Contacts, boundaries and innovation in the fifth millennium
Exploring developed Neolithic societies in central Europe and beyond
2019 || Hardcover || Ralf Gleser e.a. || Sidestone Press
The fifth millennium is characterized by far-flung contacts and a veritable flood of innovations. While its beginning is still strongly reminiscent of a broadly Linearbandkeramik way of life, at its end we find new, inter-regionally valid forms of symbolism, representation and ritual behaviour, changes in the settlement system, in architecture and in routine life. Yet, these inter-regional tendencies are paired with a profusion of increasingly small-scale archaeological cultures, many of them...

From ‘LUGAL.GAL’ to ‘Wanax’
kingship and Political Organisation in the Late Bronze Age Aegean
2019 || Hardcover || Jorrit Kelder e.a. || Sidestone Press
In this book the much-debated problem of political organization in Mycenaean Greece (ca. 1400-1200 BC) is analysed and contextualised through the prism of archaeology and contemporary textual (Linear B, Egyptian and Hittite) evidence.
From the early 14th century BC onwards, Hittite texts refer to a land Ahhiya(wa). The exact geographic position of this land has been the focus of academic debate for more than a century, but most specialists nowadays agree that it must have been a Hittite desig...

The Naos of Amasis
a monument for the reawakening of Osiris
Hardcover || Marco Zecchi || Sidestone Press
The naos AM 107 of the Museum of Antiquities of Leiden was built by king Amasis in the VIth century BC, a period that saw an intense production of monolithic shrines. Despite its not impressive dimensions, however, the naos of Leiden stands out for its originality. What is particularly interesting about this monument is that its distinctiveness is strictly connected to the nature of its recipient.
Amasis dedicated the naos to Osiris Hemag, one of the most important and enigmatic Osirian forms...

Settlement change across Medieval Europe
Old paradigms and new vistas
2019 || Hardcover || Niall Brady e.a. || Sidestone Press
The idea that the past was an era with long periods of little or no change is almost certainly false. Change has always affected human society. Some of the catalysts for change were exogenous and lay in natural transformations, such as climate change or plant and animal diseases. Others came from endogamous processes, such as demographic change and the resulting alterations in demographic pressure. They might be produced by economic changes in the agrarian economy such as crop- or stock-breed...

Creatures of Earth, Water, and Sky
Essays on Animals in Ancient Egypt and Nubia
2019 || Hardcover || Stéphanie Porcier e.a. || Sidestone Press
Ancient Egyptians always had an intense and complex relationship with animals in daily life as well as in religion. Despite the fact that research on this relationship has been a topic of study, gaps in our knowledge still remain. This volume presents well over 30 contributions that explore Human-Animal relationships from the Predynastic to the Roman period.
The essays cover topics such as animal husbandry, mummification, species-specific studies, the archaeology and economy of the animal cult...
