Roman Period Statuettes in the Netherlands and Beyond: Representation and Ritual Use in Context
ISBN: 9789463729383 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The subject of this study is a relatively rare category of artefacts, bronze and terracotta statuettes that represent deities, human figures and animals. They were introduced in the northwestern provinces by Roman troops from the end of the 1st century BCE onwards. The statuettes have been recovered from military and non-military settlements, the surrounding landscape and, to a far lesser extent, from sanctuaries and graves. Until now, their meaning and function have seldom been analysed in relation to their find-spots. Contrary to traditional studies, they have been examined as one separate...

Excavating the Lost Colony Mystery: The Map, the Search, the Discovery
ISBN: 9781469673752 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The fate of Sir Walter Raleigh's 1587 "Lost Colony" on Roanoke Island has been one of the most enduring mysteries in the history of European settlement in North America.

But in the early 1990s, archaeologists at Roanoke opened fresh lines of inquiry, and in 2012 the search for evidence gained new momentum when a reexamination of an Elizabethan map revealed a hidden...
