The Afterlife of the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus
Few buildings have been as important to Western culture as the Mausoleum of Halicarnassus. One of the Seven Wonders of antiquity, it was destroyed during the Middle Ages, leading countless architects, antiquarians, painters and printmakers in Early Modern Europe to speculate upon its appearance. This book – the first on its subject – examines their works, from erudite publications to simple pen sketches, from elegant watercolours to complete buil…

T he Mausoleum at Halicarnassus has been an enthralling monument since its creation, yet its reception and afterlife have witnessed a large degree of variation over time. 1 The most comprehensive explorations of its historiography have defined the monument’s excavation as a pivotal moment, when the most dramatic changes took place in the perception and reconstruction of the Mausoleum. 2 British architect Charles Robert Cockerell (1788–1863) was l…

This paper examines the development of the architectural plan of the Late Roman villa in the Danube-Balkan region. It firstly considers questions relating to the definition of the Roman villa, then presents a methodology for establishing a typology, before classifying villas across a large geographical area. Finally, an attempt is made to explain the chronological and geographical distribution of different plans in relation to local conditions an…
Roman Game Boards from Abu Sha'ar (Red Sea Coast, Egypt)
The discovery of twenty game boards - including some in a dedicated den or gaming room - in the late Roman fort at Abu Sha'ar, on the Red Sea coast of Egypt, conjures up images of daily life at a well established, but remote Roman military station. Here, during the long hot days and cool nights, soldiers no doubt played board games and gambled incessantly.
