I Mamuralia del calendario figurato di Thysdrus: un caso di “invented tradition”?
No full textL’esiguità delle fonti e della documentazione archeologica rendono complessa un’esegesi sistematica dei Mamuralia celebrati a marzo allorché si sarebbe rievocata l’espulsione rituale di Mamurius Veturius, il mitico fabbro che realizzò,
su indicazione di Numa, le undici copie dell’ancile di Giove. Partendo dall’analisi della scena rappresentata sul mosaico di marzo del calendario figurato della Maison des Mois di Thysdrus, il presente contributo si propone di indagare la natura dei Mamuralia per verificarne l’eventuale contestualizzazione entro il panorama ideologico-religioso augusteo

L’eternità ritrovata. Iconografia e iconologia delle immagini dei mesi nei calendari figurati degli edifici di culto cristiani
No full textThe main feature of the Roman and Byzantine illustrated calendars, documented particularly in Italy, Greece, Africa Proconsularis and Middle East provinces from the Middle Roman Imperial Period to the Age of Justinian, is the representation of the months of the year. These images, especially of the rural type which allude to the Aeternitas (“Eternity”) and Felicitas Temporum (“Prosperity of the Times”), have been used by the members of the pagan aristocracy to adorn their houses as means of self-representation of their social and economic power. In a second stage, the high Christian clergy utilized the mosaics of months as floor decoration of churches in order to reflect the concepts of the cycle of time and the fecundity of nature created by God. The aim of this paper is to analyze the artistic and cultural continuity of the pagan iconography of illustrated calendars in Christian religious buildings
Le molteplici immagini della morte. “Romanizzazione religiosa” e culti funerari nella Sardegna di età romana
No full textThe analysis of the archaeological evidence, epigraphic and literary sources made it possible to verify how the funerary cults practiced in Roman Sardinia between the late Republican and early imperial age had been influenced by the specific historical context of the island, characterized by the interaction between Punic and Roman-Italic cultural traditions. The aim of this paper is to demonstrate, through the investigation of some case studies, how this archaeological documentation confirms the involvement of Sardinia in the historical-cultural dynamics of the so called ‘religious Romanisation’, a complex phenomenon concerning the nature of the influence employed by the Roman dominion on a religious level over the conquered territories
