predents A R C H E O I T A L Y P H O T O | @andreareggiano • Tavole Palatine | Metaponto | Matera | Basilicata • The Palatine Tables are the remains of a six-century Doric peripteral temple of the sixth century BC dedicated to the mythological divinity Hera. The remains are thus called perhaps in reference to the identification, in the past, with the site of an ancient palace. The remains of the temple, with the adyton cell in the center and preceded by a pronaos, consist of 15 columns with capitals of Doric order. Of the 15 columns, 10 are on the northern side and 5 on the southern side. Originally the columns were 32, since the temple was composed of a peristasis of 12 columns on the long sides and 6 on the short sides. The stylobate was 34.29 meters long and 13.66 meters wide, the cell 17.79 x 8.68 meters. The temple is very degraded, since it was built with local limestone. In the 5th century BC it was equipped with a fictile roof with polychrome decoration of Ionian tradition, with lion-like protomes and gargoyles. In the vicinity of the temple numerous remains of this ancient terracotta decoration, statuettes, ceramics and other pieces of columns now exhibited at the National Archaeological Museum of Metaponto were found during excavations in 1926. • @ig_italia • Local Manager @ig_basilicata_ | @vinscif @ce_simone @leonardo_telesca • F E A T U R E D T A G | #igworldclub_archaeology • Selected by @_.vegvisir._ • M A I L | igwarchaeology@gmail.com • M E M B E R S | @igworldclub_thematic • F O L L O W | @igworldclub • #thematic_080619 #igworldclub #archaeology #archeology #archeologia #arqueologia #archeologie #archaeologie #antiquearchaeology #archaeological #ancientbuilding #archaeologicalsite #archeologicalsite #ancientarchitecture #ancientruins #ancientcity #ancient #ancientworld #archaeologylovers #heritage #archeotravelers #visititaly #visitbasilicata #Metaponto #tavolepalatine #temple #doricotemple #heratemple

ALEXANDER THE GREAT (Updated) I haven’t been very active the last few months. Life got in the middle. but I will be posting new art soon. In the meantime, I updated this piece of Alexander (yeah, again) giving him a more suitable helmet design, with a lion based on Hellenistic statues of Alexander or other Hellenic leaders wearing the scalp of the Nemean Lion Herakles-style (the main inspiration was a bust of king Mithridates VI of Pontus). The previous helmet design was a bit noisy and looked a bit too Persian with a touch of fantasy. I prefer this simpler design in that case. Also I tried to get a cleaner silver effect on the helmet and breastplate, instead of iron as it was supposed to be at first. Some Hellenistic helmets and pieces of armor were silver-plated (like the helmet from Melos, the helmet of Pyrrhus of Epirus, or the shields of the Argyraspides). Someone like Alexander could have worn a silver-plated helmet as well. #art #artist #digitalart #digitalpainting #illustration #painting #arte #conceptart #ancientgreece #greece #greek #macedonia #macedon #hellenistic #hellenic #hellas #classicalantiquity #ancientworld #alexanderthegreat #alejandromagno #heterochromia #persia #persianempire #armor #gaugamela #nemeanlion #medusa

Standing in front of Darius The Great’s tomb in complete awe. Naqsh-e Rustam consists of the colossal tombs of Persian kings dating back to the first millennium BC. ⁣ ⁣ Naqš-e Rustam was already a place of some importance when king Darius I the Great (r.522-486) ordered his monumental tomb - also known as Achaemenid Tomb III - to be carved into the cliff. It is easy to think of a reason why: there is a beautiful echo, which may have inspired people to convert this place into a cult site. The design of Darius' tomb became something of an Achaemenid classic, repeated by his successors (e.g., Tomb I, Tomb II, Tomb IV, and two tombs at Persepolis). ⁣ ⁣ The new standard tomb had the shape of a cross with, in its center, the access to a small chamber, where the king was buried, together with several other people. In the upper register, we can see the king sacrificing; in the central register, we can see his palace; the lower register remained undecorated. According to the Greek historian Ctesias of Cnidus, Darius' father Hystaspes died during the construction works of his son's tomb (quote). ⁣ ⁣ If you are planning to visit, go to Shiraz and visit Persepolis and Naqsh-e Rustam on the same day as they are a few kilometers away from each other. ⁣ ​⁣ ​Follow @thehumanoriginproject⁣ ​ @ayda_june

Philae Temples, Egypt.⁣ ⁣ According to tradition, the island was considered one of the burial places of Osiris, was therefore considered a sacred place; In fact it was considered sacrilegious to get close to anyone who was not a priest. The most important temple is the temple of Isis, built in the Ptolemaic period, dominating the whole island and was the main center of the cult of Isis. In this structure they were joined by two other temples dedicated to the gods Horus and Hathor, so that File, in the second century BC, became one of the most important pilgrimage sites of Ancient Egypt.⁣ The temples were closed in the VI century A.D. by the Byzantine Emperor Justinian I.⁣ ⁣ Follow @thehumanoriginproject⁣ @ataher33

The most representative, best preserved, evocative, and most mysterious nuragic well temple is located near a village in central-western Sardinia ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ "It represents the peak of water temple architecture. Its proportions are so balanced, its geometric composition so exact, so rational that it doesn't seem possible for it to have been built around the year 1000 BC". ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ A description from the 'father' of Sardinian Archaeology, Giovanni Lilliu, of the well temple of Santa Cristina, the sacred nuragic area par excellence, built on a basalt plateau in the territory of the nearby town of Paulilatino. The name derives from the adjacent rural church of Santa Cristina, dating back to the 11th century, of which only part of the apse remains, along with 36 muristenes, characteristic houses that still host the pilgrims during the celebration of novenas in mid-May in honour of the saint and at the end of October in honour of the Archangel Raphael. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ The archaeological site is located a few dozen metres from the medieval Christian church, surrounded by green olive trees. It is divided into two nuclei: in the first you will find a well temple dating back to the final Bronze Age (12th century BC), set in a sacred enclosure (themenos) shaped like a 'lock'. Built with finely worked basalt blocks using accurate techniques, the temple is a jewel with perfect geometric shapes. Inside it is formed by a vestibule, a staircase and a room covered by a tholos (false dome), built in concentric rings. The stairwell has a trapezoidal section with 7 metre-thick joining walls. The 25 steps gradually narrow up to the cell, covered with mirrored lintels: the effect is of an 'inverted staircase'. As you go down the stairs, you will feel a restless sense of descending into the past. The site was dedicated to the water cult, which attracted nuragic people from all over the island.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ ​Follow @thehumanoriginproject⁣⁣ ​ @federico_carboni_photo

A R C H E O I T A L Y P H O T O | @makemake_rc • Oratory of San Pellegrino, Bominaco | Aquila | Abruzzo • The Oratory of San Pellegrino is a medieval oratory in the village of Bominaco, in the municipality of Caporciano in the Province of L'Aquila. The oratory is part of a church of Santa Maria Assunta. An inscription on the back wall of the oratory traces the construction back to 1263 by the abbot Theodino. It is dedicated to San Pellegrino, a martyr venerated in the area, on whose tomb was built around the eighth century. Charlemagne provided the church with land and donated to the Abbey of Farfa. The interior walls of the church of Santa Maria ad Cryptas in Fossa, representing an important testimony of the Abruzzese medieval painting. The interior walls are entirely covered with fresh, which date to the late 13th century. Four rows of frescoes decorated the walls. At the lowest level are faux hanging curtains. Above, 3 rows of narratives representing scenes from the childhood of Christ, the Passion, the Last Judgment, the lives of St. Pellegrino and other saints, and months of the calendar. It was suggested that Charlemagne cycle was also included (now fragmentary). The apex of the vaults is covered with bands of geometric patterns. At least 3 different artists are thought to have produced the paintings, which owe a strong debt to Byzantine-Roman medieval traditions. Scholars have also shown strong interest in lively naturalism in many of the frescoes, suggesting influences of northern Gothic art. • @ig_italia • Local Manager @igabruzzo | @annalisa.2519 • F E A T U R E D T A G | #igworldclub_archaeology • Selected by @_.vegvisir._ • M A I L | igwarchaeology@gmail.com • M E M B E R S | @igworldclub_thematic • F O L L O W | @igworldclub• #thematic_080519 #igworldclub #archaeology #archeology #archeologia #arqueologia #archeologie #archaeologie #antiquearchaeology #archaeological #ancientbuilding #archaeologicalsite #archeologicalsite #ancientarchitecture #ancientruins #ancientcity #ancient #ancientworld #archaeologylovers #heritage #archeotravelers #visitabruzzo #abruzzo #iloveitaly #ilikeitaly #medieval

presents P H O T O | @mimariverestorasyon • The church of St. Nicholas | Demre | Anatolia | Turkey • The church of St. Nicholas is a museum and an ancient Greek Byzantine church located in the modern city of Demre, Antalya province, Turkey. Its use dates from its construction in the 6th century until its last abandonment in 1923, when the remaining Greek natives of Demre were forced to leave from the population exchange between Greece and Turkey. It is known to be the burial place of St. Nicholas of Mira, a 4th century Greek Christian bishop of the ancient city of Mira, an important religious figure for Eastern Orthodox Christians and Roman Catholics and the historical inspiration for Santa Claus. The Church is on UNESCO's provisional list to become a world heritage site. The church was probably built in 520 AD on the foundations of an older Christian church where St. Nicholas served as a bishop. Over time the church was flooded and full of silt. In 1862 it was restored by the Russian emperor Nicholas I, who added a tower and made other changes to his Byzantine architecture. The church is considered the third most important Byzantine structure in Anatolia. It is known for its remarkable mural frescoes and its architectural and religious significance. The northeastern attached portico contains the only example of the life cycle of St. Nicholas on ancient frescoes also in Turkey. • F E A T U R E D T A G | #igworldclub_archaeology • Selected by @_.vegvisir._ • M A I L | igwarchaeology@gmail.com • M E M B E R S | @igworldclub_thematic • F O L L O W U S | @igworldclub @igworldclub_nature @igworldclub_reflections @igworldclub_lakes @igworldclub_museum @igworldclub_crafts @igworldclub_cats • #thematic_080419 #igworldclub #archaeology #archeology #archeologia #arqueologia #archeologie #archaeologie #antiquearchaeology #archaeological #ancientbuilding #archaeologicalsite #archeologicalsite #ancientarchitecture #ancientruins #ancientcity #ancient #ancientworld #archaeologylovers #heritage #archeotravelers #visitturkey #turkey #turkey_photo #turkeylovers #ancienthistory #visitturkey #turkeyinstagram

The stone head sculptures of the Olmec civilization of the Gulf Coast of Mexico (1200 BCE - 400 BCE) are amongst the most mysterious and debated artefacts from the ancient world. The most agreed upon theory is that, because of their unique physical features and the difficulty and cost involved in their creation, they represent Olmec rulers. ⁣ ⁣ Seventeen heads have been discovered to date, 10 of which are from San Lorenzo and 4 from La Venta; two of the most important Olmec centres. The heads were each carved from a single basalt boulder which in some cases were transported 100 km or more to their final destination, presumably using huge balsa river rafts wherever possible and log rollers on land. The principal source of this heavy stone was Cerro Cintepec in the Tuxtla Mountains. The heads can be nearly 3 m high, 4.5 metres (9.8 feet, 14.7 feet) in circumference and average around 8 tons in weight. The heads were sculpted using hard hand-held stones and it is likely that they were originally painted using bright colours. The fact that these giant sculptures depict only the head may be explained by the widely held belief in Mesoamerican culture that it was the head alone which contained the emotions, experience, and soul of an individual. ⁣ ⁣ Facial details were drilled into the stone (using reeds and wet sand) so that prominent features such as the eyes, mouth, and nostrils have real depth. Some also have deliberately drilled dimples on the cheeks, chin, and lips. The heads all display unique facial features - often in a very naturalistic and expressive manner - so that they may be considered portraits of actual rulers. The scholar M.E. Miller identifies Colossal Head 5, for example, as a second-millenium BCE ruler of San Lorenzo. Although the physionomy of the sculptures has given rise to unfounded speculation of contact with civilizations from Africa, in fact, the physical features common to the heads are still seen today in residents of the modern Mexican cities of Tabasco and Veracruz. ⁣ ​⁣ ​Follow @thehumanoriginproject⁣ ​ @yoyisys
