Missionaries and the Colonial State: Radicalism and Governance in Rwanda and Burundi, 1900–1972
Catholic and Protestant missionaries followed their own, competing agendas rather than those of the colonial state. This volume unravels these agendas and challenges received wisdom on the histories of Rwanda and Burundi, as well as the colonial relationship between state and mission. The archives of the White Fathers Catholic missionary order in Rome and Paris are read alongside primary sources produced by the British Protestant Church Missionar…

Maritime trade in the Gulf: The 11th and 12th centuries
In the eleventh century, the great port of Siraf collapsed, and was replaced by Kish. The latter, however, never attained the size or wealth of Siraf. The ‘failure’ of Kish is a symptom of a depression in the maritime trade of the Gulf, caused by a decline in demand for imported goods in Iran and Iraq. This decline, attributed to political fragmentation following the fall of the Buyids, was aggravated by the diversion of trade to the Red Sea. The…

Sirāf: A medieval port on the Persian Gulf
In the ninth and tenth centuries A.D., Sirāf, on the Iranian coast of the Persian Gulf, was a leading entrepot for maritime trade between the Moslem world and the Far East. Excavations at Sirāf, begun by the British Institute of Persian Studies in 1966, show that the site was already important in the eighth century. The city reached its greatest extent in the tenth century and thereafter declined. After the twelfth century the site supported a sm…

Chinese Porcelain in Medieval Europe

It is divided into three parts: Introduction, Catalogue and short…

Medieval Painted Pottery in South and Central Italy
DURING the 9th century unglazed pottery decorated with red or brown slip came into production along the middle Rhine. This pottery, known as Pingsdorf ware, was exported in large quantities to the North Sea region and even to the Baltic coast.2 By the 12th century red-painted pottery, often imitating Pingsdorf ware, was made at a number of sites in the Low Countries and western France.3It has long been known that painted pottery was manufactured …

LA SCHOLA PRAECONUM I La cosiddetta Schola Praeconum si trova nella parte nord-ovest del Palatino sovrastante il Circo Massimo. Un sondaggio, effettuato nel 1978, rivelò un massiccio riempimento databile, sulla base delle 38 monete identificate, al secondo quarto del V secolo d.C., forse tra il 430 e il 440 circa. Il riempimento conteneva un'enorme quantità di ceramiche—terra sigillata chiara, lucerne (per la maggior parte di produzione locale), …

Castel Porciano: An abandoned Medieval Village of the Roman Campagna
One of the problems which has arisen during the course of the work on the topographical survey of South Etruria has been that of the date and cause of the abandonment of many of the smaller medieval settlements of which there is evidence in the area. The study of deserted medieval villages has advanced considerably in northern Europe since 1945, but in Italy it is still in its infancy. There is therefore an almost complete lack of comparative mat…

A Roman building in the Cambridgeshire Fens, and some parallels near Rome
Two Hadrianic‐early Antonine buildings, one in an administrative complex for a vast Imperial Estate in the Fenland of England, the other just north of Rome, can be shown to be remarkably similar. It is suggested that they follow a trend set by Hadrian himself in the building of prestigious tower‐like structures, a type of 'display architecture
The Medieval Pottery from S. Cornelia
S. Cornelia (863583), 15 kilometres north of Rome and midway between Veii and Formello (Figure 1), was rediscovered in 1958 during the South Etruria Survey and excavated by Charles Daniels in 1962–4. It was identified immediately as the domusculta of Capracorum, established by Hadrian I c . 780 (Ward-Perkins 1963: 38; Kahane et al. 1968: 161–4). The site is of lasting importance. Apart from its exceptional intrinsic interest, it provided the firs…

The Centopietre at Patù
The Centopietre at Patù, 60 km. south of Leece (FIG. I ) is one of the most extraordinary ancient monuments in south-east Italy. It is asmall rectangular structurewith ashlarwalls and a pitched roof, built entirely ofstone. Several accounts of the Centopietre are available in Italian, notably those of Pasquale Maggiulli, who produced the first rational discussion of the building in 1912 [I], and Professor Adriano Prandi, who published the results…

The Medieval Glazed Pottery of Lazio
Medieval archaeology in the sense of a field study involving controlled excavation is in its infancy in Italy. Scarcely a dozen excavations have been carried out with the recovery of information about the middle ages as their primary objective and little attention has been paid to the material remains of everyday life. It is not surprising, therefore, that in the past the only medieval pottery to receive lasting attention has been the tin-glazed …

Excavations at Anglona
Anglona is the site of a prehistoric, Hellenistic and medieval settlement overlooking the Ionian Sea, 60 km. south-west of Taranto (Fig. 1). In 1965 we carried out a short trial excavation at Anglona on behalf of the Soprintendenza alle Antichità for Lucania. The excavation was of an exploratory nature. The site has since been excavated on a larger scale by the German Archaeological Institute, but the results obtained by ourselves were sufficient…

Excavations at Satriano: A Deserted Medieval Settlement in Basilicata
The remains of medieval Satriano occupy the acropolis of the Lucanian town, a hilltop site 16 km. south-west of Potenza (Pl. XXVII, a ). Like the Lucanian settlement, the medieval site owed its existence to the commanding position of the acropolis, which not only dominates the surrounding countryside, but also overlooks an important route between Campania and Apulia. The valleys of the Tanagro and the Platano (which together join the Sele near Co…

A Trial Excavation at Monte d'Irsi, Basilicata
Monte d'Irsi is located approximately 6·5 km. east-southeast of the town of Irsina and 4 km. due west of the village of Santa Maria d'Irsi in the region of Basilicata. The archaeological site sits on the crown of an irregularly shaped plateau at around 480 m. above sea level; the land drops away steeply in all directions and the hill-sides are heavily eroded by stream beds which feed into the two major rivers in the area, the Bradano and the Base…

Excavation and Survey at Tuscania, 1972: A Preliminary Report
On 6 February 1971 the small town of Tuscania, twenty miles west of Viterbo and the same distance north-east of Tarquinia, was the scene of a local but very violent earthquake, which killed a number of people and rendered much of the old town totally uninhabitable. Tuscania (until 1911 Toscanella) is best known to most visitors to Italy for its two magnificent medieval churches, that of San Pietro on the ancient acropolis and that of Santa Maria …
