Abstract

In this volume of the “Forschungen in Ephesos” the recent archaeological examinations at the Theater of Ephesus are published. Beside the results of the excavations the volume incorporates the analysis of the various find categories, such as pottery and glass, terracotta, sculptures, small finds, coins as well as archaeozoological and epigraphical finds. With this, the reader can comprehensively impart and review the architectural development of the theater in the course of the eight building or usage phases.

Mit dem vorliegenden Band werden die Befunde der jüngsten archäologischen Untersuchungen am Theater von Ephesos und ihre Auswertung im archäologischen Kontexte publiziert. Angeschlossen ist die Vorlage der unterschiedlichen Fundgattungen, wie Keramik- und Glasfunde, Terrakotten, Skulpturen, Kleinfunde, Münzen und archäozoologische Funde, ergänzt durch neue epigraphische Zeugnisse.

Abstract

Why did human beings first begin to write history? Lisa Irene Hau argues that a driving force among Greek historians was the desire to use the past to teach lessons about the present and for the future. She uncovers the moral messages of the ancient Greek writers of history and the techniques they used to bring them across. Hau also shows how moral didacticism was an integral part of the writing of history from its inception in the 5th century BC, how it developed over the next 500 years in parallel with the development of historiography as a genre and how the moral messages on display remained surprisingly stable across this period. For the ancient Greek historiographers, moral didacticism was a way of making sense of the past and making it relevant to the present; but this does not mean that they falsified events: truth and morality were compatible and synergistic ends.

Short Archaeological Wordlist in English, Sudani Arabic and Nobiin

Short Archaeological Wordlist in English, Sudani Arabic and Nobiin 
Compiled by Helmut Satzinger
With a foreword by Julia Budka

 Every archaeologist working in northern Sudan has experienced this: puzzled looks by Nubian workmen addressed with some obviously un- comprehensive instructions and, vice- versa, confusion because the workmen are speaking something very difficult to understand... well – in the Land of the Mahas people, Nobiin is of course frequently found at archaeological excavations! This may therefore cause quite some problems, especially for excavators used to learn the colloquial language ‘on site’ in various regions, e.g. in Upper Egypt. 

With my background of excavating in Egypt since 1997 and starting work on Sai Island in 2011, I quickly noted down as my personal wish to assimi- late new vocabulary necessary for the work in northern Sudan. Back in my first season, I even had problems with such basics as addressing my beloved and numerous pottery sherds for the workmen because fukh
r was not un- derstandable for all. To support a better mutual understanding, I was thinking about how useful a swift vocabulary list could be for checking basic archae- ological terms needed in fieldwork, not only in the local Sudani Arabic, but also in Nobiin. During the European Research Council AcrossBorders project and its field seasons on Sai Island from 2013 to 2017, this wish for such a wordlist became eventually more structured and received some outlines...

Neo-Babylonian Cuneiform Corpus (NaBuCCo)

[First posted in AWOL 27 September 2015, updated 26 January 2018]

Neo-Babylonian Cuneiform Corpus (NaBuCCo)

The Neo-Babylonian Cuneiform Corpus (NaBuCCo) aims at making available the large corpus of archival documents from first millennium BCE Babylonia to historians of the ancient world in general and Assyriologists in particular.

NaBuCCo is a text-oriented website that aims at putting online textual metadata of an estimated 20,000 published Babylonian documentary sources including legal, administrative and epistolary records. These documents have been created between roughly 800 and the end of the pre-Christian era and primarily originate from the five large cities of Mesopotamia during that time: Babylon, Borsippa, Nippur, Sippar and Uruk along with their agrarian hinterland. The website collects all meta-textual data from the sources, paraphrases their content, makes the data available online, and links them (via partner websites) to the original source documents from which they are extracted.
In addition to the text catalogue, the project offers a comprehensive up-to-date bibliography on Babylonia in the first millennium BCE.

We hope that the project will benefit the research community. Indeed, the database with its advanced search tool, interlinked pages and extensive bibliography will enable scholars from within the field of Assyriology and also from other historical fields from all over the world to work with a comprehensive collection of Babylonian texts for their own research projects.

Website Attica: Enhancing Persons of Ancient Athens

Website Attica

Website Attica complements and enhances the published volumes of Persons of Ancient Athens. The addenda et corrigenda to the published volumes, which are issued as a supplement to PAA periodically, are regularly updated at this web site. Searches may be made 10,000 names of the ATHENIANS database in beta, gamma, and delta (second half of volume 4, the whole of volume 5, and the first third of volume 6). The possible searches range from selecting every person in a particular deme or of a specified profession to more sophisticated searches, e.g. to find all Athenians who lived between specified years and/or are related to a certain person and/or are attested in a class of document, etc.

The results of searches give an up-to-date version of the data in the printed volume (the 'formatted version'), now with transliterated Greek texts. The search form is divided into fields similar to those in the computer database; these do not always correspond exactly to the position in which the information appears in the formatted version. The fields shown in the search form are detailed below, with a summary of the database information from the 'Description of Entries' appearing in each of the printed volumes, together with additional information about the contents of each field to help in the defining of search terms. Access to the printed volumes of PAA is desirable, both for understanding this section and for the formulation of search requests.
