Map 43 Latium Vetus Compiled by L Map 43 Latium Vetus Compiled by L. Quilici and S. Quilici Gigli, 1995 Introduction The environs of Rome have undergone enormous changes from antiquity onwards, caused more by human intervention than by natural phenomena. Changes were already occurring in the archaic period as the region's population increased; these earliest phases of urbanization have been considerably illuminated by recent research. The changes intensified in Late Republican and imperial times, when urbanization reached a level unique for antiquity. Building activity connected with the city extended far enough into the countryside to link with construction centered upon surroundings towns. Thus the towns on the Tiburtine, Praenestine and Alban hills, as well as Ostia and Antium on the coast, were considered suburbs of the metropolis. After antiquity, by contrast, the region was almost deserted except in the hills. In the Late Middle Ages and subsequently, the spread of malaria and the extension of a pastoral economy reduced it to little more than a wilderness littered with the ruins remaining from an earlier era. By definition, there is some difficulty about showing settlements of different periods on a single map. We have marked those that can be located with either certainty or a fair degree of probability. At this scale no attempt is made to include every small settlement, let alone the whole complex infrastructure of the area. But we do mark cultural features notable for their size, state of preservation, or historical significance. These include large Late Republican and imperial villas, and the greatest monumental tombs. Inevitably, many estates, villas and tombs (some of them far from negligible) have had to be omitted. Accurate representation of the road network has been a primary concern; most of it was paved with hard local basalt during the Late Republic and Early Empire, with some stretches remaining in use almost within living memory. To return the coastline, rivers, lakes and marshes to their ancient aspect is particularly difficult, and all this linework is therefore rendered with varying degrees of confidence. Notable uncertainty attaches to the Tiber estuary and to the Pomptine marshes; the latter were much changed by drainage and subsequent land reclamation and development (bonifica) in the first half of the twentieth century. For detailed coverage of specific areas, see the Forma Italiae and Latium Vetus series. Also valuable are the reports of the British School at Rome’s Ager Veientanus surface survey (Kahane 1968). For new findings, the Bullettino della Commissione Archeologica Comunale and the Archeologia Laziale series (1978-1995) are indispensable.

  • 1 ANNEX 1 Guidelines for the Preparation of Reports by Member
    ANNEX 1 Guidelines for the preparation of reports by Member States on the application of the 1970 Convention on the Means of Prohibiting and Preventing the Illicit Import, Export and Transfer of Ownership of Cultural Property As far as practicable, it is recommended that Member States follow all of the points contained in this draft. In its contribution, however, the State may disregard any aspects on which no information is available. Lastly, even though some points are framed as questions, the document must be regarded more as a guide than as a questionnaire. I. Information on the implementation of the UNESCO Convention of 1970 (with reference to its provisions) 1. Ratification of the Convention (a) Has this Convention already been ratified? Italy ratified the UNESCO Convention by Act N. 873 of 30 October 1975. In addition, the UNESCO Convention is mentioned in Legislative Decree No. 42 of 22 January 2004 (Art. 87 bis), that is the special law regarding the protection and enhancement of cultural heritage (“Code of the Cultural Heritage and Landscape”, hereafter “Code”), 2. Implementation in the national legal system and in the organization of services (a) Give the references of the principal national regulations adopted in order to implement the 1970 Convention? The principal national regulation in order to implement the 1970 Convention are Act N. 875 of 30 October 1975 and “Code” Law 42/2004 and its amendments. In particular the “Code” has been amended by Legislative Decree N. 62 of 26 March 2008 that introduced the article 87bis specifically concerning the application of the UNESCO Convention.

  • Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N
    Map 44 Latium-Campania Compiled by N. Purcell, 1997 Introduction The landscape of central Italy has not been intrinsically stable. The steep slopes of the mountains have been deforested–several times in many cases–with consequent erosion; frane or avalanches remove large tracts of regolith, and doubly obliterate the archaeological record. In the valley-bottoms active streams have deposited and eroded successive layers of fill, sealing and destroying the evidence of settlement in many relatively favored niches. The more extensive lowlands have also seen substantial depositions of alluvial and colluvial material; the coasts have been exposed to erosion, aggradation and occasional tectonic deformation, or–spectacularly in the Bay of Naples– alternating collapse and re-elevation (“bradyseism”) at a staggeringly rapid pace. Earthquakes everywhere have accelerated the rate of change; vulcanicity in Campania has several times transformed substantial tracts of landscape beyond recognition–and reconstruction (thus no attempt is made here to re-create the contours of any of the sometimes very different forerunners of today’s Mt. Vesuvius). To this instability must be added the effect of intensive and continuous intervention by humanity. Episodes of depopulation in the Italian peninsula have arguably been neither prolonged nor pronounced within the timespan of the map and beyond. Even so, over the centuries the settlement pattern has been more than usually mutable, which has tended to obscure or damage the archaeological record. More archaeological evidence has emerged as modern urbanization spreads; but even more has been destroyed. What is available to the historical cartographer varies in quality from area to area in surprising ways.

Bernard C. Brian Rose, Supervisor of Dissertation This dissertation investigates how Rome organized and paid for the considerable amount of labor that went into the physical transformation of the Middle Republican city. In particular, it considers the role played by the cost of public construction in the socioeconomic history of the period, here defined as 390 to 168 B.C. During the Middle Republic period, Rome expanded its dominion first over Italy and then over the Mediterranean. As it developed into the political and economic capital of its world, the city itself went through transformative change, recognizable in a great deal of new public infrastructure.

  • 1 Jupiter the Antiquarian : the Name of Iulus (Virgil, Aeneid 1.267–8)
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-11627-6 - Latin Literature and its Transmission: Papers in Honour of Michael Reeve Edited by Richard Hunter and S. P. Oakley Excerpt More information 1 JUPITER THE ANTIQUARIAN : THE NAME OF IULUS (VIRGIL, AENEID 1.267–8) ALESSANDRO BARCHIESI In his prophecy to Venus , Jupiter declares: at puer Ascanius, cui nunc cognomen Iulo additur – Ilus erat, dum res stetit Ilia regno – … But the boy Ascanius, to whom now the extra name ‘Iulus’ is given (he was called ‘Ilus’ while the Ilian state stood fi rm with its kingdom) (Virg. Aen . 1.267–8) This is a very intense moment in the poem and in its recon- struction of the Roman past. The name ‘Iulus’ provides the transition – brilliantly analysed in terms of prosody and politics by Cowan 2009 – between Trojan Ilus and Roman Iulius. The survival and metonomasia of Ilus are also cru- cial to the diffi cult negotiation between Augustan dynastic ideology and the Latin tradition of Silvius and the kings of Alba Longa. 1 The sentence is usually considered as a statement of fact – at this point in the story Iulus is acquiring his future name, and it appears to be obvious that Jupiter’s prophecy is complemen- tary to the narrator’s voice. Taken together, the two voices con- spire to give nunc a particular emphasis: a loaded moment in the plot, in the story itself, and in the tradition of the Aeneas legend, a legend so fertile in dynastic manipulations. Yet, if we consider whose voice it is, this will be seen to be more than I thank Cesare Letta and T.

Evans http://www.press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=17141, The University of Michigan Press C HAPTER THREE Dissertation I on the Waters and Aqueducts of Ancient Rome o the distinguished Giovanni Lucio of Trau, Raffaello Fabretti, son of T Gaspare, of Urbino, sends greetings. 1. introduction Thanks to your interest in my behalf, the things I wrote to you earlier about the aqueducts I observed around the Anio River do not at all dis- please me. You have in›uenced my diligence by your expressions of praise, both in your own name and in the names of your most learned friends (whom you also have in very large number). As a result, I feel that I am much more eager to pursue the investigation set forth on this subject; I would already have completed it had the abundance of waters from heaven not shown itself opposed to my own watery task.

  • Discovering a Roman Resort-Coat: the Litus Laurentinum and The
    DISCOVERING A ROMAN RESORT-COAST: THE LITUS LAURENTINUM AND THE ARCHAEOLOGY OF 1 OTIUM* Nicholas Purcell St John's College, Oxford I. Introductory Otium - the concept of leisure, the elaborate social and cultural definer of the Roman elite away from its business of political and military power - is famous. We can see in Roman literary texts how the practice of otium patterned everyday experience, and how it was expressed in physical terms in the arrangement, on a large and on a small scale, of all aspects of Roman space. The texts likewise show that much of what we would regard as social life, and nearly all of what we think of as economic, belonged in the domain of otium. The complexities and ambiguities of this material have been much studied.2 Roman archaeology equally needs to be an archaeology of otium, but there has been little attempt to think systematically about what that might entail. Investigating the relationship between a social concept such as otium and the material culture that is the primary focus of archaeology must in the first place involve describing Roman culture in very broad terms. The density of explicit or implicit symbolic meaning, the organisation of space and time, degrees of hierarchy of value or prestige: it is at that level of generalisation that the archaeologist and the cultural historian will find the common denominators that enable them to share in the construction of explanations of Roman social phenomena. In this account, which is based on research into a particular locality, we shall have to limit ourselves to one of these possibilities.

  • Eine Vergleichende Studie Zur Baupolitik Der Kaiser Traian Und Hadrian
    Die vorliegende Arbeit ist eine vergleichende Analyse der Herrschafts- und Baupolitik der Kaiser Traian und Hadrian. Da beide Herrscher einerseits für unterschiedliche politische und strategische Konzepte (z. B. Expansions- gegen Grenzsicherungspolitik) einstanden, andererseits jedoch durch Tina Wellhausen die Elemente des „humanitären Kaisertums“ und als Repräsentanten der Epoche der sogenannten Adoptivkaiser miteinander verbunden waren, wird hier kritisch untersucht, in welchen Bereichen der Regentschaften von Traian und Hadrian politische Kontinuität und in welchen Unterschiede zu Kriegsherr und Reisekaiser? konstatieren sind. Im Zentrum der Analyse steht vor allem die Baupolitik und damit einhergehend die kritische Untersuchung maßgeblicher Repräsentations- und Prestigebauten der beiden Kaiser in Rom. Der Leitfragestellung nach Intention und Selbstdarstellung durch monumentale Bauten Eine vergleichende Studie zur Baupolitik wird exemplarisch nachgegangen anhand der bedeutsamsten stadtrömischen Projekte beider der Kaiser Traian und Hadrian Kaiser: Forum Traiani mit Traianssäule, Mercati Traiani, Hadriansmausoleum, Tempel der Venus und der Roma, Pantheon sowie anderer Nutz- und Prestigebauten.

  • The Aqua Traiana / Aqua Paola and Their Effects on The
    THE AQUA TRAIANA / AQUA PAOLA AND THEIR EFFECTS ON THE URBAN FABRIC OF ROME Carolyn A. Mess A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Department of Architectural History In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Architectural History May 2014 Cammy Brothers __________________ Sheila Crane __________________ John Dobbins __________________ ii ABSTRACT Infrastructure has always played an important role in urban planning, though the focus of urban form is often the road system and the water system is only secondary. This is a misconception as often times the hydraulic infrastructure determined where roads were placed. Architectural structures were built where easily accessible potable water was found. People established towns and cities around water, like coasts, riverbanks, and natural springs. This study isolates two aqueducts, the Aqua Traiana and its Renaissance counterpart, the Aqua Paola. Both of these aqueducts were exceptional feats of engineering in their planning, building techniques, and functionality; however, by the end of their construction, they symbolized more than their outward utilitarian architecture. Within their given time periods, these aqueducts impacted an entire region of Rome that had twice been cut off from the rest of the city because of its lack of a water supply and its remote location across the Tiber. The Aqua Traiana and Aqua Paola completely transformed this area by improving residents’ hygiene, building up an industrial district, and beautifying the area of Trastevere. This study
