The Hellenistic Pottery from the Panayia Field, Corinth: Studies in Chronology and Context Copyright by Sarah Anne James 2010 The Dissertation Committee for Sarah Anne James certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: The Hellenistic Pottery from the Panayia Field, Corinth: Studies in Chronology and Context Committee: Cynthia W. Shelmerdine, Co-Supervisor Jennifer Gates Foster, Co-Supervisor Adam T. Rabinowitz Steven J. Friesen Guy D. R. Sanders The Hellenistic Pottery from the Panayia Field, Corinth: Studies in Chronology and Context by Sarah Anne James, B.A.; M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin December 2010 Dedication For my mother. Acknowledgements First and foremost I must acknowledge Corinth‟s director Dr. Guy Sanders, who gave me permission to study material from deposits in the Panayia Field, the South Stoa and various other sites throughout the city. I am deeply indebted to him both for providing the impetus for this project and for his knowledgeable guidance and infinite patience during the course of my research. I must also thank Corinth‟s assistant director Ioulia Tzonou-Herbst for her ever cheerful assistance and support with even the smallest problems and Corinth‟s multi-talented architect James Herbst for his help with the architecture of the Panayia Field and database management. I am also very grateful to Guy Sanders and Ioulia Tzonou-Herbst for facilitating this research through the skills of the photographers, draftspeople, conservators, pot menders and excavators who work at Corinth. I would like to especially thank Nicol Anastasatou, Takis Notis and Tasos Kakouros for their careful work in conserving and mending the material from the Panayia Field deposits. I would also like to thank those who meticulously excavated the deposits, in particular Panos Kakouros (who dug four of the seven Panayia Field deposits), and those supervising and recording the excavations, including Jen Palinkas, for their hard work and diligence. In regard to other deposits in Corinth, I owe the deepest thanks to Dr. Charles Williams and to Drs. Ian McPhee and Elizabeth Pemberton. Mr. Williams very generously allowed me to study and include two Hellenistic deposits from the area East of the Theater (Deposits 28 and 29), which form part of the low end of the Panayia Field chronology. I am also hugely indebted to Drs. Ian McPhee and Elizabeth Pemberton for allowing me to use the quantified data from drain 1971-1 before the publication of their volume (Corinth VII.6). This data helped to anchor the high end of the Panayia Field v chronology. In addition, both Drs. McPhee and Pemberton very kindly shared their vast knowledge of Classical and Hellenistic ceramics with me in the early stages of my research, for which I am truly grateful. I must also thank the American School of Classical Studies at Athens for granting me the Homer and Dorothy Thompson fellowship (2007-2008) and to the University of Texas at Austin, who awarded me the Livingston fellowship (2008-2009). This research would not have been possible without such financial support. Corinth is not an isolated place, and I have benefitted immensely from my contact with those scholars who also work there. I would like to thank Drs. Nancy Bookidis and Kathleen Slane for answering specific questions and for their general support. I am also grateful to Dr. Martha Risser and Dr. Mark Lawall, who consulted on the foundation deposit and the amphoras of the Panayia Field deposits respectively. I also owe many thanks for past kindnesses to Drs. Joseph Shaw and Margaret Miller, who guided me as an undergraduate and graduate student at the University of Toronto. I am also grateful to Drs. Tim Gregory and Daniel Pullen for bringing me into the Corinthia for the first time and for their continued encouragement. More recently, I am very grateful to my committee for their enthusiasm, support and guidance. Finally, I thank my husband Dimitri Nakassis for enduring my long absences and always welcoming me home. Also many thanks are due to my parents, who have supported me through every stage of my academic career. I am also grateful to those who were always ready to talk shop at the end of the day, in particular Alicia Carter, Scott Gallimore, Mark Hammond, Theodora Kopestonsky and Thanos Webb. vi The Hellenistic Pottery from the Panayia Field, Corinth: Studies in Chronology and Context Publication No._____________ Sarah Anne James, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Austin, 2010 Supervisors: Cynthia W. Shelmerdine, Jennifer Gates Foster The new chronology of Corinthian fine ware presented in this dissertation is based on pottery from the recently discovered Hellenistic deposits (dated from the 3rd to 1st c. B.C.) in the Panayia Field. This new Panayia Field chronology was created by first quantifying the pottery in each deposit and then seriating the deposits in order to plot the initial production and use-life of individual ceramic shapes. The results substantially revise the previous chronology of Corinthian Hellenistic pottery published in Corinth VII.3, which has long been acknowledged as problematic by scholars of the period. One key aspect in which the Panayia Field chronology differs from its predecessor is in the recognition that pottery production resumed in Corinth after the sack of the city in 146 B.C. The evidence for a post-146 B.C. or interim period ceramic industry and its products are discussed in detail. vii Using the new Panayia Field chronology, the South Stoa and numerous previously excavated deposits at Corinth are re-assessed. Arguably, the most important Hellenistic structure in Corinth, the South Stoa, now appears to have been begun in the 290s rather than the 330s B.C. Attempts are also made to address the cultural and economic history of Hellenistic Corinth for the first time. For instance, the adoption of certain shapes into the local ceramic assemblage illustrates the influence of the Hellenistic koine on Corinthian culture. At the local level, the continued production of ceramic kraters in the late 3rd to early 2nd c. B.C. and their findspots seem to suggest that metal vessels were more commonly used in public spaces. In terms of trade, the data on imported fine ware and amphoras from more than 60 deposits clearly demonstrate the flow of goods through the city and Corinth‟s role in the trade networks of the Hellenistic period. This analysis reveals a strong connection to Athens during the Macedonian occupation, increasing contact with Italy and the Aegean beginning in the late 3rd c. B.C. and the continuity of Corinth‟s economic contacts into the interim period. viii Table of Contents List of Charts........................................................................................................ xiii Chapter 1: Introduction and Methodology ...............................................................1 Hellenistic Corinth ..........................................................................................2 History of Scholarship on Hellenistic Corinth ................................................3 The Panayia Field ...........................................................................................7 Methodology .................................................................................................13 Chapter 2: Corinthian Hellenistic Fine Ware .........................................................27 Introduction ...................................................................................................27 Fabrics ...........................................................................................................31 Decoration .....................................................................................................36 Organization of Production ...........................................................................42 Chapter 3: Drinking Vessels ..................................................................................47 Introduction ...................................................................................................47 Classical Shapes ............................................................................................51 One-handled cup (Cat.

    A DIACHRONIC EXAMINATION OF THE ERECHTHEION AND ITS RECEPTION Alexandra L. Lesk, B.A., M.St. (Oxon.), M.A. Presented to McMicken College of Arts and Sciences and the Department of Classics of the University of Cincinnati in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2004 Committee: C. Brian Rose (Chair) Jack L. Davis Kathleen M. Lynch J. James Coulton Abstract iii ABSTRACT “A Diachronic Examination of the Erechtheion and Its Reception” examines the social life of the Ionic temple on the Athenian Akropolis, which was built in the late 5th century B.C. to house Athens’ most sacred cults and relics. Using a contextualized diachronic approach, this study examines both the changes to the Erechtheion between its construction and the middle of the 19th century A.D., as well as the impact the temple had on the architecture and art of these successive periods. This approach allows the evidence to shed light on new areas of interest such as the Post-Antique phases of the building, in addition to affording a better understanding of problems that have plagued the study of the Erechtheion during the past two centuries. This study begins with a re-examination of all the pertinent archaeological, epigraphical, and literary evidence, and proposes a wholly new reconstruction of how the Erechtheion worked physically and ritually in ancient times. After accounting for the immediate influence of the Erechtheion on subsequent buildings of the Ionic order, an argument for a Hellenistic rather than Augustan date for the major repairs to the temple is presented.

The aS trap Of Western Anatolia And The Greeks Abstract This dissertation explores the extent to which Persian policies in the western satrapies originated from the provincial capitals in the Anatolian periphery rather than from the royal centers in the Persian heartland in the fifth ec ntury BC. I begin by establishing that the Persian administrative apparatus was a product of a grand reform initiated by Darius I, which was aimed at producing a more uniform and centralized administrative infrastructure. In the following chapter I show that the provincial administration was embedded with chancellors, scribes, secretaries and military personnel of royal status and that the satrapies were periodically inspected by the Persian King or his loyal agents, which allowed to central authorities to monitory the provinces. In chapter three I delineate the extent of satrapal authority, responsibility and resources, and conclude that the satraps were supplied with considerable resources which enabled to fulfill the duties of their office. After the power dynamic between the Great Persian King and his provincial governors and the nature of the office of satrap has been analyzed, I begin a diachronic scrutiny of Greco-Persian interactions in the fifth century BC.

    IAN WORTHINGTON ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND THE DATE OF THE MYTILENE DECREE aus: Zeitschrift für Papyrologie und Epigraphik 83 (1990) 194–214 © Dr. Rudolf Habelt GmbH, Bonn 194 ALEXANDER THE GREAT AND THE DATE OF THE MYTILENE DECREE The Mytilene decree1 is almost as controversial a document as the circumstances in which it was passed. Its contents, centring on the means by which returning exiles to Mytilene on the island of Lesbos could be reconciled with those resident there, point to a dating, presumably, of 324 BC, the year in which Alexander III of Macedon issued the famous Exiles Decree, applicable to the Greek cities.2 The text of the Exiles Decree is given at Diodorus 18.8.4, although it is quite likely that he did not quote it in its entirety since in this passage he states that all exiles except for those under a curse are to be restored to their native cities; elsewhere (17.109.1), he says those charged with sacrilege and murder are also excluded (cf. Curtius 10.2.4 and Justin 13.5.2), whilst Pseudo-Plutarch (Mor. 221a) indicates that the Thebans were also excluded.3 Although the Exiles Decree is inextricably linked to any assessment of the Mytilene decree, it is the latter which is the subject of this paper. 1 IG xii 2, 6, OGIS 2 = Tod, GHI ii no.201, SEG xiii 434.

VILLAFRATE Department of Hygiene & Microbiology 'G. D'Alessandro', Center for Enterobacteriaceae of Southern Italy, University of Palermo, via del Vespro 133, 90127 Palermo, Italy (Accepted 11 July 1991) SUMMARY Characterization of 169 strains of Salmonella typhi of phage types C1; C4, D1 and D9 isolated in 1975-88 was carried out by rDNA gene restriction pattern analysis. Twenty-four isolates had been recovered during four large waterbone outbreaks in the last 20 years in Sicily; 145 strains, isolated from apparently sporadic cases of infection in Southern Italy in the same period of time, were also examined. Application of rRNA-DNA hybridization technique after digestion of chromo- somal DNA with Cla I showed the identity of patterns of the epidemic strains of phage types C1 and D1; confirming attribution of the outbreaks to single bacterial clones. Patterns of the two available strains of lysotype D9 were slightly different, whilst the 12 epidemic strains of phage type C4 could be assigned to two distinct patterns scarcely related to each other and, consequently, to two different clones. A considerable heterogeneity was detected among all apparently sporadic isolates of the four phage types under study. This fingerprinting method appears a reliable tool to complement phage typing in characterizing isolates of S. typhi. In particular, epidemiological features of spread of this salmonella serovar in areas, where simultaneous circulation of indigenous and imported strains occurs, can be elucidated.

  • SELEUKID STUDY DAY VII 'Warfare, Military & Society in the Seleukid
    SELEUKID STUDY DAY VII ‘Warfare, Military & Society in the Seleukid Kingdom’ (Sunday, 28 July to Sunday, 4 August 2019) Abstracts Almagor, Eran, Jerusalem, Israel ([email protected]) Plutarch (Life of Demetrius) and Others on the Battles of Ipsos and Kyrrhestika This paper aims to re-discuss the depiction of the Battles of Ipsos (301) and Kyrrhestika (285) as they are found in Plutarch’s Life of Demetrios (chs. 28–29 and 48–49 respectively), the main or only source for both military engagements. It purports to explore the information provided by Plutarch and to offer a reconstruction of the battle’s stages, in particular with regard to the feasible role (and number) of elephants employed. This conjecture will be made also with relation to proposals concerning Plutarch’s ultimate source as a means to better understand the battles. A comparison will be made with the descriptions of Ipsos by Diodoros (and scattered details found in other authors) and of Kyrrhestika by Polyainos. One of the points to be made is the extent to which Plutarch’s depictions echo each other and serve as a literary closure in his work: the first battle saw the end of Antigonos, the second the political end of Demetrios, his son. As the winner in both battles, Seleukos plays the role of the protagonist’s rival and limit. Berzon, Catherine, Moscow, Russia ([email protected]) The War between Demetrios I and Alexander Balas in the Light of Classical and Cuneiform Evidence The paper is concerned with the chronology and crucial events of the war between King Demetrios I Soter and the usurper Alexander Balas.
