Butrint 3: Excavations at the Triconch Palace
edited by William Bowden and Richard Hodges
This engaging and well-illustrated volume describes the excavations of a large urban sector, the so-called Triconch Palace, of the Adriatic seaport of Butrint. In so doing it adds to the new paradigm for the development of Roman towns in the Mediterranean. The book traces the changing nature of this rich and varied area - from 2nd-century Roman townhouses, to a 4th-century elite domus, to a Mid Byzantine trading area to late medieval allotments - ...

Myos Hormos - Quseir al-Qadim, Roman and Islamic Ports on the Red Sea, Volume 1: The Survey and Report on the Excavations
edited by David Peacock and Lucy Blue
Between 1999 and 2003, the University of Southampton conducted excavations at the site of Quseir al-Qadim. This excavation was prompted by the idea that the site was not the minor port of Leucos Limen - as had been thought by previous excavators from the University of Chicago - but the important site of Myos Hormos. This site, in tandem with its sister harbour at Berenike, saw the bulk of Rome's trade with India and the East. The present volume ...

Nicopolis ad Istrum III: A late Roman and early Byzantine City: the Finds and the biological Remains
edited by Andrew Poulter
This third and final monograph completes the description of the excavations carried out by the British team on the site of the Roman city of Nicopolis ad Istrum in northern Bulgaria. The reports here perform a dual role: they provide the material evidence upon which much of the interpretation of the site and its development is based, and they also constitute a unique resource for the palaeoeconomy and material culture of the region from the ...

Patterns in the Economy of Roman Asia Minor
edited by Stephen Mitchell and Constantina Katsari
Asia Minor under Rome was one of the wealthiest and most developed parts of the Empire, but there have been few modern studies of its economics. The twelve papers in this book, by an international team of scholars, work from literary texts, inscriptions, coinage and archaeology. They study the direct impact of Roman rule, the organization of large agricultural estates, changing patterns of olive production, threats to rural prosperity from pests ...

by Andrew Poulter, with contributions by T. Blagg, K. Butcher, J. Reynolds, P. Strange and T. Sturge
