Museo de Sitio de la No Intervención: Fuerte de Loreto, Puebla
No full textLa información de esta miniguía se basa en los trabajos de Mariano Fernández Echeverría y Veytia, Hugo Leicht, Fausto Marín Tamayo y Guillermo Rosell.El nombre del museo obedece al hecho de que ésta es una instalación militar que no fue intervenida gracias a la estrategia defensiva que hiciera el general Ignacio Zaragoza durante la invasión francesa en 1862, pero es mejor conocido como Museo del Fuerte de Loreto. El fortín tiene su origen en una pequeña ermita construida desde el siglo XVII cuando en 1655, el indio José de la Cruz Sarmiento, fue sorprendido por una gran tempestad y al caer un rayo, salió ileso, habiéndose encomendado a la virgen de Loreto; por lo cual al año siguiente pidió licencia al Ayuntamiento para construir una ermita en honor de la virgen, mismo que se le concedió en 1659.</p
DÛMA I. Report of the 2010 season of the Saudi-Italian-French- Archaeological Project at Dûmat al-Jandal. G. Charloux - R. Loreto (edd), King Fahd National Library, Riyadh
No full textThis volume is the first comprehensive report of the 2010 season of the Saudi-Italian-french archaeological project at Dumat al-Jandal (ancient Adummatu). Born in 2009, the project is related to the prehistory and history of al-Jawf region in northern Saudi Arabia, focusing on the historical site of Dumat al-Jandal, the ancient Adummatu quoted in the assyrian sources of the VIII cent. BCE
Results from the 2009–2016 excavation seasons in the historical centre of Dūmat al-Jandal, ancient Adummatu
No full textIn 2011 a preliminary chronology of Dūmat al-Jandal was presented at the Seminar for Arabian Studies by the Saudi-Italian-French
project. Based on two excavation seasons carried out at the eastern foot of the acropolis, the first archaeological data for the ancient
Adummatu — quoted in the Assyrian annals as the capital of the northern Arab people — came to light. After eight archaeological
campaigns in the historical centre of Dūmat al-Jandal, it is now possible to define a more complex picture of the ancient oasis,
by defining the urban topography and trade contacts related to the centuries dated between the early Islamic and Nabataean eras.
In addition, a first fragmentary inscription and artefacts related to the pre-Nabataean period, as well as 14C dates, could testify to
an occupation during the second half of the first millennium BC, apparently a dark period from both textual and archaeological
standpoints. The archaeological activities were carried out in the acropolis, where the Byzantine sixth- to seventh-century AD Mārid
Castle stands; in the lower city, where the ancient Nabataean urbanization was identified and where pre-Nabataean artefacts were
collected; and outside the western side of the early Islamic ΚUmar b. al-KhaΓΓāb mosque, where records from the Byzantine to the
pre-Nabataean period were detected

Dall’oasi alla città. Paesaggi urbani nell’Arabia preislamica
No full textAlla luce delle più recenti missioni archeologiche ed epigrafiche operanti nelle diverse aree della Penisola arabica, questo contributo intende presentare le problematiche formative delle complesse realtà insediative sviluppatesi nelle regioni dell’Arabia antica a partire dalla fine dell’Età del Bronzo e per tutta l’Età del Ferro (XIII sec. a.C. - VI sec. d.C.). Mediante un approccio di tipo geo-archeologico si vuol porre l’accento sulle strategie insediative elaborate per la nascita e lo sviluppo delle oasi urbane dell’Arabia antica
Softstone Vessels from Ḫor Al-Hamām. Rescue Archaeology and Remote Sensing in Al-Bāṭinah North
No full textThe aim of this paper is to introduce the results of a rescue archaeology procedure that took place in Ḫor al-Hamām, in the Al Batinah North Governorate, in 2010 and 2019, under the patronage of the Ministry of Heritage and Tourism, Sultanate of Oman (MHT). A rich set of materials was collected within an agricultural field later on extensively built up. Although comparable with other corpora of materials excavated in south-eastern Arabia, the assemblage of Ḫor al-Hamām stands out for the inner variety of the different artefacts’ classes, which also includes copper weapons and pottery vessel, and their chronological heterogeneity: Wādī Suq period (1900-1600 BCE) and Late Bronze Age (1600-1300 BCE). Focusing on the softstones, this paper is also addressed to contextualize these materials in their paleo-environment, by a remote sensing geoarchaeological approach for the definition of the archaeological landscapes between Ṣaḥam and its inner land, Fulayj al-Ḥarṯ
