Fenster sind multifunktionale Bauteile, die sich sowohl nach Innen als auch nach Außen richten. Sie geben uns durch ihre Zahl, Größe und Art ihrer Verschlüsse wichtige Hinweise auf die Benutzungsarten und -zeiten der jeweiligen Räume, in denen sie angebracht sind. Darüber hinaus sind sie in der Lage zusammen mit dem decor eines Raumes eine Atmosphäre zu schaffen, in manchen Fällen sogar eine von der realen Welt entkoppelte Heterotopie.Zwar waren die Häuser und Thermen der Römer schon lange Gegenstand archäologischer Untersuchungen, doch blieb eine grundlegende Beschäftigung mit ihren Fenstern bisher aus oder sie erfolgte nur in einzelnen Aufsätzen. Das vorliegende Buch bündelt das Desiderat der Forschung und schließt bestehende Forschungslücken in Bezug auf deren Konstruktionen, Verschlüsse und Ausstattungselemente. Es zeichnet die Entwicklungsgeschichte dieses Bauteils über mehr als 500 Jahre Architekturgeschichte nach und berücksichtigt dabei nicht nur dessen pragmatische Funktionen, sondern auch seine kognitiv-sensualistischen.I.

This volume offers a comprehensive overview of the historical archaeology of Venezuela, marking the first time such a detailed study is available in both English and Spanish. It compiles the work of leading Venezuelan archaeologists and includes recent fieldwork and unpublished research, covering a wide range of case studies from precolonial times to the republican period.Structured in five parts, the book starts with a thorough review of the history of Venezuelan historical archaeological research, highlighting its contributions and future directions. The first section explores precolonial and contact period indigenous realities, while the second examines the indigenous experiences of colonialism, missionization, and landscape changes. The third section investigates the production of key Venezuelan commodities: coffee, sugar, salt, and contraband activities. The fourth section focuses on the archaeology of foundational cities like Coro, Santo Tomé, Maracaibo, and the development of Caracas. The fifth section looks at everyday life, including the rise of consumerism and the social practices surrounding death. An afterword emphasizes the importance of a critical historical approach in anthropology and archaeology.Richly illustrated and well-referenced, this book highlights the extensive and diverse historical archaeological research in Venezuela, offering new insights to both Spanish and non-Spanish-speaking scholars. It aims to influence historical archaeology in Latin America, the Caribbean, and globally with its bilingual presentation.

This edited volume was written on the occasion of the 33rd Congress of the Rei Cretariæ Romanæ Fautores (www.fautores.org), which was held in September 2024 in Leiden, and offers a status quaestionis of Roman pottery studies in the Netherlands and adjacent regions. A concise history introducing the discipline is followed by ten contributions ¿ centred around four concepts ¿ which are written by experts in their respective fields who discuss key aspects of Roman pottery studies. Many of the contributions are characterised by a diachronic viewpoint, and range from addressing the social and cultural significance of individual ceramic categories, to formative historical developments and regional syntheses. The book concludes by highlighting prospects for future research.The book is packed with detailed information on Roman pottery and focuses on fellow specialists, and rather is not an introduction on the study of Roman pottery. However, readers interested in learning how the study of pottery contributes to our understanding of Roman ways of life and the Roman presence in the Netherlands and surrounding regions can certainly find aspects to their linking.This publication will be presented at the 33rd Congress of the Rei Cretariæ Romanæ Fautores, in Leiden.ContentsIntroductionRoderick C.A.

This publication ¿ Supplying the Roman Empire ¿ is the fourth volume of the LIMES XXV¿s congress proceedings and deals with various aspects of the supply and provisioning of the Roman empire, and the role of the Roman armies housed on its fringes herein. The result is a wide-ranging collection of papers dealing with topics such as: finds of organic material; riverine and maritime supply and security; militarily controlled mining; building material procurement and processing; agro-political schemes and water management; military material culture. The proceedings are all arranged around the original sessions, trying to create coherent thematical collections that make the vast output more accessible to generalists and specialists alike.Frontiers are zones, or lines, of contact and coercion, of exchange and exclusion. As such they often express some of the most typical elements of the socio-political spaces that are defined by them. Spanning some 6,000 km along rivers, mountain ranges, artificial barriers and fringes of semi-desert, the frontiers of the Roman empire offer a wide variety of avenues and topics for a very diverse community of scholars. They are the central subject of the International Congress of Roman Frontier Studies (or just Limes Congress after the Latin word for ¿border¿), organised every three years since 1949. This four-volume publication contains most of the papers presented at the 25th edition which was hosted by the municipality of Nijmegen in August 2022.
