Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Review "This beautifullyproduced volume forms part of the rapidly expanding series of publications resulting from the longterm fieldwork directed by Joseph Coleman Carter across the hinterland (chora) of the Greek colony of Metaponto, on the instep of the Italian boot...In summary, this is an exemplary report: wellcontextualised, neatly summarised, beautifullyillustrated (especially the maps), and well worth the wait." (Antiquity 20130601) Product Description This volume in the Institute of Classical Archaeologys series on rural settlements in the countryside (chora) of Metaponto presents the excavation of the Late Roman farmhouse at San Biagio. Located near the site of an earlier Greek sanctuary, this modest but wellappointed structure was an unexpected find from a period generally marked by large landholdings and monumental villas. Description of earlier periods of occupation (Neolithic and Greek) is followed by a detailed discussion of the farmhouse itself and its historical and socioeconomic context. The catalogs and analyses of finds include impressive deposits of coins from the late third and early fourth centuries AD. Use of virtual reality CAD software has yielded a deeper understanding of the architectural structure and its reconstruction. A remarkable feature is the small bath complex, with its examples of window glass. This study reveals the existence of a small but viable rural social and economic entity and alternative to the traditional image of crisis and decline during the Late Imperial period.
