Welcome

Welcome to the University of Exeter Press 2015 Distributed Presses

Catalogue. Here we present all titles from the presses we represent in

Europe and the Middle East. The focus of this catalogue is

archaeology relating to the Middle East and the Mediterranean.

Books on archaeological research in North America which have

been published by these presses have also been included, at the back

of the catalogue.

This catalogue highlights the forthcoming 2015 titles, including a

survey of the coastal town Pyla-Koutsopetria, a full archaeological and

pictorial presentation of the Temple of Ramesses II at Abydos and a

catalogue of Islamic artworks arranged thematically. Other recent

publications from 2014 are also highlighted; these include the

second massive volume on rock inscriptions in the Theban Desert

and the archaeological reports of several important sites in Egypt

and the Levant.

Pearls of Wisdom The Arts of Islam at the University of Michigan

By Christiane Gruber and Ashley Dimmig

ISBN: 978 0 9906623 0 3

128pp | £16.00

Paperback

Published by Kelsey Museum

Publications

This catalogue of a Kelsey Museum of Archaeology exhibition

showcases a selection of Islamic art works held in the University

of Michigan's collections. Rather than arranged chronologically,

geographically or by media, the objects are organized

thematically and conceptually. Themes include the intersections

between function and decoration, the aesthetic power of

everyday objects, visual play, wit and magic, connections and

interrelationships across art forms, and light symbolism and

illumination. The volume not only highlights the strengths of the

university's collections of Islamic art but also explores various

issues integral to the conception and production of art in the

Islamic world from the medieval period until the present day.

Land Tenure, Fiscal Policy and Imperial

Chicago Studies on the Middle East

This book aims to examine the structural changes in the state

and society in Mamluk Egypt and Syria after the middle of

the eighth/fourteenth century. Between 648/1250 and

922/1517, the Mamluk sultanate ruled Egypt, Syria and the

central Middle East. During this period, the sultanate

expanded its authority over the medieval Islamic world by

defending Muslim society against the Crusades, protecting

the holy cities of Mecca and Medina and reinstalling the

Abbasid caliphate in Cairo.

Pyla-Koutsopetria I

Archaeological Survey of an Ancient Coastal Town

Pyla-Koutsopetria I presents the results of an intensive pedestrian

survey documenting the diachronic history of a 100 ha

microregion along the southern coast of Cyprus. Located around

10 km from the ancient city of Kition, the ancient coastal

settlements of the Koutsopetria mircoregion featured an Iron Age

sanctuary, a Classical settlement, a Hellenistic fortification, a

Late Roman town and a Venetian-Ottoman coastal battery

situated adjacent to a now infilled, natural harbour on Larnaka

Bay. This publication integrates a comprehensive treatment of

methods with a discussion of artefact distribution, a thorough

catalogue of finds, and a diachronic history to shed light on one

of the few undeveloped stretches of the Cypriot coast.

Of all the enormous monuments throughout Egypt and Nubia that Ramesses II (the Great; ca.

1279-1212 BCE) left behind, his temple at Abydos, built early in his reign, stands as one of his

most elegant monuments, with its simple architectural layout and dramatic and graceful painted

relief scenes. Though best known for its dramatic reliefs depicting the battle of Kadesh, the

temple also offers a wealth of information about religious and social life in ancient Egypt. It

reflects, for example, the strenuous efforts of the early Ramessides to re-establish the Osiris cult in

Egypt–and particularly at Abydos–in the aftermath of the Amarna period.

Over a seven-year period, the authors of The Temple of Ramesses II in Abydos conducted a field

project with the aim of producing an up-to-date and comprehensive architectural, photographic

and epigraphic record of the temple.

Volume 1: Wall Scenes, contains more than two hundred detailed line drawings-accurately rendered

according to modern epigraphical standards-of the temple's carved relief scenes, placed alongside

their corresponding full-color photographs.

Volume 2: Pillars, Miscellany, and Inscriptions, contains additional elements of the temple, as well as

translations of the inscriptions found in the temple. The result is a masterpiece of modern

epigraphic research and publication.

The Economy of the Roman World

By Jean Andreau, Corina Kesler, Ellen Bauerle and David

Potter

ISBN: 978 0 9799713 5 8

175pp | £35.00

Hardback

Published by Michigan Classical

Press

The ancient economy has long been a hotly debated topic.

Did citizens of the ancient world understand markets? Did

they have economic policies? Did cities produce or consume?

What effect did the ager publicus have on production and

prices? Jean Andreau's latest volume on economic behaviour

in the Roman world investigates these questions and more.

Translated from the French, The Economy of the Roman World is

written for those new to ancient economic issues and also for

those curious about the broader context of artefacts, like

amphorae, glassware or the famous garum–fermented fish

sauce. All Greek and Latin terms are translated. Each chapter

is accompanied by translations of selected original

documents from across the Roman Empire.

Between 491 and 1191 AD, Cyprus was influenced by

various political and cultural centres that vied for

dominance in the Eastern Mediterranean. This collection

of essays primarily focuses on the island's archaeology

when it was governed by the Byzantine capital of

Constantinople. Greek and Orthodox Christian identity

was cultivated during this period, which provided a sense

of unity among the various provinces; and yet, the

surviving historical and archaeological data concerning

Cyprus is unique in that it expresses both local and regional

characteristics.

The author integrates historical maps, remote sensing data,

paleoenvironment from the New Kingdom to Late Roman

era. In the face of forces undermining many sites' integrity,

this study adapts techniques in landscape archaeology to an

Egyptian context, anticipating triage and salvage in the

decades to come.

Archaeological analysis at the regional scale investigates the

past by studying how people distributed themselves and their

activities across a landscape of hundreds or thousands of

square kilometres. Archaeological field survey methods

combine with powerful new quantitative tools for spatial

analysis to unleash new potential for identifying and studying

ancient local communities and regional polities. Varied

approaches to estimating regional population sizes in both

relative and absolute terms are synthesized and their attributes

assessed. Field survey methods developed around the world

are compiled and best practices for collecting archaeological

data to sustain demographic analysis are delineated.

Published by Lockwood Press

Carl Blegen is the most famous American archaeologist ever to

work in Greece, and no American has ever had a greater impact

on Greek archaeology. Yet Blegen, unlike several others of his

generation, has found no biographer. In part, the explanation for

this must lie in the fact that his life was so multifaceted: not only

was he instrumental in creating the field of Aegean prehistory,

but Blegen, his wife and their best friends, the Hills ('the family'),

were also significant forces in the social and intellectual

community of Athens. Authors who have contributed to this

book have each researched one aspect of Blegen's life. The result

is a biography that sets Blegen in the social and academic milieu

that gave rise to the discipline of classical archaeology in Greece.

George Frison and Dennis Stanford's Agate Basin

monograph is not only a classic of Plains Paleoindian

archaeology, but also of multidisciplinary research,

geoarchaeology, zooarchaeology and experimental

archaeology. Lucid presentation of meticulously excavated

and analysed sediments, bones and artefacts convey an

unmatched sense of the sights, sounds and smells of

Paleoindian life on the High Plains–from brutal winters and

blistering summers, to killing and butchering bison, and to

making lethal weaponry.

With his background in ranching and hunting, Frison knows

more about large animals than any other archaeologist. In The

Casper Site, Frison began to share that knowledge as well as

the techniques of bone bed excavation; that, and the book’s

interdisciplinary approach, makes it a landmark in

Paleoindian archaeology and faunal analysis.
