La conoscenza archeologica della Calabria nel Medioevo è ancora poco approfondita rispetto al resto dell'Italia meridionale, e questo rende difficile giudicare il ruolo che questa regione ha assunto nella crescita del nuovo Mediterraneo medievale dopo la disgregazione del mondo antico. L'area denominata "Altopiano del Poro", nell'odierna provincia di Vibo Valentia, è al centro di questo studio. Questo libro presenta una serie di dati raccolti per ricostruire le caratteristiche di questo territorio in fasi storiche omogenee. Lo studio definisce le tipologie degli insediamenti, le reti di siti esistenti al suo interno, le loro relazioni ed evoluzioni nel corso dei secoli. È accompagnato da uno studio campionato di materiale ceramico importato e locale. The archaeological knowledge of Calabria in the Middle Ages is still not very thorough compared to the rest of the Southern Italy, and this makes it difficult to judge the role that this region assumed in the growth of the new medieval Mediterranean after the shattering of the ancient world. The area called "Hilltop of Poro", in the modern province of Vibo Valentia, is the focus of this study. This book presents a series of data collected to reconstruct the features that characterized this territory in homogeneous historical phases. The study defines the types of settlements, the networks of sites existing within it, and their relationships and evolutions over the centuries. It is accompanied by a sampled study of imported and local ceramic material.

An account of the pre-Islamic hill top fortress of Shahr-i Zohak and its many turrets as recorded by Allchin and Professor Codrington in 1951, and these and other defensive sites in the Bamiyan Area visited by Baker in 1975 and 1988. Numerous photos, a few plans and sections; some pottery.

An examination of the assumption that there were extensive trade links along the western coasts of the British Isles. Particular attention is focussed on the links between Britain and Ireland, Gaul and beyond. Wooding argues that the links were sporadic and small scale. Full use is made of archaeological and textual sources. Details of routes, cargoes, links with Gaul and the Meditteranean and sites like Whithorn and Tintagel.

A reprint with updated material of the author's 1991 research into villas and farms and rural economy in the Late Roman era (Britain, Gaul, Italy, Spain and Gallia Belgica in the 3rd to 5th centuries AD). The volume challenges the assumption that the period studied was one of dramatic decline, and analyses the archaeological evidence in a wide-ranging survey.

This study examines aspects of Seth which suggest that throughout Egyptian history he was continually worshipped and indeed, at times, enjoyed some prominence, notably in the Pre- and early-Dynastic periods, during the Hyksos interlude of the Second Intermediate Period and during the Ramesside era of the 19th and 20th Dynasties. Whilst previous authors have devoted some scholarship to these various aspects of Seth there have been very few attempts to bring all these together and to demonstrate that rather than being something of an 'outsider' to the Egyptian pantheon, he actually had an important role within it, and as such was continually worshipped throughout ancient Egyptian history. In sum, the author examines the role of Seth as he was perceived by the Ancient Egyptians at specific times throughout their history. To achieve this aim a chronological approach is taken beginning with Seth's role in Predynastic Egyptian religion and then progressing through the early Dynastic and Old Kingdom, the FirstIntermediate period and the Middle Kingdom, the Second Intermediate Period, the New Kingdom, the Third Intermediate Period, the Late Period, and culminating with the Graeco-Roman Period up to the death of Cleopatra.
