Full Description
Imperial and Royal Archaeologies explores material evidence for the lifestyles and actions of emperors, empresses, kings, and queens, in the late antique world, A.D. 284-650. Coverage is firstly by region, from the Great Palace of Constantinople, through the 'Forum of Valens' of Antioch to the Tetrarchic capital of Thessalonica. It then turns to the royal courts of the West, notably of Britain and Spain. Those of Nubia, Axum, and Persia are also compared. The old capital of Rome furnishes studies of imperial insignia, triumphal monuments, and statues of ministers. Other aspects of imperial power are scrutinised: the policies of Diocletian, Constantine, or Julian, on temple construction, and Justinian or others, on military campaigns. Finally, Isauria is investigated as the imperial homeland of Zeno.
