Abstract:
The decoration of the Vestibule of the Chapel of Hatshepsut in the queen’s temple in Deir el-Bahari resembles the decoration of the square antechamber known from the pyramid temples of the Old and Middle Kingdoms. However, the original decorative program of the vestibule, especially with regard to the processions of divinities, is obscured by changes and damage attributable to different periods. Two new blocks, proposed for the west wall of the vestibule, contribute new information on the relief decoration from the time of Hatshepsut.

Abstract:
The paper discusses the decoration of pottery of the Neolithic Jomon culture (Japanese Archipelago, 13600–900 BC). The comb-impressed pattern produced by various kinds of cord or rope stamps is considered as the ‘calling card’ of Jomon pottery from the earliest cultural periods to the latest. Another kind of decoration recognized recently uses the cord not as a patterning tool, but as an essential motif of decorative composition. High relief elements imitate cordage forms and structures – knots, loops, hanging cord, net, etc. This kind of decoration corresponds to the pottery of Mid-dle Jomon

Abstract:
The decoration of Hellenistic houses can be understood in terms of hierarchies, which marked out the relative importance of the rooms and spaces in the house. In mosaics, the hierarchy is related to the materials used and the complexity of the design; wall painting is capable of expressing more subtle distinctions, through a combination of colours, motifs, decorative friezes, and architectural features in stucco relief. Surviving houses from Delos, Morgantina and Monte Iato are analysed in detail to explain how their decoration might have worked, and from these examples some conclusions are dr

The article is about damages to the architecture and wall decoration of niches in the Vestibule of Hatshepsut in the Royal Mortuary Cult Complex. Traces of ancient repairs may be discerned in the distorted layers of limestone blocks and deformed relief. The nature of this restoration indicates that it took place once the sculpting of the reliefs had been completed but before the painting. The reasons for this can be related to the short building time of the temple.

Abstract:
This chapter first discusses the new style of imagery and ornament that emerged during the fifth century BC. The new style has been the source of endless controversy since the latter half of the nineteenth century. Strange creatures, part human, part beast, were crafted onto gold and bronze jewelry and cast onto the handles and lids of bronze vessels. Metalsmiths created lush new forms of decoration—incised and relief ornament based on floral motifs such as leaves and petals, with spirals, S-curves, and whirligigs decorating objects ranging from pottery to sword scabbards. This style was a radical departure from the forms of representation and decoration that preceded it. The chapter then sets out the book's purpose, namely to study a two-thousand-year period in Europe, from 2000 BC to the Roman conquests during the last century BC and the first century AD, known by the terms “Bronze Age” and “Iron Age.”

Abstract:
In the grave mound (kurgan) in the Ukraine known as Tolstaya Mogila there was found in 1971 a piece of gold jewellery that has entered the archaeological record as the pectoral of an unknown Scythian king (see Fig. 13.7 below). The collar or pectoral is made up of four torques, enclosing three decorative zones: the overall shape is that of an apotropaic lunula. The decoration is composed in relief, on a background of sheet gold in the middle zone, and as relief-like tableaux of free-standing figures in the upper and lower zones. The three thematically distinct friezes portray, respectively, the life of successful and happy Scythians and their livestock; the blossoming flora of Scythia; and the looming danger of death for all animal and plant life. This menace is embodied by six griffins, bearing down from above on the noble horses of the Scythians. Further motifs in this zone are animal combats with lions, panthers, a stag and boar, as well as hounds hunting hares.

Abstract:
A glass appliqué in the shape a lion's head mask is an example of applied decoration found on late Roman glasses, which may have actually seen extended use as a keepsake or amulet, long after the vessel itself, presumably a globular or conical handled jug or bulbous flagon, had been broken. The medallion in high relief was found during Polish excavations on Kom el-Dikka in 2007, in a cut from the early Islamic period containing fill of mixed date, from late Roman to early Islamic. The paper considers parallels for the piece, both published and unpublished, from excavations in Egypt as well as museum collections worldwide. All are considered to be made in Egyptian workshops and representing traditional “Egyptian” themes, although the idea of decorating glass vessels with applied medallions was hardly a novel idea in the late Roman period and was a continuation of a tradition from Imperial times, but with a different range of motifs. Glass masks of this kind appeared also on other vessels, like glass cinerary urns, for example, and continued to be applied as decoration on late Sassanian and early Islamic products.

Abstract:
The research represents principles of projective-geometric design of illusory spaces and proposes a study about the relief-perspective which featured the applications of science and art to interior decoration and architectural spaces during the sixteenth and the seventeenth century. The research has analyzed a selection of figurative and built illusory spaces, going to deepen the formation of the concepts of perception and illusion. During Renaissance was given emphasis to projective methods, of which were investigated the principles of geometric and optical ones in the proportions and in the visualization of architectural works, and the use of projective system accelerating or slowing the effects of the natural perspective to modify certain environmental aspects, external and internal, to the built volumes. The research also compares two major applications, the relief-perspectives of Francesco Borromini and Giovanni Maria da Bitonto and their partnership in the design of the perspectival tabernacle in Bologna and in the perspectival gallery for the Spada palace in Rome.

Hemispherical “Megarian” bowls, produced from the 3rd to the 1st century BC, were an imported luxury ware common on the tables of the Ptolemaic/Hellenistic elite in Egypt. The collection of 16 vessels of this kind from the Polish excavations at Tell Atrib/Athribis, discovered between 1969 and 1999, is for the most part well stratified, dated contextually by coins and amphora stamp handles to two broader horizons: second half of the 3rd and first half of the 2nd century BC, and the turn of the 2nd century BC. Three variants were distinguished by the author, differentiated by details of the relief decoration. The group of vessels catalogued in this article originated probably from Ionian workshops in Asia Minor.

Abstract:
The Present Volume takes Forward the Study of the Insula of the Menandro started with the architectural analysis of Volume I (1997). It examines the interior decorations (paintings on walls and ceilings, mosaics and other patterned pavements on floors, and stucco relief on ceilings). This is done, as in Volume I, by separating the analytical discussion, which comes first, from a full descriptive catalogue—the counterpart of the architectural gazetteer (Appendix A) of the fiirst volume— which occupies the second half. In the analytical discussion the decorations are tackled from three main viewpoints. A first section deals with typology and chronology. This involves analysing both the general syntax and also individual motifs, using comparanda from other houses at Pompeii and where necessary outside Pompeii, to determine their place within the evolution of the decorative formulae for each medium. In the second section we examine iconography, concentrating especially on mythological scenes and figures which are more than simple stereotypes. These are related to parallels in other houses to establish how far they conform to, or conflict with, the normal patterns of representation, viewed where possible from a chronological standpoint. The final section scrutinizes the relationship of the decorations to the house as a functioning unit. This entails addressing various questions: how mosaics and paintings were adapted to the shape and scale of rooms, to the position of viewers, and to patterns of circulation, how far choices of patterns and subjects may have reflected the uses to which rooms were put, and to what extent such choices justify us in drawing conclusions about the tastes and aspirations of successive householders. Once again we attempt, where possible, to look at these questions in relation to different chronological periods within the houses’ history. One of the most important aspects of our study of the Insula del Menandro is that we are analysing the whole city-block and not (as many other studies have done) isolated houses. But the nature of the material covered by the present volume leads to one major difference in structure in relation to Volume I. Our discussion (but not the catalogue) deals with the houses not in numerical order, that is proceeding counterclockwise round the block, but in a hierarchical order, that is according to size and importance.

The Casa del Menandro was excavated mainly between November 1926 and July 1932. The excavation reports of the 1920s and 1930s often recorded the state of the volcanic deposit: whether the deposit was disturbed or consisted of stratified ash and lapilli; whether finds were associated with an upper floor; and at what level above the pavement finds were made. Given that this large and reportedly ‘noble’ house was considered important by the excavators, they were perhaps more careful here than they had been with Houses I 10,1 and I 10,2–3. Description: fragments of at least 102 small bronze studs, with a flat circular head (diam.: 20 mm) and shaft of square section (max. l.: 15 mm; section: c.2 mm × 2 mm). Present location: Pompeii Collection, CB. Three others in situ in aedicula (inv. no. 4212). Discussion: The light weight of the heads and the shortness and fragility of the shafts indicate that these studs functioned as decoration, rather than structural support, on the wooden latticing of upper part of the aedicula. See discussion on studs. Dimensions: diam.: 1 m; h.: 180 mm. Description: Large sub-hemispherical bronze basin with omphalos at centre and horizontal rim with down-turned edge. Internal omphalos decorated with a floral pattern consisting of three rows of radiating petals. Upper surface of rim ribbed and edged with ovolo pattern. Present location: Pompeii Collection, GF (inv. no. 4261, reinventoried no. 25892).

Discussion: The use of the term labrum for such a vessel is unsubstantiated. Its purpose in the ‘atrium’ was likely to have been largely for display but possibly also for water collection and washing. Dimensions: l.: 305 mm; rim diam.: 172 mm; h.: 50 mm; base diam.: 72 mm; handle l.: 130 mm. Description: Shallow bronze pan, with rolled rim and ring base.

Two finds of unknown provenance, once in the Nani Museum in Venice, seem to be from Narona, a site that provided, along with other Dalmatian places, most of the ancient material preserved in the famous Venetian collection. The first document is an altar now in Piazzola sul Brenta, identified by Mommsen as coming from Dalmatia, likely Narona, on the basis of the formula mentioning a god which is altogether identical to a dedication, now lost, also from Narona. The second find, now in Avignon, is a relief of the Dioscuri. It certainly comes from Narona as a fragment of a slab from the Museum at Vid, reproducing the same rare decorative motif, demonstrates: snakes face an egg. At Narona the cult of the Dioscuri is well documented epigraphically, but also by a relief in which two snakes, but in another position, appear.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper describes a multiblock grid generation method for turbine cooling geometries. The method is based on the observation that cooling films are essentially branches inserted on a large trunk, represented by the passage or by the cooling duct. The small size of the films compared to the overall size of turbine blades allows simplifications to be introduced with respect to general-purpose trunk and branch algorithms. The grid generation starts from an existing layout for the passage or cooling duct grid and operates on a Cartesian patch of the trunk surface. The patch is hollowed
