商品簡介
This well-illustrated handbook tells the story of the Byzantine city of Butrint on the Ionian coast of present-day Albania, just north of Greece, from 300-1200. The site of earlier Greek and Roman occupation, Butrint has yielded a wealth of remains from the subsequent Byzantine era. Hodges summarizes the archaeological findings thus far, telling the story of the town in an engaging narrative for the general reader. He provides a list of further reading, but the book is not indexed. Published in a side-by-side translation of Albanian and English, the work is distributed in North America by The David Brown Book Co. Annotation c2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
