We apply a combination of several old and new techniques ranging from tradi- tional toponymic analysis to novel modifications of cluster analysis. Our hybrid human- machine method demonstrates that Ptolemy’s information on West Africa is a compilation of data from three or more sources, including at least one version or derivative of The Periplus of Hanno. The newest iteration adds data for three more provinces of Ptolemy’s Libya — Mauretania Caesariensis, Africa and Aethiopia Interior— to Mauretania Tingitana and Libya Interior investigated in an earlier, unpublished version of the work that the late Lyudmila Filatova had contributed to as the founder of our multi-year project. The surviv- ing co-authors used their newest digital analysis methods (triangulation and flocking with Bayesian correction) and took into account their recent finds on Ptolemy’s Sinae (Guinea/Senegal, where Ptolemy had placed fish-eating Aethiopians). We discuss some of the weaknesses and fallacies of the earlier approaches to the problem.

Madrid. [-107ĺ] RESUMEN La cacería de halcones esta bien representada en los mosaicos romanos del Oriente: mosaicos de Madaba con la leyenda de Medea e Hipólito; de Argos y del norte de África: Cartago, de Kélibia, de Volubilis y de Piazza Armerina. Perdices se cazaban con cestos de redes, como se demuestra por los mosaicos de Kélibia, de Al- thiburos y de Oudna. Perdices se cazaban también con otra perdiz dentro de una jaula, caza representada en mosaicos de Palestina y de Jordania. Die Falkenjagd ist auf römischen Mosaiken des Orients trefflich dargestellt: Mo- saiken aus Madaba mit der Legende Medeas und des Hippolytos; aus Argos und aus Nordafrika: Karthago, Kelibia, Volubilis und von der Piazza Armerina. Rebhühner wurden mit Körben aus Netzen gefangen, wie sie auf den Mosaiken von Kélibia, aus Althiburos und Oudna dargestellt sind. Auch fing man sie mít einem Rebhuhn in einem Käfig, das ais köder diente, wie auf den Mosaiken mit Jagdszenen sus Palästi- na und Jordanien zu sehen ist.

  • Roman Era Carthage and Lepcis Magna a Comparative Study of the Romanization and The
    Roman era Carthage and Lepcis Magna a comparative study of the Romanization and the Libyphoenician survival of the two leading cities of Africa Proconsularis Andreas Lagaard, Historisk Institutt, UiO, HIS4090 Vår 2008 1 Preface: This thesis started off as an interest in the Phoenicians sparked off by Maria Eugenia Aubet's The Phoenicians and the West and especially her mention of the lost literary heritage from these peoples which intrigued me to no end. So when I had to choose a subject fro my work I was really interested in doing a piece on them and their lost history. However there were no thesis councilors available for that time period and I had to move my chosen period into the realm of Antiquity when the Phoenician homelands were reaching their historical dusk so to speak. I vacillated in the beginning between doing a study on the Alexandrian siege of Tyre with possible comparative avenues of research pertaining to the previous sieges/attacks on the island city state and a study on the Western Phoenicians and their zone of influence. As Jon Iddeng, my future thesis councilor to be, was an expert in Latin Literature and the Romans in general I chose to follow a path of study detailing their archenemies the Punic peoples. At first I in my naivety thought that the whole Punic realm of the Western Mediterranean would be a fitting subject for study. I quickly realized the vast magnitude of such an undertaking and scaled down my subject to first just the Punic peoples in Africa and then later to just the populations of Punic Africa's heartlands in Tunisia and Libya.

  • Romanization in the Far West: Local Practices in Western Mauritania (2 Nd C
    Carmen Aranegui and Jaime Vives-Ferrándiz Romanization in the Far West: Local Practices in Western Mauritania (2 nd c. BCE – 2nd c. CE) Introduction Cultural processes in the Straits of Gibraltar have always been dynamic, and still are. Romanization is no exception, but few atemps have been made to understand this process from the global perspective of the Punic territories of the Western Mediterranean. Understanding this problematic interaction in the area we are dealing with in this paper, the Straits of Gibraltar, requires us to move beyond contemporary North-South and East-West boundaries – determined by African-European boundaries to a certain extent – and to consider both shores together, assessing not only the similarities in the relationships they make, but also the differences. An array of significant practices at the level of the local ground are analysed in this paper in relation to the role of Rome in the Straits – and especially in Western Mauritania – and to the process traditionally known as Romanization. The term Mauritania will be used here in its old toponymic meaning; that is the country whose boundaries were similar to those - grosso modo - of the Kingdom of Morocco nowadays. The period considered in this paper ranges, broadly speaking, from the second century BCE to the first century CE. As stated in the aims of the session, we want to challenge traditional approaches to the way Romanization has been conceptualised and explore the way different, multilayered, identities were expressed in different contexts. A short summary of the economic situation is provided at the beginning of this paper, concentrating on fishing activities, and stressing the correspondences between and the integration of both shores in the context of productive and commercial activities.

  • VON DER CIVITAS ZUR MADĪNA 20 Jahre Archäologische Forschungen Auf Der Iberischen Halbinsel
    VON DER CIVITAS ZUR MADĪNA 20 jahre archäologische forschungen auf der iberischen halbinsel Sonia Gutiérrez Lloret Universidad de Alicante Die Transformation der antiken Stadt im Frühmittelalter ist in der aktuellen europäischen Forschung ein Thema von entscheidender Bedeutung, dem man sich aus unterschiedlichen Perspektiven und von unterschiedlichen Forschungstraditionen her angenähert hat, die den Teil- nehmern an der Diskussion bekannt sein dürften. In Bezug auf Hispanien steht jede Diskussion über den städtischen Raum mit dem Prozess der Islamisierung und mit der Entstehung des frühen al-Andalus in Verbindung und diese ist wiederum untrennbar mit den Resultaten der Archäologie verbunden. Vor zwei Jahrzehnten habe ich das Problem der Zerstörung der antiken und die Entste- hung der islamischen Stadt untersucht, und zwar als einen Prozess, der nicht nur in eine Richtung verläuft und offensichtliche Diskontinuitäten impliziert. Die jüngsten Fortschritte sind allgemein bekannt; grundlegend für diese Dis kussion sind die Siedlungs- abfolgen zwischen dem 6. und dem 10. Jh. Mein Beitrag bietet aus der Perspektive der Archäologie und anhand einiger signifikanter Fallstudien eine Reflexion über die Fortschritte, die wir hinsichtlich der Kennt- nis der westgotischen Städte und der frühen islamischen Urbanistik verzeichnen können (Karte 1, p. 34). Stadtgeschichte ist einer meiner Forschungsschwerpunkte. Seit über zwei Jahrzehnten leite ich ein Projekt über einen hochmittelalterlichen Stadtkern im Südosten der Iberischen Halbinsel1. Der archäologische Park El Tolmo de Minateda in Hellín (Albacete, Spanien) war eine wichtige Iberer- siedlung, die zur Zeit des Augustus — wahrscheinlich mit dem Namen Ilunum2 — zum municipium erhoben wurde. Nach der Aufgabe der Stadt erfolgte zu Beginn des 7. Jahrhunderts eine Neugrün- dung als Bischofsitz und Zentralort, und zwar im Kontext der geopolitischen Reorganisation der Westgoten im Südosten Hispaniens, die aufgrund des Konflikts mit Byzanz notwendig geworden war.

  • An Archaeological History of Carthaginian Imperialism
    An Archaeological History of Carthaginian Imperialism Nathan Pilkington Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 ©2013 Nathan Pilkington All rights reserved ABSTRACT An Archaeological History of Carthaginian Imperialism Nathan Pilkington Carthage is the least understood imperial actor in the ancient western Mediterranean. The present lack of understanding is primarily a result of the paucity of evidence available for historical study. No continuous Carthaginian literary or historical narrative survives. Due to the thorough nature of Roman destruction and subsequent re-use of the site, archaeological excavations at Carthage have recovered only limited portions of the built environment, material culture and just 6000 Carthaginian inscriptions. As a result of these limitations, over the past century and half, historical study of Carthage during the 6th- 4th centuries BCE traditionally begins with the evidence preserved in the Greco-Roman sources. If Greco-Roman sources are taken as direct evidence of Carthaginian history, these sources document an increase in Carthaginian military activity within the western Mediterranean during the 6th and 5th centuries BCE. Scholars have proposed three different dates for the creation of the Carthaginian Empire from this evidence: c. 650, c.550 or c. 480 BCE. Scholars have generally chosen one of these dates by correlating textual narratives with ‘corroborating’ archaeological evidence. To give an example, certain scholars have argued that destruction layers visible at Phoenician sites in southwestern Sardinia c. 550-500 represent archaeological manifestations of the campaigns of Malchus and Mago’s sons recorded in the sources.

The year is 1833, shortly after the British have established a system of National Schools, with English as the language of instruction, as an alternative to these more informal “hedge schools” that taught in Irish. Even more recently a group of British soldiers have arrived in Baile Beag as part of the new Ordnance Survey of Ireland, which is replacing every Irish place name with an English equivalent, and a lieutenant called George Yolland has gone missing after a dance. The wrath of the British Army descends on the town as a whole, and Captain Lancey has just announced that unless information as to the whereabouts of the young man is forthcoming within twenty- four hours, all the livestock in the town will be shot, and that twenty- four hours later the settlement itself will be razed to the ground. Amidst the ensuing panic, the old schoolmaster Hugh O’Donnell remains on stage with his old students Maire and Jimmy Jack, and a few drinks inside him. He leaves his pupils and the audience with the Roman poet Virgil’s description of Carthage, translating from Latin into Irish as he goes: Urbs antiqua fuit—ther e was an ancient city which, ’tis said, Juno loved above all the lands.
