  • The walls of medieval Zuwila

    Open AccessD J Mattingly, DJ Mattingly et al.ARTICLELibyan Studies2015References: 15

    The walls of Zuwila constitute one of the most impressive defensive enceintes among Libyan Saharan oasis towns, but hitherto their construction date has been uncertain. A new AMS radiocarbon date now offers the strongest support for an association with the establishment of the Banu Khattab dynasty at Zuwila in the early tenth century AD, as some previous commentators had suspected. The walls relate to a fortress of approximately 4.5 hectares buil…

    This book seeks to advance knowledge of human settlement and adaptation in the world's largest desert, the sahara. Previous studies focussed on the prehistoric phases but this study takes a wider historical and geographical perspective. It sets out to combine the results of several field campaigns, their histories and methodologies. We look at fieldwork, fortifications, funerary structures, irrigation, rock art and human occupation. The final sum…

  • Excavation and Fieldwork amongst the Garamantes

    Open AccessCharles Daniels, C M DanielsARTICLELibyan Studies1989Cited by: 28References: 6

    The Garamantes exercised a powerful hold upon the Mediterranean imagination during the early and high Empire (Daniels 1970; Desanges 1962; Merighi 1940; Romanelli 1959; Ruprechtsburger, forthcoming). Remote and beyond the southern limits of the African provinces, they represented the mythical south, only accessible after perilous desert travel; they were inextricably interwoven in people's minds with swarming serpents, fabulous fountains and prec…

  • Roman Faience from the Vicinity of Germa, Wadi el Agial, Fezzan

    Open AccessCharlotte Tagart, Charles Daniels et al.ARTICLELibyan Studies1983Cited by: 2References: 1

    This paper discusses Egyptian faience vessels of the Roman period from Fezzan. The nature and characteristics of Roman faience are discussed together with a petrological analysis of the material. The different vessel forms from Fezzan are recorded. Parallels in glass and pottery suggest a late first or second century AD date for most of the material

  • The Garamantes of Fezzan - an Interim Report of Research, 1965-1973

    Open AccessCharles Daniels, C M DanielsARTICLEAnnual report - Society for…1973Cited by: 10

    The Garamantes were the inhabitants of Southern Libya. Their capital Garama (‘ clarissimum ... caput Garamantum ’) lies partly under the now deserted mud-brick Arab town of Germa in the Wadi el Agial some hundred miles west of Sebha. The oldest pottery so far recovered from the site dates to the late fifth and fourth centuries B.C., but earlier occupation, stretching back to the ninth century B.C., has been found on the nearby fortified spur-site…
