Resumen: La viajera biografía del emperador Adria­no se suele agrupar en dos grandes giras. La primera se realizó entre los años 121 y 126 y concernió principalmente a Occidente. La segunda se hizo principalmente por Oriente y afectó fundamentalmente a algunas de las principales ciudades de Asia Menor, Capa­docia, Siria, Judea y Egipto. En medio de su primera gran gira, Adriano, en el año 124, se inició en Eleusis, en las cercanías de Atenas, y en asociación con Hércules. Al principio de la segunda gira, en el año 128 y tras visitar África, el emperador participó en otros ritos mistéricos en E

Abstract:
Abstract Although ancient Olympia is usually viewed as a Classical Greek site, most buildings that are visible nowadays were not there yet when Pindar celebrated famous victors or Peisistratos and Alcibiades won their races. More generally, even though new research has substantially improved our knowledge, the early history of the site is often still neglected in introductory presentations of the site. In this article some important main issues are discussed. First, new excavations have revealed that Bronze Age occupation of the area cannot be connected to the later cult, as some scholars have

Abstract:
The main focus of this paper is to examine the analysis offered of the Temple of Zeus at Olympia by Max Raphael in his study dedicated to the remains of the temple. The temple of Zeus at Olympia is often cited as the canonical example of Doric temple architecture and Raphael examines how a particular design can have such far ranging influence, to which end he elucidates the relationship of design to the activity of a participatory and democratic process specific to the Greek polis. By bringing to bear a highly dialectical analysis of the various forces at play in both construction and the elab

Abstract:
This article considers the contents of the temple of Hera at Olympia in the light of Pausanias' account and of excavation reports. Of all the temples Pausanias describes, the Heraion is the most crowded, and it is argued that by his day it was acting as a storeroom, primarily for objects from nearby buildings. The implications are assessed for the history of the attribution of the Heraion, and for the use of temples in Pausanias' day.

AbstractThe Eleian manteis who practised at the altar of Zeus in Olympia appear to have belonged to two separate gene, the Iamids and the Klytiads. This paper first considers the identity and number of the Eleian mantic gene and then questions the long-held assumption that the Iamid genos was the first to become established at Olympia. It is argued that the foundation myths that appear in Pindar and Pausanias are probably the result of the embellishment of pre-existing tradition in the Classical and Hellenistic periods.

The past sleeps lightly at Olympia. Recall the opening sequence of Leni Riefenstahl's 1938 film, Olympia. In a misty landscape of ruined buildings, broken columns, and weeds run wild, a Greek temple stands amid the wreckage. Statues appear and then waken to life; a naked athlete throws a discus, another a javelin – this heads towards a bowl of fire. Another naked youth lights the Olympic torch and holds it high. It is carried from hand to hand in a relay and then reaches the stadium in Berlin, home of the 1936 Olympic Games, which the film is meant to celebrate. Adolf Hitler salutes the specta

Abstract:
This essay provides a brief overview and description of the rhythm and sculptural decoration of the Parthenon and the temple of Zeus at Olympia. The two temples are considered typologically Doric. The typology is relativized, however, if differences observed are taken into account, due to the introduction of Ionic and Cycladic elements in the construction of the Parthenon, and the creative pressure exerted by the Temple of Zeus on the Parthenon and vice versa -at least in the sculptural program of Phidias concerning the two monumental statues of Athena and Zeus.

Abstract:
The Bekaa Valley, Lebanon, is famous worldwide due to the magnificent temple of Heliopolitan Jupiter at Baalbek. In recent years, new research revived the interest in the unsolved problems posed by the Baalbek monuments, including original dating and construction phases, relationships with the landscape, and nature of the cult practiced. In a preliminary paper, we used archaeoastronomy to propose that the project of the Temple of Jupiter was a unified one conceived under Herod the Great, and that the cult was strongly connected to the renewal of the seasonal cycles.

This thesis focusses on the Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus on the Capitoline Hill in Rome. It deconstructs what is proposed as the ‘myth’ of the Archaic temple in order to argue that the sixth century structure as we understand it should be understood as an Augustan literary construct. The Augustan ideological reconstruction of the temple is closely examined to demonstrate that there was a deliberate program designed to lessen the significance of the temple within the city of Rome in the late first century BC. This myth of the Archaic temple has pervaded modern scholarship particula

Most studies of Roman architecture cover the third century BCE to the fourth century CE, a period of luxurious building projects like the Colosseum and Pantheon that remain relatively well documented in the archaeological and literary record. Yet Rome did not spring fully formed from the ground in the third century, its architecture relying entirely on precursors and precedents in buildings from far away times and places. In this study I fit remains of architecture from early Rome (ca. 650 to 450 BCE) into the cultural framework of the contemporaneous Mediterranean and try to assess how the c

This chapter presents a quantitative reconstruction of temple building during the fourth and third centuries, evaluating the scale of the monumental intervention into Rome's topography and the labor demands that it triggered. The temple constructions of the middle Republic exemplify a social commitment to smallness — repetitive smallness. When it comes to size, no temple that was erected during the middle Republic compares to the Capitoline Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus. Yet what the middle Republic lacks in the size of its temple foundations it makes up for in their sheer number, and in t

The statue was the focus of the sanctuary at Olympia, where Heracles (Hercules) was said to have initiated four yearly games in honour of the god. Zeus’s skin was represented by ivory, traded down from Central Africa, and the gold used for his hair and clothes was obtained from deposits around the Aegean. In his hand, he held a victory figure made of glass. The sanctuary lay beside the Alpheios River, on a stream terrace formed by th

This chapter focuses on the three reconstructions of the temple of Jupiter Capitolinus. Examining the archaeological, textual, and visual evidence for the appearance of the Catulan, Vespasianic, and Domitianic versions of the temple, it charts how the Capitolium became physically larger and materially grander with each phase. In this way, it is possible to see how the temple retained its nominal identity and accumulated historical associations, while the architecture of the original building was not preserved. Particular attention is also given to the consistent retention of the original footp

Abstract The Temple of Jupiter Heliopolitanus in Baalbek-Heliopolis is one of the largest temple complexes anywhere in the Roman world. Heliopolis lies in the northern Bekaa Valley, known for its agriculture both today and under Rome. The archaeological record from the Bekaa in the Hellenistic period is sketchy, but historical sources describe Seleucid and Ptolemaic competition for the region before the rise of the Ituraeans. Much previous scholarship has presupposed great antiquity for the cult of Jupiter Heliopolitanus and links to ancient Semitic deities. However, recent surveys and excavat
