The long-term history of water infrastructure and cisterns on the First Hill of Byzantium
The First Hill of Byzantium, the Greek city’s Acropolis, was later the site of the Topkapı Sarayı. Within the 55ha enclosure of the Ottoman palace are the remains of the First and Second regions of the Byzantine city including the church of Hagia Eirene and the excavated traces of other churches and buildings, but commonest are the remains of at least 33 Byzantine cisterns. Based on previous documentation and more recent observations we aim to ex…
Re-examining the reused Roman masonry at Rubers Law hillfort
Antiquarian exploration of the archaeological features on Rubers Law (NGR: NT 58030 15567), a large hill in the Scottish Borders, found approximately 30 worked Roman stones on the summit of the hill. Based on the prominent location and visibility from the site, these stones led to the conclusion that there had been a Roman tower on the hill, despite a lack of further supporting evidence. In order to investigate the possibility of a Roman structur…
Financing a Revolution
This article explores the financial and geopolitical networks behind the independence of Gran Colombia. It shows that the failure to obtain official British government support for independence was compensated for by the development of a network of private individuals and partnerships that supplied large quantities of arms, equipment and men. A Colombian government document granting 'Powers' to London intermediaries was crucial to the construction…
Indigenous Borderlands
In Indigenous Borderlands, Joaquín Rivaya-Martínez brings together 11 scholars from across the United States, Mexico, Argentina, and the United Kingdom: Cynthia Radding, Geoffrey H. Wallace, Robbie Ethridge, Cuauhtémoc Velasco Ávila, Antonio Cruz Zárate, Chantal Cramaussel, Paul Conrad, Guillermo Wilde, Enrique Normando Cruz, Gary Van Valen, and Erick D. Langer. Rivaya-Martínez writes the introduction, a very useful “state of the field” chapter, …

Carbonates from the ancient world's longest aqueduct
The fourth‐ and fifth‐century aqueduct system of Constantinople is, at 426 km, the longest water supply line of the ancient world. Carbonate deposits i659ide an archive of both archaeological developments and palaeo‐environmental conditions during the depositional period. The 246‐km‐long aqueduct line from the fourth century used springs from a small aquifer, whereas a 180‐km‐long fifth‐century extension to the west tapped a larger aquifer. Altho…
Agricultural terraces in the Mediterranean
The history of agricultural terraces remains poorly understood due to problems in dating their construction and use. This has hampered broader research on their significance, limiting knowledge of past agricultural practices and the long-term investment choices of rural communities. The authors apply OSL profiling and dating to the sediments associated with agricultural terraces across the Mediterranean region to date their construction and use. …
Contested Nation
In seven clear and concise chapters, Pilar Herr weaves together a wide array of primary sources—official correspondence, consular reports, travel writing, documents on the parlamentos (peace negotiations), political constitutions, intellectual writings, newspapers, and more—to tell the history of Chilean state formation and how this affected and was affected by the Mapuche, “an umbrella term for several indigenous groups of Chile's southern front…
‘Still waters run deep’
The two large cities of the eastern Mediterranean, Constantinople and Alexandria, are known for the large number of ancient and medieval cisterns that are still preserved there. Based on the results of recent research projects carried out in these two cities, this article aims to provide a better knowledge of underground resources and to show how these contribute to shedding light on the urban history of Late Antiquity and of the later periods. T…

Photographic Encounters
In 1936, the indigenous Peruvian photographer Martín Chambi travelled to and exhibited his work in Chile. Using a transnational framework of historical analysis, this article explores the multiple meanings of his visit. In particular it underscores the involvement of the Chilean and Peruvian governments in this cultural encounter, and highlights some of the commonalities and connections, as well as differences, between the discourses of race that…

The Cry of the Renegade
Raymond Craib’s second monograph captures the reader’s attention right from the first line: ‘The body of the firecracker poet wound its way through central Santiago.’ It was 1 October 1920 and the ‘firecracker poet’ was twenty-four-year-old José Domingo Goméz Rojas. He had been arrested on charges of subversion in late July, along with many other university students. He spent two months in police custody and died shortly afterwards in Santiago’s …

Visibility analysis of the Roman communication network in southern Scotland
Water-supply infrastructure of Byzantine Constantinople
Modern water-supply systems — hidden beneath the ground, constructed, expanded, adapted and repaired intermittently by multiple groups of people — are often messy and difficult to comprehend. The ancient water-supply system we consider here is no different — and perhaps even more complex as it was developed over 1200 years and then had a modern city built on top. Despite this, we are beginning to understand how one of the Roman world's most impor…
Troubled Negotiations
This paper explores the complex, dynamic relationship that developed between the Mapuche and Chilean state authorities in the first decades following independence from Spain. The greater part of Mapuche society supported royalist forces during the independence wars, but there were also several leaders who allied themselves with the patriot insurgents and, after the latter's victory, entered into negotiations with the fledgling Chilean republic. T…
From Araucanian warriors to Mapuche terrorists
This article explores the complex, shifting intersections between gender, racial, and national identities in modern Chile. Focusing on the figure of the Araucanian warrior who famously defeated the Spanish conquistadors in the sixteenth century, it draws readers' attention to four transformative periods between the first declaration of Chilean independence and the bicentennial celebrations of that independence, and examines the contesting notions…
Imagining Modernity in the Andes - by Archibald, Priscilla
Water supply, B yzantine
The western hinterland of Constantinople contains some of the most remarkable monuments of ancient hydraulic engineering, as extensive as the aqueducts of Rome and longer than the aqueduct of Carthage.
Constantinople, Land Walls
The Theodosian Land Walls are among the most prominent surviving Late Antique monuments in modern Istanbul.
Long Wall (Wall of Anastasios)
The Long Wall of Thrace or the Wall of Anastasios was the most celebrated building achievement of the emperor Anastasios I (Haarer 2006: 106–9) and was the last and most monumental Roman barrier wall in Europe.

Procopius and Dara
The question of the degree of continuity in urban life from antiquity into later times has recently emerged as a preoccupation among scholars of the late antique and early medieval periods. Considerable attention is currently being devoted to the fate of the classical city and of the traditional patterns of urban life, with special reference to features such as reduction of physical area in individual cities, decline of population, changes in use…
Negotiating Inclusion in the Nation
This article examines the discourses of three Mapuche intellectuals–Manuel Manquilef, Manuel Aburto Panguilef and Venancio Coñuepán–all of whom played an important role in the creation and development of an indigenous rights movement in Chile. It emphasizes the diversity of Mapuche politics and intellectuality, mapping out the multiple ways in which Manquilef, Panguilef and Coñuepán confronted the state but also negotiated with it. Drawing on a w…

Mapuche Poetry in Post-Dictatorship Chile
Ruling the waters
Narrating the nation
This article explores the role of museums in the social construction of national memories and identities, focusing on Chile's Museo Histórico Nacional (National Historical Museum) and its representations of Mapuche history and culture. Created by state decree in 1911, the Museo Histórico Nacional is one of the most conservative museums in Chile; it is also the most prone to government intervention. The important changes undertaken since the museu…

Debates about Ethnicity, Class and Nation in Allende's Chile (1970-1973)
In 1964, Salvador Allende signed the 'Cautín Pact' with leftist Mapuche organisations in Temuco in which they pledged to support Allende's presidential campaign and he vowed to introduce important socio-economic reforms to benefit Mapuche communities and to respect their culture and religion. As has been argued in previous studies, there were limitations to the implementation of these reforms in practice. This article suggests, however, that even…
The Hellenistic and Byzantine Defences of Tocra (Taucheira)
The fortifications of the Hellenistic and Roman city of Tocra are over 2 km long (including the sea-wall) and comprise a curtain wall up to 2 m wide flanked by 31 rectangular towers. Three main structural phases were noted in the survey carried out in 1966 by David Smith: (1) Hellenistic walls of isodomic ashlar, (2) later Hellenistic work of isodomic ashlar with bevelled edges, associated with the indented trace along the south rampart, and (3) …

The Mapuche Museum of Cañete (1968-2010)
This article examines the history of the state-run Mapuche Museum of Cañete in southern Chile. It analyses its multiple and shifting representations of Mapuche culture and history in the context of broader changes in indigenous-state relations, and shows how the museum has both contributed to and been impacted by these changes. Focusing mainly on the conceptual and physical transformations undertaken since a Mapuche woman, Juana Paillalef, was ap…

The Byzantine Fortifications of Amastris in Paphlagonia
This article is chiefly concerned with the chronology of the Byzantine fortifications of Amastris, which are the subject of current research by the authors, but, in order to set the settlement at Amasra and its fortifications into their context in the Black Sea area, the present study must commence with a brief account of some aspects of the monuments and history of the city in the Hellenistic and Classical periods. The present Turkish town of Am…

The fortifications and water supply systems of Constantinople
An archaeological survey of the Thracian hinterland of Constantinople led by James Crow (Newcastle University) began in 1994 and its first stage is due for completion this year (2000). The main focus of the project over the past five years has been the Anastasian Wall, a 6th-century monumental linear fortification stretching some 56 km from the Black Sea to the Sea of Marmara and situated c. 65 km from the city itself. In places the Wall survives…

The Infrastructure of a Great City
By the later 5th c. A.D., Constantinople was the greatest urban centre in the Mediterranean world. This paper considers three associated elements of the infrastructure of the city, each of which applied aspects of ancient technology: a first theme will consider the urban terraces which have only been studied in detail for the area of the Great Palace, but which represent a massive investment in the transformation of the built topography of the ci…
