The Extramural Sanctuary of Demeter and Persephone at Cyrene, Libya, Final Reports, Volume V: The Site's Architecture, Its First Six Hundred Years of Development (University Museum Monograph)
University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, 1993. Hardcover. New oversized hardcover with cloth over boards. Text is clean and free of marks and underlining. Includes appendices, index, figures, photo plates, and fold out maps. xxvi, 213 pp. This volume focuses on the architectural development of the sanctuary from its foundation in the late seventh century B.C. to the end of the pre-Imperial Roman phase (31 B.C.). The main periods of sanctuary architecture treated in the volume took shape in the shadow of major historical events of Cyrene, from its colonial foundation and through its rapid expansion under the Battiad monarchs, and its eventual struggle with Persian-occupied Egypt. This is followed by Cyrene's tumultuous and as yet poorly understood fifth century, and its loss of independence under the Ptolemies.
