Welcome
Welcome to the University of Exeter Press 2015 Distributed Presses Catalogue. Here we present all titles from the presses we represent in Europe and the Middle East. The focus of this catalogue is archaeology relating to the Middle East and the Mediterranean. Books on archaeological research in North America which have been published by these presses have also been included, at the back of the catalogue. This catalogue highlights the forthcoming 2015 titles, including a survey of the coastal town Pyla-Koutsopetria, a full archaeological and pictorial presentation of the Temple of Ramesses II at Abydos and a catalogue of Islamic artworks arranged thematically. Other recent publications from 2014 are also highlighted; these include the second massive volume on rock inscriptions in the Theban Desert and the archaeological reports of several important sites in Egypt and the Levant.

Pearls of Wisdom The Arts of Islam at the University of Michigan By Christiane Gruber and Ashley Dimmig
ISBN: 978 0 9906623 0 3 128pp | ÂŁ16.00 Paperback Published by Kelsey Museum Publications
This catalogue of a Kelsey Museum of Archaeology exhibition showcases a selection of Islamic art works held in the University of Michigan's collections. Rather than arranged chronologically, geographically or by media, the objects are organized thematically and conceptually. Themes include the intersections between function and decoration, the aesthetic power of everyday objects, visual play, wit and magic, connections and interrelationships across art forms, and light symbolism and illumination. The volume not only highlights the strengths of the university's collections of Islamic art but also explores various issues integral to the conception and production of art in the Islamic world from the medieval period until the present day.

Forthcoming for 2015 Pyla-Koutsopetria I Archaeological Survey of an Ancient Coastal Town By William Caraher, R. Scott Moore and David K. Pettegrew, et al.
ISBN: 978 0 89757 069 5 348pp | ÂŁ52.00 Hardback Published by ASOR ASOR Archaeological Reports
Pyla-Koutsopetria I presents the results of an intensive pedestrian survey documenting the diachronic history of a 100 ha microregion along the southern coast of Cyprus. Located around 10 km from the ancient city of Kition, the ancient coastal settlements of the Koutsopetria mircoregion featured an Iron Age sanctuary, a Classical settlement, a Hellenistic fortification, a Late Roman town and a Venetian-Ottoman coastal battery situated adjacent to a now infilled, natural harbour on Larnaka Bay. This publication integrates a comprehensive treatment of methods with a discussion of artefact distribution, a thorough catalogue of finds, and a diachronic history to shed light on one of the few undeveloped stretches of the Cypriot coast.
Land Tenure, Fiscal Policy and Imperial Power in Medieval Syro-Egypt By Daisuke Igarashi
ISBN: 978 0 97081 999 4 264pp | ÂŁ48.00 Hardback Published by Middle East Documentation Center Chicago Studies on the Middle East
This book aims to examine the structural changes in the state and society in Mamluk Egypt and Syria after the middle of the eighth/fourteenth century. Between 648/1250 and 922/1517, the Mamluk sultanate ruled Egypt, Syria and the central Middle East. During this period, the sultanate expanded its authority over the medieval Islamic world by defending Muslim society against the Crusades, protecting the holy cities of Mecca and Medina and reinstalling the Abbasid caliphate in Cairo.

Forthcoming for 2015 The Temple of Ramesses II in Abydos By Sameh Iskander and Ogden Goelet Volume 1: Wall Scenes ISBN: 978 1 937040 36 9 520pp | £180.00 Hardback Volume 2: Pillars, Miscellany, and Inscriptions ISBN: 978 1 937040 37 6 320pp | £65.00 Hardback

Of all the enormous monuments throughout Egypt and Nubia that Ramesses II (the Great; ca. 1279-1212 BCE) left behind, his temple at Abydos, built early in his reign, stands as one of his most elegant monuments, with its simple architectural layout and dramatic and graceful painted relief scenes. Though best known for its dramatic reliefs depicting the battle of Kadesh, the temple also offers a wealth of information about religious and social life in ancient Egypt. It reflects, for example, the strenuous efforts of the early Ramessides to re-establish the Osiris cult in Egypt–and particularly at Abydos–in the aftermath of the Amarna period. Over a seven-year period, the authors of The Temple of Ramesses II in Abydos conducted a field project with the aim of producing an up-to-date and comprehensive architectural, photographic and epigraphic record of the temple. Volume 1: Wall Scenes, contains more than two hundred detailed line drawings-accurately rendered according to modern epigraphical standards-of the temple's carved relief scenes, placed alongside their corresponding full-color photographs. Volume 2: Pillars, Miscellany, and Inscriptions, contains additional elements of the temple, as well as translations of the inscriptions found in the temple. The result is a masterpiece of modern epigraphic research and publication.

The Economy of the Roman World By Jean Andreau, Corina Kesler, Ellen Bauerle and David Potter
ISBN: 978 0 9799713 5 8 175pp | £35.00 Hardback Published by Michigan Classical Press
The ancient economy has long been a hotly debated topic. Did citizens of the ancient world understand markets? Did they have economic policies? Did cities produce or consume? What effect did the ager publicus have on production and prices? Jean Andreau's latest volume on economic behaviour in the Roman world investigates these questions and more. Translated from the French, The Economy of the Roman World is written for those new to ancient economic issues and also for those curious about the broader context of artefacts, like amphorae, glassware or the famous garum–fermented fish sauce. All Greek and Latin terms are translated. Each chapter is accompanied by translations of selected original documents from across the Roman Empire.

Cyprus and the Balance of Empires Art and Archaeology from Justinian I to the Coeur de Lion Edited by Charles Anthony Stewart, Thomas W. Davis and Annemarie Weyl Carr
ISBN: 978 0 89757 073 2 288pp | ÂŁ48.00 Hardback Published by ASOR ASOR Archaeological Reports
Between 491 and 1191 AD, Cyprus was influenced by various political and cultural centres that vied for dominance in the Eastern Mediterranean. This collection of essays primarily focuses on the island's archaeology when it was governed by the Byzantine capital of Constantinople. Greek and Orthodox Christian identity was cultivated during this period, which provided a sense of unity among the various provinces; and yet, the surviving historical and archaeological data concerning Cyprus is unique in that it expresses both local and regional characteristics.

General and American Archaeology Carl W. Blegen Personal and Archaeological Narratives By Natalia Vogeikoff-Brogan, Jack L. Davis and Vaisiliki Florou
ISBN: 978 1 937040 22 2 252pp | ÂŁ25.00 2015 | Paperback Published by Lockwood Press
Carl Blegen is the most famous American archaeologist ever to work in Greece, and no American has ever had a greater impact on Greek archaeology. Yet Blegen, unlike several others of his generation, has found no biographer. In part, the explanation for this must lie in the fact that his life was so multifaceted: not only was he instrumental in creating the field of Aegean prehistory, but Blegen, his wife and their best friends, the Hills ('the family'), were also significant forces in the social and intellectual community of Athens. Authors who have contributed to this book have each researched one aspect of Blegen's life. The result is a biography that sets Blegen in the social and academic milieu that gave rise to the discipline of classical archaeology in Greece.
Regional Settlement Demography in Archaeology By Robert D. Drennan, C. Adam Berrey and Christian E. Peterson
ISBN: 978 0 9898249 4 1 200pp | ÂŁ32.50 2015 | Paperback Published by Eliot Werner Publications
Archaeological analysis at the regional scale investigates the past by studying how people distributed themselves and their activities across a landscape of hundreds or thousands of square kilometres. Archaeological field survey methods combine with powerful new quantitative tools for spatial analysis to unleash new potential for identifying and studying ancient local communities and regional polities. Varied approaches to estimating regional population sizes in both relative and absolute terms are synthesized and their attributes assessed. Field survey methods developed around the world are compiled and best practices for collecting archaeological data to sustain demographic analysis are delineated.

George Frison and Dennis Stanford's Agate Basin monograph is not only a classic of Plains Paleoindian archaeology, but also of multidisciplinary research, geoarchaeology, zooarchaeology and experimental archaeology. Lucid presentation of meticulously excavated and analysed sediments, bones and artefacts convey an unmatched sense of the sights, sounds and smells of Paleoindian life on the High Plains–from brutal winters and blistering summers, to killing and butchering bison, and to making lethal weaponry.

General and American Archaeology The Casper Site A Hell Gap Bison Kill on the High Plains (revised edition) By George C. Frison
ISBN: 978 0 9752738 4 5 296pp | £25.00 2014 | Paperback Published by Eliot Werner Publications EWP Foundations of Archaeology
With his background in ranching and hunting, Frison knows more about large animals than any other archaeologist. In The Casper Site, Frison began to share that knowledge as well as the techniques of bone bed excavation; that, and the book’s interdisciplinary approach, makes it a landmark in Paleoindian archaeology and faunal analysis.
