  • The man who came late to dinner. A sundial, a raven, and a missed dinner party on a mosaic at Tarsus

    Open AccessKatherine M D Dunbabin, Işık Adak Adibelli et al.ARTICLEJournal of Roman Archaeology2019

    In 2012, construction works at the traditional olive market at Tarsus, in Eski Ömerli district, revealed large-scale architectural remains of the Roman period; the construction works were halted and a salvage excavation was initiated by Tarsus Museum. The remains that appeared at the first stage of the excavations were interpreted as those of a reservoir from the Roman Imperial period, stretching along a N–S axis. On the E side, a structure proje…

  • Athletes, acclamations, and imagery from the end of antiquity

    Open AccessKatherine M D DunbabinARTICLEJournal of Roman Archaeology2017

    In recent years there has been considerable scholarly interest in athletic contests in late antiquity and in the fate of the agonistic festivals that for many centuries constituted the principal occasion for them in the Greek world. The old notion that the end of the games at Olympia, and, a fortiori , that of the other great festivals of the periodos , came with the banning of pagan sacrifice by Theodosius I in A.D. 392/393 is now acknowledged t…

  • The agonistic mosaic in the Villa of Lucius Verus and the Capitolia of Rome

    Open AccessKatherine M D DunbabinARTICLEJournal of Roman Archaeology2015References: 4

    The 3rd-c. interventions in the Villa of Lucius Verus on the Via Cassia included the laying of a black-and-white mosaic in the irregular space 32 in Sector D, which forms a passage or vestibule between exedra 24/25 to the north and the small baths (41–48) to the south (fig. 1). The mosaic shows a series of figures and small groups; most are athletes of various sorts, but they also include musicians, comic and tragic actors, and a prize-table with…

  • The Waiting Servant in Later Roman Art

    Katherine M D DunbabinARTICLEThe American Journal of Philology2003Cited by: 5References: 1

    Although literary sources from the early Empire attest to the importance attached to the presence of a large staff of specialized servants at the banquets of the wealthy, in the art of this period little emphasis is placed upon the servants in banquet scenes, who serve essentially utilitarian functions. By the later Empire, however, figures of attendants bearing offerings become much more prominent and convey messages of the wealth and status of …

    Open AccessKatherine M D DunbabinARTICLEPapers of the British School at…1989Cited by: 2References: 14

    BAIARUM GRATA VOLUPTAS . PIACERI E PERICOLI DELLE TERME Sono predominanti nella ideologia delle terme romane le idee di piacere, bellezza e voluttuoso godimento. Gli epigrammi e le iscrizioni relativi alle terme ruotano costantemente intorno ai temi della charis, apolausis, euphrosyne od ai loro equivalenti latini. Temi siffatti sono rappresentati di frequente nella decorazione degli edifici termali con immagini che riproducono in mosaici, pittur…

  • The Victorious Charioteer on Mosaics and Related Monuments

    Katherine M D DunbabinARTICLEAmerican Journal of Archaeology1982Cited by: 8

    The representations on Roman mosaics of the victorious charioteer of the circus may be compared with similar representations in other forms of Roman art, both major and minor. Certain standard types are established which are repeated with only slight variations in different media and at widely different times and places. Common models must underlie these types, but the individual craftsmen or workshops evidently exercised their own choice over th…
