Marmor Numidicum, also known as Giallo antico, is one of the best known and most widespread colored marbles of antiquity, and was quarried in Simitthus, today Chimtou in Tunisia. The present study is a holistic interdisciplinary approach to marmor Numidicum and combines the results from different research disciplines. The basis is a collection of archaeological material for the recording of the spectrum of use and the distribution of the marble in the Mediterranean area from the 2nd century B.C. to the 3rd century A.D. Based on this dataset, conclusions are drawn in a diachronic perspective both on the marble extraction and chronology in the quarries and on the urban genesis as well as the use and distribution range of the marble. The results are correlated by means of comparisons with administrative structures and questions of ownership, too. The study presents a periodization and localization of all variants of the marble to their extraction areas, considering archaeometric analyses of samples from the quarries for the first time in research. Another aspect concerns the role of marmor Numidicum within ancient trade systems. In order to get closer to these perspectives, questions about extraction, actors in trade networks, transport and logistic issues are comparatively analyzed with the help of the spectrum of use and distribution in diachronic evaluations and contextualized in case studies with the model of the chaîne opératoire. Theories and models from New Institutions Economics are discussed, too. Regarding the use of the local marble, the study yielded the result that the city of Simitthus and its quarries formed an entangled unit over the periods studied. Thus, for one of the most important colored marbles of antiquity a single study is now available.

Bibliographic Information and Reviews

This volume of the International Conference held in Athens in 2017, jointly organised by the German Archaeological Institute and the École Française d‘Athènes, brings together for the first time a cross-section of current research on ancient Phokis.
As a region in the heart of ancient Greece, Phokis was of central importance for transport and travel. Politically and culturally, it was therefore often exposed to the interests and influences of neighbouring powers. A considerable number of mostly small poleis shaped the political landscape. In Delphi and Abai (Kalapodi), two oracles exercised an early impact far beyond the borders of the country. A substantial amount of recent fieldwork has contributed significantly to expanding our picture of ancient Phokis. The 32 papers collected in this volume cover the time span from the Iron Age to the Early Byzantine period. They address topics ranging from historical issues to settlement archaeology, sacred topography, material culture and the architectural design of the sanctuaries; from analyses of individual matters and broad material genres, to enquiries into aspects of a particular ›Phokian‹ identity. Thus, for the first time, a broad overview of the previous research tradition, desiderata, and new perspectives for future research into ancient Phokis is provided.

Open Access Journal: Gallia

 [First posted in AWOL 8 December 2009, updated 20 June 2024]

Gallia
eISSN - 2109-9588
https://journals.openedition.org/gallia/custom/sitename.png
Créée en 1942 par le CNRS, Gallia est la revue de référence de l’archéologie nationale. Son champ chronologique couvre la Protohistoire, depuis le premier âge du Fer, l’Antiquité et l’Antiquité tardive jusqu’à la fin des royaumes mérovingiens. Son champ géographique est celui de l’ancien espace « gaulois », correspondant aux provinces romaines des Trois Gaules, de la Narbonnaise et des Germanies, ainsi que les territoires immédiatement limitrophes qui participent à leur destinée. En ce sens, Gallia accueille des articles, en français ou en anglais, sur des sites ou des découvertes majeures en France, mais aussi dans les pays voisins si leur intérêt concerne la Gaule en général.
La revue est soutenue par le ministère de la Culture et le CNRS.
Created in 1942 by the National Center for Scientific Research, Gallia is the leading journal in the field of French archaeology. The journal publishes in-depth articles about ancient Gaul, from the Early Iron Age, Antiquity to the end of the Merovingian kingdoms. The geographical field encompasses the former Gallic space: the Roman provinces of the Tres Gallia (Three Gauls), the Narbonensis, the Germanies, as well as immediately bordering territories which participate in their fate. The journal welcomes articles, written in English or French, on sites or major discoveries in France but also in the nearby countries.
The Journal is supported by the French Ministry of Culture and the National Center for Scientific Research.
