Rationalising Sexual Morality in Western Christian Discourses, AD 390 – AD 520
Deviance and Disaster: Rationalising sexual morality in Western Christian discourses, AD 390 – AD 520 Ulriika Vihervalli School of History, Archaeology and Religion Cardiff University Presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy April 2017 Abstract This thesis argues that the transition from traditional Roman ideas of sexual behaviour to idealised Christian sexual behaviour was a reactionary process, for which the period from AD 390 to AD 520 offers a crucial key stage. During this era, the Roman West underwent significant socio-political changes, resulting in warfare and violent conflict, which created a pressurised and traumatic environment for people who endured them. In this context, the rhetoric of divine punishment for sinful behaviour was stron gly linked with sexual acts, causing ideas on sexual mores to develop. The thesis highlights three key aspects of these developments. Firstly, warfare necessitated changes in Christian doctrines on marriages and rape, resulting from collective and cultural trauma. Secondly, sexually impure acts of incest and prostitution were defiling to the religious collective yet the consequences of these were negotiated on a case-to-case basis, reflecting adaptation. Thirdly, traditional Roman ideas of polygyny and homosexual acts overrode Christian ideas on the same. After discussing these three aspects, this work offers a revised interpretation of Salvian of Marseilles’s De gubernatione Dei to illuminate the purpose of the sexual polemic contained in his work – a task that no existing scholarship has attempted to undertake. Daily realities and conflicts drove discourses on sexual mores forwards, and this thesis outlines how this occurred in practice, arguing that attitudes to sex were deeply rooted in secular contexts and were reactionary in nature. -

The Syrian Influence Over the Late Antique Mosaics in Philippopolis, Thrace Ivo Topalilov
The Syrian influence over the Late Antique mosaics in Philippopolis, Thrace Ivo Topalilov UDC: 738.5(569.1:497.234)"02/05" I. Topalilov Original scientific paper The University of Shumen Manuscript received: 25. 11. 2015. Department of History and Archaeology Revised manuscript accepted: 20. 03. 2016. 115 Universitetska Str DOI: 10.1484/J.HAM.5.111336 Shumen, 9712 Bulgaria e paper deals with mosaic pavements from Philippopolis, the capital of the Late antique province of race, which are supposed to be made after Syrian inuence or by masters from that region. ree main types of examples are studied: 1). variations of standard geometric schemes which are repeated; 2). variations of motifs which are close parallels and 3). repetition of similar gural images. e examples come either from Early Christian buildings or richly decorated private dwellings. Despite the similarities between the mosaics of Philippopolis and those in Syria, some discrepancies also appear. It seems that the ‘Syrian’ inuence was transmitted indirectly via the metropolitan masters, i. e. those from Constantinople, by following the decoration of a building in the provincial capital or home city or by immigrants and realized by the local masters. e metropolitan inuence in race, however, was enormous and spread in two ways: by simply copying the decoration of what was in the metropolis by the local patrons and the elite in race and second one – through special imperial policy. And this is clearly visible in the second half of 4th c. at the earliest, but mostly after the decision of eodosius I to settle in Constantinople when all of a sudden, race from a remote province became part of the hinterland of the metropolis. -

Its ancient name Serdica derives from the local Celtictribe of the Serdi who established the town in the 5th century BC. It remained a relatively small settlement until 1879, when it was declared the capital of Bulgaria.

Byzantine Town Planning – Does It Exist? (With Plates 8–21)
57 H ANS B UC H WALD Byzantine Town Planning – Does it Exist? (with plates 8–21) For Eduard Sekler There are many equally valid, parallel approaches to the study of Byzantine cities. My approach is that of a practicing town planner and an architectural historian. Town planning today is concerned with physical properties of cities such as their topography, circulation patterns, pedestrian spaces, buildings, and urban accents; however, town planning is, and probably always was, equally concerned with urban functions, with the creation of new urban forms, with urban meanings, and with adjustments, in the course of time, to new requirements. As in all town planning, the results of the present investigation need to be complemented by those of other disciplines, for instance, (in this case) historians, economists, sociologists, and archaeologists. Hundreds of cities that existed in the Byzantine region are known by name, and at times by their ar- chaeological or contemporary remains. Generally, two distinct phases in the history of these Byzantine cities have been determined: the earlier period, which begins with the era of Constantine and, depending upon local circumstances, ends between the 5th and the 8th century, and the later period, which ends with the end of Byzantine occupation at each site. The possibility of continuity between the two phases remains an open, much discussed question, and some observations concerning one phase may also be relevant to the other. For summaries, for instance, D. CLAUDE, Die byzantinische Stadt im 6. Jahrhundert. Munich 969, –; A. H. M. JONES, The Greek City from Alexander to Justinian. Oxford 939, 85–94. -

T Was in the Year 1887 That Mr. Arthur J
THE RICHBOROUGH COIN INSCRIBED "DOMINO CENSAURIO CES." BY ALFRED ANSCOMBE, F.R.HIST.S. THE SO-CALLED " COIN OF A SECOND CARAUSIUS, CAESAR IN BRITAIN IN THE FIFTH CENTURY." T was in the year 1887 that Mr. Arthur J. Evans, M.A. (now Sir Arthur), published1 a very learned and in- teresting paper on a bronze coin which was found at Richborough in Kent, on the site of the Roman fortress called Rutupiae, or Rutupium. The obverse of the coin presents a head modelled in a somewhat barbarous fashion on that of a fourth-century Emperor, diademed, and with the bust draped in the -paludamentum, or military robe of a Roman general. The reverse presents a familiar bronze type of Constans, or perhaps of Constantius II. For these and other well-considered reasons Sir Arthur Evans then assigned the coin to the first half of the fifth century, and quite correctly ; but he mistakenly ascribed it to A.D. 409. He also suggested that the CO/XTA of the inscription on the reverse should be identified with the Constantine who was ruling in Britain in that year. But this British Emperor who is known as Constantine the Third, and who had won imperial status in Britain, Gaul, and Spain in A.D. 407, had made his own son, Constans, Csesar in A.D. 408. Consequently Sir Arthur Evans's claim to have discovered another British Caesar, during the same reign, who was named Carausius but is otherwise quite unknown, must be regarded as inadmissible. Moreover, no historical testimony has ever been adduced in support of this assumption. -

A Short Presentation of the History of Bulgarian Lands
A Short Presentation of the History of Bulgarian lands (a bit longer version) A long time ago, in a peninsula far far away… The territory of modern Bulgarian state has been populated and traces of human habitation can be found as far back as the Upper Palaeolithic Period (around 40, 000 BC), as has been indicated by excavations of caves near Pleven (in the Danubian plain in northern Bulgaria) and in the Balkan Mountains. The land gave birth to many well‐known legendary and historical figures like Orpheus and Spartacus. It has been invaded, conquered and settled by Greeks, Scythians, Romans, Byzan‐ tines, Turks being at the crossroad of civilizations, all of whom left their indelible marks on the cultural landscape of today’s country and people. Bulgaria’s medieval ‘Golden Age’, when the Bulgarian Khans and Tsars ruled over one of the largest empires in Europe, was bright and well‐kept in nation’s memory. The local population called Thracians lived in parts of what is now Bulgaria. They were the first people to leave cultural heritage throughout the Balkan region. Their origin remains obscure. It is generally proposed that a proto‐Thracian people developed from a mixture of indigenous peoples and Indo‐Europeans from the time of Proto‐Indo‐European expansion in the Early Bronze Age (around 1500 BC). Thracian craftsmen inherited the skills of the indige‐ nous civilizations before them, especially in gold working. The social structure of Thracian tribes was not of centralized character, but they had an ad‐ vanced culture despite the lack of own their own proper script, and gathered powerful mili‐ tary forces when their divided tribes formed unions under the pressure of external threats. -
