Francesca Dell’Acqua Telling the Incarnation during Byzantine Iconoclasm The intention of this seminar is to offer regards croisés on how the image conveys narration in Byzantium and in West. Previous studies have traditionally insisted on accentuating the narrative dimension of western art, made to instruct and remind, while it has emphasised the cultic aspects of the Byzantine icon, seen as an embodiment of the divine. Today I will introduce objects, in particular enkolpia, that were contested between Byzantium and Rome, which were probably produced in multicultural centres, most likely pilgrimage sites, and were associated with iconophile practices. They reveal both the aspects – the narrative and the iconic – indicated above. Being relic containers and amulets, they were object of private devotion if not veneration. At the same time, their imagery tells the viewer about the Incarnation of the Logos, his redeeming agency, and the active role of the Theotokos (‘God bearer’) in the economy of salvation. Their imagery does this in ways that go beyond the conventions expected on a category of objects conceived to reach a wide and varied audience, and that seem to respond to contemporary theological and political preoccupations shared in the East and West in the period of the image controversy. The sources of these novelties can be retraced in liturgical texts (hymns and homilies), traditional as well as very recent, some of which are even transcribed on the enkolpia. We can imagine that hanging from the necks of believers, such amuletic-relic containers became means to pray, kiss, touch, and apprehend the Incarnate Logos.

The Siča/Lučica Late Bronze Age Hoard2005 •
This article is a publication of the Siča/Lučica hoard found in the Kordun region, close to the city of Karlovac. Most of the hoard was discovered at a secondary site – the result of its movement during excavation of soil. Since the hoard’s discovery was recorded outside of the context of a settlement or cemetery, there is some question as to the purpose for this manner of deposition of items and the phenomenon of hoards in general and their possible significance. Based on the quantity of its contents (287 items) and their typological characteristics, the hoard can be classified among the mixed-content hoards dated to the second phase of the northern Croatian hoards, i.e. the Br D/Ha A periods.
