Modelling Climate and Societal Resilience in the Eastern Mediterranean in the Last Millennium
This article analyses high-quality hydroclimate proxy records and spatial reconstructions from the Central and Eastern Mediterranean and compares them with two Earth System Model simulations (CCSM4, MPI-ESM-P) for the Crusader period in the Levant (1095-1290 CE), the Mamluk regime in Transjordan (1260-1516 CE) and the Ottoman crisis and Celâlî Rebellion (1580-1610 CE). During the three time intervals, environmental and climatic stress tested the …
The Byzantine Successor State
This chapter examines the history of state formation in the Byzantine Empire, or the eastern Roman Empire, during the fourth century to the fifteenth century CE. It explains that the Byzantine successor state evolved out of Roman institutional arrangements structured as a hierarchy of administrative levels and that it was a complex bureaucracy which required a substantial degree of more-than-minimal clerical literacy for its day-to-day administra…
Comparative State Formation
The later Roman Empire is often perceived as simply one part of a wider cultural and geographical milieu. Much attention has been focused on either Rome's immediate geographical neighbors--barbarians in the North and West, the peoples of the Caucasus region, the Parthian or Sasanian realm to the East, the steppes to the North, stretching away across to China, or the Arabian peninsula and the Red Sea and Gulf territories, with their mercantile and…

Military Technology and Warfare
The military technology of Byzantium played a major role in the evolution of the defensive and offensive techniques common to the western Eurasian world. In the later fifth and sixth centuries, those who made up the first and second ranks in the Byzantine infantry were the ones who primarily wore the full defensive panoply. To protect themselves against the enemy, soldiers used breastplates, helmets, leg-armors, and wide round or oval shields. Th…

Historical landscape change in Cappadocia (central Turkey)
Coupled multiproxy indicators (pollen, stable isotopes and charcoal) reconstructed from annually laminated lake sediments from Nar GölÃ1⁄4 in Cappadocia (central Turkey) complemented by documentary and archaeological evidence provide a detailed record of environmental changes and their causes from late Antiquity (AD 300) to the present day. Stable isotope data indicate marked shifts in the variability in summer drought intensity and winter—spring…
Justice Legal Literature
Byzantium has produced an extensive legal literature, though little in the way of legal theory. In the field of secular law, the reign of Justinian I brings the transition from Late Antiquity to Byzantium. Justinian's codification of Roman law in the Digest (and Institutes) and Code both brings ancient Roman law to its conclusion and forms the beginning of Byzantine law. The Digest is an anthology of the writings of Roman jurists of the first cen…
Economy and Administration
In the course of Justinian’s reign, the apparatus of government dealt with continuing changes in social and economic relationships throughout the empire, altered relations between the imperial court and the church, and a series of reconquests of former imperial territory that were remarkably successful but expensive in manpower and cash. In this context of rapid change at home and abroad, flaws in the machinery of government came to the fore and …
