La Cooperazione Degli Atenei Sardi Con I Paesi Del Maghreb: Motivazioni, Risultati, Prospettive Negli Studi Classici[1]

Premessa. – 2. Scavi e ricerche. – 3. Congressi ed incontri internazionali. – 4. Approfondimenti. – 5. Appendice. 1. – Premessa Il rapporto fra Sardegna ed Africa non può essere valutato solo in termini di contiguità geografica; come dimostrano le vicende storiche, esso affonda le sue radici nell’anima stessa dell’isola e del continente e costituisce un patrimonio comune, in parte registrato dalla tradizione mitografica[2]. Nato già con le migrazioni umane del tardo neolitico[3], forse grazie all’attività marinara dei Nuragici[4], sicuramente il rapporto si intensifica con la dominazione di Cartagine sulle coste dell’isola, con l’immigrazione di mercenari e coloni della Libya nelle pianure della Sardegna. Prosegue quindi durante la pax Romana, con i commerci fra le sponde del Mediterraneo, con l’unione dei negotiatiores e dei navicularii sardi e africani nella gestione dei traffici verso Ostia, con i frequenti scambi di persone, esperienze e conoscenze; si protrae con la fine dell’impero Romano, durante la dominazione dei Vandali e con l’impero bizantino[5]. Una cesura nei rapporti fra Africa e Sardegna si ebbe con la conquista araba del continente e con la parziale interruzione delle relazioni sul Mare Nostrum[6]: da -

EUROPE in the Year 300
The Euratlas Map of EUROPE in the Year 300 This map shows the countries of Europe, North Africa and Middle East, in the year 300. For consistency reasons, the boundaries and positions of the entities have been drawn as they were on the beginning of the year 300, so far as our knowledge goes. Each entity has a unique colour, but the shade differences are not always perceptible. Map in Latin with English transla- tion.

Lucan's Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek a Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulf
Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2014 Reading Committee: Catherine Connors, Chair Alain Gowing Stephen Hinds Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Classics © Copyright 2014 Laura Zientek University of Washington Abstract Lucan’s Natural Questions: Landscape and Geography in the Bellum Civile Laura Zientek Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Catherine Connors Department of Classics This dissertation is an analysis of the role of landscape and the natural world in Lucan’s Bellum Civile. I investigate digressions and excurses on mountains, rivers, and certain myths associated aetiologically with the land, and demonstrate how Stoic physics and cosmology – in particular the concepts of cosmic (dis)order, collapse, and conflagration – play a role in the way Lucan writes about the landscape in the context of a civil war poem. Building on previous analyses of the Bellum Civile that provide background on its literary context (Ahl, 1976), on Lucan’s poetic technique (Masters, 1992), and on landscape in Roman literature (Spencer, 2010), I approach Lucan’s depiction of the natural world by focusing on the mutual effect of humanity and landscape on each other. Thus, hardships posed by the land against characters like Caesar and Cato, gloomy and threatening atmospheres, and dangerous or unusual weather phenomena all have places in my study. I also explore how Lucan’s landscapes engage with the tropes of the locus amoenus or horridus (Schiesaro, 2006) and elements of the sublime (Day, 2013). -
Quelques Réflexions Sur Deux Ensembles De Latrines À Uthina*
Cartagine. Studi e Ricerche, 3 (2018) Sezione: Schede e materiali Rivista della Scuola Archeologica Italiana di Cartagine Articolo presentato il 10/04/2018 http://ojs.unica.it/index.php/caster/index Accettato in data 05/05/2018 issn 2532-1110; doi: 10.13125/caster/3276 Pubblicato in data 15/05/2018 CaSteR, 3 (2018) Quelques réflexions sur deux ensembles de latrines à Uthina* Samir Guizani Institut Supérieur des Sciences Humaines de Tunis, Université Tunis El Manar mail: [email protected] Introduction Dans l’étude publiée récemment sur les latrines privées en Tunisie à l’époque romaine1, l’attention a été attirée rapidement sur deux latrines appartenant à une somptueuse domus2 d’Uthina : nous avons ici l’intention de concentrer notre attention sur cet ensemble, en don- nant quelques résultats nouveaux. Outre leur état remarquablement conservé, elles sont les seules installations hygiéniques appartenant à la sphère privée qui ont été mises au jour à Uthina. Il s’agit de petites latrines à trois sièges qui sont situées à l’intérieur de la maison, dans le secteur de service et de latrines à niches pourvues de sept sièges, qui ne sont accessibles qu’à partir de la rue qui longe la façade de la maison. Si les premières ne présentent aucune ambiguïté, les secondes posent un problème. Bien qu’elles fassent partie du corps de la demeure, elles n’ont aucune communication ni avec celle-ci, ni avec les thermes privés des « Amours Pêcheurs » qui les jouxtent au nord-ouest. Les questions qui se posent sont donc les suivantes : ces latrines, ouvertes -
A Problem in Hispano-Latin Epigraphy
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Archivo Digital para la Docencia y la Investigación MAGISTRI OR MAGISTRATVS? A PROBLEM IN HISPANO-LATIN EPIGRAPHY ¿MAGISTRI O MAGISTRATVS? UN PROBLEMA EN LA EPIGRAFÍA HISPANo-latiNA Leonard A. Curchin University of Waterloo [email protected] DOI: 10.1387/veleia.14987 Abstract: The epigraphic abbreviation MAG, when referring to the secular leaders of gentes and unprivileged towns, has been inconsistently interpreted by various authors as mag(ister), mag(istratus) or mag(isterium). A study of the meaning and usage of the terms magistri and magistratus suggests that the officials of vici, pagi and castella were called magistri, while those of gentes and unprivileged towns (oppida, civitates) were known as magistratus. This finding provides reliable criteria for determining the meaning of MAG in particular cases. Keywords: castella, élites, magistrates, oppida, pagi, peregrine towns, vici. Resumen: La abreviatura epigráfica MAG, cuando se refiere a los líderes políticos de gen- tes y de comunidades no privilegiadas, ha sido interpretada de manera inconsecuente como mag(ister), mag(istratus) o mag(isterium) por varios autores. Un estudio del uso y de la signi- ficación de los términos magistri y magistratus concluye que los responsables de vici, pagi y castella se llamaban magistri, mientras que los dirigentes de gentes y de comunidades no pri- vilegiadas (oppida, civitates) se llamaban magistratus. Este resultado proporciona criterios fia- bles para establecer la significación de MAG en determinados casos. Palabras clave: castella, comunidades peregrinas, élites, magistrados, oppida, pagi, vici. Recibido: 08-02- 2015 Informado: 18-03-2015 Definitivo: 28-04-2015 Anyone who studies the Latin epigraphy of Hispania will be familiar with the problem of the ambiguous abbreviation MAG, which can mean either magister or magistratus1. -
Foreign Influences and Consequences on the Nuragic

Carlson Steven Oberhelman Head of Department, Donny L. Hamilton December 2009 Major Subject: Anthropology iii ABSTRACT Foreign Influences and Consequences on the Nuragic Culture of Sardinia. (December 2009) Margaret Choltco, B.A., The Pennsylvania State University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Shelley Wachsmann Although it is accepted that Phoenician colonization occurred on Sardinia by the 9th century B.C., it is possible that contact between Sardinia‟s indigenous population and the Levantine region occurred in the Late Bronze Age (LBA). Eastern LBA goods found on the island are copper oxhide ingots and Aegean pottery. Previously, it has been suggested that Mycenaeans were responsible for bringing the eastern goods to Sardinia, but the presence of Aegean pottery shards does not confirm the presence of Mycenaean tradesmen. Also, scholars of LBA trade have explained the paucity of evidence for a Mycenaean merchant fleet. Interpretations of two LBA shipwrecks, Cape Gelidonya and Uluburun, indicate that eastern Mediterranean merchants of Cypriot or Syro-Canaanite origin, transported large quantities of oxhide ingots from the Levant towards the west. -

The aim of this paper is to identify and characterize the most important building stones used in the construction of the Roman city of Lixus (Larache, Morocco) by means of petrographic and petrophysical techniques. Based on the visual analysis of the monuments, three major building stones (i.e. lithotypes) have been identified: i) Oligocene sandstones, ii) Quaternary sandstones and iii) Quaternary conglomerates. -
L‟Ensemble Du Travail, Comme Prévu Par Les Conditions D‟Appel D‟Offres, Devra Être Nécessairement Réalisé Dans Deux Phases Séparés Dans Le Temps
L‟ensemble du travail, comme prévu par les Conditions d‟Appel d‟Offres, devra être nécessairement réalisé dans deux phases séparés dans le temps. Encore mieux : la première phase (de la durée maximum de 60 jours) est propédeutique à la deuxième et devra être approuvée par le Maître d'ouvrage avant que les Bureaux d‟Etudes (ou les groupements) puissent commencer la deuxième phase (qui ne pourra pas dépasser les 90 jours), y compris les éventuels approfondissements demandés dans la phase de la réception finale. La méthodologie que nous proposons ici se développe à l‟intérieur de ces deux créneaux d‟après les Conditions de l‟Appel d‟Offres: par conséquence après la récolte de toutes les données et des études existantes sur Uthina, les consultants de notre équipe experts dans toutes les disciplines scientifiques nécessaires à ce travail évalueront avec soin tout le matériel disponible. Après, et seulement après, on pourra procéder, en toute connaissance de cause à l‟élaboration d‟une évaluation en ce qui concerne les potentialités du site et donc on pourra en remettre une évaluation exacte au Maître d'ouvrage. On rappelle qu‟au cours de la première phase on devra procéder avec : 1.1 la collecte et l‟analyse des données existantes ; 1.2. la présentation et l‟évaluation des potentialités de valorisation et d'exploitation. Après l‟approbation formelle, la deuxième phase devra procéder avec : 2.1. l‟élaboration et présentation d'au moins 2 scénarios d'aménagement et de valorisation du site, basés sur les spécificités et caractéristiques historiques, techniques, naturelles, urbaines et socio-économiques ; 2.2. -
Commodus-Hercules: the People’S Princeps
Commodus-Hercules: The People’s Princeps Olivier Hekster History has not been kind to Lucius Aurelius Commodus. Cassius Dio men tioned how ‘Commodus, taking a respite from his amusement and sports, turned to murder and was killing off the prominent men’, before describing the emperor as ‘superlatively mad’. The author of the fourth-century Histo ria Augusta continued the negative tradition, and summarised Commodus as being, from his earliest childhood onwards, ‘base and dishonourable, and cruel and lewd, and moreover defiled of mouth and debauched’.1 Gibbon was shocked to find that his perfect princeps, Marcus Aurelius, had left his throne to such a debased creature and commented that ‘the monstrous vices of the son have cast a shade on the purity of the father’s virtues’.2 More re cently, the latest edition of the Oxford Classical Dictionary summarises Earlier versions of this paper were delivered at the ‘Bristol Myth Colloquium’ (14-16 July 1998) and the seminar Stadtkultur in der römischen Kaiserzeit at the Deutsches Archäologisches Institut in Rome (24-1-2000). My gratitude to the organisers for inviting me, and to all participants for their comments. Spe cial thanks go to Professors Fergus Millar, Thomas Wiedemann and Wolf Lie- beschuetz, who have kindly read earlier drafts of this article, and to Professor Luuk de Blois and Dr Stephan Mols for their help during the research upon which much of this article is based. Their comments have been of great help, as was the criticism of the editors and readers of SCI. This paper will appear, in alternative form, as part of Ο.
