Herzfeld, Ernst (continued)
Archaeological history of Iran (1935)
In: The Schweich lectures, 1934
London: Oxford University Press, 1935, 112 p.
Abstract: Presents a seemless view of Iranian material culture from neolithic times to the end of the Sasanian period, making frequent forays into Islamic times en route to point out striking continuities. In the course of this enquiry he was able to identify numerous recurrent ideas, themes and motifs. This holistic approach elided chronological divisions and conversely highlighted the remarkable continuities in Iranian art.

Stuttgart: Franz Steiner Verlag, 1998, p. 147-161.
Abstract: This article is concerned with the question of the transmission and continuity of the Avesta, the sacred text of the Zoroastrians, in the Parthian period. Part 1 offers a summary of the literary sources and Part 2 a description of the research carried out on this topic up to the present. Part 3 discusses the question of the existence of a written Avesta in Arsacid times, Part 4 the evidence derived from Avestan and Pahlaavi texts for the way the tradition was handed down, and Part 5 the linguisstic and graphic evidence for the transmission of the Avesta. Finally, Part 6 deals briefly with the Avesta alphabet before summarizing the results in Part 7, the conclusion. [Author] Large bibliography.

Abstract: Mr. Holland seeks in this article to resolve the problem created by the discrepancy between the literary and numismatic evidence for the erection in the Forum of two triumphal arches in honor of Augustus and the archaeological evidence furnished mainly by the foundations of a single triple arch between the temple of Divus Julius and that of Castor, with references to the recovery of the Roman standards lost at Carrhae.
 
Hollis, A. S.
"Statius' Young Parthian King (Thebaid 8.286-93)" (1994)
Greece & Rome, 1994, vol. 41, no. 2, p. 205-212.
Abstract: The writer examines the identity of the young Parthian king mentioned by Statius in Thebaid 8.286-93. He explains that in this passage, Statius compares Thiodamas, son of Melampus, to a young Parthian king who succeeds to the throne after his father's death. Using the evidence of Parthian silver tetradrachms dating from the later 70s and the 80s A.D., the period in which Thebaid was written, he suggests that the young king may be identified as Pacorus II, the younger son of Volagases I.

Höschel, David (ed.)
Geographica Marciani Heracleotae, Scylacis Caryandensis, Artemidori Ephesii, Dicaearchi Messenii, Isidori Characeni. Omnia nunc primum, praeter Dicaearchi illa, ... edita. (1600)
Augsburg: 1600, 16+207 p.
Abstract: Printed in Greek letter throughout. In the original Greek, first edition of this collection of the works of the minor Greek geographers. The volume opens with a dedication to Johann Georg Herfurth von Hohenburg, councillor to the Duke of Bavaria. This is followed by letters to Höschel from Isaac Casaubon and Joseph Justus Scaliger respectively. After the texts proper follow the annotations by Höschel and the 'Schediasma' on Dicaearcus by Henri Estienne and others. The volume contains most of the surviving texts of Artemidorus of Ephesus (fl. around 100 B.C.). After studying in Alexandria, he travelled extensively and published the results of his investigations in a large work on general geography in eleven books. The original is lost. He attaches much importance to physical geography and to the indication of distances. This last feature was partly a reaction against astronomical geography, which he considers utopian. Dicaearchos of Messina (fl. in the second century) was a pupil of Aristotle and a friend of Theophrastus, to whom he dedicated the majority of his works. The fragments of his geographical treatises were first published in Geneva by Henri Estienne (1589). He estimates the length of the circumference of the earth at 300,000 stades. In measuring the height of mountains he possibly used a diopter. He also notes the influence of the sun upon the tides. Isidorus of Charax (fl. about the first century B.C.) wrote a 'Description of the World', of which only fragments survive. Of his 'Journey around Parthia', likewise only a fragment dealing with pearls and pearl-fishing survives. The text of his 'Parthian Stations' describes the itinerary of the caravan trail from Antioch to the borders of India. Marcianus of Heraclea (fl. c. A.D.400) wrote two geographical treatises, 'Periplus of the Outer Sea', in which he attempts a complete description of the coasts of the eastern and western oceans; and 'Periplus of the Inner Sea', which contains a description of the southern coasts of the Euxine from the Thracian Bosporus to the river Iris in Pontus. Only fragments of these works have survived. Scylax of Caryanda (fl. fifth century B.C.) wrote a sailor's handbook of places and distances around the coast of the Mediterranean and then along the Libyan coast as far as the Carthaginians traded (cf. A. Diller, The Tradition of the Minor Greek Geographers, Oxford, 1952, pp. 24, 51-52, no. Z25). Printed at the celebrated private humanist press, named after its address, "Ad Insigne Pinus" ("At the sign of the Pine Tree"). This press was set up by a group of Augsburg humanists, chief among whom was David Hoeschel (1556-1617), Librarian of the Bibliotheca Augustana, who had been the most famous pupil of Hieronymus Wolf. With the financial assistance of the wealthy member of the City Council, Marcus Welser (1558-1614), himself a scholar of renown, the press was active from 1594 to 1619, specialising in the production of original Greek and Latin texts, all based on unpublished manuscripts. The press's beautiful, clear and elegant Greek type has been identified with that of Robert Granjon: cf. the Fine Printing catalogue of the "Printing and the Mind of Man Exhibition," no.81, and Sandys II, 272. With inscription at the foot of title-page in the hand of the Italian historian Giuseppe Ripamonte (1573-1641) recording that the book was given to him by the Dutch scholar Erycius Puteanus (1574-1646), professor of eloquence in Milan.

"Coinage and military finance: the Imperial bronze coinage of the Augustan East" (1982)
Numismatic Chronicle, 1982, vol. 142, p. 1-20.
Abstract: Two large bronze coinages (CA and SC) struck in the Empire's eastern half under Augustus are examined. The evidence for their mints' location is delineated; a new classification and chronology are proposed. These coinages were struck to meet military expenditure during hostilities with Parthia: the strategic role of the province of Asia during the third decade BC and the preparations for the second eastern expedition mounted in 1 BC are illuminated.
