About the Book

English summary: Since the erection of the new protective roof of Terrace House 2 and its opening to tourists shortly afterwards, it has been one of the main attractions of antique Ephesos. Terrace House 2 is a big insula housing seven dwelling units built in the type of peristyle houses. The privileged status of the owners of Dwelling Unit 6 can already be hinted at the central location of the house and its entrance directly from Curetes Street, a main thoroughfare and processional way of the city. Fortunately, the home owner of Dwelling Unit 6, Gaius Flavius Furius Aptus, is known by inscriptions. He was responsible for the generous rebuilding of Dwelling Unit 6 in the building periods II (120 AD) and III (mid 2nd century AD), including big and lavishly decorated halls, which were used for banquets and celebrations (Marble Hall 31, Apsidal Hall 8). Gaius Flavius Furius Aptus not only held municipal offices, but was also priest of Dionysos Oreios Bakchios pro poleos. In this capacity, he opened his house for meetings of the Dionysos association, over which he presided. This is mainly indicated by the absence of private rooms in the house; albeit connecting doors between Dwelling Unit 6 and Dwelling Units 4 and 7 give evidence that these three houses belonged to the family of Gaius Flavius Furius Aptus. Following the publication concept of the Ephesian Terrace Houses, the publication of Dwelling Unit 6 provides a detailed description of the architecture, the reconstruction of the building periods, the water supply and drainage, the marble decor of the walls and floors, the wall paintings, stucco work, mosaics, sculpture, small finds, ceramic, glass and coin finds as well as the analysis of the archaeozoological remains; moreover, the numerous graffiti on the wall paintings giving a direct insight into everyday life are discussed as well as the extensive restoration work of Marble Hall 31, which has been undertaken in recent years. The publication also includes an analysis of the pre-use of the area, whereby as a new result a peristyle house can be assumed already in late Hellenistic times. The volume also provides a CD, containing visualisations of certain rooms as well as building and floor plans.German description: Die sieben Wohneinheiten des Hanghauses 2 im Bautypus von grossen Peristylhausern bilden seit der Uberdachung mit einem Schutzbau und der Offnung fur Besucher eine der touristischen Hauptattraktionen des Ruinengelandes von Ephesos. Der privilegierte Status der Bewohner der hier vorgelegten Wohneinheit 6 wird bereits durch die zentrale Lage und den direkten Eingang vom embolos (Kuretenstrasse) angezeigt. Glucklicherweise ist ihr Eigentumer Gaius Flavius Furius Aptus durch Inschriften bekannt. Er ist als Bauherr fur den grosszugigen Ausbau des Hauses in den Bauphasen II (120 n. Chr.) und III (ca. 150 n. Chr.) mit geraumigen, mit Marmor luxurios ausgestatteten Fest- und Bankettsalen verantwortlich. Er bekleidete nicht nur hohe stadtische Amter, sondern war auch Priester des Dionysos Oreios Bakchios pro poleos. Als Priester und Vorstand stellte er sein palastartiges Stadthaus als Versammlungsort fur diesen Dionysosverein zur Verfugung, wofur neben vielen anderen Hinweisen vor allem das Fehlen von privat genutzten Raumen spricht. Jedoch wird durch Turverbindungen zu den benachbarten Wohneinheiten 4 und 7, in denen diese Raumfunktionen vorhanden waren, angezeigt, dass die Wohneinheit 6 zusammen mit diesen Wohneinheiten im Besitz der Familie des Gaius Flavius Furius Aptus stand. Dem Konzept der Publikation der Hanghauser in Ephesos folgend, werden in dem reich illustrierten Band, dem auch eine CD mit Visualisierungen und Planen beigegeben ist, der Baubefund mit den Bauphasen, der Architektur und den Wasserinstallationen, die Ausstattung mit den Marmorwand- und -bodenverkleidungen, der Wandmalerei, den Stuckdekorationen und den Mosaiken ebenso wie die Funde mit den Skulpturen, der Keramik, den Kleinfunden, dem Glas und den Munzen sowie den archaozoologischen Funden vorgelegt; daruber hinaus werden auch die Graffiti vorgestellt, die einen unmittelbaren Einblick ins Alltagsleben gewahren und sich in grosser Zahl auf den Wandmalereien befinden. Ein weiterer Abschnitt behandelt die Restaurierungen der Marmorvertafelungen im Marmorsaal 31. Daruber hinaus ergab die kontextuelle Analyse der in der Wohneinheit 6 durchgefuhrten Grabungen zusammen mit den daraus stammenden Funden, dass auf dem Areal dieses Hauses bereits in spathellenistischer Zeit ein Hofhaus an der Kuretenstrasse vorhanden war.
