E-BooksRubbish! The Archaeology of Garbage



Rubbish! The Archaeology of Garbage
William Rathje, "Rubbish!: The Archaeology of Garbage"
English | ISBN: 0816521433 | 2001 | 280 pages | PDF | 22 MB
It is from the discards of former civilizations that archaeologists have reconstructed most of what we know about the past, and it is through their examination of today's garbage that William Rathje and Cullen Murphy inform us of our present. Rubbish! is their witty and erudite investigation into all aspects of the phenomenon of garbage. Rathje and Murphy show what the study of garbage tells us about a population's demographics and buying habits. Along the way, they dispel the common myths about our "garbage crisis"-about fast-food packaging and disposable diapers, about biodegradable garbage and the acceleration of the average family's garbage output. They also suggest methods for dealing with the garbage that we do have.

AD 410 The History and Archaeology of Late and post-Roman Britain
Rob Collins, Keith J. Fitzpatrick-Matthews, Sam Moorhead, "AD 410: The History and Archaeology of Late and post-Roman Britain"
English | 2014 | ISBN: 0907764401 | PDF | pages: 238 | 28.5 mb
As part of its centenary celebrations in 2010, the Roman Society organised a number of conferences across the UK exploring the theme of AD410 and the "End of Roman Britain". This volume contains a selection of 16 papers delivered at these conferences, tackling the debate from different angles (historical, archaeological, literary) and setting out the current state of research. An introduction by Simon Esmonde Cleary serves to set the volume in the context of the study of Roman Britain over the last forty years, since the inception of the Society's journal, Britannia, and a conclusion by Martin Millett highlights some of the key issues raised in the volume, and points to possible ways forward for future studies.

E-BooksThe Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Text and Archaeology



The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Text and Archaeology
Justin Kelley, Justin L. Kelley, "The Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Text and Archaeology"
English | 2019 | pages: 361 | ISBN: 1789690560 | PDF | 16,5 mb
The Church of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem, was built by the Byzantine emperor Constantine I to commemorate the Passion of Jesus Christ. Encased within its walls are the archaeological remains of a small piece of ancient Jerusalem ranging in date from the 8th century BC through the 16th century AD, at which time the Turkish Ottoman Empire ushered Jerusalem into the modern period. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was the subject of extensive archaeological investigation between 1960 and 1981 during its restoration. With the development of non-destructive techniques of archaeological research, investigation within the church has continued, which led to the restoration and conservation of the shrine built over the Tomb of Jesus in 2017. The first part of this monograph focuses on the archaeological record of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, surveying past excavations as well as recent research carried out within the church over the past three decades. The archaeological survey provides historical context for the second part of the book-a collection of primary sources pertinent to the history of the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The texts included here range in date from the 1st century AD to the mid-19th century and are presented in their original languages with English translation.
