Description
Brickstamps of Constantinople provides archaeologists and historians with the first major catalogue and analysis of stamped bricks manufactured in Constantinople and its vicinity in the Late Roman and Early Byzantine periods.
The catalogue assembles not only all previously published stamps but also a large amount of unpublished material in archives and museum collections.
Most of the variant stamps are illustrated with a sketch, drawing or photograph.
The text discusses the organization of the brickmaking industry and the purpose of brickstamping, and establishes for the first time a chronological framework for the material.
On the basis of the conclusions, dates are proposed for previously undated structures in the city, and revised dates are given for other monuments.
