FSAPM is reliant on satellite image data sources for prospecting, identifying, recording, and mapping largely unknown archaeological sites as well as studying their landscapes in the region. The purpose is to record and document sites in this endangered area for saving its cultural heritage. The sites in question consist of fortified architectural remains in an ancient border zone between the Graeco-Roman/Byzantine world and Parthia/Persia. The location of the archaeological sites in the terrain and the visible archaeological remains, as well as their dimensions and sizes were determined from the ortorectified satellite images, which also provided coordinates.

  • Acknowledgements
    acknowledgements this book was the product of a British Acade my Mid- career Fellowship that I held 2018–19 at Aga Khan University, Institute for the Study of Muslim Ci- vilisations. I would like to thank every one at the Institute, especially the dean, Leif Stenberg, for their convivial support. My thinking on Dionysius of Tel- Mahre was first stimulated by a work- shop on elites in the caliphate that was or ga nized by Stefan Heidemann and Hannah Hagemann at Hamburg for the ERC proj ect ‘The Early Islamic Em- pire at Work’. Here I presented an early version of what became chapter 3 of this book, and the discussions I had there were very impor tant for thinking through my ideas. I also benefited from my involvement with Petra Sijpesteijn’s Leiden ERC proj ect, ‘Embedding Conquest: Naturalising Muslim Rule in the Early Islamic Empire (600–1000)’, where I presented an early version of chapter 4. Audi- ences at Oxford, Cambridge, London, Frankfurt and Milan provided feedback on many aspects of the work. Peter Van Nuffelen, Maria Conterno and Marianna Mazzola kindly shared with me their work on the fragments of Dionysius and I am very grateful to them indeed. I should like to show my par tic u lar thanks to Hannah Hagemann and Phil Booth, who read the entire manuscript of the book and made many valuable suggestions. I would also like to thank Averil Cameron, Andrew Marsham, Liza Anderson, Chip Coakley, David Taylor, Salam Rassi, Ed Hayes, Ed Zychowicz- Coghill, Fanny Bessard, Jan van Ginkel, Srecko Koralija, Daniel Hadas, James Montgomery, Andy Hilkens, Peter Sarris, Jack Tannous, Ben Tate, Sara Lerner, Hanna Siurua, Greg Fisher, and the anonymous reviewer from Prince ton University Press.

  • The Evaluation and Improvement Method of Waterfront Urban Landscape, 49Th ISOCARP Congress 2013
    Zhao Ye, The Evaluation and Improvement Method of Waterfront Urban Landscape, 49th ISOCARP Congress 2013 The Evaluation and Improvement Method of Waterfront Urban Landscape: the Case of Urban Landscape Planning for West Lake in Hangzhou, China Ye ZHAO, School of Architecture and Planning, Southeast University, China Jianguo WANG, School of Architecture and Planning, Southeast University, China Abstract Urban landscape usually contains two layers of meaning: landscape and viewing, especially in waterfront zone. Traditional design focuses on landscape design which purely improve the quality of objects in static, passive way much more than noticing the initiative viewer as subject. Actually, landscape and viewing are dialectic. Interactive design using reasonable visual evaluation methods, integrated with “positive” human activity optimization as well as “passive” landscape improvement, can be helpful to enhance the quality and controllability. West Lake in Hangzhou is the famous cultural heritage in China with humanities and nature fitting each other perfectly, which also represents the model of blending natural scenery and modern city. However, it faces some urgent problems in modern urban development, the relationship between West Lake and the city has become extremely uncoordinated, as it suffered very serious “pressure” from the city. This paper takes West Lake as example, basing on lots of survey, analyzes the visual effect from every grid viewpoint on the lake (using GPS to locate), and tries to find out the both way of adjustment from the respects of viewer and landscape, and finally proposes some thinking of the design method. Being water-adjacent is one of the critical principles for ancient cities. In contemporary city, although the functional factor has gradually declined, the landscape meaning is getting greater.

  • ECCLESIAE OCCIDENTALIS MONUMENTA IURIS ANTIQUISSIMA Ed
    ECCLESIAE OCCIDENTALIS MONUMENTA IURIS ANTIQUISSIMA ed. C.H. Turner (Oxford, 1899-1939) Index of Names and Selected Words Corrected, revised, and extended 2008 by Philip R. Amidon, S.J. Creighton University [email protected] It has seemed opportune to republish this index in a corrected and extended version; there has been added to the list of names a list of selected words, and the method of referring to the text has been somewhat altered. The exact scope of C.H. Turner’s masterpiece is not immediately apparent from its title or subtitles (Canonum et conciliorum graecorum interpretationes latinae; Canones et concilia graeca ab antiquis interpretibus latine reddita). What one in fact finds here is an edition of the earliest surviving collections of church canons in Latin which are undoubtedly from the fourth century or have been assigned to it by at least some consensus of scholarship; some of them are translations from Greek, while others were originally drafted in Latin itself. Most of them, with the exception of the Apostolic Constitutions and Canons, are attributed to church councils. Turner, however, also offers a selection of doctrinal and historical material of enormous value, some of it indeed connected to the councils whose canons he edits; a comparison, for instance, of the creed contained in the synodical letter of the Council of Sardica with the Tomus Damasi, will suggest how far the doctrinal education of the western church advanced during the course of the fourth century. The connection of other historical matter to the canons is less obvious, however; one wonders what the Athanasian Historia acephala is doing here (granted that it is part of the collection of Theodosius the Deacon), however grateful one is to have the edition.

  • Bizans İmparatorluğu Zamanında Amida (Diyarbakır) (IV.-VII
    ISSN: 1309 4173 (Online) 1309 - 4688 (Print) Volume 7 Issue 2, Special Issue on Byzantine, p. 77-97, March 2015 Bizans İmparatorluğu Zamanında Amida (Diyarbakır) (IV.-VII. Yüzyıl) Amida during the Reign of the Byzantine Empire (4-7th Centuries CE) Yrd. Doç. Dr. Ahmet KÜTÜK Mardin Artuklu Üniversitesi - Mardin Öz: Bu makalede, erken Bizans döneminde Bizans ve Sasani İmparatorlukları arasında sürdürülen sınır savaşları ve Sasanilerin Amida’ya karşı gerçekleştirdikleri 359 ve 503 yılı kuşatmaları incelenerek, İmparatorluğu’nun doğuda takip ettiği sınır politikasının genel esasları tespit edilmektedir. Bizans ve Sasani İmparatorlukları arasındaki mücadelelerde, Mezopotamya’da Nisibis (Nusaybin), Anastasiopolis (Dara), Singara (Sincar), daha kuzeyde Silvan (Meyyafarikin), Theodesiopolis (Erzurum) gibi şehirlerin doğrudan sınır hattında olması hasebiyle imparatorluk için birinci dereceden önem arz ettikleri görülmektedir. Amida (Diyarbakır), Tella (Viranşehir), Resu’l Ayn (Ceylanpınar), Callinicum (Rakka) gibi yerleşim yerleri ise daha geride ikinci dereceden savunma hattı olmuşlardır. Sasani ordularının zaman zaman birinci hattı aşarak ikinci hattın en önemli şehri olan Amida’ya kadar gelmesi imparatorluk için bir alarm durumu olarak JHS telakki edilmiş, sınırda katı önlemler alınmıştır. Roma kaynaklarında 4. yüzyılın ikinci yarısından 7. yüzyılın ortalarına kadar ki dönemde Amida vesilesiyle zikredilen olaylar, bu şehrin özellikle 363’ten sonraki dönemde askeri ve idari açıdan daha stratejik bir konum kazandığını H i s t o r y göstermektedir. S t u d i e s Anahtar Kelimeler: Doğu Roma İmparatorluğu, Bizans, Amida, Sasaniler, II. Şapur, I. Kavad Volume 7 Issue 2 Abstract: This article examines in general the border wars between the Byzantine and the Sasanid Special empires in the early Byzantine period and in particular the Sasanid siege of Amida in 359 and 503.

At roughly the same time as the medical description produced by Aëtius of Amida, the Syrian chronicler John of Ephesus, also from Amida, reported an epidemic of dog-like madness sweeping his home town in AD 560. The symptoms are identical and both authors are from Amida – what is the connection between the two depictions? In addition to the history of the medical concept, the example of the canine madness of Amida and its cultural embedding allows us to contextualize and interpret the significance of dog-like behaviour for the people of the sixth century AD. Keywords Aëtius of Amida, demonic possession, John of Ephesus, late antiquity, lycanthropy, melancholy Introduction The medical compendium by Aëtius of Amida from the sixth century AD dedicates an astonishing amount of space to the illness kynanthropy. This melancholic illness receives an entire chapter in combination with lycanthropy (Aëtius VI 11, Olivieri, 1950: 151–2). Dog and wolf are thus the only two animals whose imitation the medicine of late antiquity categorizes as illness concepts in their own right. Both of these forms of madness must have had particular relevance for authors during this period.
