Abstract:
The development of a consciousness of history, in particular hinged on material forms, and of archaeology as such is discussed with particular reference to the traditions of prehistoric and classical archaeology in Scandinavia. The conservative attitudes of traditions are deplored, and globalization seen as the novel challenge.

Abstract:
Classical archaeology is practised according to theoretical models formulated a century ago. The research goals of classical archaeology have been preserved as opposed to developed. This preservation can partly be explained by the ideologies that shape the discipline. In this article, some of the problems of classical archaeology are identified. Without giving any concrete solutions to the problems, the author argues that we need a profound discussion of the practice of classical archaeology in order to redefine and change the discipline.

Abstract:
‘Archaeology is breaking up … the very identity of “Archaeology” is beginning to fragment’: thus the alarm call in early 1988 from Cambridge, made by and to non-classical archaeologists, to gather in June and consider remedies. A month after the Cambridge symposium nearly 1500 scholars gathered in Berlin for the Eleventh International Congress in Classical Archaeology, devoted to the Hellenistic period. Many of the papers treated subjects in the traditional way, trying to make sense of new discoveries, and making better sense ofthe long familiar, including some radical revisions. Several were of a style and approach unthinkable even 20 years ago, notably those dealing with the problems of acculturation on the eastern edges of Alexander’s empire. There were no signs of anxiety. Should there have been?

Abstract:
In this essay, material and written sources are compared in an attempt to learn more about the Iron Age religion in Britain. Classical texts and archaeological evidence concerning the Iron Age religion in Britain are presented, after which a comparison is made of the two to try to find out whether the classical authors statements could have been true. The conclusion drawn is that much of the facts in the classical texts are substantiated by material remains, but some information cannot be proved. Furthermore, the archaeological evidence provides us with facts of the Iron Age religion which was not mentioned by the classical authors.
Denna uppsats berör religion under järnåldern i Storbritannien. Den består av en jämförelse mellan klassiska källor och arkeologiskt material. Målet är att får reda på huruvida påståenden av klassiska författare om religionen i Storbritannien under järnåldern kan ha stämt. Mycket av det de klassiska författarna skrev kan stödjas av arkeologiska bevis, men en del har inget stöd i det arkeologiska materialet. Dock ger oss materiella lämningar information om religionen under järnåldern i Storbritannien, som inte nämndes av de klassiska författarna.

Full text
Abstract:

This thesis analyzes the utility of Finite Element Analysis (FEA) in testing strength trends in Type A, Ci, Dii, F, and G swords described by the Sandars Bronze Age Aegean classification. Comparing sword composition of a variety of alloys and using three-dimensional models of each sword type, I evaluate the strength and resilience of each sword shape form in thrusting and hacking impact and shearing under a series of force intervals. The results of these tests suggest that there is performance variability between the sword types and that the sword forms generally correlate with an increase in strength over time. Furthermore, the tests suggest that the alloy and temper of the sword have a significant impact on the sword’s strength. This indicates that a sword’s form was based on more than mere prestige and had clear functional characteristics. Further testing on alloy and temper type use over time is necessary.

Baker, Abigail. "Ancient narratives in the modern museum : interpreting classical archaeology in British museums." Thesis, Birkbeck (University of London), 2015. http://bbktheses.da.ulcc.ac.uk/130/.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis considers how the stories preserved in Greek and Roman texts have been used in British museums from the early nineteenth century to the present. It explores the tendency to prioritise textual over visual information which is easy to overlook when dealing with object-based institutions. It demonstrates the pervasive effect that ancient texts and the narratives they convey have had on the way museums think about individual objects, wider history and their own role as public institutions. A series of case studies offer snapshots of the relationship between object and text at different times and places: how ancient texts were used to articulate a political and public role for the Elgin marbles; how public and academic interest in myth inspired innovative museum interpretation in the work of Charles Newton, Jane Harrison, Heinrich Schliemann and Arthur Evans; how collecting at the Fitzwilliam museum demonstrates the difficulties of escaping ancient narratives, even for those committed to object-based approaches; and how an exhibition of Greek Art in World War Two used ancient images and texts alongside each other in ways that idealised Greek art and freedom, while also revealing unease about the relationship between image and text in ancient sources. By looking at these through broader intellectual and social themes it develops a history with continuity as well as contrasts. Several of the case studies visit completely new ground for the history of museums, but even the most familiar moments in collecting history can be understood in new ways through an awareness of how deeply our understanding of ancient objects has been shaped by ancient narratives. I build on contemporary interest in the active role of museums in constituting our understanding of the past by treating the museum as a site of textual reception and an active participant in a tradition.

Walker, Meggan Ruth. "A Critical Analysis of Gendered Approaches to Funerary, Settlement and Public Space Archaeology in the Classical World." Thesis, Department of Archaeology, 2016. http://hdl.handle.net/2123/18758.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis is a critical analysis of the methods and application of gendered research in classical archaeology, with specific focus on funerary, settlement and public space archaeology. This study concentrates on the archaeological work conducted at three selected case study sites across the Mediterranean. For the funerary archaeology case study, the Pantanello Necropolis was selected, for settlement archaeology, Olynthus and for public space archaeology, the Athenian Acropolis. Through the analysis of research conducted at these sites, I intend to compare archaeological approaches to gender in classical archaeology to the rest of the discipline, with the aim of providing commentary on the past, present and future state of gendered analysis in the discipline. Gender theories began to be applied to archaeological studies on a wider scale in the 1980s, with the work of primarily Scandinavian and North American scholars. This thesis considers how gendered analysis has come into archaeology, specifically that of the classical world, and how notions of gender have changed and been changed by archaeological research. While this thesis positions itself as a critical analysis, it is intended to be a critique in the most productive sense of the word, emphasising good practices and methodologies for future elaboration and use.

Full text
Abstract:
The principal aim of this study is to apply various methods of numeric classification and ordination (commonly used by archaeologists) to the incidence matrix of stamps occurring on medieval bells from England, and to compare the results with what is known independently about these data from documentary sources. The incidence matrix records the presence of 1116 stamps on 3390 bells. Recorded bells have been assigned to 89 different founders, 51 of whom have bells appearing in the incidence matrix. Three varieties of cluster analysis and correspondence analysis have been applied to this matrix. These analyses reveal clusters of bells and stamps relating to particular founders and foundries, and the relative chronological sequence in which the bells were cast and the stamps used. The success of each technique in defining these clusters and sequences accurately has been tested quantitatively by comparing the results of each analysis with the documentary record. For this to be valid, it is vital that the link between the documentary evidence and the surviving bells is rigorous and explicit. The criteria which have been used to link these two types of data are discussed in Chapter 2. The results of the different mathematical approaches are given in Chapters 3 and 4. Only k-means cluster analysis provides results which are consistently in disagreement with the documentary evidence. The other techniques allocate between two-thirds and three quarters of bells or stamps accurately to clusters which relate to particular founders or foundries. Correspondence analysis has proven particularly successful at identifying clusters of bells which relate to foundries. The techniques have been less successful at identifying accurate chronological series of bells or stamps, with other sources of variation predominating. Finally, some indication of the potential for such analyses to illuminate our understanding of the English medieval bellfounding industry is provided.

Full text
Abstract:

This paper deals with the character of Penelope, in Homer’s Odyssey, of her power and worth.Also how female power and worth were measured in Homeric society, which was a world ruled by men. Penelope is unique because she survived in a male dominated world without any magical power, but by her own strength. She protects her family and home from her enemies. This dissertation will explore Penelope’s realm of power, how much authority she had and what means she used, and also how her actions and character measures her worth as awoman. She will be both compared to other female characters and to the standards of a patriarchal society.Classical sources and modern sources will be analyzed and compared, to understand hidden meanings, popular discussions and new theories. Also lexical Greek word asοἶκος, μῆτις and κλέος will be explored and linked to Penelope’s power and worth.

Abstract:
Although it certainly comes with a unique set of challenges, the small number of projects carried out across Southeast Asia to date have demonstrated the efficacy that settlement archaeology holds for expanding on our traditional understandings of the region’s pre-industrial state formations. This discussion presents a brief historiography of the settlement archaeology projects that have focused on the “classical” states of Southeast Asia, and in doing so highlights the theories, methods, applications, and outcomes of these investigations. The need for more excavations to be carried out in the context of commoner habitation sites is underscored. အ ခြေ ေျ ခေ ထို င် ြေ င်း များ ခေ့ ော ော ရာ တွ င် စိ ေ် ခေါ် မှု များ စွာ ရှိ ခေ မ ည် ြြ စ် ခော် ေ ည်း၊ အခရှ့ခတာင် အာရှခေေတွင်ြြုေုြ်ေဲ့ကြေည့် ေုခတေေေုြ်ငေ်းအေည်းငယ်မှ ထွြ်ခြါ်ောခော နှစ်ေြ်တမ်း တွြ်ေျြ်မှုများေည် မမို့ြြမထွေ်းြားမီအခကြာင်းအ ရာများြို ြိုမိုေားေည်ေခောခြါြ်ောခစရေ် အတွြ် အခထာြ်အြူြြုေျြ်ရှိေည်။ ယေုခွွးခနွးတင်ြြမည့် အခြေေျခေထိုင်ြေင်းွိုင်ရာ ခရှးခောင်းေုခတေေခေ့ောမှုေ မိုင်းအြျဉ်းေျုြ်ေည် အခရှ့ခတာင်အာရှခေေရှိ ဂန္ထဝင်တွင်ခော မမို့ြြနိုင်ငံကြီးများြို အဓိြထားခေ့ောထားမြီး၊ ေီအိုရီများ၊ ေည်းေမ်းများ၊ ေြ်ခတွ့ခွာင်ရွြ် ေျြ်များနှင့် ထွြ်ခြါ်ောေည့် ရေေ်များြို တင်ြြမည်ြြစ်ြါေည်။ ခရှးခေတ်ောမာေ်အရြ်ေားများ ၏ အိမ်ယာအခြေေျခေထိုင်မှုများြို ခြာ်ထုတ်နိုင်ရေ်အတွြ် ထြ်မံေိုအြ်ခေမည့် တူးခြာ်ခေ့ောခရး ေုြ်ငေ်းများအခကြာင်းြို တင်ြြေွားမည်ြြစ်ြါေည်။

Abstract:
In Russian archaeology radiocarbon dating is used in very rare cases when antiquities from historical periods are studied based on coin finds and historical sources which have their own historical chronology. However, this arrangement does not always work, as some graves do not contain items that can be dated to a narrow time span while a great number of graves often have no funerary offerings at all. The State Historical Museum in Moscow houses archaeological materials from the Phanagoria necropolis excavated in 1936. Phanagoria is is the largest city of the Classical period and the early medieval period (540 BC–10th century). The collection from the necropolis excavations has preserved organic carbon-containing finds from grave 21 (the wood served to make a coffin – juniper, and sea algae). These materials were selected for AMS-dating. The following results were obtained: wood: 342–420 calAD, sea algae – 132–241 calAD. Of particular interest is the impression of the coin of the Roman Emperor Valens (364–378) found in this grave. The AMS-date of the coffin wood fully confirms the traditional archaeological dating of the finds whereas the coin offers an opportunity to narrow down the timeline of the grave to several decades (375–420). The older age of sea algae is caused by a marine reservoir effect which must be taken into account during the verification of the radiocarbon age of the consumers the food intake of which probably included algae.
