Felicium temporum reparatio : Labraunda in Late Antiquity (c. AD 300-600)
- 2012
-
Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This study focuses on a quantitative analysis of Late Antique remains that have been recorded at Labraunda from 1948 to 2011, and that date mainly to the period c. AD 300-600. The finds are presented according to context in order to form more reliable chronologies and more profound find-related contextualization of the specific areas of study. The studied sample comprises of all the diagnostic material from Late Antiquity found at Labraunda, including architecture, architectural sculpture, ceramics, glass, inscriptions/graffiti, coins, organic remains, and various other small finds. The architectural remains include two church complexes, a residence with a tetraconch bath, and several rebuilt structures within the Classical temenos. Both the architectural remnants and the small finds are brought into wider socio-religious and socio-economic contexts in order to increase our knowledge of Labraunda at the end of Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages.

Labraunda in late antiquity c. 300-600 A.D.

Licentiatavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis presents my work on five late-antique buildings discovered inLabraunda, divided into five parts. Part I discusses the East Church, PartII the recent work at the Tetraconch, Part III the South Thermae, Part IVthe remains of late-antique structures at the Oikoi building and finallyPart V the most recent work at the West Church. The thesis is put togetherfrom six separate articles that have been slightly revised in order to forma continuous text. The first published article New research on CarianLabraunda in late antiquity,1 was mainly a general survey of thelate-antique buildings and architectural marbles excavated at Labraundabetween 1948 and 1960. The section on the Byzantine Church, here called theEast Church (in Part I), was primarily based on my M.A. thesis TheByzantine Church at Labraunda.2 A more detailed architectural analysis onthe East Church was presented in the paper Recent research on the churchesof Labraunda at the 60-year-anniversary symposium of the excavations atLabraunda, held at the Royal Academy of Letters History and Antiquities inStockholm in November of 2008.3 I have published two more articles on theEast Church focusing on the excavations of 2005-2007. The article theByzantine Churches,4 was a descriptive account for the excavation reportbut also with a short note on the restoration work inside the SouthThermae, cf. part 3.1. The article Late-antique glass in sacred context: ahagiasma at Carian Labraunda,5 was an attempt to contextualize the glassfound inside the apse-channel of the East Church; an important find, whichI consider to be the possible genesis of the site as a Christian sanctuary.Part II, deals with the Tetraconch complex from an architectural point ofview, but also the discussion of private establishments in a supposedextra-urban, sanctuary context. It is based on two preliminaryarchaeological reports on the excavations of 2008-2009.6 However, much hasbeen added to this section that has not previously been published. PartsIII and IV, are both mainly based on the first survey of the site in 2006,7but the section on the South Thermae has, as mentioned above, also beensupplemented with the small section on the restoration of 2007. The finalsection, Part V, focuses on the so-called West Church, and is based on thepreliminary archaeological report of 2009.8 Short reports on the marbleambo found in 2007, have been published in several articles.

Polygonal columns in Greek architecture
- 2020

Doktorsavhandling (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- This thesis studies the use of polygonal columns in Greek architecture from the Geometric to the Hellenistic period. The main purpose of the research is to study the development, distribution, design, function and use of polygonal columns in order to create a new understanding on how they fit in the development of Greek architecture. The study is based mainly on measurements documented during archeological fieldwork or from excavation reports, and it addresses a critical gap in our current knowledge of Greek architecture since no comparative study focusing on this type of column has previously been conducted.Polygonal or faceted columns have multi-sided shafts with flat sides of equal width. Many polygonal columns were used as status symbols, and so were placed in important monumental buildings. They were also used in combination with fluted columns and could be manufactured from expensive materials such as marble. Polygonal columns were probably cheaper to produce than their fluted counterparts, but expensive compared with the production of functional pillars and supports. The decision to use polygonal rather than round or fluted columns was probably an intentional choice. Furthermore, the development of the polygonal column does not follow the same trajectory of design as that of shafts and capitals on round or fluted columns, and so this design should therefore be studied in its own right.Polygonal columns were used throughout the ancient Greek world. Six groups can be identified on the basis of their shape and design, their functions, geography and chronology. Each group had its own local development in terms of style and use. First, octagonal columns with Doric octagonal capitals from the Peloponnese, the coastal islands and the southern Greek mainland in use from the Geometric to Classical period. Second, octagonal columns with Doric octagonal capitals from Hellenistic Epirus and southern Illyria. Third, Hellenistic octagonal columns with Doric octagonal capitals from other regions. Fourth, eight-sided faceted columns from Greece, Anatolia and the Tauric peninsula during the Archaic to the Hellenistic period. Fifth, Hellenistic 20- and 24-sided polygonal columns with Doric capitals in the Aegean islands and Anatolia. Sixth, polygonal columns with local capitals in Archaic Cyprus. In addition, there is evidence of the use of polygonal columns scattered around towns in the Mediterranean region. In most cases, their design and shape can be connected to one of the main regions mentioned above.Polygonal columns follow the general development of manufacturing techniques in Greek architecture and were used in the same manner as fluted Doric columns. Polygonal shafts were used with Doric capitals in Doric buildings from the Archaic period, but they were never used with other polygonal architectural members. They were, however, sometimes used in combination with capitals from other architectural styles, but since Doric capitals were aesthetically easier to adapt to a polygonal shape, they were usually the preferred choice. Historically, it has been suggested that polygonal columns were a simple precursor to later more complex designs and/or a more economical alternative to fluted columns; these hypotheses are contradicted by the evidence presented in this study. Polygonal columns, with their aesthetically distinctive design, seem instead to be one of the many local variations that were used in Greek architecture.
