Between 2007 and 2012 the Department for Underwater Archaeology of the Croatian Conservation Institute from Zagreb and the Department of Humanistic Studies of the Ca' Foscari University of Venice collaborated in the recording, underwater excavation and analysis of the unusually well-preserved wreck of a 16th century Venetian merchantman in the Svetti Pavao shallow off the southern shore of the island of Mljet, Croatia. The shipwreck preserved many personal possessions of the crew as well as a number of bronze artillery pieces and the remains of a cargo of luxury and richly decorated ceramic material from Iznik and other oriental workshops. Although the excavation is not complete, this volume presents the results of the project so far. The methodological and technical aspects of the underwater investigation of the site, mainly by photogrammetry, are described; the historical and archaeological context of navigation in the late Medieval period in the eastern Mediterranean discussed; and the recovered artefacts described and catalogued in detail, together with the remains of the ship and its equipment that, because of depth and of problems of conservation, have been left in situ. The conservation and restoration of the finds are described in an appendix.

21 papers delivered at a conference in Madrid in 2006 which look at various aspects of the archaeology of early medieval monasticism. The essays focus as one might expect on monasteries in Spain. Essays mostly in Spanish with some in French and Italian.

Fifteen papers from a conference held in Madrid in 2005 on the subject of Gaul and Spain from the 5th to 7th century AD, looking especially at evidence for the migration and influence of various cultural groups across Europe. The contributors examine the problems within this subject, especially interpreting the material culture evidence, and go on to look in more detail at funerary assemblages in both Gaul and Spain for evidence of the presence and influence of other cultures at the time of the disintegration of the Roman Empire. Text in Spanish, French and German.
