Building Materials and Building Techniques at Sagalassos (Studies in Eastern Mediterranean Archaeology)

By Lieven Loots

The book aims at a better understanding of the economy of the building industry at Sagalassos through the study of the provenance, extraction and preparation of the building materials (stone, brick, mortar, glass) and the techniques used in building with these materials. Chronological and spatial tendencies at Sagalassos are compared with those at other sites in Asia Minor and the eastern Mediterranean to understand local patterns and to see how these may differ regionally.
