“Brian Hayden was one of the pioneers who brought the archaeology of feasting to prominence, and this impressive and important book distills more than twenty-five years of his research and reflection. Even if one demurs from the cultural ecology theoretical orientation, this is an exceptional achievement that sets a benchmark for anyone interested in feasts.”

“The Power of Feasts is a thought-provoking tour de force conveying Hayden’s broad knowledge and salient ideas on archaeology, ethnography, and social change, positing feasting as a major means of provoking social inequality and instigating the origins of agriculture in the human past.

Yannis Hamilakis Author of Archaeology and the Senses The Archaeology and the Senses brings together two broad areas of research that interest me for a long time: the body on the one hand, and the socio-politcs of the past and the genealogy of archaeology on the other. It is also a statement on the links between sensoriality, matter, and experience, which I hope will resonate with concerns in many other fields beyond archaeology, as well as with contemporary art and performance.

The Power of Feasts From Prehistory to the Present Brian Hayden

Hamilton College, New York

Simon Fraser University, British Columbia

and William Andrefsky, Jr

In this book, Brian Hayden provides the first comprehensive, theoretical work on the history of feasting in archaeological and ethnographic perspective. The Power of Feasts chronicles the evolution of feasting behavior from its first perceptible prehistoric presence to modern industrial times in order to understand the social and political structures of past societies.

Washington State University

This collection of essays brings together several different evolutionary perspectives to demonstrate how lithic technological systems are a by-product of human behavior. The essays cover a range of topics, including human behavioral ecology, cultural transmission, phylogenetic analysis, macroevolution, and various applications of evolutionary ecology.

‘Like a biface, this useful book about stone tool analysis has three sides, describing three evolutionary approaches to lithic assemblages: selectionist, human behavioral ecology and cultural transmission. Those lithic analysts interested in the application of evolutionary theory must read this book, and all the others should read it.’

Globalizations and the Ancient World Justin Jennings Royal Ontario Museum

In this book, Justin Jennings argues that globalization is not just a modern phenomenon.

Using the Uruk, Mississippian, and Wari civilizations as case studies, Jennings examines how the growth of the world’s

‘Jennings provides a lucid argument supported by archaeological data and a compelling case for a unified approach that eliminates artificial distinctions between past and present.

The Cambridge World Prehistory Edited by Colin Renfrew University of Cambridge

and Paul Bahn

The Cambridge World Prehistory provides a systematic and authoritative examination of the prehistory of every region around the world from the early days of human origins in Africa two million years ago to the beginnings of written history, which in some areas started only two centuries ago. Written by a team of leading international scholars, the volumes include both traditional topics and cutting-edge approaches, such as archaeolinguistics and molecular genetics, and examine the essential questions of human development around the world. The volumes are organised geographically, exploring the evolution of hominins and their expansion from Africa, as well as the formation of states and development in each region of different technologies such as seafaring, metallurgy and food production. The Cambridge World Prehistory reveals a rich and complex history of the world.

It will be an invaluable resource for any student or scholar of archaeology and related disciplines looking to research

Edited by Michael Maas Rice University, Houston

This book considers the great cultural and geopolitical changes in western Eurasia in the fifth century CE. It focuses on the Roman Empire, but also examines the changes taking place in northern Europe, in Iran under the Sasanian Empire, and on the great Eurasian steppe. Attila is presented as a contributor to, and a symbol of, these transformations.

‘This work is transformational.

Although focused on the Roman Empire, it also encompasses Eurasia, including the geopolitical dilemmas of Iran. Systematic treatment of subjects ranging from law and learning to climate change and mass migration serves to calibrate the Huns’ impact and identifies a shift in the stance of classical civilizations toward steppe peoples, from aloofness to fertile interaction.’

Archaeology of Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and the Pacific full-color images of artifacts, paintings, and architectural structures complete this unique reference work.

Advance praise: ‘Michael Shin and his colleagues have done us an essential and estimable service with this beautiful, fascinating and illuminating work.

The illustrations are superb, and when accompanied by the authors’ excellent commentary and analysis, Korean History in Maps becomes not just an invaluable book, but a keepsake. It opens new, sparkling and indelible images and windows on the entire Korean experience from (Old) Joseon to the present. The paucity of similar books, at least in English, makes this a milestone in the literature on Korean history.’

The Roman Forum was in many ways the heart of the Roman Empire. Today, the Forum exists in a fragmentary state, having been destroyed and plundered by barbarians, aristocrats,

Classical archaeology citizens and priests over the past two millennia. Enough remains, however, for archaeologists to reconstruct its spectacular buildings and monuments.

This richly illustrated volume provides an architectural history of the central section of the Roman Forum during the Empire (31 BCE–476 CE), from the Temple of Julius Caesar to the monuments on the slope of the Capitoline hill. Bringing together stateof-the-art technology in architectural illustration and the expertise of a prominent Roman archaeologist, this book offers a unique reconstruction of the Forum, providing architectural history, a summary of each building’s excavation and research, scaled digital plans, elevations, and reconstructed aerial images that not only shed light on the Forum’s history but vividly bring it to life. With this book, scholars, students, architects and artists will be able to visualize for the first time since antiquity the character, design and appearance of the famous heart of ancient Rome.

Contributors discuss in depth a range of topics that motivate and structure Mediterranean archaeology today, including insularity and connectivity; mobility, migration, and colonization; hybridization and cultural encounters; materiality, memory, and identity; community and household; life and death; and ritual and ideology. The volume’s broad coverage of different approaches and contemporary archaeological practices will help practitioners of Mediterranean archaeology to move the subject forward in new and dynamic ways. Together, the essays in this volume shed new light on the people, ideas, and materials that

‘A magnificently multi-faceted, intellectually challenging collection of scholarly voices and interpretations that matches the complexity and dynamism of the Bronze and Iron Age Mediterranean itself. This book will be a stimulus to fresh thinking in and beyond the Middle Sea for many years to come, as well as an ideal point of access for the less familiar.’

Costume in the Comedies of Aristophanes

Viewing Inscriptions in the Late Antique and Medieval World

Gwendolyn Compton-Engle

Edited by Antony Eastmond

John Carroll University

Courtauld Institute of Art, London

This book interprets the handling of costume in the plays of the ancient Greek comic playwright Aristophanes, using as evidence the surviving plays as well as vase-paintings and terracotta figurines. This book fills a gap in the study of ancient Greek drama, focusing on performance, gender, and the body.

This book considers the visual qualities of inscriptions, demonstrating the information to be gleaned from considering them as non-textual, visual devices. Using a cross-cultural perspective, and covering the period from Late Antiquity to the Middle Ages, it discusses topics including real and pseudo-writing, multilingual inscriptions, graffiti, writing disguised as images and images disguised as words.

It provides a comprehensive study of major monuments, including exciting new material that has been discovered in recent years and has transformed the field. It also offers a critical overview of scholarly debates and controversies on aspects of style, iconography, technique and cultural context. This volume provides an up-to-date and muchneeded overview of the monuments that are now known and of the ideas that have been generated about them.

Advance praise: ‘This richly illustrated, up-to-date overview is superbly written by a cast of stars. Filled with recent discoveries, there is something new of importance for every scholar and student of ancient Mediterranean painting.’

The Art and Archaeology of Ancient Greece Judith M. Barringer University of Edinburgh

This richly illustrated, four-colour textbook introduces the art and archaeology of ancient Greece, from the Bronze Age through the Roman conquest. Emphasizing context and function, Barringer explores the purpose and use of buildings and objects within their particular time and place, leading students to a rich sociohistorical understanding of Greek art.

Advance praise: ‘This book is a superb resource for students and teachers of ancient Greek art specifically and the ancient Greek world as a whole. Barringer strikes an ideal balance between brevity and depth, leaving just enough room between the sentences for dialogue, discussion, and discourse. No mere survey, this important new text goes out of its way to problematize traditional narratives and point to the hidden riches and complexities of the field.’

Hellenistic and Roman Ideal Sculpture The Allure of the Classical Rachel Meredith Kousser Brooklyn College, City University of New York

Kousser builds on recent scholarship to offer a unique analysis of Hellenistic and Roman sculptures. Unlike other books, she focuses on the reception rather than the creation of works of art, giving readings of important monuments integrating their analysis with less wellstudied ones such as German provincial relics.

‘Kousser demonstrates how careful iconographic analysis of the material can be insightful and help us understand better the importance of sculpture in specific contexts.’

Art in the Hellenistic World An Introduction Andrew Stewart University of California, Berkeley

This textbook offers a new thematic, contextualized, and richly illustrated approach to Hellenistic art for advanced undergraduate and pre-MA students in art history, classics, history, and humanities. Helpful ancillary features include maps, excerpts from Hellenistic literature, appendices, a glossary, a timeline, biographies of key figures, and suggestions for further reading.

‘Arranging his material with far-reaching originality by key preoccupations in Hellenistic art – power, victory, benefaction, prowess, wisdom, piety, desire, luxury, difference and death – Stewart brilliantly contextualizes and analyzes its wealth. He offers a fascinating and reliable study for our times and beyond, wearing his magisterial learning lightly and wittily.’

Vase Painting, Gender, and Social Identity in Archaic Athens

The Mythology of Kingship in Neo-Assyrian Art

Mark D. Stansbury-O’Donnell

Mehmet-Ali Ataç

University of St Thomas, Minnesota

Bryn Mawr College, Pennsylvania

This study explores the phenomenon of spectators through a database built from a census of the Corpus Vasorum Antiquorum, which reveals that the figures flourished in Athenian vase painting during the last two-thirds of the sixth century BCE.

The relief slabs that decorated the palaces of the Neo-Assyrian Empire, which emphasized military conquest and royal prowess, have traditionally been understood as statements of imperial propaganda that glorified the Assyrian king. Here, Mehmet-Ali Ataç argues that the reliefs hold a deeper meaning that was addressed primarily to an internal audience composed of court scholars and master craftsmen.

‘This book will stimulate graduate students and scholars interested in the viewing and reading not just of Athenian pottery but of the ancient visual arts in general. While the author notes that his work is only the beginning, he addresses figures that often have been neglected, thus demonstrating the possibility that they have something to tell us about the ancient world. In short, StansburyO’Donnell has given us new and vital directions to explore in the study of decorated pottery.’

A Social Archaeology of Households in Neolithic Greece An Anthropological Approach Stella G. Souvatzi

This volume addresses the household as a process and as a conceptual and analytical means through which we can interpret social organization. Using detailed case studies from Neolithic Greece and drawing on contemporary social theory and thought, Souvatzi examines how the household is defined socially, culturally and historically.

‘This is a useful book that adds much to our current understandings of the household. It will be of interest to those studying the Neolithic and to those interested in the variable nature of housing and households more generally.’

‘Eve’s book gives a synoptic and multi-layered overview of many of the different factors at play in scholarly communication in the humanities, and offers valuable suggestions about how a transition to open access in the humanities might take better account of these factors, bringing much needed critical and constructive reflection to the contemporary pursuit of a long held dream. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the future of open access and scholarly communication in the humanities, and a rallying call for more researchers to join those working to shape this future.’

Ohio State University

The first global study by a historian to fully integrate the earth-system approach of the new climate science with the material history of humanity.

‘Think of this as travel writing of the highest order. A rough journey for mankind becomes a stimulating armchair adventure for the reader.

This is big history, framed by big ideas but anchored in the very recent explosion of knowledge about climate through the ages and about our history and prehistory. Brooke

Also of interest skillfully navigates the interpretive hazards of proxy paleoclimate data.

In Brooke’s persuasive account, our evolution to modernity is not absolutely determined by climate and disease, but it has been substantially influenced by them. Our new knowledge shows that quite often these influences abruptly change course, and Brooke shows that much of our history is a consequence of societies scrambling to adjust.’

Mark A. Cane, G. Unger Vetlesen Professor of Earth and Climate Sciences, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University
