God on Earth: Emperor Domitian
The re-invention of Rome at the end of the 1st century AD
2021 || Hardcover || Aurora Raimondi Cominesi e.a. || Sidestone Press
In life, the emperor Domitian (81-96 CE) marketed himself as a god; after his assassination he was condemned to be forgotten. Nonetheless he oversaw a literary, cultural, and monumental revival on a scale not witnessed since Rome’s first emperor, Augustus.
In tandem with an exhibition in the Rijksmuseum van Oudheden in Leiden and the Mercati Traianei in Rome, planned for 2021-2022, this volume offers a fresh perspective on Domitian and his reign. This collection of papers, produced by a gr...

The Value of a Human Life
Ritual Killing and Human Sacrifice in Antiquity
2022 || Hardcover || Karel Innemée || Sidestone Press
Throughout the millennia and all over the world people have been killed by others, not only in wars and as a result of murders, but also in a ritualised way, often called human sacrifice. Much has been written about this, and research and discussion about ritual killing continue. This book offers contributions to this on-going discussion, by a re-evaluation of the term human sacrifice, arguing that not all forms of ritual killing can be considered to be sacrificial.

Keizer Domitianus
2021 || Paperback || Nathalie de Haan e.a. || Sidestone Press
Vijftien jaar was Domitianus als keizer van Rome aan de macht (81-96). Na de onverwachte dood van zijn oudere broer Titus, die slechts twee jaar regeerde, was hij de logische troonopvolger. Domitianus zette op veel punten het beleid van zijn populaire vader Vespasianus (keizer tussen 69-79) en Titus (79-81) voort. Met succes: er heersten vrede, rust en stabiliteit op de meeste plaatsen in het Rijk. De handel en bedrijvigheid floreerden, ook al plukte niet iedereen daarvan de vruchten. Intusse...

Resurfacing the submerged past
Prehistoric archaeology and landscapes of the Flevoland Polders, the Netherlands
2021 || Hardcover || Hans Peeters e.a. || Sidestone Press
The Netherlands are internationally renowned for the archaeology of its wetland environments. The reclamation of the Flevoland Polders in the early half of the 20th century not only exposed hundreds of shipwrecks, but also remnants of prehistoric landscapes and traces of human occupation dating to Mesolithic and Neolithic times. Ultimately, this led to the ‘discovery’ of the Swifterbant Culture in the 1960s-1970s, and which was initially seen as a Dutch equivalent of the Ertebølle Culture.
Archaeological investigations conducted by the University of Groningen, and later also the University of Amsterdam, delivered important new data on the nature of the Swifterbant Culture. It became key in the discussion about the adoption of crop cultivation and animal husbandry by hunter-gatherers living in wetland environments. Also, the Swifterbant Culture became central in the debate on the meaning of archaeologically defined ‘cultures’, questioning relationships between social interaction and material culture. With the increase of urbanisation and infrastructural works, alongside changes in the Dutch Monuments Act, dozens of small and large-scale development-led investigations got initiated at the turn of the centur...
