Characterizing ceramic production at Sardis
Lydian pottery in the Roman tradition
The emergence of Sardis as an urban centre in the early Iron Age coincided with local production of fine painted pottery in a distinctive regional idiom. Examples of Lydian-style pottery found across western Anatolia from the eighth century BC attest the city’s growing cultural and economic contacts as well as consistent materials and craft methods. Archaeo- metric study using neutron activation analysis (NAA) at the University of Missouri Resear…
The First Koinon Temple of Roman Sardis
An artificial terrace in the center of the city of Sardis in western Asia Minor formed a focus of urban life from the Early Imperial period until the early Byzantine era. Following the earthquake of 17 CE, the terrace became a major sanctuary of the imperial cult belonging to the koinon of Asia. The lavishly ornamented octastyle temple and broad range of honorific monuments attest the importance of the sanctuary for the first three centuries CE. …
Entertainment
Chapter 17, “Entertainment,” considers Constantinople as a nexus of social space, civic ceremony, commercial entertainment, and endless diversion where streets and plazas were regularly taken over by processions, churches and monasteries were filled with clergy and worshipers, and competitive games and performances took place in the open-air hippodrome.
Last suppers at Sardis
The realia of shared meals provide a key index for social behavior in Late Antiquity. Much attention has been paid to the architecture and ceramics of dining, but usually separately and from unrelated contexts. Three excavated rooms at Sardis present an opportunity to extend this discussion to the furnishings that once stood at the center of domestic hospitality. Nearly complete marble tabletops recovered from their places of intended use show di…
The Color-Inlaid “Champlevé” Reliefs of the Synagogue at Sardis
One of the notable features of the Sardis Synagogue was its extensive decoration with floor mosaics, wall paintings, marble revetment, and opus sectile, with an ornamental relief arcade also appearing in the forecourt. Reliefs carved in the distinctive “champlevé” technique presented a series of arches with spandrels featuring vases, vines, and birds set against a reddish ground. The sculptural approach is not well known in the region, although e…
Home from the hunt
The Sardis excavation sector known as MMS was a center of habitation for over a millennium. Archaic houses built near the great mudbrick fortification were succeeded by scattered Hellenistic and Roman dwellings, to be followed in late antiquity by imposing residences of complex plan and ambitious decoration. Like other parts of the city, these houses saw extensive structural damage in the early A.D. 600s. Raised floors, flimsy partitions and make…
Pottery Provenance in the Eastern Mediterranean Using Lead Isotopes
The lead isotope composition of 45 sherds of six different pottery wares from the Eastern Mediterranean and dating from the Late Hellenistic – Late Roman period is analysed and compared to data obtained on ceramics and clays from the Eastern Mediterranean. These sherds were previously analysed by neutron activation and the origin and relationship between the wares has been debated in the literature. The results show that lead isotopes support ear…
A menorah plaque from the center of Sardis
Roman Sardis, like other cities of W Asia Minor, reflects the distinctive cultures of different peoples who had long lived in its vicinity. Of these varied populations, the Jewish community seems to have been especially notable. Written sources cited by Josephus establish the presence of diaspora Jews in Lydia and Phrygia by the end of the 3rd c. B.C., when Antiochus III relocated 2000 families here from Babylon and Mesopotamia. By the Late Repub…
The Troodos in Twilight
Daniel at Sardis
Recently identified among the architectural decoration of the Sardis Synagogue are three fragments of an incised relief depicting four lions and a standing figure. Composition, iconography, and style suggest this represents the biblical figure of Daniel as understood by a local sculptor in the fifth century. The lack of close comparanda, either Jewish or Christian, reflects the relief's immediate working environment and the way religious images w…
From Polis to Pasture
Daily Life in the Byzantine Empire
Discover how ordinary people lived during the Middle Ages in the eastern Mediterranean in this unparalleled exploration of life in the Byzantine Empire. Learn how the subjects of the Byzantine Empire kept track of time with sundials and water clocks. Witness a typical wedding and all of the traditions followed by the bride, groom, and guests. Find out how the Byzantines kept up their appearance, covering everything from skincare to dental care. L…
Valley and Village in Late Roman Cyprus
Recent investigations of Roman society and economy have sought to recover the histories of the varied provinces and their rural populations, whose circumstances and lifestyles remain poorly understood. The need is especially acute for Cyprus, which occupied an important place in the production and exchange networks of the East Mediterranean. A generation of archaeological survey work has assembled much basic information about this island landscap…

Economy and Exchange in the East Mediterranean during Late Antiquity
The Source Provenance of Bronze Age and Roman pottery from Cyprus
Archaeological interpretations of ancient economies have been strengthened by chemical analyses of ceramics, which provide the clearest evidence for economic activity, and comprise both the objects of exchange and its means. Pottery is often manufactured from local materials, but its compositional diversity typically prevents significant patterns of resource utilization from being identified. Centrally located and positioned on traditional shippi…
The Sardis Campaigns of 1996, 1997, and 1998
Excavation at Sardis continued to focus on Late Roman and Archaic monuments. Of several Late Roman town houses, one that is now fully exposed has 12 groundfloor rooms with high-quality decoration (mosaic floors, wall painting, and stucco) and contained a variety of artifacts including a hoard of 21 glass weights related to coinage. The 200 m long segment of Archaic city wall, which has been under excavation for 20 seasons, evidently was built no …

Handmade Pottery and Social Change
Technological and stylistic change in pottery-making reflects myriad material, social and economic conditions. The adoption of wheel-based pottery techniques in the east Mediterranean generally is seen to reflect rising craft specialization and social complexity in the Middle and Late Bronze Age. There is less agreement about the subsequent continuity or re-emergence of handmade pottery, especially during times of dramatic cultural change. Recent…

Excavation at Sardis in 1994 and 1995 further exposed a Late Roman suburb, with houses and colonnaded streets of the fourth-seventh centuries A. D., and a massive defense wall of the seventh-sixth centuries B. C., together with destruction debris of the latter and associated weapons that evidently belong to the Persian attack of the 540s B. C. Foundations for a crepis wall that curbed one of the largest tumuli in the Bin Tepe cemetery were also f…

The Byzantine Shops at Sardis
The Byzantine Shops at Sardis form a complex of commercial establishments lining the south wall of Sardis's renowned synagogue and bath complex. They offer scholars a unique opportunity to study urban life and commercial architecture in the Late Antique period. Remarkably well preserved, these shops provide economic data vital to an understanding of the trade and commerce of their time. J. Stephens Crawford was a primary excavator of the shops an…
