The Materiality of Daily Life in Islamic Palermo
A recent discovery during a rescue excavation at Corso Tukory 107 in Palermo (Sicily, Italy) revealed a significant Islamic archaeological context from the second half of the 10th century to the first half of the 11th century, coinciding with the rule of the Kalbids. The site was exposed during urban redevelopment activities, and it offers a unique insight into Islamic Sicily’s material culture through a compact layer rich in ceramics and zooarch…
The Role of Birds in Upper Paleolithic Contexts
The analysis of avian remains from archaeological contexts provides valuable insights into human subsistence strategies, symbolic behaviors, and human–environment interactions. Birds of prey, and large diurnal raptors in particular, are rarely documented in Paleolithic assemblages, and their presence is generally interpreted as nonalimentary. This paper presents the zooarchaeological and taphonomic study of seven avian skeletal elements attributa…
«O quanto beata è la fortissima donzella!». L’invidia per l’abito nel travestimento di Erminia
L’articolo analizza il passo del canto VI della Gerusalemme liberata in cui Erminia usa la strategia di indossare le armi di Clorinda per uscire dalle mura di Gerusalemme e raggiungere l’amato Tancredi. Il travestimento, oltre a essere un espediente narrativo, nasconde numerosi precedenti letterari e rivela un rapporto complesso tra le due donne, tra somiglianze e differenze. L’invidia di Erminia non è per la bellezza o la fama di Clorinda, ma pe…
Tuna fishing in medieval Sicily
This paper presents the result of the analysis of a large sample of bone remains belonging to Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus), dated between the second half of the 10th century CE and the first half of the 11th century CE, recovered near Porta Sant’ Agata in Palermo.The analytical methodologies applied to the osteological remains made it possible to draw information on the biological profile (size and age at capture) of the individuals co…
The human entry in Sicily
The timing of the earliest peopling of Sicily and, to a wider level, of human mobility in the Mediterranean basin after the Last Glacial Maximum is enriched by the recent discovery of an archaeological record dated back to 16,5 ka cal BP from San Teodoro cave (Acquedolci, Messina). We present the results of a new archaeological campaign inside the grotto, where we were able to identify a layer related to the initial stage of human occupation. The…
