Frances Berdan

Author of Aztec Archaeology and Ethnohistory

I like being able to offer the reader insights into the big

picture of Aztec civilization, alongside glimpses of the more

personal, individual side of Aztec life. All in one book.

To arrive at this point, I have spent the past 45+ years

researching in historical archives, at archaeological sites, in

Mexican villages, and in the depths of museum storerooms …

endlessly fascinating, fun, and enlightening.

Yannis Hamilakis

Author of Archaeology and the Senses

The Archaeology and the Senses brings together two broad areas

of research that interest me for a long time: the body on the one

hand, and the socio-politcs of the past and the genealogy of

archaeology on the other. It is also a statement on the links between

sensoriality, matter, and experience, which I hope will resonate with

concerns in many other fields beyond archaeology, as well as with

contemporary art and performance.

Brian Hayden

Author of The Power of Feasts

Feasting is pivotal in understanding many past cultural developments

but has been neglected or undertheorized up until recently. This is a

landmark book that provides the first major synthesis of what we

know about ethnic feasting, archaeological evidence of feasting,

and why all of this is important.

Lithic Technological Systems and Evolutionary TheoryEdited by Nathan GoodaleHamilton College, New York

This collection of essays brings together several different evolutionary perspectives to demonstrate how lithic technological systems are a by-product of human behavior. The essays cover a range of topics, including human behavioral ecology, cultural transmission, phylogenetic analysis, macroevolution, and various applications of evolutionary ecology.

‘Like a biface, this useful book about stone tool analysis has three sides, describing three evolutionary approaches to lithic assemblages: selectionist, human behavioral ecology and cultural transmission. Those lithic analysts interested in the application of evolutionary theory must read this book, and all the others should read it.’Robert L. Kelly, University of Wyoming

KEY REFERENCE

The Cambridge World PrehistoryEdited by Colin RenfrewUniversity of Cambridge

and Paul Bahn

The Cambridge World Prehistory provides a systematic and authoritative examination of the prehistory of every region around the world from the early days of human origins in Africa two million years ago to the beginnings of written history, which in some areas started only two centuries ago. Written by a team of leading international scholars, the volumes include both traditional topics and cutting-edge approaches, such as archaeolinguistics and molecular genetics, and examine the essential questions of human development around the world. The volumes are organised geographically, exploring the evolution of hominins and their expansion from Africa, as well as the formation of states and development in each region of different technologies such as seafaring, metallurgy and food production. The Cambridge World Prehistory reveals a rich and complex history of the world. It will be an invaluable resource for any student or scholar of archaeology and related disciplines looking to research

The Cambridge Companion to the Age of AttilaEdited by Michael MaasRice University, Houston

This book considers the great cultural and geopolitical changes in western Eurasia in the fifth century CE. It focuses on the Roman Empire, but also examines the changes taking place in northern Europe, in Iran under the Sasanian Empire, and on the great Eurasian steppe. Attila is presented as a contributor to, and a symbol of, these transformations.

‘This work is transformational. Although focused on the Roman Empire, it also encompasses Eurasia, including the geopolitical dilemmas of Iran. Systematic treatment of subjects ranging from law and learning to climate change and mass migration serves to calibrate the Huns’ impact and identifies a shift in the stance of classical civilizations toward steppe peoples, from aloofness to fertile interaction.’Jonathan Shepard, University of Oxford

The Roman ForumA Reconstruction and Architectural GuideGilbert J. GorskiUniversity of Notre Dame, Indiana

and James E. PackerNorthwestern University, Illinois

The Roman Forum was in many ways the heart of the Roman Empire. Today, the Forum exists in a fragmentary state, having been destroyed and plundered by barbarians, aristocrats,



citizens and priests over the past two millennia. Enough remains, however, for archaeologists to reconstruct its spectacular buildings and monuments. This richly illustrated volume provides an architectural history of the central section of the Roman Forum during the Empire (31 BCE–476 CE), from the Temple of Julius Caesar to the monuments on the slope of the Capitoline hill. Bringing together state-of-the-art technology in architectural illustration and the expertise of a prominent Roman archaeologist, this book offers a unique reconstruction of the Forum, providing architectural history, a summary of each building’s excavation and research, scaled digital plans, elevations, and reconstructed aerial images that not only shed light on the Forum’s history but vividly bring it to life. With this book, scholars, students, architects and artists will be able to visualize for the first time since antiquity the character, design and appearance of the famous heart of ancient Rome.2015 228 x 304 mm 474pp 60 b/w illus. 247 colour illus. 978-0-521-19244-6 Hardback

The Cambridge Prehistory of the Bronze and Iron Age MediterraneanEdited by A. Bernard KnappUniversity of Glasgow

and Peter van DommelenBrown University, Rhode Island

The Cambridge Prehistory of the Bronze and Iron Age Mediterranean offers new insights into the material and social practices of many different Mediterranean peoples during the Bronze and Iron Ages, presenting in particular those features that both connect and distinguish them. Contributors discuss in depth a range of topics that motivate and structure Mediterranean archaeology today, including insularity and connectivity; mobility, migration, and colonization; hybridization and cultural encounters; materiality, memory, and identity; community and household; life and death; and ritual and ideology. The volume’s broad coverage of different approaches and contemporary archaeological practices will help practitioners of Mediterranean archaeology to move the subject forward in new and dynamic ways. Together, the essays in this volume shed new light on the people, ideas, and materials that



make up the world of Mediterranean archaeology today, beyond the borders that separate Europe, Africa, and the Middle East.

‘A magnificently multi-faceted, intellectually challenging collection of scholarly voices and interpretations that matches the complexity and dynamism of the Bronze and Iron Age Mediterranean itself. This book will be a stimulus to fresh thinking in and beyond the Middle Sea for many years to come, as well as an ideal point of access for the less familiar.’Cyprian Broodbank, John Disney Professor of Archaeology, University of Cambridge

TEXTBOOK

The Art and Archaeology of Ancient GreeceJudith M. BarringerUniversity of Edinburgh

This richly illustrated, four-colour textbook introduces the art and archaeology of ancient Greece, from the Bronze Age through the Roman conquest. Emphasizing context and function, Barringer explores the purpose and use of buildings and objects within their particular time and place, leading students to a rich sociohistorical understanding of Greek art.

Advance praise: ‘This book is a superb resource for students and teachers of ancient Greek art specifically and the ancient Greek world as a whole. Barringer strikes an ideal balance between brevity and depth, leaving just enough room between the sentences for dialogue, discussion, and discourse. No mere survey, this important new text goes out of its way to problematize traditional narratives and point to the hidden riches and complexities of the field.’Peter Schultz, Concordia College, Moorhead, Minnesota

Art and Society in Cyprus from the Bronze Age into the Iron AgeJoanna S. SmithPrinceton University, New Jersey

This study emphasizes the placement and scale of images and how they reveal the development of economic and social control at Kition from its establishment in the thirteenth century BCE until the development of a centralized form of government by the Phoenicians, backed by the Assyrian king, in 707 BCE.

‘Perhaps the greatest contribution of this study is the development of a new Iron Age chronology for Cyprus, which has significant implications for the history of early Cyprus and will surely be adopted by future scholars. Although thoroughly grounded in a careful reading of the material record, the book’s great strength comes from Smith’s ability to contextualize details within the broader historical record by seeking to understand the people and their lives, thoughts and actions.’American Journal of Archaeology

Roman Imperialism and Civic PatronageForm, Meaning, and Ideology in Monumental Fountain ComplexesBrenda LongfellowUniversity of Iowa

In this book, Brenda Longfellow examines one of the features of Roman Imperial cities, the monumental civic fountain. These fountains were imposing

in size, frequently adorned with grand sculptures. Dr Longfellow situates each of these examples within its urban environment and investigates the edifice as a product of an individual patron and a particular historical and geographical context.

‘Through an exhaustive and accurate review of archaeological, literary and numismatic evidence, Longfellow has demonstrated the tremendous importance of emperors in the dialectic exchange between local communities, local patrons and their rulers.’Bryn Mawr Classical Review

Material Culture and Social Identities in the Ancient WorldEdited by Shelley HalesUniversity of Bristol

and Tamar HodosUniversity of Bristol

In a series of case studies, an international team of archaeologists and art historians considers how various aspects of material culture can be used to explore complex global and local identity structures across the



geographical and chronological span of antiquity.

‘Most essays feature useful, capable presentations of the history and context of the subjects at hand, and all of them – especially given the omnipresence of identity these days – should be required reading for a modern understanding of how these particular examples of material culture can (or cannot) be theorized.’The Classical Review

The Roman Imperial Mausoleum in Late AntiquityMark J. JohnsonBrigham Young University, Utah

Constructed between c.AD 244 and 450 and bridging the transition from paganism to Christianity within the empire, these important buildings shared a common design. Mark Johnson examines the symbolism and function of the mausolea, demonstrating that these monuments served as temples and shrines to the divinized emperors.

‘Mark Johnson’s book offers a valuable and up-to-date survey of extant and otherwise attested Roman imperial mausolea from Augustus to Honorius. This accessible and informative study should be the first stop for scholars

and students interested in pursuing further analysis of Late Roman imperial funerary monuments.’American Journal of Archaeology

Art in the Hellenistic WorldAn IntroductionAndrew StewartUniversity of California, Berkeley

This textbook offers a new thematic, contextualized, and richly illustrated approach to Hellenistic art for advanced undergraduate and pre-MA students in art history, classics, history, and humanities. Helpful ancillary features include maps, excerpts from Hellenistic literature, appendices, a glossary, a timeline, biographies of key figures, and suggestions for further reading.

‘Arranging his material with far-reaching originality by key preoccupations in Hellenistic art – power, victory, benefaction, prowess, wisdom, piety, desire, luxury, difference and death – Stewart brilliantly contextualizes and analyzes its wealth. He offers a fascinating and reliable study for our times and beyond, wearing his magisterial learning lightly and wittily.’Graham Zanker, University of Canterbury, New Zealand

Vase Painting, Gender, and Social Identity in Archaic AthensMark D. Stansbury-O’DonnellUniversity of St Thomas, Minnesota

This study explores the phenomenon of spectators through a database built from a census of the Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum, which reveals that the figures flourished in Athenian vase painting during the last two-thirds of the sixth century BCE.

‘This book will stimulate graduate students and scholars interested in the viewing and reading not just of Athenian pottery but of the ancient visual arts in general. While the author notes that his work is only the beginning, he addresses figures that often have been neglected, thus demonstrating the possibility that they have something to tell us about the ancient world. In short, Stansbury-O’Donnell has given us new and vital directions to explore in the study of decorated pottery.’American Journal of Archaeology

The Mythology of Kingship in Neo-Assyrian ArtMehmet-Ali AtaçBryn Mawr College, Pennsylvania

The relief slabs that decorated the palaces of the Neo-Assyrian Empire, which emphasized military conquest and royal prowess, have traditionally been understood as statements of imperial propaganda that glorified the Assyrian king. Here, Mehmet-Ali Ataç argues that the reliefs hold a deeper meaning that was addressed primarily to an internal audience composed of court scholars and master craftsmen.

‘There is much in this book that ancient and art historians will find of interest. The method of analyzing Assyrian art in the light of the wide body of textual sources and comparative mythology is most welcome.’Bryn Mawr Classical Review

Climate Change and the Course of Global HistoryA Rough JourneyJohn L. BrookeOhio State University

The first global study by a historian to fully integrate the earth-system approach of the new climate science with the material history of humanity.

‘Think of this as travel writing of the highest order. A rough journey for mankind becomes a stimulating armchair adventure for the reader. This is big history, framed by big ideas but anchored in the very recent explosion of knowledge about climate through the ages and about our history and prehistory. Brooke

38 Also of interest

skillfully navigates the interpretive hazards of proxy paleoclimate data. In Brooke’s persuasive account, our evolution to modernity is not absolutely determined by climate and disease, but it has been substantially influenced by them. Our new knowledge shows that quite often these influences abruptly change course, and Brooke shows that much of our history is a consequence of societies scrambling to adjust.’Mark A. Cane, G.
