This volume collects 37 papers presented at the VAST Euroconference held in Arezzo, Italy in November 2000. The main themes explored are 'virtual archaeology and scientific research', the 'virtual cultural lab', case studies, the expoitation of archaeological resources. The papers presented here represent an important contribution to the development of 'virtual archaeology', at least in terms of the circulation of ideas and projects among scholars and young researchers.

Selected papers from a conference of the International Council for Archaeozoology, held in London under the auspices of the Institute of Archaeology, University of London, April 1982.

This fully illustrated study brings together over 70 prints and drawings of mosaics from the collection of nearly 3,000 items formed by Richard Topham (1671-1730). Some are the only known records of mosaics that no longer survive, and many are published here for the first time. The book includes a detailed biographical chapter on Topham himself. The drawings, mostly by Francesco Bartoli (1670-1733) and Gaetano Piccini (1681-1736) showing mosaics displayed in Rome, are described and discussed in detail, comparing them with drawings in other collections and with the original mosaics where they survive. The small but important section relating to Roman Britain, including the Stonesfield and Woodchester mosaics, is thoroughly considered, as are the prints which contain some rare items. The concluding chapter includes an appraisal of how the drawings were presented, the artists and their sources, and an evaluation of the drawings as works of art and as archaeological records.

Spine title: Historical archaeology of n. Caria.

Based on a C.U.N.Y. Ph.D. thesis and concerned with the ways of ageing immature animals. Methods are discussed, tables of fusion and dental data are presented, and line drawings of juvenile morphology abound. The latter are designed to complement Elizabeth Schmid's illustrations of adult domestic mammals (Atlas of Animal Bones, 1972). A useful reference work, but extravagant in its use of space.
