The volume presents 20 contributions from two colloquia held as part of the DAAD Southern European Dialogue in Göttingen in June 2022 and Palermo in October 2022 under the direction of the editors and Aurelio Burgio. An introduction by the editors is followed by papers on an overview of demography and archaeology, methods and problems of archaeological proxy data for population dynamics, archaeological demography north and south of the Alps, a diachronic comparison of early populations, three case studies on the demography of Sicily, population estimates for Boeotia, and Attic funeral reliefs as a source for the demography of Athens. Other topics include extra-urban settlement structures and demography, demographic change in Lycia, the research project "Roman Empire of 2000 cities", population numbers and proportions in Republican colonies in Italy, the demography of Roman rural landscapes, the demographic crisis in Early Medieval Northern France, the demography of Halaesa and its surrounding area, the population of Soluntum in the 6th/5th century B.C., and the demography of the Carini Plain in the Late Roman and Byzantine periods.
The cultural and historical significance of the Laurion as well as its exceptional position as one of the major sources of silver, lead and other mineral resources in the eastern Mediterranean since the Early Bronze Age have repeatedly been invoked in numerous publications. In a field such as mining archaeology, scientific progress can only be achieved through interdisciplinary cooperation. With its abundant material remains, the Laurion offers particularly good research conditions for the collaboration between the natural sciences and the humanities. Based on funding by the German Research Foundation [DFG], an international conference on "Ari and the Laurion form Prehistoric to Modern Times" was held in Bochum in November 2019. Speakers form Europe and form Australia presented new research results on Laurion in 23 lectures. Eleven of these are published here, while other contributions are especially written for this volume. Topics address the history of exploration from prehistoric to modern times as well as the entire range of research activities in the Laurion, starting from geoscience and material sciences to history, field archaeology and archaeometallurgy.
Circular enclosures [Kreisgrabenanlagen] or rondels have raised the interest of archeologists for more than a century. During the past two decades they received intensified attention in the media and wider public as "solar observatories" or "calendrical monuments". After conferences at Goseck [2004] and Heldenberg [2005], the time was ripe for another workshop combining recent research with fresh ideas. This took place online in 2022 as part of the research project Constructed Knowledge of Free University Berlin. The present volume contains 21 out of 30 papers presented there. Topics include new hypotheses and research on rondels in general, an overview of the FUB research project, site studies based on excavation, survey, in situ pXRF, experimental reconstruction, and Bayesian modelling at places such as Velm, Hornsburg I, Eggendorf am Walde, Niederleis, Rechnitz, Schletz, Heldenberg [A], Hradec Králové [CZ], Goseck, Kyhna, Quedlinburg I, Ippesheim, Hopferstadt, and in North Rhine-Westphalia [D]. Additionally, there are studies on visual characteristics and orientation patterns of rondels, their aptitude as venues of processions, and on burial customs of the Western Lengyel Culture.

Other topics are an early profane stone building at Brandenburg, historical city landscapes, a gateau of 1942, Lübeck and the "Bristol Story", Luther's doctrine in private houses at Lüneburg, the infrastructure at Constance, the first shipwreck at Lübeck, the storehouse at Lübeck-Untertrave 98, the city archaeology of Ulm, the fruit farm Semiramis at Lübeck, a stone building on the River Trave, archaeology in the countryside around Lübeck, Medieval viticulture in Cologne, Wissembourg in Alsace, Medieval timber cellars at Deventer, the farmyard of St. Mary at Lemgo, Herford Abbey, and the rise of Visby.
The Zurich excavations in Spina [2008-2017] brought to light several settlement phases from the end of the 6th to the end of the 4th century B.C. The present volume is dedicated to the remains of the most recent phase, a house destroyed during a military conflict and its completely preserved inventory of the 4th century B.C. In addition to the evaluation of the architectural remains, the findings are also presented in their entirety, focusing on the so-called utilitarian pottery, which has hardly been considered in research to date. Based on the analysis of the findings, conclusions are drawn about the organisation of the household as well as the consumer behaviour and the social position of the inhabitants. In addition, the function, typological development, method of production, chronological development and origin of the ceramic findings are examined. The investigations in Spina, historically the most important trading centre on the Italian Adriatic coast, have added new data on the material and social network in the Mediterranean to the previously only sparsely documented 4th century B.C. in the Po Valley. Thanks to the excellent preservation conditions and the undisturbed features, the study makes an important contribution to the chronological classification and typological development of Etruscan pottery and the settlement system of this period.
La Bourgogne méridionale, située entre Dijon et Lyon, compte parmi les régions paléolithiques les plus importantes de France depuis les travaux pionniers du XIXe siècle vers la roche de Solutré. Cependant, la région située entre la Saône et la Loire est longtemps restée dans l'ombre d'autres espaces, comme la Dordogne ou l'Ardèche. Sous la direction d'Harald Floss, la Bourgogne du Sud a pu devenir, au cours des 25 dernières années, une région de référence du Paléolithique européen grâce à des recherches continues. Avec plus de 50 contributions de chercheurs de renommée internationale, le présent ouvrage de 860 pages richement illustré est un jalon indispensable de la recherche paléolithique dans l'est de la France et l'expression centrale de ces longues années d'études. Des contributions de résultats importants provenant de régions voisines, comme le Jura, la Haute-Saône ou le Beaujolais, complètent l'éventail des travaux. D'un point de vue chronologique, la phase de transition entre les derniers Néandertaliens et le premier Homo sapiens à venir en Europe est au premier plan de l'intérêt. Située sur l'axe central des fleuves Rhin, Saône et Rhône qui traversent l'Europe, la zone de travail se trouve à la charnière entre l'Europe centrale, méridionale et occidentale. La région se caractérise par une densité inhabituelle d'ossements de Néandertaliens, qui sont analysés dans cette publication de manière aussi détaillée que la question de la transition immédiate entre le Paléolithique moyen et le Paléolithique supérieur, avec l'étude du MtA, du Châtelperronien et de l'Aurignacien. Outre des contributions sur la géologie, la géomorphologie, le paléo-environnement et la pertinence de la cartographie des sites, un point fort de l'ouvrage est consacré aux études lithiques, les analyses de matières premières intégrant la région dans un réseau plus large. Le Gravettien présente un ensemble de sites particulièrement dense, où nous pouvons reconnaître un modèle systématique d'utilisation de l'espace. Enfin, les expressions symboliques avec la parure et l'art constituent un point fort particulier. Les découvertes de l'art pariétal paléolithique à Rully et de l'exemplaire unique d'une cuillère en ivoire décorée de Saint-Martin-sous-Montaigu, dans la tradition technologique des célèbres figurines en ivoire du Jura souabe, sont par exemple d'une importance suprarégionale. Dans sa systématique méthodique, la présente publication sert sans aucun doute de guide pour montrer comment des régions moins bien étudiées peuvent entrer au centre d'intérêt.
This volume offers new insights from economic and social history, with a focus on the area between the Alps and the Adriatic. Alongside results from an analysis of written sources, it is in particular work with coinage and papyrological studies on papyri from Egypt that afford insights into daily life and economic life in the Roman Empire. In addition, new studies on diverse kinds of small finds and archaeological artefacts also provide information on questions of social and economic history. The contributions have been written by internationally renowned ancient scholars. Geographically, they cover the area between the Alps and the Adriatic, including Egypt and Asia Minor. They have therefore been written in German, English and Italian.
