Il triennio e stato caratterizzato dello sviluppo di collaborazioni internazionali e dall'ampliamento delle ricerche, che hanno interessato varie zone dell'abitato di età romana (in particolare l'area del Teatro, il Santuario di Apollo, l'insula 104), della città bizantina (la Cattedrale, l'area del Martyrion e della collina di San Filippo), la Necropoli Nord, e si sono estese al territorio intorno a Hierapolis, con risultati molto importanti per la comprensione delle interazioni tra la città e la sua chora. Il volume rende conto delle ricerche multidisciplinari condotte nei diversi ambiti, dalle indagini archeometriche agli studi specifici sull'epigrafia, la numismatica, la produzione ceramica e scultorea di Hierapolis, illustra edifici finora inediti (Dodekatheon) e i risultati degli importanti progetti di conservazione del patrimonio monumentale della città avviati nel triennio 2004 -2 006.

Hierapolis di Frigia VIII 1-2 Le attivita delle Campagne di Scavo restauro, 2007-2011. 2 volumes set. L¿ottavo volume della serie ¿Hierapolis di Frigia¿ presenta i risultati delle attività di scavo e restauro condotte dalla Missione Archeologica Italiana nel periodo 2007-2011. Il quinquennio si è contraddistinto per lo sviluppo di molteplici collaborazioni internazionali, l¿avvio di importanti progetti di restauro e l¿ampliamento delle aree di indagine, che hanno interessato l¿abitato di età romana sia nella parte centrale (in particolare il Teatro, il Santuario di Apollo, l¿insula 104), che quella settentrionale (con la Porta di Frontino, il Ninfeo dei Tritoni, le Terme-Chiesa), estendendosi anche al settore meridionale finora poco indagato (scavi lungo la Via di Frontino e il Ginnasio). L¿intensificarsi delle indagini nel cuore dello spazio urbano ha quindi condotto alla scoperta del celebre Ploutonion, contribuendo ad un sostanziale arricchimento delle conoscenze sul sistema religioso di Hierapolis. Anche le ricerche sulle aree funerarie hanno visto un significativo approfondimento grazie a nuovi approcci interdisciplinari (analisi antropologiche e bioarcheologiche), sia nella Necropoli Nord (tomba 163d) che nella Necropoli Nord-Est e Sud-Ovest, mai prima oggetto di studi sistematici. Molto impegnative sono risultate anche le attività di ricerca sulle fasi di età bizantina, che si sono concentrate nell¿area della collina orientale: oltre allo scavo e consolidamento nelle Terme Ottagonali e nel Martyrion, si è potuta individuare la chiesa costruita intorno alla tomba dell¿Apostolo Filippo, fulcro di un complesso sistema rituale. Il volume rende inoltre conto delle ricerche multidisciplinari condotte nei diversi ambiti, dalle indagini sul popolamento del territorio in età protostorica, agli studi specifici sull¿epigrafia, la numismatica, la statuaria, le produzioni ceramiche, l¿architettura. Si illustrano infine i progetti di restauro condotti nel quinquennio (Porta di Frontino, Teatro, Ginnasio, Stoà di Marmo, Ponte di San Filippo). F.

Very Good Turkish Paperback. 4to. (27 x 20 m). In Turkish. 76 p. Some foxing on covers and pages, chipped on spine. Otherwise a good copy. First and only edition. Rafael Inchauspe Méndez, known as Rafael de Nogales Méndez was a Venezuelan soldier, adventurer and writer who served for the Ottoman Empire during the Great War (1914-18). He travelled extensively and fought in many of the wars of his age. When a young man his father sent him to study in Europe and he attended Universities in Germany, Belgium and Spain, and spoke several languages fluently. Despite his education, Nogales felt more attracted to the military profession and he began to travel where the news of war took him. He took part in several conflicts in the last part of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th: he fought for the Spanish against the Americans in the Spanish-American War. In 1902 with the support of president Zelaya of Nicaragua, Nogales participated in a failed attempt to overthrow Venezuelan dictator Cipriano Castro involving an expedition aboard the schooner La Libertad. The forces landed in La Guajira peninsula but were defeated by general Antonio Davila in Carazua as part of Revolución Libertadora of Venezuela. In 1904 participated in the Russo-Japanese War as double agent. Additionally, he spent time in Alaska during the time of the gold rush there. In California he fought with the forces of Mexican revolutionary Ricardo Flores Magón and also worked as a cowboy in Arizona. He returned to Venezuela in 1908, after the military coup of Juan Vicente Gómez that overthrew his enemy Cipriano Castro. Nogales was appointed by General Gómez as president of Apure State, however, he went into exile after making himself an enemy of the new president. When World War I began, after unsuccessfully attempting to join a number of other European armies, he enlisted in the Ottoman Army and was assigned to the Caucasus Front, where he reached the rank of major. He led gendarmerie troops during the siege of Van, but asked to be relieved due to what he believed were "unjustified massacres of Christians". He believed that the massacres were committed by Khahil Bey, the Commander and Chief of the Expeditionary Army he volunteered to serve. He later wrote a book describing his experiences with the Ottoman Army in World War I. Nogales Méndez reported that the civil authorities found it preferable to murder at night with the help of local Kurds. When visiting Aghtamar, an island in Lake Van where the Armenian Cathedral of the Holy Cross is located, he notes that he uncovered the corpses of many priests. Nogales Méndez visited Diyarbakir on June 26, 1915 and spoke with Mehmet Resid, who was the governor of the province. During his time in Diyarbakir, he witnessed the massacres of the local Christian population of the province. According to his conversation with Resid, the orders to massacre were sent from Interior Minister Talat Pasha. Nogales Méndez recounts in his memoirs that Resid mentioned to him that he received a telegram directly from Talat Pasha ordering him to "Burn-Destroy-Kill". After being transferred from the Caucasus, he saw action in the Sinai and Palestine Front. He fought in the Turkish lines during the entire war, and was awarded the Iron Cross by Kaiser Wilhelm II. After the war ended, he worked with the Nicaraguan revolutionary Augusto César Sandino. In London, Nogales wrote some books about his adventures around the world. In Venezuela he was appointed by General Gómez to study the Panamanian army, but later he died in Panama City in 1936. He wrote several books about his experiences, one of them is 'Cuatro anos bajo la Media Luna'. (Source: Wikipedia). This translation includes criticism under the name 'an answer'.

"The book includes the most important Antioch mosaic pavements displayed in the Hatay Archaeological Museum in Antakya, Turkey, seventeen different institutions in the USA and the Louvre. The mosaics were brought to light in and around Antioch on the Orontes (Antakya), Seleucia Pieria (Çevlik) and Daphne (Defne) in 1932-37. As a group, the Antioch mosaics demonstrate a remarkable continuity with the Hellenistic artistic tradition as seen in the preservation of classical subjects and decorative devices, such as the illusionistic treatment of the inhabited vine scrolls or ribbon borders. The common use of multiple borders to frame figural panels at Antioch is also reminiscent of the framing of Hellenistic emble-mata, or portable panels prepared in workshops and then inserted at the sites. The three-dimensional treatment of interiors and landscapes, the naturalistic representation of the human anatomy, and the variety of colors employed for the Antiochene compositions, indicate a dependence on painting styles. Such skill in the production of stone 'paintings' effectively denies the solidity of the floor and tricks the eye of the viewer, not to mention their physical relationship to the room itself. Finds from nearby sites (Apamea, Zeugma, Shahba-Philippopolis, and Palmyra) are similarly 'traditional' and point to the existence of a 'school' of eastern art beyond that of the Antiochene workshops. Such illusionism reaches the height of fashion during the Severan period in Antioch.".
