Yegül. Begun in the century after the death of Alexander the Great, this delightful and complex building has been admired by travelers, depicted by artists and architects, and studied by scholars for hundreds of years. Yegül provides a wide-ranging overview of the building, treating such topics as early travelers, excavation history, inscriptions, construction techniques, the colossal Roman imperial portraits from the temple cella, religion and cult, and comparisons to other temples and buildings throughout Asia Minor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYegül’s block-by-block description of the extant elements of the building, accompanied by hundreds of drawings and photographs, elucidates the two primary phases in the temple’s design and construction, which date to the Hellenistic and the Roman imperial periods. All elements of the building are illustrated in their recently conserved state, with centuries-old discoloration now removed to reveal the original marble.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEditor’s Preface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAuthor’s Preface\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSummary\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eÖzet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Illustrations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eList of Tables\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePlans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 1.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArchaeological Investigations at the Temple\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Summary Description of the Building and Its History\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Life and Afterlife of the Temple\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDescription of the Temple of Artemis by Early Travelers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDescription of the Building: The Physical Remains\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSurveying and Recording Conventions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSome Commonly Used Construction Features and Methods\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn Overview of Hellenistic and Roman Construction and Major Phases\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Walls\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFoundation Conditions of the Temple\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eColumns of the East End\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCapitals\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Entablature\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 3.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBuilding History and Chronology\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eState of the Scholarship\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHistorical, Epigraphic, and Numismatic Considerations for Design and Chronology\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMaterials and Methods of Construction: Technical and Stylistic Considerations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeristyle and Wall Foundations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEast and West Pronaos Porches\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFurther Considerations for a Closer Dating of the Roman Phase\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterior Architecture of the Roman East Cella\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInterior Architecture of the Roman West Cella and Its Roof Structure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReligion and Cults in the Sanctuary as Forerunners of the Imperial Cult\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eImperial Cult and the Artemis Temple\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eChapter 4.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArchitectural Analysis, Design, and Comparisons\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHellenistic Phase Design: The Shape of the Sacred\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoman Phase Design: The Shape of Power\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eArchitectural Analysis and Comparisons\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eConclusions\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBibliography\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIllustration Credits\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGeneral Index\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIndex of Sardis Inventory Numbers\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Harvard University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43109191549026,"sku":"9780674248519","price":4500.0,"currency_code":"TRY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0681\/0881\/2386\/files\/sardis01_bb8433eb-3511-4dc6-9292-63df197a3640.jpg?v=1783800380","url":"https:\/\/www.arkeolojisanat.com\/products\/archaeological-exploration-of-sardis-report-7-the-temple-of-artemis-at-sardis-28424","provider":"Arkeoloji ve Sanat","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
