Il Museo Archeologico Nazionale di Firenze conserva nelle sue collezioni un'interessante raccolta di 88 signacula ex aere, i piccoli strumenti in bronzo, recanti un'iscrizione e utilizzati non solo per imprimere meccanicamente un marchio su merci e prodotti, ma anche, una volta inchiostrati, per apporre rapidamente la propria firma su documenti di ogni genere. Si tratta di una raccolta che si è formata nel tempo, attraverso donazioni, acquisti e lasciti provenienti da varie collezioni, mentre pochi sono gli esemplari provenienti da scavi e da ricerche archeologiche. Si presenta qui l'edizione scientifica degli 88 signacula, con una puntuale revisione critica dei testi iscritti, preceduta da un'ampia introduzione riservata all’impiego dei signacula nel mondo antico, alle tecniche di fabbricazione, alla loro importanza per la conoscenza della storia economica e sociale del mondo romano, alla storia degli studi dedicati a questa classe di instrumentum inscriptum.

Questa nuova edizione del Manuale di epigrafia latina, contiene numerosi emendamenti, aggiorna¬menti e ampliamenti, per lo più suggeriti da quanti nel corso di questi anni lo hanno impiegato sia come testo per i corsi universitari di Epigrafia latina, sia come opera di consultazione, sia come strumento per avvicinarsi all’affa-scinante mondo delle iscrizioni. L’apparato iconografico è stato migliorato e arricchito con l’inserimento di nuove illustrazioni, tutte accompagnate dalla trascrizione del testo del quale ora, grazie all’inserimento di un QR Code, è disponibile online una traduzione in lingua italiana. Sono state poi notevol¬mente ampliate le parti riguardanti le iscrizioni “false”, le tecniche di rilievo fotografico, i sussidi informatici per lo studio dell’epigrafia, in particolare le banche dati, e, soprattutto, l’instrumentum inscriptum. La bibliografia è stata integrata e aggiornata, mentre alle appendici è stato aggiunto l’elenco dei consoli, dal 2.98 a.C. al 476 d.C., disposti in ordine alfabetico per nome e per cognome.

Il volume raccoglie i contributi presentati in occasione di un incontro di studio internazionale svoltosi a Macerata a giugno del 2009 sulla scia di altri precedenti appuntamenti che hanno preso l’avvio a Pecs nel 1991 ed i cui risultati sono stati regolarmente pubblicati in volumi che vanno sotto il comune denominatore di Instrumenta inscripta. L’incontro maceratese è dedicato all’instrumentum inscriptum dei santuari e dei luoghi di culto ove i manufatti iscritti sono presenti tra i materiali dell’edilizia, tra la suppellettile destinata al culto, tra le offerte votive ed i "souvenirs". Oggetti, dunque, di natura estremamente variegata cui sono dedicati gli scritti di questo volume; sulla base di materiali editi ed inediti, si è voluto offrire uno spaccato sulla diffusione della scrittura, e di conseguenza sull’alfabetizzazione, in questo particolare ed importante ambito del mondo romano, affrontando il tema da un punto di vista storico, epigrafico ed archeologico. I lavori raccolti in questa sede, frutto delle ricerche scientifiche di vari specialisti nel campo dell’instrumentum, permettono, dunque, non solo di fare il punto della situazione, ma anche di offrire sostanziali novità in materia.

The analysis of Latin inscriptions definitively confirms that specularius and speculariarius were two completely different activities which also required a lot of skills different. On the one hand, therefore, there are the specularii, manufacturers and/or sellers of mirrors, which must have been numerous in the city of Rome, since their collegium is attested, but which are not present at least for now, in inscriptions. On the other hand, however, we have many inscriptions of speculariarii. The term defines both those who manufactured panels in lapis specularis, but also in glass, for windows, and those who provided for their care and maintenance.

In questo secondo supplemento al Corpus delle iscrizioni romane di Verona e del suo territorio, si presenta lo studio scientifico di due importanti iscrizioni, menzionanti un seviro augustale e un liberto di un imperatore, probabilmente Marco Aurelio, finora conosciute solo attraverso la tradizione erudita. Si pubblica inoltre, per la prima volta, l'edizione scientifica due stele sepolcrali, reimpiegate una nella cripta dell'abbazia di San Pietro di Villanova (San Bonifacio, Verona) e l'altra inserita nelle mura fatte costruire da Teodorico.

Riedizione delle iscrizioni provenienti dal tempio di Minerva che nel 1835 venne scoperto da Giovanni Girolamo Orti Manara nei pressi di Marano di Valpolicella. Tutte le iscrizioni furono edite sia da Orti Manara subito dopo la scoperta sia da Theodor Mommsen nel Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum qualche anno dopo, ma spesso in maniera molto approssimativa e senza un'accurata descrizione dei monumenti. Il riesame autoptico dei pezzi ancora reperibili ha consentito di precisare meglio la loro destinazione d'uso, e di formulare una nuova proposta di lettura di CIL V 3961 = 3910. Nel caso delle iscrizioni andate perdute, l'analisi dei disegni che il pittore Giuseppe Razzetti fece al momento del ritrovamento delle iscrizioni ha non solo permesso la correzione della lettura di CIL V 3908, ma anche nuove interpretazioni di CIL V 3907 e CIL V 3913.

EnglishTwo inscribed slabs, one in the Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm and the other in the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, make mention of a T. Aelius Evangelus, who set up his own sepulcher first for himself and his partner and, later, for himself and his wife, granting the use, in the latter case, also to a natural daughter, born from the previous relationship, to a M. Ulpius Telesphorus, to the freemen and freedwomen and their descendants. Also on both slabs he is portrayed working within his lanificium. Both reliefs, in fact, depict one of the phases of textile production: the preparation of the yarn. It is a very important document, up to now unique, where the whole organization of work in a lanificium, active in the last decades of the second century A.D., is well highlighted. It is thus possible to follow the various steps, from the raw material to the finished product, and to know the people employed in the processing and their tasks. italianoDue lastre iscritte, una conservat...

Two inscribed slabs, one in the Medelhavsmuseet in Stockholm and the other in the J. Paul Getty Museum in Malibu, make mention of a T.

It is thus possible to follow the various steps, from the raw material to the finished product, and to know the people employed in the processing and their tasks.Due lastre iscritte, una conservata nel Medelhavsmuseet di Stoccolma e l’altra nel J. Paul Getty Museum di Malibu, ricordano che un certo T. Aelius Evangelus allestì il proprio sepolcro dapprima per sé e la sua compagna e, in un secondo tempo, per sé e per la moglie, concedendone l’uso, in quest’ultimo caso, anche alla figlia naturale, nata dalla precedente relazione, a un certo M. Ulpius Telesphorus, ai liberti e alle liberte e a i loro discendenti. Inoltre su entrambe le lastre egli è raffigurato intento al lavoro all’interno del suo lanificium. I rilievi, infatti, raffigurano una delle fasi della produzione tessile: la preparazione del filato. Si tratta di un documento molto importante, finora unico, dove l’organizzazione complessiva del lavoro di un lanificium, attivo negli ultimi decenni del II secolo d.C., viene messa bene in evidenza. E’ così possibile sia seguire i singoli passaggi, dalla materia prima al prodotto finito, sia conoscere i personaggi coinvolti nella lavorazione e le loro occupazioni

As is well known, among the unpublished works of Gaetano Marini there is the first corpus of ancient Christian inscriptions of the whole Roman world. Divided into four volumes, now it is in the Vatican Apostolic Library (cod. Vat. lat. 9071-9074). Here for the first time, with great foresight, Marini has brought together and presented all the ancient Christian instrumentum inscriptum known up to then. In this work I intends to present, as a case study, the section dedicated to the Sigilla, i.e. the anuli signatorii and the signacula ex aere. My choice is motivated by the renewed interest in the study of these inscribed objects, hitherto rather neglected despite their undoubted information potential. The limits of Marini’s sylloge are the characteristic limits of the time in which Marini worked, even if he tried to overcome them in the belief that one of the main tasks of a scholar was to collect as many documents as possible.

Not knowing with certainty the origin of a Latin inscription is one of the main difficulties that the epigraphist encounters in his research. This can lead to serious scientific errors, with the creation of “ghost persons” or the incorrect attribution of an inscription to a place or persons . So we present here as a case study an inscription of a frumentarius, an elite soldier with intelligence duties, who all scholars have always believed to come from Verona. In reality, the geological analysis of the lithotype (Proconnesian marble), never used in Roman Verona for sepulchral monuments in the early Imperial age , and the comparison wi th other very similar stel es from Rome and characteristic not only of the Praetoriani and Vigiles , but also of the Frumentarii, has brought very
interesting results. This inscription is not from Verona but comes from Rome and entered Scipione Maffei's collection through some collecting transfers that are difficult to reconstruct, at least for the moment.

This paper is focused on three unpublished inscriptions, from the territory of ancient Compsa, today Conza della Campania (Avellino). They were engraved on a particular type of tombstone, which Theodor Mommsen first called cupa. The inscriptions are noteworthy for the linguistic
phenomena and for the onomastic aspects, among which is the attestation of the female surname Sabbatis, of Semitic origin and rarely attested outside of Rome and Ostia.

A votive altar, now in the Museo Archeologico al Teatro Romano di Verona, is published. The discovery data are unknown, but it certainly comes from the Verona area for the lithotype used. The altar is interesting both for the engraved figures, not refined, but unusual for some aspects, and for the inscription. It is an ex voto to Saturnus, revered here as a planetary divinity, associated with the other six gods of the week: in fact, seven carved stars appear on the altar, representing the seven planets.

In this paper we study and publish the text of 24 inscribed lead labels found in Altino. The inscriptions refer to the trade of woolen products, so we examine the names of the people involved in the production cycle, the vocabulary and type of goods, the transport modes. We also focus on the meaning of the term vellus / vellera, trying to determine its standard weight and whether it is possible that the bales of wool were used as a packaging for mixed loads.

The paper presents the results of the study of the age at the moment of death on Christian Aquileian inscriptions. Firstly, the wide range of ages represented is striking, while notable are the mortality peaks in the first years of life, a fact that finds comparisons with analyses of child remains found in some Italian necropolises. It should also be noted that 54% of the individuals did not live beyond the age of fifteen and that 75% did not live past the age of thirty. Even the examination of the months in which an individual died or was buried also stimulates further reflections. The months with high peaks are July, August and October: since fevers occur in summer and autumn, with the consequent deaths, are very often linked to malaria, it is perhaps possible to assume that in the 4th-5th century AD in the territory of Aquileia, as well as in other regions of the Roman Empire, less control over the water regime favoured a significant increase in malaria.

The inscriptions are «lapides loquentes», that can transmit not only important informations, but also feelings and emotions, as if they were «alive». I was always deeply affected by the fact that the inscriptions are too often put in a position to no longer be able to communicate their message, and so, they are, in fact or metaphorically, «buried alive».
Many inscriptions have disappeared, buried, already in ancient and late antique times, but there are also examples for the modern and contemporary ages, in the foundations of walls or buildings or in pillars of bridges or they are victim of natural phenomena or war episodes. Even more serious, then, is the fact that many inscriptions are not buried
materially, but are in various ways hidden from the scholar’s view. In this paper I will present three case studies related to inscriptions that mention a sexvir Augustalis, an eques and a fictor pontificum.

The aim of this volume is to collect contributions that explore the topic of Europe’s evangelization, by involving scholars interested in different disciplinary sectors. The period taken into consideration covers approximately ten centuries, stretching from Constantine the Great to Luis IX.
Starting from Constantine’s fundamental revolution in 313, the Church had the opportunity to spread its message both within and outside the Empire through an intensive evangelization effort. Later, within the crusade ideals this effort became not only an “instrument” to “export” the faith, but also a way to repress the enemies of the Church within the Christian world.
Contributions on the various aspects of the missionary figure are welcomed: monks, priests, bishops, as well as kings, queens, emperors and empresses who played a role in supporting the great effort of the Church to spread the Word of God through both the West and the East can be considered as case studies. Special focus will be given to the connection between the expansion of Christianity and military conquest, as well as to the impact of missionary work in its socio-historical context.
With an eye to the most recent historiography, contributors should take into account different perspectives, exploring their topic from a literary, hagiographic, anthropologic and material point of view. Thus, they should elaborate an original analysis of missionarism and its diachronic development.
Suggested topics:
- Christianity’s success and diffusion within the Roman Empire
- Evangelization and pagan resistance
- Arianism and other heresies
- Relationships between Church and regna
- War and evangelization
- Material evidence of missionary activities
- Analysis of documentary sources
- Miracles and conversions
- Martyrdom
- Diachronic evolution of missionarism
Abstracts in English of no more than 2.300 characters should be sent, along with the CV, by March 31st, 2015 to the following email address: epiazza@unict.it
The acceptance of the contributions will be communicated by June 30th, 2015. The deadline for the definitive submission of manuscripts written in English, French, German, Italian or Spanish, is December 31st, 2015. Each paper should have an extension ranging from 30.000 to 60.000 characters, including both bibliography and notes consistent with the publication criteria (instruction for paper presentation will be sent to authors of the accepted abstracts). Contributions will be subject to a process of double-blind peer review.
The volume, provided with ISBN and DOI codes, as a physical (limited number) and digital document, will be published by Alteritas-Interazione fra i Popoli. A round table for the volume’s presentation will be organized at the University of Verona.

Abstract: In this paper we study and publish the text of 24 inscribed lead labels found in Altino. The inscriptions refer to the trade of woolen products, so we examine the names of the people involved in the production cycle, the vocabulary and type of goods, the transport modes. We also focus on the meaning of the term vellus / vellera, trying to determine its standard weight and whether it is possible that the bales of wool were used as a packaging for mixed loads.

L'occasione di presentare al pubblico alcune iscrizioni e sculture di età classica e rinascimentale della collezione Giusti, in corso di restauro e di studio, è ragione di una riflessione più ampia sul ruolo delle antichità nei giardini in età moderna e sulla concezione dei giardini nella cultura classica e nella società romana in particolare. Ospitato a Palazzo Giusti, il cui giardino un tempo fu sede dell'omonima collezione, il convegno internazionale affronta un tema di antiquaria in una prospettiva interdisciplinare e prevede relazioni su argomenti di storia antica e archeologia, di storia dell'arte e di tecniche di restauro, senza tralasciare le testimonianze degli intellettuali del passato e le ricerche d'archivio.
