Barrie(1996) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Pella Hinterland Survey 1994: Preliminary Report(Maney, 1996) Watson, P.; O'Hea, M.The initial season of a three-season intensive survey of the area around Pella in Jordan was conducted in the autumn of 1994, concentrating on the north-east sector. In the 12 km² area covered, 192 sites of a wide range of periods were identified, varying in size and type from single cisterns to multi-period tells. Notable were the collection of (probably) Bronze Age built-tomb fields, fortified structures of the Hellenistic and Roman periods, the evidence for Roman-Byzantine agricultural activities, and the general patterns of settlement existing within the proximity of a major urban site. Soundings were made at one of the more elaborate Byzantine farmstead sites.Item Metadata only Nonverbal communication in early Christian hagiography(1997) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Esoteric psychology and the psychology of motivation(1997) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Shame in Ovid's metamorphoses(1997) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Fear of sex in Nonnus' *Dionysiaca*(1998) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Rulers and shame: The case of Tiberius Caesar and the Senate(1998) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only The Wadi Faynan Project: the South Cemetery excavation, Jordan, 1996: A preliminary report(Informa UK Limited, 1998) Findlater, G.; El-Najjar, M.; Al-Shiyab, A.H.; O'Hea, M.; Easthaugh, E.The excavation of a large cemetery site known as the South Cemetery, close to the large settlement of Khirbat Faynan, was undertaken as a joint project between the British Institute at Amman for Archaeology and History, and the Department of Anthropology, Institute of Archaeology and Anthropology, Yarmouk University as part of the Wadi Faynan Project. In response to the continued looting of the site, six weeks of excavation were carried out. These excavations confirmed the large scale and nature of the cemetery and dated the main phase of its use to the Late Roman to Early Byzantine period. Preliminary pathological analysis of the sample suggests a fairly healthy population.Item Metadata only Chaos theory in Nonnus' Dionysiaca(Dept. of Classics, University of Natal, 1999) Newbold, R.Chaos theory, better known as hidden-order or dynamical systems theory, is a new way to think about order that can illuminate fragmentation and nonlinearity in literature and other fields. Nonnus' Dionysiaca is held together by the deeply encoded structures of the spiral, dance, serpent and web, and by the impulse for self-organisation and self-generation, as it explores the relationship between order and disorder.Item Metadata only A unique bronze coin of ancient Siphnos [with plates 1a, 1b, 1c,1d] 1(Society for Firearm Studies, 2000) Ashton, Norman George; First International Sifnean Symposium (1998 : Athens); Pro VC (Development) OfficeItem Metadata only Breasts and milk in Nonnus' Dionysiaca(Classical Assoc Atlantic State, 2000) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Make-up, mirrors, and men: Some early Byzantine glass from Syro-Palestine(Association Internationale Pour L'histoire du Verre, 2000) O'Hea, M.Item Metadata only Non-verbal communication in Suetonius and the Histori Augusta: power, posture and proxemics(Classical Association of South Africa, 2000) Newbold, R.Item Metadata only Theophrastus against the Presocratics and Plato : peripatetic dialectic in the De sensibus(Brill, 2000) Baltussen, J.This study offers a new and stimulating interpretation of Theophrastus' De sensibus, a treatise unique in content and method, as it reports and criticizes the theories of sense perception of the Presocratics and Plato. Most of the material on the Presocratics is found nowhere else, which explains why many passages can be found scattered over the Fragmente der Vorsokratiker. As an antidote to this fragmented approach the Presocratics are here studied in context, a text informed by a distinctly Peripatetic perspective. The analysis of the reports and (long neglected) criticisms of Plato (ch.4) and the Presocratics (ch.5) offers new insights into Theophrastus' exegetical procedure by succesfully using Peripatetic dialectic as a heuristic tool. The Epilogue outlines some implications for the role of the treatise in the doxographical tradition.Item Metadata only The archaeology of somewhere-else: a brief survey of Classical and Near Eastern archaeology in Australia(Australian Archaeological Association Inc., 2000) O'Hea, M.Item Open Access Glass from the 1992-1993 Excavations(American Center of Oriental Research, 2001) O'Hea, M.Item Open Access Some problems in early Islamic glassware(AIHV, 2001) O'Hea, M.; Association Internationale pour I'Histoire du Verre.
