysed and explained. The contributors are ancient historians, classical archaeologists, philologists and Near Eastern specialists, thus providing a variety of perspectives on cultural exchange in the Mediterranean and the ancient Near East. REGIONALISM AND GLOBALISM IN ANTIQUITY Exploring Their Limits DE ANGELIS F. (ed.) • • • • 2013 – Colloquia Antiqua 7 XVI-362 p. 78 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2669-1 WWW . PEETERS - LEUVEN . BE How we concieve of the movement of ancient phenomena through time and space has been undergoing reassessment over the last two decades, causing the grip to be loosened on the well-entrenched interpretative models that had dominated research up to that point. The ‘Regionalism and Globalism in Antiquity’ conference, aimed to take stock of this situation and in particular to investigate in fresh ways how regional and global phenomena in the ancient Mediterranean, Near East and Eurasia shaped local life. Still today two models tend to guide explanations of intercultural and interregional contact and interaction: diffusionism from cores (or centres) to peripheries, involving ‘superior’ civilisations influencing other ‘inferior’ ones, and Mediterraneanism, the set of distinctive environmental, cultural and historical images that create a unified and unchanging view of the Mediterranean. These two models have come under increasing scrunity since the 1980s, as we have been living in a world of shifting perceptions of time and space and of greater interconnectedness that affects our everyday lives in numerous ways. The source of these shifts has been credited to globalisation, and with it has also come a greater historical appreciation of the phenomenon, including the recognition that the world has witnessed periods of globalisation since the end of the Ice Age. 27 GRAECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITY A COMPANION TO LINEAR B Mycenean Greek Texts and their World.

The tablets written in this script offer crucial information about the economy, administration, religion, institutions, etc. of the Mycenaean period. But who wrote these texts? What types of texts were they? How can we read them, understand them and interpret them? What do they teach us about the history, economy, religion, society, geography, technology, and language of the Mycenaean period? This Companion aims at answering these and other questions in a series of chapters written by internationally recognised specialists in the subject, who not only summarise the results of current research but also try to explain the problems which arise from the study of the texts and the methods which can be used to solve them. No Mycenologist can currently cover with authority the complete field and the Companion is aimed both at the beginner who needs an introduction to the whole area and to advanced scholars (archaeologists, historians, classicists) who require an up-todate account which can serve as a standard reference tool. Reactions to the first volume: “All Aegenists need to have this book.” (John G. Younger, American Journal of Archaeology) “Un excellent instrument, à tous les niveaux.” (Francisco Aura Jorro, L’Antiquité Classique) “We are awash with companions of varying composition and quality. Arguably, many are superfluous; this one is not... The companion under review seeks to make Linear B more accessible to students and interested scholars. It is far more complete, authoritative and up-to-date than any.” (Dimitri Nakassis, The Classical Review) “The best reference work for the content of the Linear B texts, their language, their value, and the historical contexts that produced them; very useful for students.” (Angelos Chaniotis, Ancient Crete: Oxford Bibliographies Online Research Guide) DONUM MYCENOLOGICUM Mycenaean Studies in Honour of Francisco Aura Jorro BERNABÉ A., LUJÁN E.R.

These vessels contained offerings, yet the vessels themselves were also offerings, serving as permanent records of a ritual act. These rituals were most likely communal, incorporating group feasting and drinking. The seasonality of these rituals suggests that they were focused on the cycle of life: fertility, birth, death and renewal. Offerings left with the vessels suggest that these rituals also addressed other, more personal concerns. As for Linear A itself: the language behind the script appears to contain a fairly standard phonemic inventory, though there are hints of additional, more exotic phonemes. The morphology of the language appears to involve affixation, a typical mode of inflection in human languages. The presence of significant prefixing tends to rule out PIE as a parent language, while the word-internal vowel alternations typical of Afroasiatic verbal inflection are nowhere to be found in this script. In the end, Linear A appears most likely to represent a non-IE, non-Afroasiatic language, perhaps with agglutinative tendencies, and perhaps with VSO word order.

The Icon Theory of Aegean glyptic art which encompasses all aspects of the complex iconography and the IconAegean standard vocabulary which reflects the visual language of the seal designs together give the reader a framework for discussion and study that has long been called for by researchers. In this book the reader is taken deep into the seal designs and asked to ponder anew the images in these miniature masterpieces that were of such importance to their Aegean owners. The exposition of the work of the icon in creating memorable seal designs is cogently argued through seal examples. The presentation of the terms of the standard vocabulary in an illustrated dictionary format makes the detail of the seal designs accessible as never before. The copiously illustrated closing discussion on design revises some of the old nomenclature, identifies new motifs and elucidates relationships between image groupings. This book takes a fresh view of the glyptic material, one that may surprise, but one that certainly provides new insights into the subtle, sophisticated and polyvalent iconography of the seal designs.

(ed.) • • • • 2014 – Babesch Supplement 25 VIII-196 p. 87 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-3091-9 This volume is designed as a wide-ranging analysis of ceramic standardization and variation, and as a contribution to pottery studies in the Mediterranean and beyond. It originates in a conference session at the 16th Annual Meeting of the European Association of Archaeologists. Some of the most enduring questions archaeologists raise are explicitly or implicitly formulated around the concepts of standardization and variation. Yet, the significance of these concepts has rarely been acknowledged in archaeological literature and their full potential for the study of ancient culture remains underexplored. To demonstrate the significance of these concepts for the study of material culture, we adopt here a cross-cultural and diachronic perspective. The range of approaches pursued is broad and involves traditional stylistic analyses, applications of archaeological science, statistical methodologies, and post-processual considerations. The result will hopefully stimulate pottery experts and specialists in other categories of artifacts to revisit their material from different and fresh angles.

(eds) • • • • 2013 – Babesch Supplement 23 VIII-350 p. 85 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2897-8 This volume is the outcome of the first conference to take place on the topic of Greek baths and bathing culture, a central but hitherto neglected area in the field of ancient studies. Fifteen papers by an international group of archaeologists, art historians and ancient historians discuss Greek bathing culture from a socio-historical and cultural-anthropological perspective, resulting in a comprehensive reassessment that elucidates the sophistication of both the architecture and the culture of bathing throughout the Greek world. Individual papers examine bathing in the context of science, medicine and the cultural discourses coded in images on vases, while the majority focus on the archaeological evidence itself, as the crucial component in this reassessment that removes Greek baths from the traditional category of ‘primitive predecessors’ to Roman baths. From Greece and Egypt in the east, to Sicily, southern Italy and France in the west, new information from recent excavations is brought to bear on a wide range of related issues, including urban contexts, regional variations in experimental design and construction, innovations in technology, and the social meaning of the rise of bathing culture in the Hellenistic period. This book also provides the first comprehensive catalog of all known Greek public baths (balaneia), including descriptions, plans and bibliographies, as a major reference tool for future comparative research on ancient bathing culture and beyond.

These are exciting developments, but the proliferation of analytical techniques may also lead to over-specialization and fragmentation of the field. The papers in this volume explore the relation between diet, economy and society in the ancient Greek world by integrating different analytical techniques. Examples include the analysis of plant and animal remains, the bioarchaeological study of human remains, stable isotope and dental microwear analysis as well as the examination of organic residues. However, the aim of this volume is not only to compare different methods of analysis, but also to integrate method and theory and to reflect more widely on the integration of science and archaeology. The volume concludes with the report of a Round Table discussion on the institutional framework and the regulations surrounding the practice of archaeological science in Greece, as well as the ethical obligations of the practitioners.

The author is convinced that the Aegean cultures of the Bronze and Iron Ages are to be seen as the dissociated links in a long historical chain uniting an infant Europe with the maternal womb of Eurasia. He carried out on the spiritual world of the Bronze Age man, his relation to nature, his notions of life and death, space and time, his critical values and aesthetic tastes. A detailed description of Greek society and its culture during the period of the so-called Dark Ages is given, and finally special attention has been paid to the critical 8th century BC, the century of Homer, which marks the actual starting point of the history of Ancient Greece. The significance of this manuscript is that all evidence that excavations have revealed, has been incorporated.

HAUBEN H., MEEUS A. (eds) • • • • 2014 – Studia Hellenistica 53 XVI-733 p. 105 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2958-6 After conquering one of the biggest empires the world has ever seen, Alexander the Great died prematurely in 323 B.C., without leaving a suitable heir to the throne. During the next decades his generals, thenceforth known as the Diadochoi or Successors, unremittingly fought over the king’s inheritance. The balance of power which ultimately resulted from their struggle would determine the course of events in the eastern Mediterranean for centuries to come. Despite its historical importance many aspects of the age of the Successors remain underexplored. Written by leading international specialists, the 24 contributions to this book help in remedying that situation by addressing new issues or shedding fresh light on old questions. They not only explore the written and material evidence for the epoch, the Successors’ armies and military campaigns, their political ambitions and relationships with Greek cities, but they also address several social, economic, religious, numismatic, art-historical and urbanistic issues. They will significantly enhance our knowledge of the creation of the Hellenistic kingdoms as well as on the then prevailing dynastic ideas and practices. The book is of interest to students of Hellenistic history and archaeology, and Greek historiography. CULTS, CREEDS AND IDENTITIES IN THE GREEK CITY AFTER THE CLASSICAL AGE ALSTON R., VAN NIJF O.M., WILLIAMSON C.G. (eds) • 2013 – Groningen-Royal Holloway Studies on the Greek City after the Classical Age 3 • XII-399 p. • 75 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2714-8 This volume investigates the complex and diverse developments in the religious cultures of Greek cities after the classical age. An international team of scholars considers the continuities of traditional Greek religious practices, and seeks to understand the impact of new influences on those practices, notably the deeper engagement with Judaism and how the emergence of Christianity redefined polis religion. The essays illustrate the inadequacy of ‘decline’ as a model for understanding Greek religion, exploring how dynamic change in religious life corresponded to the transformations in the Greek city. The volume explores how the citizens of the Greek city after the classical age used religion to construct their cultural identities and political experiences and how many of the features of traditional polis religion survived into and shaped the religious mentalities of the Christian era. LE SYSTÈME CONCEPTUEL DE L’ORDRE DU MONDE DANS LA PENSÉE GRECQUE À L’ÉPOQUE ARCHAÏQUE Timß, mo⁄ra, kósmov, qémiv et díkj chez Homère et Hésiode DU SABLON V. • 2014 – Collection d’Études Classiques 27 • VI-351 p. • 48 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-2968-5 32 Cet ouvrage cherche à comprendre l’idée d’ordre chez Homère et Hésiode par une analyse de notions essentielles s’y rattachant, tant à l’échelle humaine (ordre politique, communautaire et social) que cosmique (ordre dans le monde des dieux et dans les relations hommes-dieux). L’étude de timè, moira, kosmos, themis et dikè et de leurs contextes homériques et hésiodiques permet d’établir les nuances entre ces termes, qui ont chacun été définis comme désignant un «ordre» sans que leurs liens sémantiques n’aient toutefois fait l’objet d’un examen d’ensemble. Cette recherche démontre l’existence d’une conception similaire de l’ordre du monde, d’Homère à Hésiode, au-delà de l’opposition souvent alléguée entre leurs poésies. Si Hésiode ne s’écarte pas d’une conception «aristocratique», comme l’établit aussi une analyse des rôles des basileis et de leur relation avec Zeus dans l’épopée, la prééminence qu’il accorde à la notion de dikè est symptomatique d’un ajustement de la tradition aux réalités contemporaines des communautés archaïques. À travers les idées de juste part et de reconnaissance sociale, de convenance, de justice humaine et divine ainsi que des comportements qui en découlent se dessine un système conceptuel par lequel la pensée grecque archaïque a pu appréhender le monde et l’organisation des sociétés humaines, en conformité avec un ordre sanctionné par Zeus. PEETERS PUBLISHERS AND BOOKSELLERS GRAECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITY HELLENISTIC POETRY IN CONTEXT HARDER M.A., REGTUIT R.F., WAKKER G.C. (eds) This volume is devoted to Hellenistic poetry in the context of the contemporary world of third century Alexandria and beyond. This topic fits in with the increasing interest in the role of literature in ancient society in recent research, which has already been applied successfully to various aspects of Hellenistic poetry. The subject also has an added interest because for a long time there has been a tendency to regard this kind of poetry as art for art’s sake, a kind of autonomous poetry and display of virtuosity among scholar-poets, who indulged in being as sophisticated as possible without being in touch with the real world. This view has been rightly challenged in recent years and the articles in this volume reflect this new approach, as the authors investigate the ways in which Hellenistic poetry played a part in its social and cultural context. • • • • 2013 – Hellenistica Groningana 20 X-349 p. 64 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2985-2 THE GREEK FIGURE POEMS KWAPISZ J. The earliest European specimens of visual poetry are found in the literature of the ancient Greeks: these are six famous technopaegnia, which were composed between the end of the fourth century BC and the first half of the second century AD by poets such as Simias of Rhodes, a scholar-poet and precursor of Callimachus, or Iulius Vestinus, an important official at Hadrian’s court. The present book provides an edition of the six Greek figure poems, which is accompanied by an extensive commentary and the introduction to various aspects of this mini-genre.

BE Despite the difficulties of reconstructing the grammar of a dead language, studying Ancient Greek offers new insights for linguistic theory. The morphological complexity of the Greek verb with its highly intricate inflectional system provides a valuable basis for an in-depth analysis of the mechanisms which regulate the functioning of a language. Studies on the Ancient Greek verb have also contributed significantly to the reconstruction of the Indo-European language since the early history of Linguistics in the nineteenth century. The conservative features preserved in the oldest stages of Greek allow us to rely on a solid basis to which every linguist must refer in investigating a model of the Proto-Indo-European verb. The present volume contains the papers presented at the 8th International Meeting on Greek Linguistics. The contributions of this book analyze phonological, morphological, syntactic and semantic phenomena from various areas of grammar pertaining to the verb, using a large corpus which ranges mostly from Homeric to Classical Greek. This volume provides a current overview of some work on Ancient Greek Linguistics, setting forth interesting topics for further research and drawing more attention to the contribution which historical linguistics and the study of dead languages can give to the improvement and growth of linguistic theories, toward a deeper comprehension of the language system. 33 GRAECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITY SYLLOGE NUMMORUM GRAECORUM: STATE PUSHKIN MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS Coins of the Black Sea Region.

Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-2922-7 This fascicule represents the second part of the first volume of Sylloge Nummorum Graecorum of the State Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts devoted to the coins of the Black Sea littoral. It comprises detailed descriptions and illustrations of the coin issues struck by the Greek cities situated on the western, southern and eastern shores of the Black Sea up to Roman times, thereby completing the publication of coin material from the circumpontic area stored in the Pushkin Museum. Despite the relative small number of coins (fewer than 500 pieces) there are quite rare specimens among them originating from important pre-revolutionary private collections such as those of Rozanov and Bobrinskii. Most of the coins have never been published before and will be of special interest to scholars.

This work, containing 3358 entries, is a first attempt, casting light on the mobility of different social and professional groups, not only mercenaries and merchants but also itinerant philosophers and artists. It demonstrates that the Black Sea was well integrated into the main circles of the Greek, Roman and Early Byzantine world. Chronologically, the work starts with the earliest attestations and finishes with the end of the 6th century AD. It includes not only people attested by external documents but also persons mentioned by internal inscriptions as having travelled or died outside their country. The area of investigation covers the entire Black Sea coast. The Prosopographia Ptolemaica is used as a model. Each entry follows a set form: name; family relationships (father/mother, son/daughter, brother/sister); type of inscription or category of papyrus; profession or further data on the person’s activity; form of the ethnic; dating; testimonies and bibliographical references. For each heading the geographical order of attestations is that of the SEG. There are very detailed indexes (names, cases of double or multiple citizenship, proxenies or other honours awarded abroad, professional categories, etc.).

Rather than discussing the identifiers themselves, the contributions focus on the selection of elements such as names, genealogy, titles, or ethnics, as well as on legal confirmation of identity in the form of witnesses, seals or signatures. The varying socio-onomastic and legal conventions illustrate intense cultural exchange as well as regional traditions in the Ancient World, and this collection of papers will be of interest to both social and legal historians. OSTIA SPEAKS Inscriptions, Buildings and Spaces in Rome’s Main Port VAN DER MEER L.B. • • • • 2012 XII-129 p. 27 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2700-1 This monograph provides a brief introduction to the material history of Ostia, Rome’s harbour town from ca 300 BC until ca AD 600, before centring on about one hundred Latin as well as some Greek inscriptions, some of which are previously unpublished. It focuses on inscriptions which are still present in situ, in forty-two places. They range in date from ca 100 BC until ca AD 420. They belong to and cast light upon buildings, monuments, urban spaces and tombs. Each inscription is presented in full, supplemented by abbreviated names and words, translated into English, dated, and commented upon from a contextual point of view. Sometimes inscriptions that are not in situ, as well as relevant ancient texts, are quoted and translated in order to sketch a broader picture. The comments are based on a critical evaluation of the most recent archaeological, historical and epigraphic publications. Several new interpretations result from own research. The inscriptions cast light upon political, socio-economic, religious (pagan and Christian), and funerary aspects of the multi-ethnic Ostian society, its relation with Rome and the Mediterranean world. The publication is intended not only for scholars, teachers and students, but also for historians, classicists, philologists, linguists, epigraphists, archaeologists and art historians. It may also prove a useful vademecum for those who intend to visit or have visited Ostia Antica. THE ROMAN SANCTUARY SITE AT PESSINUS From Phrygian to Byzantine Times VERLINDE A. • • • • 2014 – Monographs on Antiquity 7 ca 450 p. Forthcoming ISBN 978-90-429-3056-8 WWW . PEETERS - LEUVEN . BE This book presents an in-depth architecture historical and archaeological analysis of the sanctuary site at Pessinus. Dr Angelo Verlinde brings together and scrutinizes all the archaeological data that has been excavated and registered in the period 1967-2008. The discussed topics span a vast period (c. 400 BC - 1000 AD) ranging from the modest early Phrygian dwellings, over the Hellenistic ‘citadel’ and ‘gymnasium’, to the Augustan theatre-temple and its Byzantine afterlife. The emphasis lays on Roman imperial architecture in Asia Minor, and especially on the mathematical and stylistic design principles of temples and their Roman influences. The process of reconstruction is elaborated beyond the traditional showcase-element towards the tentative elucidation of ancient design principles in light of ‘Vitruvian normality’ and analogous architectural data. For this reason, the book includes a detailed catalogue of the architectural elements. 35 GRAECO-ROMAN ANTIQUITY LE DECORAZIONI DIPINTE E MARMOREE DELLA DOMUS AUREA DI NERONE A ROMA MEYBOOM P.G.P., MOORMANN E.M. • • • • 2013 – Babesch Supplement 20 VIII-287 p. + VIII-190 p.

This edifice was part of Nero’s Domus Aurea, situated in the Augustan Regio III alongside the southern slope of the Colle Oppio in the modern Parco delle Terme di Traiano. This building was a large pavilion within Nero’s properties which extended over the Oppius and Esquiline hills. It was built after the Great Fire of July AD 64, which devastated a large part of the centre of Rome and gave the Emperor the occasion to fulfill a long-fostered wish, i.e. that of connecting his properties (forming more or less a series of horti) with the official palace on the Palatine. It has a depth of 55 to 60 metres and its actual length is around two hundred metres. Some hundred and fifty rooms have been preserved. The height of the rooms varies between ten and eleven metres.

(eds) • • • • 2013 – Babesch Supplement 22 VIII-170 p. 76 EURO ISBN 978-90-429-2905-0 This volume explores the impact of religious traditions on the physical and social organisation of cities in the ancient world. The contributors draw on diverse theories, methods and evidence to identify the existence of broad similarities and differences in the urban religious experience. Individual papers range from the Roman Republican period to Late Antiquity, and encompass the city of Rome, Italy, and both the eastern and western provinces. Specific themes include the relationship between liturgy and temple architecture, the influence of religious traditions on civic spaces, and the impact of Christianity on the pagan city. Together, these papers make the case for the centrality of ritual and religion in the experience of the ancient city and throw light on current debates by providing historical examples of the varied ways in which communities accommodate changing religious practices in the urban fabric.

Papers on Mediterranean Archaeology and Greek & Roman Studies 8 • XII-220 p. • 60 EURO • ISBN 978-90-429-3009-4 36 Research into Pre-Roman Burial Grounds in Italy results from a specialist workshop held at the University of Groningen in 2011 highlighting new results in the field of funerary archaeology. It contains papers on funerary sites in Italy ranging from Verucchio in Emila Romagna to Francavilla Marittima in Calabria between the 9th and 4th centuries BC. Four papers deal with the hundreds of tombs excavated at Crustumerium (Rome). Other papers deal with the necropoleis of Francavilla Marittima, Satricum, Verucchio, Vetulonia and Veii. The volume concludes with an article on the excavation of 3700 medieval and later graves around St. Peter’s church in the centre of Berlin offering an example of recent developments in recording and assessing large funerary datasets. Archaeologists working on pre-Roman Italy are indeed frequently confronted with large burial grounds holding hundreds to thousands of graves and having complex excavation and publication histories. These and other challenges of funerary archaeology are conscientiously and creatively addressed by the authors in this volume.

J.-C. jusqu’au VIème siècle de notre ère, cet ouvrage s’est imposé depuis sa parution comme une référence dans le domaine des lettres classiques. Il est à présent offert au public francophone, enrichi d’une importante mise à jour bibliographique. Par sa structure systématique, le livre se prête autant à une lecture suivie qu’à une consultation plus ponctuelle, facilitée aussi par le volumineux index. Tout en suivant une approche chronologique, il accorde une place priviligiée aux genres littéraires, présentés dans une série de chapitres diachroniques qui n’ont guère d’équivalent dans les manuels francophones. Autre spécificité, l’attention portée à la permanence des œuvres latines de l’Antiquité dans les lettres et les arts: la présentation de chaque auteur s’achève par un aperçu – d’ampleur inégalée dans les ouvrages correspondants – de son influence sur la littérature latine postérieure et sur les écrivains, artistes et penseurs qu’il inspira, du Moyen Âge à nos jours. À la fois érudite et accessible, cette histoire de la littérature n’est pas seulement un outil de travail précieux pour les étudiants et professeurs en lettres classiques et modernes, mais offre, à toutes les personnes qu’intéressent la culture européenne et ses racines antiques, une introduction idéale à notre héritage latin.

PEETERS - LEUVEN . BE Cet ouvrage constitue la première étude systématique de l’anaphore, de la cataphore et de la deixis chez Plaute. L’étude porte spécifiquement sur les mécanismes anaphoriques, cataphoriques et déictiques mis en œuvre par les pronoms-adjectifs is, hic, iste, ille et par les adverbes faits sur le même thème. Le choix de l’œuvre intégrale de Plaute a été dicté par l’archaïsme de sa langue et par le registre de langue familière qui ajoute des connotations spécifiques aux emplois des pronoms-adjectifs et des adverbes déictiques. Une analyse approfondie de l’ensemble de leurs emplois a permis un affinement de leur sens et, par là même, un affinement de leur traduction, qui, si elle est mécanique, laisse échapper d’importants effets de sens. L’analyse proposée s’appuie en premier lieu sur les faits de grammaire mais aussi sur l’interprétation scénique du texte; cette interprétation permet de dégager des nuances importantes dont il faut rendre compte dans une approche discursive. Le rôle de ces pronoms-adjectifs est d’attirer l’attention de l’interlocuteur sur ce que le locuteur va énoncer. Les emplois déictiques de hic, iste, ille, qui sont des symboles indexicaux incomplets, confirment leur assignation traditionnelle aux “personnes grammaticales” et leur valeur en rapport direct avec les rôles discursifs. 37 BERBER STUDIES ENCYCLOPÉDIE BERBÈRE Fasc.

L’énumération des objets et des terrains auquels s’est intéressé Marceau Gast ressemble à un inventaire à la Prévert, mais leur apparente disparité poursuit une interrogation fondamentale: comment survivre en milieu extrême? C’est en effet une cohérence forte qui se dégage des questions récurrentes posées par ce chercheur qui aimait la vie: quelles solutions matérielles et immatérielles inventent les hommes pour se nourrir, se protéger, s’apparenter et construire leur société dans des environnements particulièrement hostiles comme la montagne ou le désert qui fut pour lui également une véritable école de vie. Le livre rassemble des contributions qui montrent les multiples facettes de l’itinéraire, des terrains et des objets d’étude de ce chercheur original. Ethnologue, spécialiste du monde touareg, Marceau Gast a été un précurseur des études sur l’alimentation, les techniques et la culture matérielle des Touaregs de l’Ahaggar (dans les années 1960), avant de s’engager dans des thématiques d’anthropologie sociale: structures de parenté, héritage, histoire et tradition orales. L’ethnologie du Sahara central n’a pas été son unique horizon: ouvert à la comparaison, il a mené des enquêtes également en Kabylie, au Yémen, dans le Queyras et en Haute Provence et a participé à de nombreux programmes interdisciplinaires associant ethnologues, préhistoriens, anthropologues, nutritionistes, biologistes. Ses nombreux ami(e)s et collègues, du Sahara, du CRAPE (Alger), du LAPMO, de l’IREMAM (Aix-en-Provence) et d’ailleurs ont voulu à l’occasion de la rencontre organisée par Salem Chaker et Hélène Claudot-Hawad les 14 et 15 mars 2011 à Aix-en-Provence rendre hommage à l’homme et au chercheur à la carrière remarquable, par la profondeur de son ancrage dans un terrain, sa diversité et son ouverture aux disciplines connexes, son ouverture à l’Autre et aux autres, notamment aux jeunes chercheurs qu’il était toujours prêt à aider et à conseiller.

Il tient compte du seul manuscrit existant de ce Midrash (Munich 222) et de ses trois éditions imprimées (celle d’A. Jellinek en 1873, celle de J.D. Eisenstein en 1915 et la version anonyme des presses de Traklin, publiée à Varsovie en 1924), pour en donner une première traduction. Il tente d’éclairer la relation qu’il entretient avec la reste de la littérature rabbinique classique, tout particulièrement avec le Midrash Tehillim. Il s’interroge enfin sur son caractère éventuellement mystique. Même s’il est un recueil mineur, le Midrash Hallel ne peut qu’intéresser ceux qui cherchent à mieux connaître les canaux par lesquels certaines traditions, notamment mystiques, ont transité entre l’époque antique et celle du Moyen Âge.

Dans une section de six chapitres intitulée «La question de Janaka» (Janakaprasna), le roi Kārtaviryārjuna rend visite à Dattātreya, afin de recevoir un enseignement sur l’advaita, la «non-dualité». Ce dernier lui rapporte l’enseignement que le sage Asita transmit autrefois au roi mythique Janaka. Cette «question de Janaka», à l’instar des UpaniÒad, se présente sous la forme d’un dialogue entre un maître et un disciple. La thématique au cœur de ce dialogue concerne la nature du brahman et son rapport au corps. Elle permet à l’auteur de faire montre de l’étendue de son savoir dans des domaines aussi riches que variés: le développement embryonaire et les théories physiologiques, les conceptions cosmogoniques, les paradoxes de la non-dualité et les disciplines de salut, en particulier le yoga, influencé par des conceptions tantriques. Cette editio princeps du Janakaprasna est accompagnée d’une traduction et d’un commentaire qui approfondit les thématiques abordées, avec une attention particulière pour l’identification des sources et des textes parallèles.

Ces rois hindous ont laissé des sources diverses et nombreuses qui donnent accès à leur conception du monde et de la société, en particulier à leur représentation de la royauté. Cette étude montre, en examinant des éloges épigraphiques et iconographiques, mais aussi les monnaies et un poème de cour en tamoul (le Nantikkalampakam), qu’il existe à côté du modèle brahmanique de la subordination du roi au brahmane, un discours royal propre, voire contestataire. Ce premier tome contient l’introduction et la présentation des sources de cette étude. Sa première partie est une introduction à la royauté hindoue et à la dynastie des Pallava (origine, histoire, art). Dans la deuxième partie est établi et présenté le corpus des sources considérées comme témoignant du discours royal, à distinguer d’autres sources d’époque pallava qui ne sont pas royales, mais locales.

Anyone who is interested in ancient Greeks and Romans and their contacts with India and Sri Lanka is faced with the inconvenience of the vague location of places as well as the often arbitrary spelling of the names. The present monograph fills the gap. It consists of an alphabetical index and an atlas. The data of this volume is compiled from Diodorus, Strabo, Pomponius Mela, Quintus Curtius, Plinius Maior, Periplus, Arrianus, Ptolemaios and Kosmas Indicopleustes. Each entry is followed by a reference to the ancient work and to modern authors dealing with it. The index contains the names with their synonyms, variant spelling and essential notes regarding their identification and location. A system of cross-references interlinks synonymous toponyms. In order to complete the link between the place-names and their exact location it proved useful to appendix a set of gridded maps (33). Places are plotted on the maps. The index and atlas form an indispensable research and work tool for all interested in ancient toponyms and in their identification and location.
