Dissertation Advisor: Professor Michael McCormick Ryan Hayes Wilkinson The Last Horizons of Roman Gaul: Communication, Community, and Power at the End of Antiquity Abstract In the fifth and sixth centuries CE, the Roman Empire fragmented, along with its network of political, cultural, and socio-economic connections. How did that network’s collapse reshape the social and mental horizons of communities in one part of the Roman world, now eastern France? Did new political frontiers between barbarian kingdoms redirect those communities’ external connections, and if so, how? To address these questions, this dissertation focuses on the cities of two Gallo-Roman tribal groups.

The essential historical background and the key developments in the From history of wine through the ages are outlined in this compact, engag- ing, easy-to-read and well-illustrated text, with lists of top vintages. For thousands of years wine mixed with water was the safe drink. It was a key ingredient of medications. The antiseptic properties of the N e o l i t h i c T i m e s alcohol it contains saved lives. Wine was associated with many reli- gious rituals, some of which survive today. The story of wine involves scientists like Hippocrates of Kos, to Zaccharia Razi, Isaac Newton (albeit indirectly), Louis Pasteur, and many others. It also involves colorful people such as Gregory of Tours and Eleanor of Aquitaine. to t h e 2 1 s t C e n t u r y Vines made their way to the Americas with the Conquistadores. the 21st Century Then wines almost disappeared in the late 1800s as Phylloxera spread throughout the world. This scourge was followed by World War I, the Great Depression, Prohibition, and World War II. Today, winemaking has enjoyed a renaissance and many excellent and affordable wines are produced throughout the world. * Stefan K. Estreicher is Paul Whitfield Horn Professor of Physics at Texas Tech University.

  • PRODUCTIVE SPACE in LATE ANTIQUITY Toon Putzeys
    PRODUCTIVE SPACE IN LATE ANTIQUITY Toon Putzeys Introduction This section concentrates on evidence for space involved in the prepara- tion of raw materials and for large-scale manufacturing. Such activities normally took place in districts where raw materials were found, or in separate industrial quarters on the outskirts of the city. The products made in such facilities found their way to craft workers for further processing or, in the case of fi nished products, to merchants who sold them on to customers in local or regional markets. Centres of Production Pottery production centres Whilst little or no evidence exists for shops selling ceramic vessels, a large body of production sites for pottery is documented from all over the Mediterranean. People might have bought their ceramics directly from potters’ workshops or from stalls set up on temporary markets. The structural remains of pottery production centres such as kilns and rooms for the processing of the clay are in most cases well-preserved and clearly identifi able. Artefactual evidence for pottery production consists of (misfi red) pottery, kiln spacers and moulds, etc. Due to the large body of material, only a selection of pottery manufacturing cen- tres, with material relevant to Late Antiquity, are listed here.

Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Abstract This research focuses on the study of amphorae from Cyprus in order to reconstruct aspects of trade and the Roman economy in the eastern Mediterranean region, from the 2nd c. BC to the 7th c. AD. The amphorae, as the primary containers used in commercial activities, enable an insight into trading patterns and socio-economic processes. Trade was fundamental to the Roman empire for the accomplishment of the political strategy of economic exploitation of its territories. However, it is only fairly recently that research focused on the study of amphorae for the reconstruction of trade and the examination of the economy.
