Ancient Restoration in Roman Polychromy: Detecting Aesthetic Changes
Few instances of material evidence for ancient colour restorations have been documented over the last 20 years, during which time the scientific approach to the study of polychromy has been defined. This article presents eight new cases of ancient restoration of colour from the Roman Imperial Age. By combining observations in visible and UV light and video microscopy with a micro-stratigraphic approach, MA-X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy, and con…

Claudine Munier et Inès Pactat (dir.), Le verre du viiie au xvie siècle en Europe occidentale
Ce volume s’inscrit dans les problématiques les plus actuelles concernant les recherches sur le verre médiéval et embrasse une chronologie large, qui a comme point de départ le monde carolingien (viiie s.) et comme point d’arrivée l’époque moderne (xvie s.). Il s’agit d’une période de transformations dans l’industrie du verre : technologie de fabrication, typologie et organisation de la production changent par rapport à l’Antiquité, mieux connue.…
The trade of glass beads in early medieval Illyricum: Towards an Islamic monopoly
The trade of glass beads has long been assumed to have been under Islamic dominance during the early centuries following the Arab conquest of the Middle East, judged by the prevalence of Islamic beads in the archaeological contexts from Viking Scandinavia to medieval Morocco. This paper explores the impact of the Byzantine-Slavic transition on the use and by extension trade of glass beads in the Balkans from the seventh to the ninth century CE. A…
A Byzantine connection: Eastern Mediterranean glasses in medieval Bari
The transition from the Roman natron-based glass industry to the medieval ash-based tradition in Italy in the latter part of the first millennium CE is still poorly documented. The compositional data of eighteen glass fragments excavated from the Byzantine praetorium in Bari suggest that the development in the southern part of the Peninsula differs from that in the north. Analyses by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (LA…
Something old, something new: The late antique mosaics from the catacomb of San Gennaro (Naples)
Naples assumed an important political and economic role within the region of Campania during the late antique period. LA-ICP-MS data of 285 glass tesserae from the catacomb of San Gennaro in Naples confirm that the surge in building activities in the late fourth and early fifth century CE was accompanied by imports of new materials for the production of mosaic tesserae. Our results from Naples identify a substantial number of Jalame-like Levantin…
Desuper tegens universa musivum. Le décor des coupoles du complexe de Saint-Laurent à Milan
L’article dresse l’état des connaissances sur le décor des voûtes de la basilique Saint-Laurent à Milan et s’interroge sur la datation, la provenance des matériaux et la signification du décor. L’analyse archéologique et archéométrique des tesselles et des fragments de mosaïques corrobore l’existence des voûtes décorées dans le tétraconque, ainsi que dans les chapelles octogonales, pendant la phase paléochrétienne et la restauration ottonienne. L…

Dating the mosaics of the Durres amphitheatre through interdisciplinary analysis
This article presents the results of an interdisciplinary investigation of the mosaics in the main chapel of the Durres amphitheatre, the interpretation and chronological attribution of which have been the subject of debate. Art historical considerations about the mosaic's cultural and artistic affiliations are combined with in situ assessments of the mosaic techniques and physico-chemical analyses of 111 glass tesserae by means of scanning elect…
