Geology, Materials, and the Design of the Roman Harbour of Soli-Pompeiopolis, Turkey
The Palaeo-Environmental Contexts of Three Possible Phoenician Anchorages in Portugal
The 2002 Joint Expedition of the Institute of Nautical Archaeology and the Centro Nacional de Arqueologia Náutica e Subaquática examined Phoenician maritime involvement in Portugal, combining archaeological, geological and geophysical surveys of former coastal sites—Santa Olaia, Abul and Castro Marim—where previous excavations have uncovered Phoenician remains. Significant geomorphic evolution of bay-head delta and estuarine settings masks the fa…

A Comparison of the Chemical and Engineering Characteristics of Ancient Roman Hydraulic Concrete With a Modern Reproduction of Vitruvian Hydraulic Concrete
The authors have completed structural and compositional analysis of Roman hydraulic concrete using large cores taken from a variety of maritime structures. In 2005 an 8 m 3 block of hydraulic, pozzolanic concrete was built in the sea at Brindisi (Italy), applying the materials and procedures specified by the Roman architect Vitruvius. Cores were taken at 6 months and 12 months after construction and subjected to the same analyses as the first‐cen…

Aperlae in Lycia
Building a Roman Pila in the Sea-Experimental Archaeology at Brindisi, Italy, September 2004
The Romacons Project
Since all long-distance trade in the Roman world travelled by water, Roman harbour design and construction have special importance. Harbour excavation must be supplemented by analysis of the components of the hydraulic concrete, structural analysis of the cementing materials, and consideration of the design of the wooden formwork. The authors have begun collecting large cores from concrete blocks at Roman harbours and other maritime structures, a…

Cabotage at Aperlae in Ancient Lycia
Aperlae was a small remote maritime city in ancient Lycia with a millennial floruit (late 4th century BC through the late 7th century AD). The harsh terrain of its hinterland forced a reliance on the Mediterranean from its founding to its demise. The Aperlites stabilized and enhanced their urban waterfronts in modest ways over the centuries, but basically they maintained and sustained their intimate relationship with the sea without elaborate doc…
Anastasius I, Mud, and Foraminifera
The continuing underwater excavations in the outer harbor of Caesarea Maritima have produced masses of data that relate to the life and times of the major maritime installation of King Herod's city on the sea. The material published thus far is open to a variety of interpretations by archaeologists and scholars who are attempting to understand the long history of this important eastern Mediterranean port. The fate of Sebastos or Portus Augusti (a…

Pour cela, il fit venir de Rome des maitres-bâtisseurs et des architectes. L'A explique le choix de l'emplacement puis presente les problemes generes par le site et les solutions apportees.

Res Maritimae
Uncovering the Maritime Secrets of Aperlae, a Coastal Settlement of Ancient Lycia
At the terminus of one of the Mediterranean's countless exposed bays, open and vulnerable to the ravages of the sea, the fortified town of Aperlae surprisingly boasts an impressive complex of ruins that speak clearly to the town's prosperity. A clue to why Aperlae flourished may be found in the ubiquitous remains of the sea snail murex, the basis of Tyrian purple dye. Aperlae and the submerged ruins of its waterfront offer an attractive arena for…
Icomos goes to sea
The International Committee of ICOMOS for the Protection and Management of the Underwater Cultural Heritage has produced a draft Charter of principles to follow. The Charter is due for discussion and adoption at ICOMOS' General Assembly in October this year. We will publish eventually the full text of the adopted Charter; meanwhile, we asked Dr Robert Hohlfelder, underwater archaeologist with three decades of experience exploring harbour sites in…

An Experiment in Controlled Excavation beneath Caesarea Maritima's Sea, 1990
The appearance of mud in the harbor of the Outer Basin of King Herod's harbor at Caesarea Maritima provides important evidence for dating when this installation was actually in use. Mud could only have accumulated when the breakwaters were functioning as intended, creating a basin protected from the wave energy of open sea. Previous efforts to date the deposition of the mud from material culture found in this sedimentological stratum have not bee…

The Caesarea Ancient Harbor Excavation Project (C.A.H.E.P.)
Underwater and shoreline survey and excavation at the Herodian harbor of Sebastos, the port of Caesarea Maritima on the Mediterranean coast of Israel, have provided important new information on Roman harbor design and construction. Local and imported materials were carefully selected and used to construct two immense breakwaters that framed outer and inner basins. Hydraulic concrete was used in a sophisticated manner, and ingenious sluice gates a…
