About the Book

English summary: The ancient city of Selinous on Sicily is known for its magnificent temples and impressive city walls (published in the first volume of the Selinous series) from the Greek period. The ruins from the period of the Punics have been noted to a lesser degree. Selinous, which was founded in the 7th cent. BC by Greek colonists, had developed into a flourishing town, when it was conquered by the Carthagians and heavily destroyed in 409 BC. The second volume of the Selinous series deals with the Punic period of the history of the town, focusing on the years between the Greek period of glory and the abandonment of the settlement in 250 BC.The comprehensive publication on the Punic remains adds immensely on the knowledge of Punic Selinous. On the basis of a detailed map of the acropolis, Sophie Helas analyses the living quarters and their uraban context (stoa with shops, sanctuaries, 'official' buildings). More than 60 buildings are published for the first time with new plans and reconstructions. Therefore the publication makes a significant contribution to the understanding of the Punic living environment in the western Mediterranean. A synthetic part is followed by detailed catalogues of the houses and their equipment, digressions by architects as well as a presentation of the excavation results of the Punic layers.The author is always concerned to imbed and analyse the cultural elements. The potential of Selinous regarding questions of acculturation is especially important. The new settlers, who occupied the ruins of the Greek city in the last third of the 4th cent. BC, differed from the former inhabitants markedly: Writing and material culture are related to the Phoenician-Punic cities of the western Mediterranean, especially to Carthage. The change of the appearance of the city and of the houses results out of the necessities and ideals of the new settlers. The publication ends with a detailed analysis of the degree, dimension and time of the Hellenisation of the Punic architecture. The volume is supplied with a detailed Italian summary. German description: Die antike Stadt Selinunt auf Sizilien ist vor allem durch die grossartigen Tempelbauten und die beeindruckenden Stadtmauern der griechischen Zeit bekannt, die im ersten Band der Selinus-Reihe vorgelegt wurden. Die Ruinen, die auf die Zeit der punischen Bewohner zuruckgehen, haben dagegen weniger Beachtung gefunden. Nachdem Selinus im 7. Jahrhundert v. Chr. von griechischen Kolonisten gegrundet worden und zu einer bluhenden Stadt herangewachsen war, wurde die Stadt im Jahre 409 v. Chr. von den Karthagern eingenommen und stark zerstort. Die ehemals griechische Grundung geriet nun unter karthagische Herrschaft. Der neu erschienene Band II der Selinus-Reihe behandelt diese punische Periode der Stadtgeschichte, die zwischen der griechischen Blutezeit und der volligen Aufgabe der Siedlung im Jahre 250 v. Chr. liegt. Es geht um die archaologischen Reste des punischen Selinunts, die bereits seit einigen Jahrzehnten ausgegraben wurden. Die umfassende Publikation zur punischen Wohnkultur tragt entscheidend zur Kenntnis des punischen Selinunts bei. Auf der Grundlage eines steingerechten Planes der Akropolis, der dem Buch beiliegt, beschreibt Sophie Helas die Wohnhauser und ihr Umfeld (Ladenstoa, Heiligtumer, 'offentliche' Gebaude) ausfuhrlich. Uber 60 Gebaude werden in neuen, detailreichen Planen und Rekonstruktionen erstmals vorgelegt. Die Publikation leistet so einen zentralen Beitrag zur Erschliessung der punischen Lebenswelt des westlichen Mittelmeerraumes. Auf einen synthetischen Teil folgen ausfuhrliche Kataloge zu den Hausern und ihren Ausstattungselementen, Exkurse beteiligter Bauforscher sowie eine Vorlage der Stratigrafie, der Befunde und des Fundmaterials aus den punischen Schichten. Dabei geht es der Autorin immer auch um die Analyse der kulturellen Elemente. Gerade in Hinsicht auf Fragen der Akkulturation besitzt Selinunt grosse Aussagekraft. Die neuen Bewohner, die sich im letzten Drittel des 4. Jahrhunderts in den Ruinen der griechischen Stadt einrichteten, unterschieden sich von der Vorgangerbevolkerung in vielerlei Hinsicht: Die Schrift- und Sachkultur ist mit derjenigen der punisch-phonizischen Stadte des westlichen Mittelmeerraumes, insbesondere Karthagos, verwandt. Die Veranderungen des stadtischen Erscheinungsbildes und der Wohnhauser wurden von den Bedurfnissen und Idealvorstellungen der neuen Bevolkerung geleitet und deuten auf ein anderes Verstandnis von Stadt als Lebensraum. In diesem Spannungsfeld zwischen punischer Tradition und griechischen Einfluss schliesst die Arbeit mit einer differenzierten Analyse von Grad, Ausmass und Zeitpunkt der Hellenisierung der punischen Wohnarchitektur.Der Band ist mit einer ausfuhrlichen Zusammenfassung in italienischer Sprache ausgestattet.Uber diese Reihe: Seit 1973 erscheinen in der renommierten Reihe Sonderschriften des Deutschen Archaologischen Instituts Rom Monographien zu bedeutenden Forschungen in Italien und Nordafrika. In Vorbereitung sind Studien zu herausragenden Bauten der griechisch-romischen Antike wie dem Poseidontempel in Paestum, den Befestigungen des antiken Syrakus oder dem Kolosseum in Rom. Italian description: L'antica citta di Selinunte in Sicilia e nota sopratutto per i magnifici templi e le imponenti mura urbane di eta greca, presentate nel primo volume della serie Selinus, mentre le rovine di eta punica hanno suscitato minore attenzione. Dopo essere stata fondata nel VII sec. a.C. da coloni greci ed essersi sviluppata in una fiorente polis, nel 409 a.C. Selinunte venne sconfitta dai Cartaginesi. Quella che era stata una fondazione greca divenne dominio cartaginese. Il volume II della serie Selinus tratta il periodo punico della storia della citta, dalla fioritura greca al completo abbandono dell'impianto nel 250 a.C. L'esauriente pubblicazione sulla cultura punica dell'abitare contribuisce in maniera decisiva alla conoscenza della Selinunte punica. Sulla base di una pianta dettagliata dell'acropoli, allegata al volume, Sophie Helas descrive in modo particolareggiato l'edilizia abitativa e gli edifici circostanti (stoa con botteghe, santuari, edifici 'pubblici'). Vengono presentati per la prima volta oltre 60 edifici con nuove piante e ricostruzioni dettagliate. La pubblicazione fornisce quindi un contributo essenziale per lo studio del mondo punico del Mediterraneo occidentale. Una prima parte sintetica e seguita da dettagliati cataloghi sulle case e i loro arredi, trattazioni di architetti che hanno partecipato allo scavo e presentazione dei risultati di scavo inclusi i reperti degli strati punici. L'autrice analizza inoltre gli elementi culturali. Proprio per quanto concerne la questione dell'acculturazione il caso di Seliunte e molto eloquente. I nuovi abitanti che si insediarono nell'ultimo terzo del IV secolo nelle rovine della citta greca si distinguono dalla popolazione precedente da molti punti di vista. La cultura scritta e materiale e vicina a quella delle citta punico-fenicie del Mediterraneo occidentale, in particolare Cartagine. Le trasformazioni del quadro urbano e degli edifici abitativi sono guidate dalle esigenze e dalle concezioni ideali della nuova popolazione e indicano una diversa idea della citta come spazio vitale. In questa contrapposizione tra tradizione punica e influenza greca il lavoro si chiude con un'analisi differenziata su grado, diffusione e periodo dell'ellenizzazione dell'architettura abitativa punica.Il volume contiene un dettagliato riassunto in lingua italiana.
