Beskrivning
The church annexes of late antique Cyprus were bustling places of industry, producing olive oil, flour, bread, ceramics, and metal products. From its earliest centuries, the church was an economic player, participating in agricultural and artisanal production.More than a Church brings together architecture, ceramics, numismatics, landscape archaeology, and unpublished excavation material, alongside consideration of Cyprus’s dynamic and prosperous 4th–10th-century history. Keane offers a rich picture of the association between sacred buildings and agricultural and industrial facilities—comprehensively presenting, for the first time, the church’s economic role and impact in late antique Cyprus.

Recensioner i media

"[The volume] is nothing short of admirable, providing a reliable guide, assessment and interpretation of key sites that will prove invaluable to the scholarly community. [...] There is no doubt that Keane’s monograph covers a lot of ground, treading new paths and providing much food for thought. Her meticulous engagement with difficult archaeological evidence combined with her indefatigable efforts to delve into the slightest detail that might shed some light on the issues she is concerned with, constitute a lesson worth learning. This book is also a stepping stone for further research regarding social and economic changes on Cyprus itself but also in other regions of the Mediterranean." – Tassos Papacostas, in: Plekos, 27 (24 March 2025), p. 125-7.
