January 2018 Thessaloniki - Greece Abstract This dissertation was written as part of the MA in Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean Studies at the International Hellenic University. The aim of this dissertation is to collect as much information as possible on agricultural practices in Macedonia from prehistory to Roman times and examine them within their social and cultural context. Chapter 1 will offer a general introduction to the aims and methodology of this thesis. This chapter will also provide information on the geography, climate and natural resources of ancient Macedonia from prehistoric times. We will them continue with a concise social and cultural history of Macedonia from prehistory to the Roman conquest. This is important in order to achieve a good understanding of all these social and cultural processes that are directly or indirectly related with the exploitation of land and agriculture in Macedonia through time. In chapter 2, we are going to look briefly into the origins of agriculture in Macedonia and then explore the most important types of agricultural products (i.e.

Interdisciplinary approach to implement digital techniques for 3D modelling, including 3D terrestrial laser scanning and image-based modelling. Implementation of virtual anastylosis by archaeologists using the 3D models and suitable software. Abstract: Archaeological restoration of monuments is a practice requiring extreme caution and thorough study. Proceeding to restoration or to reconstruction actions without detailed consultation and thought is normally avoided by archaeologists and conservation experts. Nowadays, anastylosis executed on the real object is generally prohibited. Contemporary technologies have provided archaeologists and other conservation experts with the tools to embark on virtual restorations or anastyloses, thus testing various alternatives without physical intervention on the monument itself. In this way, the values of the monuments are respected according to international conventions. In this paper, two examples of virtual archaeological anastyloses of two important Macedonian tombs in northern Greece are presented.

  • In the Kingdom of Alexander the Great Ancient Macedonia
    Advance press kit Exhibition From October 13, 2011 to January 16, 2012 Napoleon Hall In the Kingdom of Alexander the Great Ancient Macedonia Contents Press release page 3 Map of main sites page 9 Exhibition walk-through page 10 Images available for the press page 12 Press release In the Kingdom of Alexander the Great Exhibition Ancient Macedonia October 13, 2011–January 16, 2012 Napoleon Hall This exhibition curated by a Greek and French team of specialists brings together five hundred works tracing the history of ancient Macedonia from the fifteenth century B.C. up to the Roman Empire. Visitors are invited to explore the rich artistic heritage of northern Greece, many of whose treasures are still little known to the general public, due to the relatively recent nature of archaeological discoveries in this area. It was not until 1977, when several royal sepulchral monuments were unearthed at Vergina, among them the unopened tomb of Philip II, Alexander the Great’s father, that the full archaeological potential of this region was realized. Further excavations at this prestigious site, now identified with Aegae, the first capital of ancient Macedonia, resulted in a number of other important discoveries, including a puzzling burial site revealed in 2008, which will in all likelihood entail revisions in our knowledge of ancient history. With shrewd political skill, ancient Macedonia’s rulers, of whom Alexander the Great remains the best known, orchestrated the rise of Macedon from a small kingdom into one which came to dominate the entire Hellenic world, before defeating the Persian Empire and conquering lands as far away as India.

  • Greece Footsteps of Apostle Paul
    GREECE FOOTSTEPS OF APOSTLE PAUL With Women of the Midwest! W! ! & M)%& September 14-23, 2022 Travel Solo Together CO | IA | KS | MN | MO | NE Dear Women of the Midwest, Hi, I’m Lora Black, the Ambassador for our journey to Greece and our tour of the beginnings of Christianity. We will start on the path, in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul, when we land in Thessaloniki- Greece’s second largest city. Our small group of 20 is joined upon arrival, with our private guide for this marvelous 10-day adventure. We will wander amongst the ruins of the Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman empires, as we travel the roads where Paul, Silas, Lydia and countless other names we know from the Bible, had traversed. Our footsteps lead us to many of the UNESCO World Heritage sites; Delphi, the Oracle, and Apollo’s Sanctuary, one of the 7 Wonders of the Ancient Greek World. We travel ‘up’ to the rock monastery at Meteora, where you’ll have spectacular views. We eventually arrive in Athens, where the first thing you will see is the Acropolis and the marble Parthenon-sparkling under the Greek sun. We will get to see the daily changing of the guards in front of the Presidential Palace and Tomb of the unknown soldier, the Panathenaic Stadium where the first Olympics of the modern era were held and more, in Greece’s capital city. Our final destination from Paul’s travels is the Ancient city of Corinth, once a bustling Roman trading city between the Ionian and Aegean Seas.

  • Theorodokoi, Asylia, and the Macedonian Cities
    Theorodokoi, Asylia, and the Macedonian Cities Ben Raynor n influential picture of the ancient Macedonian king- dom in twentieth-century scholarship was of a polity A somehow inimical to the presence or development of the polis as a political or social formation. Macedonia had urban communities, but it was argued that they possessed no genuine civic life.1 An increasing body of epigraphic evidence has overturned such a picture. Civic decrees, laws, and dedica- tions now leave us in no doubt that, from at least the mid- fourth century B.C., the Macedonian kingdom was a land of genuine poleis. Cities throughout Macedonia possessed civic institutions recognisable from elsewhere in the Aegean world (magistrates, councils, etc.) which structured meaningful local political life.2 Much recent work on Macedonia has focused on 1 For a clear summary see M. B. Hatzopoulos, “L’état Macédonien an- tique: un nouveau visage,” CRAI (1997) 7–25, at 11–12. Macedonia as hostile to the polis: A. Heuss, Stadt und Herrscher des Hellenismus (Leipzig 1937) 279–280; F. Schachermeyer, Alexander der Grosse: Ingenium und Macht (Graz/ Vienna 1949) 29; H. Bengtson, Philipp und Alexander der Grosse (Munich 1985) 121. 2 The epigraphic evidence to date was compiled in M. B.
