| Abstract:
Birch-bark of the asiatic-indian 'Betula Bhojpattr' or 'Betula Utilis' used as writing-material in pre-islamic Central Asia. A little regarded commodity on the ancient Silk Routes Summary Rarely noticed in a more comprehensive form, birch-bark of the asiatic-indian 'Betula Bhojpattr' or 'Betula Utilis' was used on the Silk Roads on Central Asia in pre-islamic times as writing-material in a much greater quantity than earlier thought by document-specialists; this especially in a geographical region between Merw (Margiana), Bamiyan/ Afghanistan and in the Tarim Basin of Xinjiang/ PR China especially for early buddhist texts, i.e. translations. Until now, the fact that documents were written on birch-bark was more or less seen as a certain curiosity. This article wants to show that birch-bark played a much more important role as writing-material than noticed until today. Birch-bark, as hopefully can be shown, was maybe also a commercial article, even if it was more or less a 'niche'-product which later vanished the markets on the Silk Roads because Chinese paper came to be used. The author tries to list up all known birch-bark-document fi nds until today known and tries to sum up the known facts about this writing-material so very important for early Buddhist texts on the Silk Roads of pre-islamic Central Asia. | ||

| Fairborn, Ohio: Parthia.com Web Site, 2007 | ||
| Abstract:
Vadim Nikitin's English translation of Koshelenko's "Genealogiya Pervykh Arshakidov (eshche raz o nisiyskom ostrake no. 1760)". The article contains an analysis of the data on the genealogy of the first Arsacids from the ostrakon No. 1760 of the Nisian Archive. On comparing these data with those from the written sources (Justian and Arrian), the author is able to modify the genealogy established by his predecessors. A comparison of the data from early Parthian history from works by Justin and Arrian enables the author to elucidate a number of trends which existed in the official ideology of Parthia and substantiated the right of descendants of Tiridates to the Parthian throne.

| Abstract: Nous sommes en l'an 373. Recruté comme adjuteur à la Préfecture urbaine de Rome, Festus doit faire face à une série de crimes perpétrés selon un même rite : globes oculaires évidés, langue coupée, qui semblent impliquer des médecins publics de la ville de Rome et notamment un proche qu'il estime profondément. Cette enquête s'avère riche en rebondissements et lourde en révélations pour notre héros qui va s'apercevoir que même son entourage familial n'est pas complètement "blanc".

| In: Oriens et Occidens. Studien zu antiken Kulturkontakten und ihrem Nachleben, Bd. 17 | ||

| Abstract: Les Parthes, peuple iranien d’origine nomade qui domina la Mésopotamie et l’Iran du milieu du second siècle av. J.-C. jusqu’en 225 ap. J.-C., furent les grands rivaux des Romains: ceux-ci tentèrent à plusieurs reprises de les envahir et de se substituer à eux en Orient, sans jamais y parvenir. Ce livre analyse l’abondante production de textes et d’images évoquant les Parthes qui, dans tout le monde gréco-romain et jusqu’à la fin du Haut-Empire, accompagna la politique romaine, afin de répondre à deux questions principales : dans quelle mesure l’image des Parthes permet-elle de mieux comprendre les buts poursuivis par les Romains au-delà de l’Euphrate, et quelle somme de connaissances Grecs et Romains amassèrent-ils à propos de ce peuple qui leur évoquait à la fois les Scythes et les Perses, déjà décrits de longue date par les Grecs ?

| Abstract: L’histoire des fouilles archéologiques dans la citadelle royale de l’Ancienne Nisa est désormais longue et complexe. Notre connaissance de l’architecture et de l’art des Parthes a tiré un bénéfice fondamental des recherches menées dans l’antique Mithridatkert (ou Mihrdarkirt), l'un des premiers centres monumentaux des Arsacides. À partir des années trente tout d’abord, grâce aux sondages ponctuels de Maroushenko, puis grâce à la mission soviétique de la YuTAKE (1946-1967) et enfin, dans le dernier quart du XXe siècle, grâce aux missions conjointes turkmènes, russes et italiennes.

| Abstract: "Nisa des Parthes" compte parmi les sites historiques les plus extraordinaires. Le récit de son histoire peut débuter de la même manière que la Bible : "Au début était le verbe". Il y a environ 2000 ans, Isidore, un savant grec originaire de la ville de Charax située sur le cours inférieur de l'Euphrate, a réalisé une brève description des routes commerciales et guerrières les plus importantes sur le territoire de l'empire parthe. Outre cette cartographie, il a également signalé plusieurs établissements et sites notables sur cet itinéraire. Concernant la ville de Nisa-Nisaya, qui est située aux confins du territoire parthe, il écrit "ici, se trouvent les tombeaux des rois parthes". il s'agit pratiquement du seul commentaire sur cette ville qui se soit conservé. Mais les quelques annotations existantes on été suffisantes pour susciter le vit intérêt de plusieurs générations d'orientalistes et pour les inciter à retrouver cette ville et ces tombeaux.

| London: I.B. Tauris, 2008 | ||
| Abstract: Decline and Fall of the Sasanian Empire has already been praised as one of the most intellectually exciting books about ancient Persia to have been published for years. It proposes a convincing contemporary answer answer to an ages-old mystery and conundrum: why, in the seventh century CE, did the seemingly powerful and secure Sasanian empire of Persia succumb so quickly and disastrously to the all-conquering Arab armies of Islam? Offering an impressive appraisal of the Sasanians' nemesis at the hands of the Arab forces which scythed all before them, the author suggests a bold solution to the enigma. On the face of it, the collapse of the Sasanians--given their strength and imperial power in the earlier part of the century--looks startling and inexplicable. But Professor Pourshariati explains their fall in terms of an earlier corrosion and decline, and as a result of their own internal weaknesses. The decentralized dynastic system of the Sasanian empire, whose backbone was a Sasanian-Parthian alliance, contained the seeds of its own destruction. This confederacy soon became unstable, and its degeneration sealed the fate of a doomed dynasty. [Publisher] | ||

| Catalogue of Elymaean Coinage, ca. 147 B.C.-A.D. 228 (2007) | ||
| Lancaster, PA: Classical Numismatic Group, 2007, 167 p. | ||
| Abstract:
Includes in-text illustrations, charts, and tables. $75 (GR320) "The first comprehensive catalog of the Elymaean series since the J. de Morgan’s 1930 publication by, this book draws upon the extensive amount of evidence that has surfaced since then and synthesizes the wealth of recent scholarship on this important, yet little-known kingdom that flourished in the region comprising southern Iraq and western Iran from the late 2nd century BC to the early 3rd century AD. Divided into two parts, the first gives an overview of the history of Elymais and its coinage. A brief introduction describes the geographic, geopolitical, and cultural background of the region, and sets the stage for the following discussion of the three dynasties that ruled that kingdom. Using de Morgan as a point of departure, the author meticulously analyzes the various, and often conflicting, studies on Elymaean coinage that have been written over the last half-century, and draws conclusions based on the most recent evidence. As the kingdom's history and coinage are closely tied to its Seleucid and Parthian neighbors, the author has particularly benefited from the recent scholarship on these empires by D. Sellwood, G.R.F. Assar, A. Houghton, and C. Lorber. The first part concludes with a technical description of the coinage system, detailing its mints, iconographic types, and metrology. "The catalogue of coins comprises the second part and traces the coinage of the three Elymaean dynasties: the Early Kamnaskirids, the Later Kamnaskirids, and the Arsacids. Each ruler's coinage is presented by general type, followed their respective subtypes, all of which are accompanied by illustrations for ease-of-use. As much of the later coinage is found in relatively poor condition, often numerous illustrations of each subtype are included, sometimes supplemented by the author’s own meticulous line drawings. "A particular strength of the book is the features that were included to assist researchers and collectors. One such aid is the "Easy Finder" at the end of Part One, which provides a schematic chart for quick identification of a coin's general type. In addition, Appendix 1 provides a concordance chart for each type to the previous standard works that are often used in earlier studies and catalogs, while Appendix 2 provides the sources for all of the illustrations in the catalog, including each coin's weight, die axis, and size, as well as any relevant die links. Finally, a bibliography of the works cited lists the relevant historical and numismatic works that form the basis of the study. "This well-researched book will be the new standard reference for the coinage of Elymais, and will prove beneficial not only to numismatists and collectors, but those interested in the history of this fascinating kingdom."
