About This Item
Oxbow Books. Very Good with no dust jacket. 2013. Hardcover. 1842174622 . Light bumping to spine ends. Light rubbing to boards. Tiny ding near base of spine. Oversized. ; This richly illustrated volume discusses the histories of the port city of Butrint, and its intimate connection to the wider conditions of the Adriatic. In so doing it is a reading, and re-reading, of the site that adds significantly to the study of Mediterranean urban history over the longue durée . Firstly, the book proposes a new paradigm for the development-history of Butrint - based on discussions of the latest archaeological, historical and landscape studies from approximately 20 new excavations and surveys, together covering a temporal arch from prehistory to the early modern period. Secondly, it examines how the perception of the city influenced the archaeological methodology of 20th-century studies of the site, where iteration and reversal were often being applied in equal measure. In this it asks important questions on the management of heritage sites and the contemporary role of archaeological practise. ; Butrint Archaeological Monographs; 250 pages; Overseas Shipping Extra. .
