The 12th volume of Tabula Imperii Byzantini deals with the historical geography of Eastern Thrace in Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Being the European hinterland of Constantinople, capital of the Byzantine empire for more than thousand years, the region was one of the most significant landscapes in the Eastern Mediterranean. Bordering on the Aegean in the west, the Sea of Marmara in the south and the Black Sea in the east, the area is exposed to different climatic influences and shows a notable regional variety. Prominent places of Eastern Thrace are Constantinople with its suburbs and the Bosphorus, Mount Ganos the "holy mountain" (Işıklar Dağı), the peninsula of Chersonēsos and the Istranca mountain with its numerous nameless fortresses. The introduction of the volume deals with geography and climate, with history, traffic-routes and economy. Furthermore, an alphabetical catalogue offers more than 700 entries of settlements, place-names, fortresses, churches etc. from late Antiquity and Byzantine times; it was composed by using GIS, written, archaeological and toponymical sources. The main map of Eastern Thrace is drawn to a scale of 1:800,000, a more detailed map shows the Golden Horn and the European shore of the Bosphorus to a scale of 1:100,000.

This volume explores the reception of the Byzantine experience of the Bible. Several sessions at the ISBL held in Vienna in 2014 on built the basis of this volume. The wide range of source materials of this volume—from manuscripts and military handbooks to lead seals and pilgrim guides—allows insights into a vivid liturgical tradition, which shapes Orthodox Christianity up today. The volume shows the multitude of strategies for the engagement with the Biblical text and the manifold ways in which the Bible message was experienced, articulated and brought to life on a daily basis.

The Long-Term Project "Tabula Imperii Byzantini (TIB)" (Institute for Medieval Research, Division of Byzantine Research) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences was founded in 1966. It is a very active and innovative scholarly endeavour and at the same time a keeper of TIB data sets (slides, photographs etc.), which are of remarkable importance for the Cultural Heritage of the Mediterranean World. Therefore, the entire TIB team (the active and the emeriti scholars) has prepared an edited volume in German entitled "Raum und Geschichte: der historische Atlas 'Tabula Imperii Byzantini (TIB)' an der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften". It was published in July 2020 by the editors Andreas Külzer, Veronika Polloczek, Mihailo St. Popović and Johannes Koder as volume 3 of the series "Studies in Historical Geography and Cultural Heritage" at the publishing house Akademska Knjiga (Novi Sad, Serbia). The aim of this publication is to introduce especially to an Austrian audience the history, scholarly results, future ideas and plans and contribution to national as well as international academia of the TIB, since the TIB is an integral part of Austrian scholarship funded by the Austrian society. Although Historical Geography is a very specialised branch of Byzantine Studies, we do believe that the existence of such a project in Austria and its documentation will meet public interest and awareness.

The landscape of the Southeast Peloponnese (Laconia, Greece), a very important region of the Empire in the context of the late Byzantine period, was comprised of important bishopric centers, such as Mistra and Monemvasia, as well as numerous villages, powerful monastic foundations, and smaller hermitages frequently built in caves and isolated settings. Grounded both on systematic fieldwork and detailed surveys of the monuments, this book is the first comprehensive study of the eremitical and monastic landscapes of the region. It investigates the interactions of isolated hermits and established communities, the relationships of large monasteries to smaller foundations, and the interweaving of monastic and rural economies. It aims at identifying the monks themselves, their preoccupations and aspirations, which are reflected not only by the choice of the patron saints of the holy places they founded or the content of the painted decoration but also by the choice of location or a deep relationship with natural elements of the landscape.

The network of communication roads and routes in Western Anatolia dates essentially from the Roman period: its strengthening started immediately after the founding of the province Asia in 133 / 129 BCE. In later generations, the system expanded, and in late antiquity, it reached its greatest extent. Then, in the middle ages, only single sections of varying lengths were in use, due to political conditions, numerous threats, weathering and climatic influences. There was no further expansion of the road system anymore; the width of many communication routes shrank considerably. At various locations in Western Asia Minor, one can find ancient or medieval bridges, milestones and original road sections of various length. Indeed, between these archaeologically documented fixed-points the course of the roads needs to be reconstructed. Most road models refer to the Barrington Atlas, offered by Richard Talbert and his team in the year 2000. Unfortunately, this system is partly incomplete. Therefore, the aim of our article is to present some additions. For example, one has to add a local road between Perperēnē / Theodosiupolis and Trarion in the area of modern Aşağıbey; another one led through the mountain range of Yunt dağı and connected the cities of Gambreion near Poyracık and Hermokapeleia / Beşiktepe. Several Roman roads existed in Northern Lydia as well as east of the Lycus valley. Furthermore, they existed on Karaburun Yarımadası, where they connected the local settlements with the regions in the hinterland of Smyrna / İzmir and Ephesus / Selçuk.

This article is dedicated to the Peutinger Map, especially to its segments VII 5 and VIII Weber, which present the landscapes of Eastern Thrace and Western Asia Minor, both central parts of the former Byzantine Empire. The paper discusses the cartographic representation of the Late-Roman and early Byzantine provinces of Eurōpē, Hellēspontos, Bithynia, Asia, Lydia and Phrygia Pakatianē and compares the depiction on the map with historical and geographical realities: it tries to identify different striking toponyms and concentrates on the analysis of the network-situation of various important settlements, mountains, lakes and rivers. The depicted communication network of the Peutinger Map is compared to the evidence of literary and archaeological sources. Furthermore, the distinctive influence of the Peutinger Map on the depiction of the Late Roman and Early Byzantine road network in several modern scientific manuals and geographic websites is highlighted: for example, a main route across the Gelibolu peninsula, which is marked on the Peutinger Map only by a sequence of settlements, but not by a connecting line, lacks in almost all historic geographical atlases and internet portals!

The surveys of the Istanbul Prehistoric Research Project that have been carried out since 2014 in and around the Istanbul Büyükçekmece Lake, discovered not only prehistoric materials but also a considerable number of small findings, ceramics and architectural elements from the Classical Period. A great deal of effort was spent to identify the long wall, extending roughly along the lake"s ancient coast line, which surfaces during the years of drought when the lake"s water recedes considerably. Antique geographers mention the region in a line or two, as a small town named after Athyra(s), a river flowing into the Marmara Sea from the north. Procopius, an important historian of the 6th Century, informs us in his book "On Buildings"(Greek: ΠερὶΚτισμάτων, PerìKtismáton; Latin: De aedificiis) that Emperor Justinian built a reservoir at the request of people affected by drought in a town called Athyra, near Constantinople. At first glance, knowing that the lake now not only supplies its ever-growing nearby population but also provides fresh water to Istanbul, the information given by Procopius didn"t seem to be convincing. The team focused its efforts to investigate if the embankment belongs to the mentioned dam, or not.The team consulted the historic records and also correlated with the other surface findings such as different artifacts, ceramics, and architectural elements to build a context. Underwater Side Scan Sonar, Geomorphological and Paleoclimatological work confirmed that the region, despite its ample fresh water sources available nowadays, was suffering a serious drought during the sixth century.

The Thracian Chersonese, modern Gallipoli peninsula, in Turkish Gelibolu yarımadası, is the most south western part of the former Byzantine province of Eurōpē. The peninsula is about 900 square kilometres; it is about eighty kilometres long and five to eighteen kilometres wide. It separates the Saros bay (Saros körfezi) as part of the Northern Aegean from the Dardanelles and the Sea of Marmara. Because of its Mediterranean climate the vegetation is different compared to many other parts of Thrace. The relief is mountainous, it rises slowly from North-East to South-West, and only in a few cases it is higher than 300 meters: the highest point is Ürey dağı near the modern village of Pazarlı with 359 meters. The Northern coast falls steeply to the Sea, only in a few places there are small ports and marinas. The slopes on the Southern
coast, however, fall gently to the Sea; numerous small rivers divide the landscape. Since ancient times, the most important settlements are located on the Southern shore, partly also in the interior of the peninsula. - The article focuses on the early Byzantine period, the period between the late third and the early seventh century, according to the issue of the symposium. Historical and economic issues were treated; furthermore settlement theories were presented and applied.

Die verheerende Auswirkung von Kriegen auf das Weltkulturerbe wurde nach 1945 umfassend erörtert. Wissenschaftliche Projekte an der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften haben eine lange Tradition darin, einen Beitrag in der Erforschung des Kulturerbes zu leisten. Unter ihnen ist das ÖAW Langzeitprojekt Tabula Imperii Byzantini (TIB) zu nennen, das einen historischen Atlas des Byzantinischen Reiches unter besonderer Berücksichtigung der Balkanhalbinsel und Kleinasiens erarbeitet. Auf Bereisungen wurden seit 1966 Denkmäler und deren (damaliger) aktueller Zustand mittels Dias dokumentiert. Diese einzigartige Sammlung von byzantinischen Denkmälern ist ein reichhaltiges Kulturgut und ein Angelpunkt zukünftiger Forschungsarbeit. Das Ziel des vom Jubiläumsfonds der Österreichischen Nationalbank geförderten Projektes mit der Nummer 17771 besteht darin, drei Fallstudien mit ihren Denkmälern [nämlich „Kilikien und Isaurien“ (TIB 5); „Ostthrakien (Europe)“ (TIB 12); „Makedonien, nördlicher Teil“ (TIB 16)] zu behandeln, um sie sorgfältig durch das Prisma des Kulturerbes (vorher – nachher Zustand) zu betrachten. Diese Fallstudien wurden wegen der komplexen politisch-militärischen Lage im Nahen Osten mit den Auswirkungen auf die Denkmäler in situ (TIB 5) gewählt und weil sie Gebiete umfassen, deren Infrastrukturen sich rasch mit nachhaltigen Folgen für die Landschaften der Vergangenheit und für die jeweiligen Denkmäler (TIB 12 und TIB 16) entwickeln. Durch die drei Fallstudien werden ein strukturierter und effizienter Workflow sowie eine Best Practice auf diesem Gebiet der Historischen Geographie und der Digitalen Geisteswissenschaften geschaffen. Dieser wissenschaftliche Vortrag im Rahmen der DPP Lecture Series wird zu Beginn des betreffenden Projektes im März 2018 einen ersten Einblick in selbiges geben.

International Conference:
Seasides of Byzantium: harbours and anchorages of a Mediterranean Empire
Date: 29 May -1 June 2017
Venue: National Hellenic Research Foundation, 48 Vassileos Constantinou Ave., 11635 Athens, Greece
The study of maritime installations and networks in the Roman and Byzantine Mediterranean has found increased interest in the last years as becomes manifest in various projects and publications. The major DFG-funded Special Research Programme (SPP-1630) “Harbours from the Roman Period to the Middle Ages” with its interdisciplinary approach constitutes one core element of this development (http://www.spp-haefen.de/en/home/). Within the framework of the SPP-1630 and its project “Harbours and landing places on the Balkan coasts of the Byzantine Empire (4th to 12th centuries)” (http://www.spp-haefen.de/en/projects/byzantine-harbours-on-the-balkan-coasts/), the Römisch-Germanisches Zentralmuseum (RGZM) in Mainz (http://web.rgzm.de/) and the Institute of Historical Research of the National Hellenic Research Foundation (NHRF/IHR) in Athens (http://www.eie.gr/nhrf/institutes/ihr/index-en_IHR.html) have established a cooperation for joint research on harbours in Byzantine Greece and the creation of a common data base.
Against this background, the conference “Seasides of Byzantium” intends to set these activities within the wider context of research on the Byzantine Empire as phenomenon of maritime history. Scholars present new material and new approaches based on historical or archaeological evidence which illuminate the scale, shapes and functions of Byzantine harbours and anchorages in their temporal and spatial dynamics across the Mediterranean. Furthermore, also the connections of these places across the sea and to their hinterlands are taken into consideration. The conference schedule includes one day of arrival and opening, two days of presentation and discussion and one day of excursion to relevant archaeological sites near Athens. For invited participants, costs for travel and accommodation are covered by the organisers. Besides, a wider audience is welcome to listen to the presentations.

International Workshop, 3. - 4. November 2016, RGZM Mainz
This workshop is taking place as part of the project "The Thracian harbour-city Ainos", supported by the Priority Research Programme 1630 of the German Research Foundation (SPP 1630, DFG). Its focus is the history and archaeology of the Thracian Sea (Mare Thracium) from the west part of Chalkidiki to the east side of the Thracian Chersonese including the islands of Thasos, Samothrace and Imbros. Due to the modern geographical borders, the Thracian Sea has been seldom approached as an entity. Already in Antiquity, the economic importance of this region has been profound with minerals, viniculture and a very fruitful hinterland highly contributing to the local production. At the surrounding coasts and the islands of the Thracian Sea numerous harbour-cities have been founded and thrived, their history extending from the Archaic time up to the Byzantine period.
Participation is free, guests are welcome. For organizational reasons we request application via Email to triantafillidis@rgzm.de.
Organization: PD Dr. Thomas Schmidts and Ioannis Triantafillidis M.A. (RGZM) in Cooperation with Dr. Chryssa Karadima (Ephorie of antiquities Rhodopi)
