Abstract

The transport stirrup jar was a vessel type used extensively in the Late Bronze Age III Aegean world. Found in a variety of contexts, the type was used both to transport and to store liquid commodities in bulk. The peak of the production and exchange of this jar corresponded with the time of economic expansion on the Greek mainland. On Crete, stirrup jars appeared at most major centres on the island. Their presence in large numbers in storerooms indicates the movement of commodities and the centralised storage and control of goods. The broad distribution of stirrup jars at coastal sites in the eastern Mediterranean and their presence in the cargoes of the Uluburun, Gelidonya, and Iria shipwrecks clearly shows their role in the extensive exchange networks within the Aegean and beyond. Because they represent significant Aegean exchange, tracing their origins and movement provides information regarding production centres and trade routes. This study concentrates on determinating of provenance of the jars and the subsequent tracing of exchange routes. The fully integrated research design is an interdisciplinary, collaborative archaeological project that embraces typological, chemical, petrographic, and epigraphic approaches in order to shed light on the jars' classification and origin. The results of the chemical and petrographic work constitute primary parts of the study. By establishing the origins and distribution of the jars, these vases are placed within their historical context.The identification of production centres and export routes is critical for a full understanding of the economic and political conditions in the Late Bronze Age Aegean and eastern Mediterranean.

Abstract

This study presents a systematic analysis of the huge, and in most cases, completely new archaeological evidence for amber from Lithuania and the surrounding regions. A comprehensive synthesis of archaeological evidence and written sources provides an opportunity to develop new viewpoints about the sources of amber, extraction methods, amber-wearing traditions in different Aestii/Balt cultures and by people of different social status, ages and genders, and the amber trade in different markets in Lithuania and the whole eastern Baltic region. However, a tradition of amber usage in Lithuania was dependent not only on the ability of local communities to acquire “northern gold” but, to a larger degree, its use in the north was determined by cultural developments that took place in Europe.

Abstract

Entre le VIIe et le XVIIe siècle, sur les étroites plaines côtières du centre du Viet Nam, a fleuri une civilisation aujourd'hui disparue et peu connue, le Champa.0Les premiers orientalistes français commencèrent à s'y intéresser à la fin du XIXe en dressant des débuts d'inventaires. Mais ils s'en détournèrent rapidement au profit du Cambodge et d'Angkor. 0Le présent ouvrage propose une analyse de l'art Cham : textes gravés sur pierre, temples, et sculptures d'une grande originalité. Il présente chacun des 25 grands sites inventoriés et chaque temple encore debout en le replaçant dans l'ensemble des monuments où il a été dressé avec ses décors architecturaux. Il inclut également le tissage traditionnel ainsi que l'orfèvrerie ancienne.0.

Abstract

Publié à l'occasion de l'exposition présentée du 13 octobre 2011 au 16 janvier 2012 au musée du Louvre à Paris. Les richesses inestimables trouvées sur le territoire de la Macédoine antique, en Grèce du Nord, attestent de l'importance capitale de cette région, patrie d'Alexandre le Grand. La découverte en 1977 de Aigai/Vergina, site aux richesses et au raffinement extraordinaires, identifié comme première capitale de Macédoine, a marqué le début de recherches intensives sur la région. Le présent ouvrage rassemble pour la première fois un ensemble exhaustif de trésors inestimables - bijoux en matières précieuses, armes, ustensiles, éléments de parure... - de la civilisation macédonienne.
