The Triconch House at Aphrodisias is one of the best preserved late antique houses in the Roman world. It represents only one phase, however, in a much longer continuum of occupation of its site, which was located at the heart of the monumental center of the Greco-Roman city. This book presents a detailed account of the late antique building as well as the history and development of its urban location, roughly the size of a city block, over the course of more than 1000 years, from around the first century BC through the twelfth century AD.
The series is dedicated to the publication of archaeological research at the ancient site of Aphrodisias. Aphrodisias was a prosperous city of the Roman period, well known for its cult of Aphrodite and its marble-carvers, and it has remarkably preserved remains from the second century BC to the sixth century AD. The archaeology of the city is especially well-suited to the study of public art and monuments in their ancient contexts and to the investigation of the elaborate architectural mise-en-scène of urban political life in the Eastern Roman empire.
