Hirt INTRODUCTION The impact of Rome on the exploitation of natural resources remains highly visible in the many ancient stone and marble quarries dotting the landscape of the former empire. Not only do they reveal the techniques employed in separating the marble or granite from the rock face, the distribution of their output can still be traced. The progressively more scientific determination of type and origin of these stones used in sacred and profane architecture of the Roman Empire reveals an increasingly detailed image of the distributive patterns of coloured stones. Even so, the analysis of these patterns stays vexed: the written sources are frightfully mute on the core issues, expressly on the emperor’s role in the quarrying industry and his impact on the marble trade. Scholarly discourse has oscillated between two positions: John Ward- Perkins argued that by the mid-first century AD all ‘principal’ quarries were ‘nationalized’, i.e. put under imperial control and leased out to contractors for rent; the quarries were a source of revenue for the emperor, the distribution of its output driven by commercial factors.1 Clayton Fant, however, offered a different view: the emperor monopolized the use of coloured and white marbles and their sources not for profit, but for ‘prestige’, consolidating his position as unchallenged patron and benefactor of the empire.

    ARTS • ARCHITECTURAL HISTORY Historical Dictionaries of Literature and the Arts, No. 29 PALMER HISTORICAL DICTIONARY OF Architecture, which can be understood in its most basic sense as a form of enclosure created with an aesthetic intent, first made its appearance in the Prehistoric Age. From its earliest developments, architecture changed over time and in different cultures in response to changing cultural needs, aesthetic interests, materials, and techniques. Architecture The Historical Dictionary of Architecture provides information on architects HISTORICAL such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Tadao Ando, Leon Battista Alberti, Filippo DICTIONARY Brunelleschi, Michelangelo, and Konstantin Stepanovich Melnikov, as well as OF A on famous structures such as the Acropolis, the Colosseum, the Forbidden City, Machu Pichu, Notre Dame, the Pyramids of Giza, Stonehenge, and the World Trade Center. The dictionary examines the development of architecture rchitecture over the centuries through a chronology, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on the major architects, well-known buildings, time periods, styles, building types, and materials in world architecture.

  • The Insula of the Paintings at Ostia 1.4.2–4 Paradigm for a City in Flux1
    5 The Insula of the Paintings at Ostia 1.4.2–4 Paradigm for a city in flux1 Janet DeLaine Introduction The life of a city is complex and ever changing, but archaeological and particularly structural evidence by its nature often tends to represent urban development as a series of static tableaux. Ostia is a case in point, despite the fact that here, as at Pompeii, we are dealing with a city more than two-thirds laid bare by excavation. Although the city existed for some 13 centuries, the fabric is predominantly that of the 2nd century AD, with some 3rd and 4th century buildings of note and pockets of construction going back to the original castrum walls of the 4th century BC; as a result we tend to assign all aspects of its development into a very few broad phases—five or six at the most—lasting several generations, while forgetting the dynamics of change which conspired to bring it about. Thanks to Russell Meiggs’s heroic work of synthesis, the overall picture is familiar;2 what eludes us are the nuances of the changing city, the city in flux. Meiggs himself was aware that the picture he presented was painted with a broad brush on a coarse canvas; when discussing the changes in the 4th century AD, his comment that “if we were better informed we should see a more complex picture” (p. 96) could be applied to almost any aspect and almost any period of Ostian life. My intention here is to trace the changing nature of one structure, the Insula of the Paintings (1.4.2–4, Fig.

  • The Empire Strikes: the Growth of Roman Infrastructural Minting Power, 60 B.C
    The Empire Strikes: The Growth of Roman Infrastructural Minting Power, 60 B.C. – A.D. 68 A dissertation submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classics of the College of Arts and Sciences by David Schwei M.A., University of Cincinnati, December 2012 B.A., Emory University, May 2009 Committee Chairs: Peter van Minnen, Ph.D Barbara Burrell, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Coins permeated the Roman Empire, and they offer a unique perspective into the ability of the Roman state to implement its decisions in Italy and the provinces. This dissertation examines how this ability changed and grew over time, between 60 B.C. and A.D. 68, as seen through coin production. Earlier scholars assumed that the mint at Rome always produced coinage for the entire empire, or they have focused on a sudden change under Augustus. Recent advances in catalogs, documentation of coin hoards, and metallurgical analyses allow a fuller picture to be painted. This dissertation integrates the previously overlooked coinages of Asia Minor, Syria, and Egypt with the denarius of the Latin West. In order to measure the development of the Roman state’s infrastructural power, this dissertation combines the anthropological ideal types of hegemonic and territorial empires with the numismatic method of detecting coordinated activity at multiple mints. The Roman state exercised its power over various regions to different extents, and it used its power differently over time. During the Republic, the Roman state had low infrastructural minting capacity.

There is one line of text around the edge of the stamp, and in the centre is a canine animal (interpreted by Dressel 1891 as a wolf, whilst Lanciani 1868: p.174 considered it to be a dog), walking to the right, with one front paw raised. It seems likely that it should be viewed as a wolf (lupus), punning upon the name of its producer (Bodel 2005).

  • Hadrian's Second Jewish Revolt: Political Or Religious
    1 Hadrian’s Second Jewish Revolt: Political or Religious? By Ronnie Leslie Western Oregon University Hst. 499: Senior Seminar Professor Kimberly Jensen Spring 2005 Primary Thesis Advisor: Dr. Benedict Lowe Secondary Thesis Adviser: Dr. Narasingha Sil 2 I No matter how broad the gathering of evidence, there is a certain degree of opinion involved in deciding what to include in Hadrian’s Second Jewish revolt. Our knowledge of the reign of Hadrian is problematic due to the lack of evidence. Not only are contemporary documents relatively rare, but our knowledge of specific events of Hadrian’s reign is also limited. However, there are certain aspects of Hadrian’s reign that have stirred up numerous myths and truths which have been debated throughout history. Foremost amongst these are Hadrian’s meticulous Hellenistic program which reorganized certain cities of the Roman Empire particularly the cities of the East, and his major structural and social reforms forced on the Jews leading to the Jewish revolt of AD 132- 135 characterized his rule. His rule is characterized as himself being his own man in administration of the Roman Empire. Therefore, was Hadrian’s political ideology toward the empire the cause of the Second Jewish revolt, or was it his religious ideology that forced him to belief that the Jews were inferior by enforce major reforms, and policy in Judaea. The second Jewish uprising against Rome is only comparable in its significance and its far-reaching consequences with the first uprising of A.D. 66, although there is one essential difference to this initial revolt, the source material on which we must rely on in 1 order to reconstruct the events is inferior to that of the earlier Jewish war.

  • The Role of the Sun in the Pantheon's Design and Meaning
    The role of the sun in the Pantheon’s design and meaning Robert Hannah Giulio Magli Department of Classics Faculty of Civil Architecture University of Otago Politecnico di Milano P.O. Box 56 P.le Leonardo da Vinci 32 Dunedin 9054 20133 Milan New Zealand Italy [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Despite being one of the most recognisable buildings from ancient Rome, the Pantheon is poorly understood. While its architecture has been well studied, its function remains uncertain. This paper argues that both the design and the meaning of the Pantheon are in fact dependent upon an understanding of the role of the sun in the building, and of the apotheosised emperor in Roman thought. Supporting evidence is drawn not only from the instruments of time in the form of the roofed spherical sundial, but also from other Imperial monuments, notably Nero’s Domus Aurea and Augustus’s complex of structures on the Campus Martius – his Ara Pacis, the ‘Horologium Augusti’, and his Mausoleum. Hadrian’s Mausoleum and potentially part of his Villa at Tivoli are drawn into this argument as correlatives. Ultimately, it is proposed that sun and time were linked architecturally into cosmological signposts for those Romans who could read such things. 1 Keywords Pantheon, sun, Mausoloeum of Hadrian, Domus Aurea, ‘Horologium Augusti, Ara Pacis 1. Introduction The Pantheon is the best preserved architectural monument of the Roman period in Rome (fig. 1). Originally built by Agrippa around 27 BC under Augustus’s rule, it was destroyed by fire under Domitian, then rebuilt and finally completed in its present form during Hadrian’s reign, in ca.
