Technology in the Sahara and Beyond
The concluding discussion in this chapter addresses several issues. In the first place it draws together the threads of discussion that run through the individual chapters relating to the nature of technology and technological transfer in the Sahara. It reflects on ‘what is a mobile technology?’, ‘how to study technology in the Sahara’, ‘difficulties and solutions’ and ‘connections’. The second half of the chapter broadens the discussion to consi…
Shattering Illusions
This chapter reports analysis of glass from the Garamantian heartlands in the central (Libyan) Sahara, including several fragments of imported Roman vessel glass. Results are contextualised within those of other published studies to develop a broader picture against which new analyses can be interpreted. The chapter aims to demonstrate the crucial importance of moving beyond a simple association between composition and provenance. Less archaeolog…
Introduction
The importance of creating space for discussion between specialists lies at the heart of this volume. Many approaches to the study of past recycling and reuse enjoy shared methodologies and theoretical perspectives, so we can all learn from one another in this way. Furthermore, it is likely that the same agents were often responsible for the recycling (and to a lesser extent, reuse) of a whole range of materials, due to shared knowledge (e.g. of …
Recycling and Reuse in the Roman Economy
Imitation, Artificiality and Creation
The introduction and use of glass in Late Bronze Age Egypt (18th to 19th Dynasties) is discussed from a materiality-based approach. It is suggested that the artificiality of this new material was deliberately proclaimed, highlighting the ability of those behind its production to access the processes of creation and transformation. Colour is central to the arguments presented, and it is suggested that glass was valued for its ability to fully assu…
