Un lecho decorado con hueso en la Casa Noroeste de Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca)
En el presente artículo se da a conocer un hallazgo excepcional realizado en el contexto de una de las estancias de la Casa Noroeste en el área residencial de Sa Portella de la ciudad romana de Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca). Se trata de los restos de hueso trabajado pertenecientes al revestimiento de un lecho. Su importancia radica en que se trata, que sepamos, del primer hallazgo de estas características en ámbito doméstico o artesanal en el con…
Una nueva tessera lusoria procedente de Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca)
En 2018 se recuperó una nueva tessera lusoria procedente del foro de Pollentia, sumándose a otro ejemplar hallado durante las excavaciones antiguas de la ciudad romana. Esta ficha de juego en hueso presenta inscripción en tan solo una de las dos caras, un tipo anómalo entre este conjunto de instrumenta. Su presencia en el asentamiento y sus paralelos permiten definir estos elementos de juego como un marcador de personal itálico en los asentamient…
Comprehensive geophysical prospection of the Roman and late antique city of Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca, Spain)
An extensive magnetic survey has been carried out on a large part of the Roman and late antique city of Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca, Spain), combined with ground penetrating radar (GPR) and electric resistivity imaging (ER Imaging) to obtain data for a better understanding of the ancient city. For magnetic measurements, the 7‐probe fluxgate gradiometer array was used. The GPR data were collected by means of a system equipped with two dual‐freque…
El mosaico pavimental de la basílica de Illa del Rei (Menorca, Baleares)
The ecclesiastical complex of Illa del Rei is located on a coastal islet in the port of Mahón (Menorca, Balearic Islands). It was discovered by chance when a mosaic appeared which was made available in 1888 by a drawing by H. Llorente. New archaeological excavations undertaken in 2008 and 2013, have made it possible to re-examine the previous studies of the church’s pavement mosaic. This paper revises the mosaic taking into account the unpublishe…
Exploring Roman and Late Roman Common Buff Wares from the rural site of Sa Mesquida (Mallorca, Balearic Islands)
Geophysical survey at the early Christian complex of Son Peretó (Mallorca, Balearic Islands, Spain)
Rural basilicas are the most important evidence of Christianization of the countryside on the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain). Recent investigations of rural landscape transformations suggest that some churches were built along communication routes and linked to preexisting settlements. To obtain new data that could support this hypothesis, a geophysical survey has been carried out at the early Christian complex of Son Peretó, one of…
Radiocarbon Dating of a Late Antique Necropolis From Felanitx (Mallorca, Balearic Islands)
The excavation of a building in the village of Felanitx in the eastern part of the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands) has revealed the existence of a small necropolis. The inhumations did not provide grave goods except for a bronze belt buckle for which the typological study suggests a Late Antique chronology. The stratigraphical sequence however seems to suggest a possible evolution of the space across time since some graves are cut by others…
Archaeometric characterization of water jars from the Muslim period at the city of Pollentia (Alcúdia, Mallorca, Balearic Islands)
The Roman city of Pollentia was founded in 123 BCE in the northern part of the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain). The city developed through the Republican and Imperial periods. At the end of the third century CE, a large fire destroyed parts of the city, although it survived through the Vandal and the Byzantine periods. At the beginning of the tenth century, the Balearics were conquered by the Muslim forces. Recent excavations of the …
Buildings of faith
The Balearic Islands lie not far off the E coast of the Iberian Peninsula in a strategic position for navigation and trade routes (fig. 1 below). Classical writers considered them two groups of islands: Mallorca and Menorca (with adjacent islands and islets), forming the Baliarides , and Ibiza and Formentera (with other islets), considered the Pityussae . 1 In 123 B.C., the Balearides were conquered by the Romans and included first in Hispania Ci…
Christians in a Muslim world? Radiocarbon dating of the cemetery overlaying the forum of Pollentia (Mallorca, Balearic Islands)
Nuevo pavimento de opus sectile hallado en Pollentia (Alcudia, Mallorca)
Esta contribución recoge el hallazgo de un mosaico de opus sectile bícromo, en blanco y negro, descubierto en el foro de la ciudad romana y tardoantigua de Pollentia (Alcudia, Mallorca). El pavimento, asociado a un edificio aún en proceso de investigación, presenta un esquema geométrico sencillo, combinando hexágonos negros y triángulos equiláteros blancos que dibujan estrellas de seis puntas. El escaso material recuperado en la preparación del m…
From Roman to Byzantine
This paper explores the Late Antique occupation of rural territories in the eastern part of the island of Mallorca (Balearic Islands). Data and ceramics from several old field surveys have been re-analysed and different spatial analyses have been carried out in order to understand better the settlement patterns in this area of variable geomorphology, which includes plains, hills and coastlands. Evidence of Late Roman, Vandal and Byzantine occupat…
