An important part of this change is the launch of Les Carnets de l’ACoSt, the new online journal of the Association, whose first issue I am pleased to introduce in my capacity as Editor-in-Chief chosen by the ACoSt Governance. The new periodical is meant both to replace and continue the Newsletter. As its predecessor, Les Carnets de l’ACoSt will be published on a biannual basis with a summer and winter issue. Les Carnets still invite short contributions on ongoing research, new books, recent conferences, etc., but also encourage the submission of longer scholarly articles dealing with all aspects of coroplastic production and iconography (for details, see Call for Submission). To ensure a high scientific quality, the latter submissions will be subject to a thorough peer-review process. Predictably, most of the submissions will be concerned with coroplastic products from the Mediterranean area, Egypt and the Ancient Near East, but I would like to emphasize that articles and communications dealing with material from beyond this geographical realm are also very welcome. Les Carnets de l’ACoSt will be permanently hosted by the French open access portal http://acost.revues.org. This not only allows for a wider outreach, but also enables a more reliable citation of the journal’s contents. My hope is that Les Carnet, as the first periodical entirely dedicated to coroplastic research, will stimulate the scientific debate in this fascinating field of study. 3 With best wishes. 4 Oliver Pilz Les Carnets de l’ACoSt, 13 | 2015 4 INDEX Keywords: journal, coroplastic, production, iconography AUTHOR OLIVER PILZ Johannes Gutenbert-Universität Mainz, Insitut für Klassische Archäologie [email protected] Les Carnets de l’ACoSt, 13 | 2015 5 Coroplastic Studies and the History of Religion: Figurines in Yehud and the Interdisciplinary Nature of the Study of Terracottas Izaak J. de Hulster 1 Readers of this new journal are familiar with coroplastic studies and most of them will have a sense of religious studies, as — in the core areas and periods covered by this journal — figurines are usually assumed to have a religious meaning. The presence of figurines in the archaeological record leads to various kinds of research in coroplastic studies and cognate fields of study (focused on a variety of, e.g., technical and social aspects). The project that I am introducing with this carnet note is based on the questioned presence of figurines in the Achaemenid province of Yehud, known as ‘Judah’ in reference to earlier periods, the area around Jerusalem. The figurine report of Shiloh’s excavations in Jerusalem’s ‘City of David’1 attributed all the figurine finds, except for a few earlier ones,2 independent of their stratigraphic contexts, to Iron Age II. This practice concurs with the tendency to abnegate figurines in Achaemenid Jerusalem and its surroundings.3 As such, I have introduced a rather archaeological debate but not one that is lacking historical, and in particular religious historical, consequences; various areas of interest within the interdisciplinary field of coroplastic studies shed light on these issues. Therefore, with this contribution to Les Carnets de l’ACoSt I also hope to stimulate thoughts about the interdisciplinary nature of coroplastic studies. 2 The Achaemenid period is usually regarded as the turning point (period) towards a religiously-fueled, programmatic aniconism in Yehud. Although Yehud may not provide an avalanche of pictorial sources, there were indeed images in Yehud. Centered on the iconography of Yehud, one part of my present project addresses, contrary to the present scholarly consensus, the presence of figurines similar to those figurines in Figure 1 in Jerusalem and its surroundings. Given the religious interpretation of figurines, the issue of either presence or absence is one of historical religious Les Carnets de l’ACoSt, 13 | 2015 6 importance, and through the reception of the Hebrew Bible, not only for this period, but also for the history of Judaism and Christianity. Fig. 1. Figurine compilation : bird pillar figurine ; lamp, Judean Pillar Figurine, bed model ; horse- and-rider. Source : combination of three figures from Keel and Uehlinger 2012 : respectively figures 320, 329, and 333b. 3 I have argued the case that despite the common assumption of an absence of figurines in the province Yehud, archaeological evidence supports the probability of the use of terracotta figurines even in Achaemenid period Jerusalem, the center of Yehud.4 Usually, it is assumed that such figurines were only used in Judah under the Assyrian hegemony. Since most scholars associate figurines with religious functions, they conclude that an absence of figurines in Yehud indicates the establishment of monotheism. My results thus far, however, have demonstrated that such a theory is, in fact, a ‘myth of the reborn nation.’5 This research, therefore, warns against viewing an ancient society as monolithic and shows the need to distinguish groups within a society and thus focuses on groups of actors, including possible minorities. Nevertheless, more detailed analysis is needed. In particular, besides specific contextual elements (whether demographical, technical, cultural, etc.), it would be important to know more about the “rise and decline” of certain figurine types and figurines in general. 4 Interestingly, even one of the most outspoken advocates of the absence of figurines in Yehud, Ephraim Stern, has excavated two figurines in the Achaemenid stratum at En Gedi (part of Yehud).6 Stern interprets these figurines as objects of transcultural exchange, commenting: “These two figurines presumably belonged to a non-Jew since pagan figurines were not ordinarily found at Persian period sites in the territories of Judah and Samaria”.7 Such a case needs to be scrutinized within a broader context of transcultural exchange of objects, groups of objects, and their material characteristics, typologies, iconographies, etc. and investigated for the change it might indicate, especially if Stern’s ‘migrant actor’ is to

  • Medicinal Vessels from Tell Atrib (Egypt)
    Études et Travaux XXX (2017), 315–337 Medicinal Vessels from Tell Atrib (Egypt) A Ł, A P Abstract: This article off ers publication of seventeen miniature vessels discovered in Hellenistic strata of Athribis (modern Tell Atrib) during excavations carried out by Polish- -Egyptian Mission in the 1980s/1990s. The vessels, made of clay, faience and bronze, are mostly imports from various areas within the Mediterranean, including Sicily and Lycia, and more rarely – local imitations of imported forms. Two vessels carry stamps with Greek inscriptions, indicating that they were containers for lykion, a medicine extracted from the plant of the same name, highly esteemed in antiquity. The vessels may be connected with a healing activity practised within the Hellenistic bath complex. Keywords: Tell Atrib, Hellenistic Egypt, pottery, medicinal vessels, lykion, healing activity Adam Łajtar, Institute of Archaeology, University of Warsaw, Warszawa; [email protected] Anna Południkiewicz, Polish Centre of Mediterranean Archaeology, University of Warsaw, Warszawa; [email protected] Archaeological excavations carried out between 1985 and 1999 by a Polish-Egyptian Mission within the Hellenistic and Roman dwelling districts and industrial quarters of ancient Athribis (modern Tell Atrib), the capital of the tenth Lower Egyptian nome,1 yielded an interesting series of miniature vessels made of clay, faience and bronze.2 Identical or similar vessels are known from numerous sites within the Mediterranean and are considered as containers for medicines in a liquid form. A particularly rich collection of such vessels, amounting to 54 objects, was discovered in the 1950s, during work carried out by an American archaeological expedition in Morgantina 1 For a preliminary presentation of the results, see reports published in journal Polish Archaeology in the Mediterranean (vols I–VII, by K.

  • A Comparative Study of Ancient Greek City Walls in North-Western Black Sea During the Classical and Hellenistic Times
    INTERNATIONAL HELLENIC UNIVERSITY SCHOOL OF HUMANITIES MA IN BLACK SEA CULTURAL STUDIES A comparative study of ancient Greek city walls in North-Western Black Sea during the Classical and Hellenistic times Thessaloniki, 2011 Supervisor’s name: Professor Akamatis Ioannis Student’s name: Fantsoudi Fotini Id number:2201100018 Abstract Greek presence in the North Western Black Sea Coast is a fact proven by literary texts, epigraphical data and extensive archaeological remains. The latter in particular are the most indicative for the presence of walls in the area and through their craftsmanship and techniques being used one can closely relate these defensive structures to the walls in Asia Minor and the Greek mainland. The area examined in this paper, lies from ancient Apollonia Pontica on the Bulgarian coast and clockwise to Kerch Peninsula.When establishing in these places, Greeks created emporeia which later on turned into powerful city states. However, in the early years of colonization no walls existed as Greeks were starting from zero and the construction of walls needed large funds. This seems to be one of the reasons for the absence of walls of the Archaic period to which lack comprehensive fieldwork must be added. This is also the reason why the Archaic period is not examined, but rather the Classical and Hellenistic until the Roman conquest. The aim of Greeks when situating the Black Sea was to permanently relocate and to become autonomous from their mother cities. In order to be so, colonizers had to create cities similar to their motherlands. More specifically, they had to build public buildings, among which walls in order to prevent themselves from the indigenous tribes lurking to chase away the strangers from their land.

Da tali ricostruzioni però, ad affermare principi ovvero ad evidenziare profili aventi diretti riflessi storici sul territorio o sulla società, credo passi molto, specialmente se non vi sono supporti derivanti dall‟applicazione di scienze ulteriori e diverse. La toponomastica antica quindi, come parte dell‟etimologia, può trovare fondamento soltanto se non viene enunciata in astratto, bensì poggi su elementi e dati riscontrabili sul territorio derivanti dallo studio comparato di altre discipline tra cui la geografia, la storia e l‟archeologia.

  • The Chora of Nymphaion (6Th Century BC-6Th Century
    The Chora of Nymphaion (6th century BC-6th century AD) Viktor N. Zin’ko The exploration of the rural areas of the European Bosporos has gained in scope over the last decades. Earlier scholars focused on studying particular archaeological sites and an overall reconstruction of the rural territories of the Bosporan poleis as well as on a general understanding of the polis-chora relationship.1 These works did not aim at an in-depth study of the chora of any one particular city-state limited as they were to small-scale excavations of individual settlements. In 1989, the author launched a comprehensive research project on the chora of Nymphaion. A careful examination of archive materials and the results of the surveys revealed an extensive number of previously unknown archaeological sites. The limits of Nymphaion’s rural territory corresponded to natural bor- der-lines (gullies, steep slopes of ridges etc.) impassable to the Barbarian cav- alry. The region has better soils than the rest of the peninsula, namely dark chestnut černozems,2 and the average level of precipitation is 100 mm higher than in other areas.3 The core of the territory was represented by fertile lands, Fig. 1.
