Dipasquale 1, *, L. Montoni1, A. Manzi 1, S. Mecca 1 1 Department of Architecture, DAR|MED Lab, University of Florence, Italy - (letizia.dipasquale, saverio.mecca) @unifi.it, (luciamontoni, alessadra.manzi)@gmail.com Commission II - WG II/8 KEY WORDS: Heritage Impact Assessment, Heritage management, Conservation, Mediterranean architecture, Risk management. ABSTRACT The Historic Center (Chorá) of Patmos, located in one of the Dodecanese Islands of Greece, was inscribed in the World Heritage List in 1999. The morphological feature, the housing typologies and the building techniques that characterize the Chorá provide an authentic and astonishing expression of the stylistic and typological models of the vernacular architecture of the Greek islands. This paper presents part of the research carried out on the Chorá of Patmos, within the 3D Past project, funded by the European Creative Europe program. The first part illustrates the results of the research concerning the analysis of the material components of the architectural heritage of Patmos: the urban structure, the evolution of the main architectural typologies, the feature of the main building systems. The second part of the paper presents the application of the Heritage Impact Assessment (HIA), a tool for the management of site transformations and in particular for identifying, forecasting and evaluating the impact of potential development on the Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) of the properties.

  • Urban Planning in the Greek Colonies in Sicily and Magna Graecia
    Urban Planning in the Greek Colonies in Sicily and Magna Graecia (8th – 6th centuries BCE) An honors thesis for the Department of Classics Olivia E. Hayden Tufts University, 2013 Abstract: Although ancient Greeks were traversing the western Mediterranean as early as the Mycenaean Period, the end of the “Dark Age” saw a surge of Greek colonial activity throughout the Mediterranean. Contemporary cities of the Greek homeland were in the process of growing from small, irregularly planned settlements into organized urban spaces. By contrast, the colonies founded overseas in the 8th and 6th centuries BCE lacked any pre-existing structures or spatial organization, allowing the inhabitants to closely approximate their conceptual ideals. For this reason the Greek colonies in Sicily and Magna Graecia, known for their extensive use of gridded urban planning, exemplified the overarching trajectory of urban planning in this period. Over the course of the 8th to 6th centuries BCE the Greek cities in Sicily and Magna Graecia developed many common features, including the zoning of domestic, religious, and political space and the implementation of a gridded street plan in the domestic sector. Each city, however, had its own peculiarities and experimental design elements. I will argue that the interplay between standardization and idiosyncrasy in each city developed as a result of vying for recognition within this tight-knit network of affluent Sicilian and South Italian cities. This competition both stimulated the widespread adoption of popular ideas and encouraged the continuous initiation of new trends. ii Table of Contents: Abstract. …………………….………………………………………………………………….... ii Table of Contents …………………………………….………………………………….…….... iii 1.

  • Bringing the Empire Home: Italian Fascism's Mediterranean Tour Of
    Bringing the Empire Home: Italian Fascism’s Mediterranean Tour of Rhodes Valerie McGuire In 1926, the acting administrative governor of the Italian Aegean islands crossed the threshold of a newly restored castle of Rhodes. A photograph of Mario Lago dressed in the garb of a medieval knight appeared on the cover of the March issue of the popular culture magazine L’illustrazione italiana.1 A local reporter for the Italian administration described the event as a “superb re-evocation of other times.”2 However, the governor’s masquerade as a Christian knight was clearly not meant to invoke the island’s past so much as its future, as a celebrated destination within the Italian overseas empire. Since the Italian capture of Rhodes during the 1911–12 war for Libya, the local administration had invested heavily into restoration projects on the island. Rhodes was not only a famous location from antiquity but was also a storied location of the medieval Mediterranean, when the Knights of St. John had occupied the island for two hundred years while attempting to re-conquer Jerusalem during the fourth crusade. The Italian state’s goals were twofold. On the one hand, it maintained that establishing a popular destination for resort tourism and well-to-do Italian and European travelers could help to offset the financial costs of the colonial project to “regenerate” the entire Aegean archipelago.3 On the other hand— and more importantly—by reconstructing and celebrating the island’s distant Mediterranean past, the Italian state imagined that its own history of diaspora, exploration, and maritime expansion in the Mediterranean could become the premise for a new empire in the East.

It is considered to be a Cretan-Venetian creation from the early fifteenth century. This article discusses the accounts of what has been written on this topic, and endeavors to bring field-changing evidence about its stylistic and iconographic aspects, the date, the artists who created it, the place it originally came from, and the person who had the idea of mounting an altarpiece. To do so, a comparative study on Byzantine and early-Renaissance painting is carried out, along with more attention paid to the history of Santo Stefano castle. As a result, it appears that the artist of the central panel comes from the Mystras painting school between 1360 and 1380, the author of the other six panels is Lorenzo Veneziano around 1360, and the altarpiece was not a single commission, but the mounting of panels coming from separate artworks. The officer Frà Domenico d’Alemagna, commander of Santo Stefano castle, had the idea of mounting different paintings into a seven-panel altarpiece between 1390 and 1410. The aim is to shed more light on a piece of art which stands as a witness from the twilight of the Middle Ages and the dawn of Renaissance; as a messenger from the Catholic and Orthodox pictorial traditions and collaboration; finally as a fosterer of the triple Byzantine, Gothic, Renaissance expression.

  • The Christian Remains of the Seven Churches of the Apocalypse
    1974, 3) THE BIBLICAL ARCHAEOLOGIST 69 The Christian Remains of the Seven Churches of the Apocalypse OTTO F. A. MEINARDU S Athens, Greece Some months ago, I revisited the island of Patmos and the sites of the seven churches to which letters are addressed in the second and third chap- ters of the book of Revelation. What follows is a report on such Christian remains as have survived and an indication of the various traditions which have grown up at the eight locations, where, as at so many other places in the Orthodox and Latin world, piety has sought tangible localization. I set out from Piraeus and sailed to the island of Patmos, off the Turkish coast, which had gained its significance because of the enforced exile of God's servant John (Rev. 1:1, 9) and from the acceptance of the Revelation in the NT canon. From the tiny port of Skala, financial and tourist center of Patmos, the road ascends to the 11th century Greek Orthodox monastery of St. John the Theologian. Half way to this mighty fortress monastery, I stopped at the Monastery of the Apocalypse, which enshrines the "Grotto of the Revelation." Throughout the centuries pilgrims have come to this site to receive blessings. When Pitton de Tournefort visited Patmos in 1702, the grotto was a poor hermitage administered by the bishop of Samos. The abbot presented de Tournefort with pieces of rock from the grotto, assuring him that they could expel evil spirits and cure diseases. Nowadays, hundreds of western tourists visit the grotto daily, especially during the summer, and are shown those traditional features which are related in one way or another with the vision of John.

  • Chronological Constraints of Pyroclastic Deposits on Anafi Island
    15th International Congress of the Geological Society of Greece Athens, 22-24 May, 2019 | Harokopio University of Athens, Greece Bulletin of the Geological Society of Greece, Sp. Pub. 7 Ext. Abs. GSG2019-160 Chronological constraints of pyroclastic deposits on Anafi Island, (Cyclades, Greece): Are they Minoan? Katerina Theodorakopoulou1, Konstantinos Kyriakopoulos1, Kostas Stamoulis2, Magali Rizza3, Roberto Sulpizio4, M. Cihat Alçiçek4, Constantin D. Athanassas6 1 Department of Geology and Geoenvironment, National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, Greece, [email protected] 2 University of Ioannina-Archaeometry Center, Greece 3 Centre Européen de Recherche et d’Enseignement des Géosciences de l’Environnement, Aix-en-Provence, France 4 Department of Earth and Geo-environmental Sciences, University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy, 5 Department of Geology, Pamukkale University, Denizli, Turkey 6 Department of Geological Sciences, School of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering, National Technical University of Athens, Greece This study attempts to clarify whether formerly-documented pyroclastic deposits (Keller et al. 2014, McCoy and Dunn, 2002) belong to the Minoan eruption of Santorini or an earlier event. The ‘Minoan’ eruption, occurred in the 17th century BCE (1627–1600 BCE, Friedrich et al., 2006) and had widespread impacts on the civilization of the Aegean an Eastern Mediterranean (Marinatos, 1939). Anafi Island could be a key site for the dispersal of Minoan tephra as it is the most nearby island of Santorini. Despite its proximity, only a few spots with pyroclastic deposits have been found on the island (Keller et al. 2014, McCoy and Dunn, 2002). The occurrence of tephra layers of the Minoan eruption on Rhodes, Kos and western Turkey (Keller, 1980; Eastwood et al., 1999), suggests that Anafi must have covered by Minoan tephra, which was probably eroded and swept away afterwards (Keller et al., 2014).
