  • 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.

  • Überseehafen Rostock: East Germany’S Window to the World Under Stasi Watch, 1961-1989
    Tomasz Blusiewicz Überseehafen Rostock: East Germany’s Window to the World under Stasi Watch, 1961-1989 Draft: Please do not cite Dear colleagues, Thank you for your interest in my dissertation chapter. Please see my dissertation outline to get a sense of how it is going to fit within the larger project, which also includes Poland and the Soviet Union, if you're curious. This is of course early work in progress. I apologize in advance for the chapter's messy character, sloppy editing, typos, errors, provisional footnotes, etc,. Still, I hope I've managed to reanimate my prose to an edible condition. I am looking forward to hearing your thoughts. Tomasz I. Introduction Alexander Schalck-Golodkowski, a Stasi Oberst in besonderen Einsatz , a colonel in special capacity, passed away on June 21, 2015. He was 83 years old. Schalck -- as he was usually called by his subordinates -- spent most of the last quarter-century in an insulated Bavarian mountain retreat, his career being all over three weeks after the fall of the Wall. But his death did not pass unnoticed. All major German evening TV news services marked his death, most with a few minutes of extended commentary. The most popular one, Tagesschau , painted a picture of his life in colors appropriately dark for one of the most influential and enigmatic figures of the Honecker regime. True, Mielke or Honecker usually had the last word, yet Schalck's aura of power appears unparalleled precisely because the strings he pulled remained almost always behind the scenes. "One never saw his face at the time.

  • Tell Es‐Sultan/Ancient Jericho in the Early Bronze Age Iv: a Summary
    ROSAPAT 13 135 TELL ES‐SULTAN/ANCIENT JERICHO IN THE EARLY BRONZE AGE IV: A SUMMARY Daria Montanari* The attempt of this paper is to re-examine Early Bronze IV attestations recorded by the four expeditions1 that operated at Tell es-Sultan over more than one century, and to outline some general features in the light of recent discoveries made by Sapienza-MOTA-DACH Joint Expedition2. Keywords: Jericho; Early Bronze IV; scattered occupation; village; necropolis 1. FRAME OF THE EARLY BRONZE IV IN SOUTHERN LEVANT During the Early Bronze IV3 the Southern Levant was generally characterized by villages and settlements dispersed in marginal areas, with seasonal occupation and sedentary nearby perennial streams, according to pastoral-nomad economy and domestic production, with gradual sedentarization throughout the end of the period4. This rural society5 had a tribal structure that can be reconstructed also thanks to numerous shaft-tomb cemeteries and distinguished mortuary practices6, as it is in the case of Jericho. 2. TELL ES-SULTAN/ANCIENT JERICHO: THE SITE IN THE EARLY BRONZE IV First attestation of Early Bronze IV on the mound was recognized by Ernst Sellin and Carl Watzinger, in facts Captain Warren7 in his previous soundings (1868) had unwittingly discovered in the southern side of the mound just a few sherds dating back from the final phase of the Early Bronze Age, but they were identified only later by Kathleen Kenyon8. * Sapienza University of Rome, Department of Oriental Studies. 1 Sellin - Watzinger 1908; 1913; Garstang 1930; 1931; 1932a; 1932b; 1932c; 1933; 1934; 1935a; 1935b; Garstang - Ben-Dor - Fitzgerald 1936; Kenyon 1954; 1955; 1957; 1960; 1965; 1981; Kenyon - Holland 1982; 1983; Marchetti - Nigro 1998; 2000; Marchetti et al.
