Anyone involved in the study of ancient Iudaea/Palaestina and its vicinity has felt the need for a comprehensive work containing all the inscriptions in various languages found in the region. The lack of such a work was all the more regrettable, as the material concerns not only those interested in the region, but also students of a great variety of related subjects, such as the history of the ancient Near East, ancient Jewish history and early Christianity, and, of course, historians of the Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine periods. The inscriptions are presented within their specific context, and complemented by a translation and commentary; where available, the texts are accompanied by a reproduction

"For the first time, this book presents the complete collection of Greek inscriptions of Gebel el-Silsila East - Ancient Egypt's largest and most important sandstone quarry, including lists of names and professions of individuals involved in the quarry expeditions. The inscriptions are de- scribed, illustrated and analysed and placed within their archaeological context based on careful documentation in situ with up-to-date methodology. The work makes substantial new contributions in the form of new and improved readings and interpretations of known texts and of the new publication of texts discovered through the fieldwork. It is the first volume of three dealing with Graeco-Roman inscriptions on the east bank, with the following two volumes to cover the demotic texts and quarry marks respectively."-- Provided by publisher.

Der Karl-Christ-Preis ist dem Andenken an den Marburger Althistoriker Karl Christ gewidmet (1923-2008). Mit dem Preis werden seit 2013 herausragende wissenschaftliche Leistungen auf dem Gebiet der Alten Geschichte und ihrer Nachbardisziplinen sowie der Wissenschafts- und Rezeptionsgeschichte des Altertums ausgezeichnet. Der fünfte Preisträger ist Klaus Hallof. Der brillante Epigraphiker hat sich sein ganzes Forscherleben um das Griechische Inschriftenwerk der Berliner Akademie, die Inscriptiones Graecae, verdient gemacht. Auch unter den schwierigen Bedingungen in der DDR hat er mit grosser innerer Unabhängigkeit altertumswissenschaftliche Grundlagenarbeit geleistet und Quellen erschlossen, ohne die neue Erkenntnisse in der Alten Geschichte nicht zu erzielen sind. Als vorzüglicher Wissenschaftler und erfolgreicher Wissenschaftsorganisator hat er nach der Wende das griechische Inschriftenwerk in ein Vorzeigeprojekt der altertumswissenschaftlichen Unternehmungen der Berliner Akademie verwandelt. Immer wieder hat er sich zudem mit der Geschichte seines Faches beschäftigt und damit die wissenschaftsgeschichtlichen Forschungen Karl Christs fortgesetzt. Den Vortrag, den Klaus Hallof zur Verleihung am 2. April 2022 hielt, widmete sich dem Thema: "Kos 243 v. Chr. Ein europäisches Projekt" und ist hier zusammen mit Stefan Rebenichs Laudatio auf den Preisträger veröffentlicht.--provided by publisher

• Index

"This book, built around the study of the representation of age and identity in 23,000 Latin funerary epitaphs from the Western Mediterranean in the Roman era, sets out how the use of age in inscriptions, and in turn, time, varied across this region. Discrepancies between the use of time to represent identity in death allow readers to begin to understand the differences between the cultures of Roman Italy and contemporary societies in North Africa, Spain, and southern Gaul. The analysis focuses on the timescapes of cemeteries, a key urban phenomenon, in relation to other markers of time, including the Roman invention of the birthday, the revering of the dead at the Parentalia and the topoi of life's stages. In doing so, the book contributes to our understanding of gender, the city, the family, the role of the military, freed slaves, and cultural change during this period. The concept of the timescape is seen to have varied geographically across the Mediterranean, bringing into question claims of cultural unity for the Western Mediterranean as a region. Mediterranean Timescapes is of interest to students and scholars of Roman history and archaeology, particularly that of the Western Mediterranean, and ancient social history"-- Provided by publisher

"Fondée en 1995, la Société Française d'Épigraphie sur Rome et le monde romain est née de la volonté de spécialistes de l'histoire romaine de donner une tribune aux chercheurs français pour promouvoir et échanger leurs points de vue sur des documents épigraphiques latins ou grecs, éclairant et renouvelant les connaissances sur l'Antiquité romaine. Elle est l'une des trois sociétés de ce type qui existe au monde avec la British Epigraphy Society au Royaume-Uni et l'American Society of Greek and Roman Epigraphy aux États-Unis, qui rassemble aussi des chercheurs canadiens. Elle est affiliée à L'Association Internationale d'Épigraphie Grecque et Latine, AIEGL, dont elle s'est inspirée. Les séances organisées par la Société ont permis de présenter des dossiers inédits, d'examiner des méthodes, mais aussi les approches très différentes qui sont exploitées par les épigraphistes, depuis l'étude prosopographique classique jusqu'à des analyses plus récentes d'histoire quantitative, d'anthropologie et d'histoire culturelle. Les études présentées rappellent dans un premier temps la naissance et l'histoire de cette Société savante qui a vu le jour il y a un quart de siècle. C'est l'occasion de se souvenir du rôle pionnier des fondateurs, sous les auspices bienveillants d'André Chastagnol, de l'action déterminante de Claude Lepelley, premier président, ou de rendre hommage à la mémoire de Jean-Louis Ferrary, ancien président, décédé l'année anniversaire. Dans un deuxième temps, d'anciens présidents de la Société ont exposé leur réflexion à travers des dossiers thématiques ou par des cas précis, reflétant la richesse des débats historiographiques et des progrès scientifiques. Enfin, un troisième volet accueille les contributions de collègues étrangers qui ont participé au foisonnement culturel de la Société, mettant en exergue les échanges internationaux qu'elle a engendrés et favorisés."--Page 4 of cover.

This volume, with origins in a panel at the 2018 Celtic Conference in Classics, presents creative new approaches to epigraphic material, in an attempt to 'shake up' how we deal with inscriptions. Broad themes include the embodied experience of epigraphy, the unique capacities of epigraphic language as a genre, the visuality of inscriptions and the interplay of inscriptions with literary texts. Although each chapter focuses on specific objects and epigraphic landscapes, ranging from Republican Rome to early modern Scotland, the emphasis here is on using these case studies not as an end in themselves, but as a means of exploring broader methodological and theoretical issues to do with how we use inscriptions as evidence, both for the Greco-Roman world and for other time periods. Drawing on conversations from fields such as archaeology and anthropology, philology, art history, linguistics and history, contributors also seek to push the boundaries of epigraphy as a discipline and to demonstrate the analytical fruits of interdisciplinary approaches to inscribed material. Methodologies such as phenomenology, translingualism, intertextuality and critical fabulation are deployed to offer new perspectives on the social functions of inscriptions as texts and objects and to open up new horizons for the use of inscriptions as evidence for past societies.

Thousands of Greek verse epitaphs, covering a millennium of history, survive inscribed or painted on stone. These largely anonymous poems shed rich light on areas such as ancient moral values, religious ideas, gender relations and attitudes, as well as on the transmission and reception of 'canonical' poetry; many of these poems are of very high literary quality. This is the first modern commentary on a selection of these poems. Problems of syntax, metre and language are fully explained, accompanied by sophisticated literary discussion of the poems. There is a full introduction to the nature of these poems and to their context within Greek ideas of death and the afterlife. This comprehensive edition will be of interest to advanced undergraduates and graduate students studying Greek literature, as well as to scholars.
