  • Sicily's Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions 2021
    YOUR O.A.T. ADVENTURE TRAVEL PLANNING GUIDE® Sicily’s Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions 2021 Small Groups: 8-16 travelers—guaranteed! (average of 13) Overseas Adventure Travel ® The Leader in Personalized Small Group Adventures on the Road Less Traveled 1 Dear Traveler, At last, the world is opening up again for curious travel lovers like you and me. And the O.A.T. Sicily’s Ancient Landscapes & Timeless Traditions itinerary you’ve expressed interest in will be a wonderful way to resume the discoveries that bring us so much joy. You might soon be enjoying standout moments like these: Who doesn’t love to eat in Italy? But Sicilian food, which is heavily influenced by the Arabs who thrived here, is in a league of its own. Sample the local flavors when you visit the Tunisian-inflected town of Mazara del Vallo and share a traditional Sicilian lunch with a local family. As you savor the home-cooked fare, you’ll learn how the city’s identity continues to evolve, and the vital role of the local fishing industry. You’ll also visit a home of a very different sort, one that traveler Carol Bowman described as “a house full of hope.” It’s Casa di Maria, an organization (and Grand Circle Foundation partner) established by a family in Catania to provide a loving home for children who are refugees or victims of neglect and domestic violence. The daughter-in-law of the founders (Sergio and Carmela) will enlighten you about Sicily’s foster care system. And you’ll meet more of the Casa’s extended family, including a young Nigerian woman who literally showed up on Sicily’s shores with nothing and grew up here, and hear her harrowing—but ultimately inspiring—story.

  • Workshops of Apulian
    - . WORKSHOPSOF APULIAN RED-FIGURE OUTSIDE TARANTO E. G. D. Robinson The publication of The Red-figured Vasesof Apulia brought, for the first time, structure to a massive body of information. The classification of thousands of vases, on the basis of style, has opened the way to other kinds of studies. One such study is offered here with gratitude to Alexander Cambitoglou from a colleague and former pupil. Since the beginning of the study of Apulian red-figured vases, there has been controversy over the localization of its workshops.l It is now accepted that Apulian red-figured vases were first made in Taranto; only late in the series are Apulian workshops outside Taranto postulated. It is widely recognized that one important late group, comprising the Baltimore Painter, Arpi Painter, White SaccosPainter and others, worked in Canosa or somewhere close by.2 Other painters, outside this broad stylistic grouping, may be strongly associatedwith one site, like the Laterza Painter with Salapia and the Lampas Painter with Canosa.3Caution should be exercised if, as in these two cases, a large proportion of the vases with proveniences come from one tomb.4 The acquisition of large groups of vases by one painter, who need not have been working locally, for placementin a tomb is commonin the later 4th cent. BC. The presencein : Rutigliano (1976) Tomb 24 of seven vases by the Painter of the Berlin Dancing Girl i shows that the phenomenon exists right from the beginning of the Apulian series.s The present study aims to use the stylistic groups and proveniences published in RVAp for a simple statistical survey.6 It will firstly look at the proveniences of vases in Late Apulian red-figure, to examine the possible localization of workshops in northern Apulia.

  • Nordlit 33, 2014 TOMBA DEI TORI at TARQUINIA
    TOMBA DEI TORI AT TARQUINIA: A RITUAL READING J. Rasmus Brandt Introduction: the Tomba dei Tori One of the best known, but also among the most enigmatic tombs at Tarquinia, is the so- called Tomba dei Tori (Tomb of the Bulls), dated to about 540–530 BC.1 It contains a series of paintings of different thematic content including two erotic scenes, which from a modern point of view have either been ignored or considered shameless and not congruent with death and funerary practices. In this article modern morale shall not be discussed, rather funerary rituals in an Etruscan setting. The tomb was of the tumulus type with a long, stepped dromos descending into the calcareous bedrock, ending in a large rectangular funerary chamber (A) (4.31 x 4.52 m, H. 2.52 m) with a saddle roof. In the back wall two doors opened into two smaller, parallel chambers, also with saddle roofs: to the left (B) (3.47 x 2.52 m, H. 2.10 m), to the right (C) (3.26 x 2.52 m, H. 2.00 m). The back wall of chamber A was decorated with four zones of paintings, one above the other, two panels (1–2) between the doors to chambers B and C, a band above the doors across the whole width of the room (3), and on top the pediment/tympanon area created by the saddle roof (4) (Fig. 1):2 1. Bottom panel (dado) (Figs 1–2): Simply sketched trees with stem and branches with and without foliage; wreaths and ribbons hang from the branches.

Avoiding the travails of the road, you arrived by ship at the port of Ostia; from there, you’ve had a short journey up the Via Ostiensis into Roma herself. What do you see there? 3 Quam pulchra est urbs aeterna! • What is there to see in Rome? • What are some monuments you have heard of? • How old are the buildings in Rome? • How long would it take you to see everything important? 4 Map of Roma 5 The Roman Forum • “According to the Roman legend, Romulus and Tatius, after the mediation of the Sabine women, met on the very spot where the battle had been fought, and made peace and an alliance. The spot, a low, damp, grassy field, exposed to the floods of the river Spinon, took the name of “Comitium” from the verb coire, to assemble. It is possible that, in consequence of the alliance, a road connecting the Sabine and the Roman settlements was made across these swamps; it became afterwards the Sacra Via…. 6 The Roman Forum • “…Tullus Hostilius, the third king, built a stone inclosure on the Comitium, for the meeting of the Senators, named from him Curia Hostilia; then came the state prison built by Ancus Marcius in one of the quarries (the Tullianum). The Tarquin [kings] drained the land, gave the Forum a regular (trapezoidal) shape, divided the space around its borders into building- lots, and sold them to private speculators for shops and houses, the fronts of which were to be lined with porticoes.” --Rodolfo Lanciani, The Ruins and Excavations of Ancient Rome, 1897, p.

Department of Classics, June, 2018. ADVISOR: Hans-Friedrich Mueller. I analyze the Pantheon, one of the most well-preserVed buildings from antiquity, through time. I start with Agrippa's Pantheon, the original Pantheon that is no longer standing, which was built in 27 or 25 BC. What did it look like originally under Augustus? Why was it built? We then shift to the Pantheon that stands today, Hadrian-Trajan's Pantheon, which was completed around AD 125-128, and represents an example of an architectural reVolution. Was it eVen a temple? We also look at the Pantheon's conversion to a church, which helps explain why it is so well preserVed.

  • The GIS Application to the Spatial Data Organization of the Necropolis of Poseidonia-Paestum (Salerno, Italy)
    The GIS Application to the Spatial Data Organization of the Necropolis of Poseidonia-Paestum (Salerno, Italy) A. SANTORIELLO', F. U. SCELZA', R. GALLOTTP, R. BOVE\ L. SIRANGELO', A. PONTRANDOLFO' ' University of Salemo, Department of Cultural Heritage, Laboratory of Archaeology "M. Napoli", Italy ' CRdC "Innova", Department of Cultural Heritage, University of Salemo, Italy ' Independent Software Developer ABSTRACT This paper concerns about the spatial organization and the thematic management of the Poseidonia and Paestum's urban funeral areas. The wide archaeological heritage, investigated since the beginning of XIX century, had been studied using different research methodologies. These studies led to several inhomogeneous documents. First of all, we have to notice the absence of a general topographical map concerning the exact localization of each grave. In front of this scenario, the aim for the researcher consisted in the documentary source's collection and the integration in order to construct an unique cartographical base to use as a corner stone for the Paestum 's plain. This base has been realized through the acquisition of multi-temporal and multi- scalar supports. These different data have been organized within a Geographical Information System, according to the same cartographical projection system. The burial ground's geo-localisation has been realized through survey control operations, carried out by a satellite positioning system (GPS- Glonass) with subcentrimetrical resolution. The second phase of the research aimed to the database construction in order to collect analytical records, relevant to each tomb, and to link the archaeological data to the geographical entities previously created. The target was to create an informative layer, selective and comprehensive at the same time, able to process specific thematic questions, analysis of singular funerary context and comparative examination of the entire necropolis.

  • The Mythology of the Ara Pacis Augustae: Iconography and Symbolism of the Western Side
    Acta Ant. Hung. 55, 2015, 17–43 DOI: 10.1556/068.2015.55.1–4.2 DAN-TUDOR IONESCU THE MYTHOLOGY OF THE ARA PACIS AUGUSTAE: ICONOGRAPHY AND SYMBOLISM OF THE WESTERN SIDE Summary: The guiding idea of my article is to see the mythical and political ideology conveyed by the western side of the Ara Pacis Augustae in a (hopefully) new light. The Augustan ideology of power is in the modest opinion of the author intimately intertwined with the myths and legends concerning the Pri- mordia Romae. Augustus strove very hard to be seen by his contemporaries as the Novus Romulus and as the providential leader (fatalis dux, an expression loved by Augustan poetry) under the protection of the traditional Roman gods and especially of Apollo, the Greek god who has been early on adopted (and adapted) by Roman mythology and religion. Key words: Apollo, Ara, Augustus, Pax Augusta, Roma Aeterna, Saeculum Augustum, Victoria The aim of my communication is to describe and interpret the human figures that ap- pear on the external western upper frieze (e.g., on the two sides of the staircase) of the Ara Pacis Augustae, especially from a mythological and ideological (i.e., defined in the terms of Augustan political ideology) point of view. I have deliberately chosen to omit from my presentation the procession or gathering of human figures on both the Northern and on the Southern upper frieze of the outer wall of the Ara Pacis, since their relationship with the iconography of the Western and of the Eastern outer-upper friezes of this famous monument is indirect, although essential, at least in my humble opinion.

  • A Fam Trip to Southern Italy
    During the second half of March 2010 we organised, together with the T.O. Media Tours from Zurich, an important event: A fam trip to Southern Italy 40 participants on behalf of the most important bus companies in Switzerland: a journey through 6 beautiful regions, visiting marvellous and dreamlike places like the Amalfi coast and Paestum, the national park of Cilento (pure nature), the Costa Viola (known for the colour of its waters), Taormina and the coast of Cyclops, Piazza Armerina and Palermo. The trip continued to Liguria where the visit of Genoa was planned; then, to bring the journey to a worthy end, they enjoyed an aperitif while travelling around the Borromee islands. The package price included 3 overnight stays in a 4* hotel, 4 rich lunches, an enlarged aperitif, a typical Sicilian breakfast, two boat trips with aperitif on board, one night ferry from Palermo to Genoa and guided tours of Paestum, Taormina, Catania, Palermo and Genoa. All this was concentrated into a short but intensive programme of 5 days. Thanks to this, the participants were able to admire the beautiful landscapes with breathtaking sections: starting from the southern Apennines to the Calabrian coast with its iridescent colours and then reaching the Peloritani mountains at the Cape of Taormina. A jump back in time where they visited the ageless city of Palermo, then passing northwards through the Tyrrhenian sea reaching the Liguria gulf with the large city of Genoa. The very last stage on Lake Maggiore successfully completed the journey, delighting the guests with a special lunch prepared with typical products.
