Byllis: Présentation Du Site, Fortifications, Basiliques A, C Et D [French]

De 1999 2012, une quipe franco-albanaise a r uni, sous l' gide du minist re fran ais des Affaires trang res, de l' cole fran aise d'Ath nes et de l'Institut arch ologique de Tirana, des sp cialistes de l' poque protobyzantine autour de Sk nder Mu aj, qui avait men les fouilles arch ologiques sur la ville tardo-antique de Byllis dans les ann es 1980. Ce premier volume sur le site se propose d' tudier une partie des structures de l'Antiquit tardive mises au jour dans cette cit piscopale de l'int rieur de l' pire nouvelle: le mur d'enceinte de la ville remani sous le r gne de l'empereur Justinien, et trois parmi cinq glises pal ochr tiennes connues, les basiliques A, C et D. Outre le rempart et l'architecture de ces difices de culte, la sculpture, les am nagements et le mobilier liturgique, la d coration des sols et les objets recueillis, offrent une richesse et une vari t exceptionnelles, qui font de cet ensemble encore m connu un jalon urbain essentiel du Sud-Ouest des Balkans.

From 1999 to 2012, a Franco-Albanian team was brought together, under the aegis of the French Ministery of Foreign Affairs, the French School at Athens and the Archaeological Institute of Tirana. They were specialists of the Protobyzantine period around Sk nder Mu aj, who had carried out archaeological excavations at the late-antique city of Byllis in the 1980s. The first volume on the site presents a study of part of the structures of Late Antiquity unearthed in this episcopal city in the interior of Epirus Nova: the city wall, altered during the reign of Emperor Justinian, and three of the five known early Christian churches, basilicas A, C and D. Besides the rampart and the architecture of these cult buildings, the sculpture, layouts, liturgical furniture, decoration of the floors and the collected objects offer an exceptionally rich and varied assemblage, still overlooked, which is an essential urban landmark in the southwest of the Balkans.
