This fourth volume in a series devoted to medieval topography looks
at issues of urbanism in a number of Byzantine cities along the
eastern frontier during the reign of Justinian (AD 527-565).
Archaological and documentary evidence are cited for ten cities,
including Palmyra, Antioch, Amida and Hierapolis, with details on
their location, history, date, their walls, gateways and other
structures. The book also includes lots of plans and photographs of
any standing remains. An overview of the urban transformation of
Syrian and Mesopotamian cities as a whole during the 6th century,
is given at the end. Italian text.
