The Excavations at Ancient Halieis, Vol. 1 - The Fortifications and Adjacent Structures (Hardcover)

Volume 1 describes the development of the fortification system at Halieis, from simple earthwork defenses to massive walls with towers and gates. Halieis s excellent natural harbor made it a target for attacks from other cities. The increasingly complex defenses are the city s response to this aggression and new developments in siege warfare. McAllister presents both an extensively illustrated overall view of the fortifications and a detailed analysis of the materials and methods of construction. Other contributions include a study of the fortifications that are now submerged in the ancient harbor, a study of the city mint, and a report on an engineering study to establish the elevations at the site."
