Hospitaller Castles and Fortifications in the Kingdom of Jerusalem, 1136-1291
This paper presents a historical and archaeological overview of the castles and other fortifications built and occupied by the Order of the Hospital of St John in the Kingdom of Jerusalem between 1136, when the order acquired the castle of Bayt Jibrīn, and the final Mamluk siege of Acre in 1291, during which it defended a section of the city walls. Topics discussed include the order’s contribution to the defence of towns and cities in which they …

Jerusalem 1099
On 15 July 1099, after more than four and a half centuries of Muslim rule, Jerusalem fell to the army of the First Crusade and for the next 88 years it became once again a Christian city. At that time, the city’s population may have numbered hundreds rather than the thousands of earlier periods, but it seems to have grown afterwards. The size of the late 12th century population may therefore have been closer to that of the mid-11th century, perha…

Four Frankish gravestones from medieval Ephesus
This paper presents and discusses four Latin tombstones relating to Italian residents of medieval Ephesus that have been recovered from properties on the terrace of Ayasuluk (Selçuk), near the Byzantine Church of St John the Evangelist. Two of them, dating from the late 14th century, were originally published in 1937, while the other two, from the mid- 15th century, came to light more recently in January 2017

The identification of the medieval church of St Sabas in Jerusalem in the light of new documentary evidence
For over a century the church that the Greek monks of Dayr Mar Saba are known to have possessed inside the walls of Jerusalem in the twelfth century has usually been associated with a chapel surviving inside the Disy family house opposite the police barracks south of the Citadel, while the Zāwiyyat al-Shaykh Yaʿqūb (Yaʿqūbiyya), on the east side of Christ Church, has been identified as having originally been built in the twelfth century, possibly…

Gothic architecture in the Holy Land and Cyprus
Some 90 years ago Camille Enlart was able to identify certain antecedants in 13th-century Acre for the style of Gothic architecture that blossomed in Famagusta almost a century later. Recent research in Syria–Palestine and in Cyprus has been able to put more flesh on the bones of this proposition, while also acknowledging the more up-to-date stimuli from the west that are also apparent in the architecture of Lusignan Cyprus.

The Crusader Cathedral of Tyre
The Crusader cathedral of Tyre, built in the twelfth century and destroyed by the Mamluks after 1291, was one of the largest and most prestigious ecclesiastical buildings in the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem. Although its above-ground remains were studied in the nineteenth century and its foundations fully excavated in the twentieth, no satisfactory plan has yet been published. A new survey of what little now remains was therefore undertaken in May …
The Medieval Parish Churches of the Isle of Bute
An Old Pentagonal Fort Built of Stone’
In advance of a programme of conservation and restoration at Fort Charlotte, Lerwick, Shetland, all the gun positions (platforms and embrasures) along the seaward battery wall were accurately surveyed and archaeologically excavated. The work took place over three seasons, in 1993, 1994 and 1996. This paper reviews the documented history of the fort together with the archaeological evidence, in order to produce a structural history for the develop…
The discovery of medieval deposits beneath the Earl's Palace, Kirkwall, Orkney
Discusses the 1982 archaeological investigations below the tennis courts and walls of the seventeenth-century palace which revealed a range of medieval features and deposits probably associated with the earlier Bishop's Palace or Palace of the Yards. A major find of the excavations was a wooden Scandinavian-type comb and it is suggested that it may have been brought from Trondheim in Norway in the thirteenth century (given the close connection be…

Rothesay Castle and the Stewarts
The stone castle was probably begun in the first quarter of the 13th century by Alan, the king's steward, or his son, Walter. Bute had only recently been wrested from the kingdom of Man and the Isles, whose overlord, King Håkon IV of Norway, sent two expeditions to retake it in 1230 and 1263. When Bute returned to Scottish control in 1266, the castle was strengthened by the addition of four rounded projecting towers and a gatehouse facing the sea…

Qal c at Jiddin
(Res.d'A.). Survey of Qal'at Jiddin, in Western Galilee, has elucidated its main phases of construction. Built on an abandoned khirba by the Teutonic Order, probably in the 1220s or 1230s, the first castle, with two massive towers set withn a high encircling wall, conforms more to the layout of contemporary Rhineland castles than to other Crusader examples. In the eighteenth century the castle was refortified with two outer walls of enclosure, an…

The planning of some pilgrimage churches in Crusader Palestine
Work began in 1979 on the compilation of a new corpus of all church buildings in the former Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem. This paper takes one class of these, the pilgrimage church, and investigates the effect of site and function on the planning of buildings required to meet the needs both of visiting pilgrims and of resident religious communities unwilling to suffer disruption of their rituals. The biblical associations of the holy places, freque…

The Red Tower
A Group of Medieval Towers in Tuscania
Although the main purpose of this article has been that of presenting as full and objective an account as possible of the surviving medieval towers in Tuscania, believing that ‘facts’ rarely speak for themselves, I have attempted in the first two sections to set the building of the towers within the context of the social and political changes and topographical transformations that were taking place between the end of the tenth century and the end…

Thirteenth-Century Pottery From the Monastery of St. Mary of Carmel
The ruins of the thirteenth-century monastery of St. Mary of Carmel lie in the Wadi 'Ain as-Siyah, just above the 100 m. contour on the south-western flank of the Carmel range (Grid Ref.: 1477.2452; see Fig. d. The monastery owes its origin to a group of Latin hermits who settled near to the 'Ain as-Siyah, known then and now as the Spring of Elijah, around the turn of the twelfth and thirteenth centuries. Between 1206 and 1214 Albert, patriarch o…
