The followingpaper was read by the author: ThteLONG WALL of SALONA and the RUINED CITIES of PIIARIA andi GELSA Di LESINA. By Captain R. F. BURTON, H.M. Consul at Trieste. [With Plates xii. and xiii. and woodcuts.] INTRODUCTION. ALLOWme to begin by expressing the great satisfactionwith whichI findmyself once morein this room,and permittedto offeryou the results of three years' work. The specimenson the table will show you the nature of that work, and, before proceedingto the papers announcedfor this evening,I may, perhaps,be allowed brieflyto introducethem to you. The two sketches (P1. xiii. figs.1 and 2) representthe only flintimplements as yet foundin Dalmatia; and I have added the requisitedetails. They were shown to me by my learned friend,Prof. Glavinicof Spalato. I would proposehim and Dr. Lanza di Casalanza as correspondingmembers of our Society; and I will answerfor their value. The skull and the accompanyingbones were found near Bolliunz, a valley about fivemiles south-eastof Trieste. Here the Romans cut an aqueductin the live rock-a troughwhich supplied Tergestewith the best water. I have no doubt that someof the caves whichnow appear naturalwere hand-worked formortuary purposes; and, though I will not answer for the skull being Roman, or, indeed,of any great antiquity,I think that it may be a relic of the ancientrace, and, as such,I have brought it home for the collection of our learned associate, Dr. J. Barnard Davis. The collectionof potteryand the models of stoneimplements are intended for the admirable collection of our President, Col. A. Lane Fox. They are gatheredfrom the Castellieriof Istria, concerningwhich I lately published a paper,with many regretsfor the mode in whichit was published,and a heartfelt resolutionnot to do it again. The potteryis submittedto the judgment of experts. To an amateurit appears of different epochs,but I can answerfor the fact of its being an authentic find-most of it was dug up in my presence. It occursin the black earth.

Salonawants but few words of introduction. She was in turn theRespublica Salonae (inscribed on leadentube of aqueduct); the Conventusand Coloniaof Pliny (iii. 22), and a hostof writers;the Roman metropolis of Dalmatia Felix, that fair and fertilesection of the land betweenthe Nestus or Tilurus (mod. Cettina)and the Naro (Narenta)rivers; a Proefectura et Pratura (FarlatiIllyria Sacra i. 27), with a Proepositus thesaurorum;a Procuratorginaeciorum; a Procuratorbaphi- orum(of thedyeing establishments); and a PraesesDalmatim (orFunctionarius perfectissimus). She was thegreat emporium of thecoast, the 6rtvetov, or naval arsenal(Strabo, vii. 5); and the "Totius DalmatimCaput" (Const.Porphyr. de Admin. Imperii, cap. xxx.) which, under Augustus,included a part of WesternPannonia. Virgil (Genethliacum,Ecl. iv.) sangthe birth of a " Saloninus,"and theglories of the paternal triumph:Horace (ii. 1) immortalisedthe honoursof lDalmatic or Delmatic victory. Here "Duke Bato" (A.D. 6, Dion Cassius,lib. lx., and Vell. Paterculus,lib. ii.) foughtfor libertyagainst the predatoryand oppressivemasters of the world; hereS. Domnius(S. Doimoor Dojmo)was sent, accord- ing to old tradition,by SaintPeter; and hereTitus, by order of SaintPaul (Tim.ii. 4-10) preachedthe gospel to Dalmatia. The remainsof what an Englishnovelist called the " smallbut prosperoustown of Salona" (?), thoughseldom visited, are, accordingto Prof.Steinbuchel, some of themost interesting of classicalruins. Finally, a highlyadvantageous position has made Spalato, its modern ournmtenens, the natural, whilst Zara is the artificialand politicalcapital, and the most flourishing, indeedthe onlyprogressive port of the old "iRegnodi Dal- mazia," whichstill formsthe southernmostprovince of the extendedAustrian empire. lButmy business at presentis witha singlesection of Salona, the" Long Wall," ofdoubtful and debatedorigin. The celebratedAbate Alberto Fortis (Viaggio in Dalmazia, e.c.2 vols.,Alvise Milocco, Venice, 1774, translated into English (London,J. Robson,1777), and French," Voyageen Dalmatie, Berne,chez la SocieteTypographique, 1778 "),' whotravelled in A.D. 1770-1772, and whosemeritorious labours have been a mine copiouslyquarried by laterwriters, has no notice of the "1iMurazzo,"or long,wall, althoughhe gives a detailed descriptionof theruins of Salona,in his vol ii. p. 42 (French translation,ii. sec.iii. p. 56). * I shallgive in thesepages references to textaud Frenchtranslation for facility of reference.

BURTON.-On the On the otherhand, the late Mr. Paton, so well known as a traveller,and a writerof travels,and mentionedwith respect by the late Abate Carrara,visited Salona in 1846-7, and de- scribes this most interestingfeature in the followingremarks (vol. i. 363, "Highlands and Islands of the Adriatic,"by A. A. Paton, 2 vols. London: Chapmanand Hall, 1849): "To the westward of Salona is a remnantof an immense construction,the origin and destinationof whichis quite un- knownto the local antiquaries-a Cyclopeanrwall,* of regular quadrilateralstones, each from8 to 16 feetin length. At first sight, I imagined that it must have been the foundationof a temple; but, as it extends580 paces in length,I soon saw the fallacyof that opinion." The generic term, " Cyclopean," is given to the blocks 6 to 12 feet long by 2 to 5 high, at Tiryns, in Argolis, by Pausanias (KvcXrarcov. 6'pyovii. 25-7); but he also applies it to the hewn polygons of Mykenme,and even to the squaredmasonry of the Gate of the Lions. Euripides-repeat- edly adapts the same expressionto the walls of MIykeneand of Argos. Lactantius (vid. Stat. Theb. i. 252) explains it thus: " Arces Cyclopumautem, aut quas Cyclopesfecerunt, aut magni ac miri operis; nam quicquid magnitudinesua nobile est, Cyclopummanu diciturfabricatum." Of coursethe picturesque termwas seized upon by the imitativeRoman poets: Seneca, to mentionno other,says: Quid moror? Majus mihi, Bellum Mycenisrestat, ut Cyclopea Eversa manibussaxa nostrisconcidant. (Herc. Fur. iv. 996.) The firststep would be to smooththe joints, as in the artistic walls of Cosa, and the outer surface,as at Rusellke,after which the whole stonewould be hewn firstto the pseudo-isodom,and, lastly,to the isodomicform. Petit-Radel and Dennis (ii. 284) hold the polygonal structuresto be Pelasgic, and the former declares (Mem. Inst. iii. pp. 55-66) that theyhave been found as far southas Lucania and Apulia. Mr. Hamilton (" Arche- ologia") complicatesthe use of the wordby applyingit to four several formsof masonry,noting as manydifferent epochs. In the first,the gigantic,irregular blocks are of varioussizes, with smaller interstitialstones, but whollywithout mortar (Tiryns and a portionof the MAaltese " Torride' Giganti,"unhewn masses of coralline). The second shows masonry without courses, irregularpolygons whose sides fit closely (Mykenae,EBrurian * The italicsin thispassage, and in the quotationsfrom Sir GardnerWilkinson and the Abate Carrara,are mine.

"Rectangular Cyclopean" sounds almost like an Irish bull. Perhaps we had better,with Dodwell (" Pelasgic Remains") and Sir William Gell (" Rome"), despiteBunsen (Ann. Inst., Rome, 1834), limit the term" Cyclopean" to masonrycomposed of irregularpolygons of large size, superimposedand fittedto- gether,more or less closely,with interstitial stones, but without mortaror cement.

  • An Ottoman Global Moment
    AN OTTOMAN GLOBAL MOMENT: WAR OF SECOND COALITION IN THE LEVANT A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In History By Kahraman Sakul, M.A Washington, DC November, 18, 2009 Copyright 2009 by Kahraman Sakul All Rights Reserved ii AN OTTOMAN GLOBAL MOMENT: WAR OF SECOND COALITION IN THE LEVANT Kahraman Sakul, M.A. Dissertation Advisor: Gabor Agoston, Ph.D. ABSTRACT This dissertation aims to place the Ottoman Empire within its proper context in the Napoleonic Age and calls for a recognition of the crucial role of the Sublime Porte in the War of Second Coalition (1798-1802). The Ottoman-Russian joint naval expedition (1798-1800) to the Ionian Islands under the French occupation provides the framework for an examination of the Ottoman willingness to join the European system of alliance in the Napoleonic age which brought the victory against France in the Levant in the War of Second Coalition (1798-1802). Collections of the Ottoman Archives and Topkapı Palace Archives in Istanbul as well as various chronicles and treatises in Turkish supply most of the primary sources for this dissertation. Appendices, charts and maps are provided to make the findings on the expedition, finance and logistics more readable. The body of the dissertation is divided into nine chapters discussing in order the global setting and domestic situation prior to the forming of the second coalition, the Adriatic expedition, its financial and logistical aspects with the ensuing socio-economic problems in the Morea, the Sublime Porte’s relations with its protectorate – The Republic of Seven United Islands, and finally the post-war diplomacy.

Afterwards, from 1896 to 1897, the sea level stations of Imperia, Livorno, Civitavecchia, Napoli (Arsenale e Mandracchio), Messina, Palermo, Catania, Ancona, Ravenna Porto Corsini, Cagliari, and La Maddalena started working. Than, in 1920 the stations of Reggio Calabria and Vieste started and, under the management of the National Marine Service, the Italian sea level stations begun to have the characteristics of a real network distributed on the territory. The regular tidal observations made in Venice are among the oldest and most reliable in Italy and in the Mediterranean in general. Systematic observations of sea level in Venice started in 1872 with the installation of the first tide gauge by the Military Geographic Institute and afterwards run by the Hydrographic Office of Venice.

Marinelli) “Ancona e mare” è il titolo di questo libro proposto dall’associazione “Reti culturali”. Chi ha una qualche frequentazione o conoscenza del capoluogo marchigiano potrebbe pensare ad un refuso, perché tale è l’integrazione e la simbiosi che unisce Ancona all’ambiente fisico e geografico che la circonda che si è portati a dire che Ancona è il mare e il mare è Ancona. Non è possibile pensare a questa città isolata dal contesto che ne ha determinato la nascita e la storia. Una posizione unica, un porto naturale come pochissimi altri lungo l’intero litorale adriatico hanno posto le basi di una comunità citta- dina che dipana la sua storia ininterrotta dal periodo greco ad oggi. Ancona repubblica marinara, libero Comune, luogo di traffici e di commerci, porto proteso verso l’altra sponda dell’Adriatico e verso l’Oriente, luogo d’incontro e di convivenza tra popoli e culture anche geograficamente lontani fra loro. Ancona è stata ed è ancora tutto questo. Una città operosa, ricca di arte e cultura, accogliente e aperta, come sono le città di mare, le quali sono portate a considerare il mare non un elemento ostile o una barriera, ma un ponte che attraversa sponde diverse e le unisce.
