Elsewherein the Empire, the ottomans proclaimed their presence by adding minarets to churches converted to mosques, as in the case of Haghia Sophia in Istanbul, or the cities of Crete. A pencil-shaped top added to the Mamluk-period base of the Minaret of Jesus Ottomanized an Islamic monument such as the Great Mosque of Damascus. In another famous example, Suleyman Ottomanized the Dome of the Rock in Jerusalem by adding a ceramic tile revetment to its exterior walls and drum. The Two Holy Sanctuaries at Mecca and Medina were transformed through the addition of multiple pencil-shaped minarets, among other interventions.” - though at Aleppo “All the interventions on pre-existing Islamic structures focussed on their interiors,” not exteriors. 197-209 for The Ottomanization of Mamluk Motifs, such as shields, blazons and animal imagery. Campbell, Ian, The Paper Museum of Cassiano dal Pozzo: Ancient Roman topography and architecture, London: Royal Collection : Harvey Miller, 2004. I.19-36 on “The development of architectural drawing after the antique, before 1600”, noting that Manetti's account of B&D in Rome (19) “Although no Brunelleschi drawings survive and every aspect of the story can be doubted (invented by Manetti when he was writing his Life in the 1480s because by then it was what would have been expected of his hero), it is true to the spirit of the age.” - all three volumes useful because they are the most thorough examination of early drawings etc of ancient architecture, and demonstrate just how much has been lost since the 15th century.

Leroux [1906] I-II: Ch.Brosselard in 1857 s'occupait de rassembler divers objets mis au jour pendant les dix annees precedantes, mais depuis laisses epars dans l'insouciance d'une occupation commencante, et par là menaces d'une disparition rapide .. Bresselard s'efforcait d'obtenir des proprietaires le don des objets par eux exhumes dans leurs travaux de construction – then gives a list of materials which reached the museum thanks to the exertions of the military. III-IV Les ravages du vandalisme, au debut de l'occupation, ont ete a Tlemcen, comme dans tout l'Algerie, considerables. Bargès des 1846, Berbrugger en 1858, se plaignaient deja que les inscriptions latines a peine retrouvees disparussent de nouveau et pour toujours, dans les chaussees des routes et dans les parapets des ponts – and only two tombstones survive from the crowd around the Mosque of Sidi brahim quand, en 1847, commenca le depecage de la ville arabe dont les derniers mefaits s'accomplissent sous nos yeux. IV Les destructions de cette sorte ont coutume d'arracher des cris d'indignation aux archeologues du Nord de l'Afrique. personnellement, tout en les deplorant, je trouve qu'elles furest excusables; au reste elles sont bien dans la tradition des conquetes de violence.Il y a cinquante ans, ilk s'agissait de conbstruire vite, d'installer rapidement l'occupation francaise et par la de l'assurer; que cette oeuvre fievreuse ait ete peu favorable aux recherches pacifiques et reflechies de la science archeologique, c'est ce dont il ne faut pas trop se scandaliser.On n'avait guere alors le loisir de choisir ses materiaux. Tout ce qui offrait apparence de pierre taillee, se recommandait par son emploi facile pour etre incorpore aux constructions hatives des conquerants. Quelques lignes indechiffrables gravees dessus n'empechaient pas une stele funeraire d'etre un excellent moellon. But then goes on to complain pp.IV-V that when he took over in 1898 several important inscriptions, already catalogued, were no longer to be found. Gauckler, Paul, et al., Musées de Sousse, Paris, E. Leroux, 1902. I-II: The first museum created in 1877 a la suite de fouilles qui amenerent la decouverte, dans le camp de Sousse, de riches tombeaux puniques et romains et de belles mosaiques de la villa de Sorothus. All but the largest mosaic (triumph of Neptune, which went to the Bardo), furent confies a la garde des officiers du 4e Tirailleurs, pour orner la salle d'honneur du regiment ... au premier etage du long batiment de la Kasba ... les mosaiques furent deposees sur le sol ou appliquees contre les murs; lesw menus objets antiques furent exposes dans des vitrines fermant a clef. But this museum contained only three antique capitals, fragments of nine statues, and one sarcophagus. Though there is othermaterial in the Musee Municipal. III yet more mosaics found in 1896 by capitaine d'artillerie Dupont, sur l'emplacement du nouveau arsenal.

The remains of Ghumdan are a great mound like a mountain, much of what is around it consisting of the dwellings of the San'anis” - and the authors comment “that part of San'a does form an eminence which is known to contain the debris of ancient times, but until it can be excavated it would be premature to say more about it.” 45-6 for description of construction of al-Qalis church (now just a depression inth ground) by al-Azraqi: “[courses of well-laid regular stones] he inserted (a course of) triangular stones like a camel's hump, entering into each other, of green, red, white, yellow and black stone ... then he inserted a frieze of alabaster/marble ... then over the marble he inserted (a course of) shining black stone of the stone of Nuqum,the mountain of San'a, overlooking it. After this he placed shining yellow stone, then over that shining white stone ... iwan ... decorated with tree and shrub (motives) ... crosses in mosaic” - but the columns were wood. Al-Azraqi also describes the demolition under the governor appointed by Abu Ja'far al-Mansur (ruled 753-4/774-5). 47 Tabari quotes an account that the builder of the church sent to the Byz Emperor for help, who “assisted him with artisans, mosaic and marble. There is nothing inherently improbable about this, although it is reminiscent of the Byzxantine aid contributed to the Umayyad Mosque of Damascus.” Albu Salih the Armenian (writing first decade 13thC) says Abramah paved the church with “coloured marbles, set up pillars of marble in it ... plated its doors with gold and silver plates.” 323-50 for the Great Mosque, including photos of pre-Islamic, islamic and Christian columns 108-121 for Western Accounts of San'a 1510-1962; Snouck Hurgronje, C., Mekka, 2 vols The Hague 1888 and 1889: I.2ff for the eaarly mosque, and I.13ff for the 1572-7 rebuild;NB book is about the city, and only incidentally about the mosque; Wulzinger, Karl, & Watzinger, Carl, Damaskus: die islamische Stadt, Berlin & Leipzig 1924: 1-45 for the building histoiry of Damascus, including a chronologicallisting of structures; then a topographical catalogue of buildings, with plenty of plans, and done where possible by roads. 143-65 for the Umayyad Mosque, and 166-87 for the fortress; - I've taken some photos of the plates and bits of the text; Canto Y de Gregorio, A.M., Merida y la arqueologia ilustrada.

[cf. details on fig.1] An important road infrastructure was also plannned.” 8 “the palace, but not the city, relied on a permanent water supply, which reached all its buildings ... the Aqua Augusta, constructed in the first century C.E. to supply classical Corduba ... ran through the central part of the palace at a depth of several metres” - so to supply the upper levels a spur was built (Fig.1) – and over 1800m metres of underground channels supply the sanitary infrastructure (cf. 10 & fig.3). 53-79 Anderson, Glaire, “Villa (munya) architecture in Umayyad Cordoba: preliminary considerations.” Remains of these villas (pottery, fragments of architectural ornament) are west of the city, as is Madinat: cf. fig.1; several sites overviewed, and cf. particularly al-Rummaniyya (63-9), with interesting architectural fragments, with animals as well as vegetal ornament; 69-75 for “The role of water”, including the basin now in Cordoba museum, which is from al-Rummaniyya; 83-98 Rosser-Owen, Miriam, “Poems in stone: the iconography of Amirid poetry, and its 'petrification' on Amirid marbles,” 85 “I will focus here on an important group of carved marble objects made under Amirid patronage, as a case-study for how poetic imagery can elucidate the meanings of artistic iconography” - group of 30 objects, including the three monumental fountain basins (now Madrid, Marrakech, and Granada), from which she concludes (97) that “the Amirids used these marble basins as the vehicles to project their 'public image' as fulfilling the virtues of the ideal ruler. The messages on these objects would have been displayed in private contexts within the Amirid palace gardens, where the regents relaxed in poetic sourees with the members of the Cordoban elite who comprised their court.” 90: “Though these marbles are often referred to as 'ablution basins,' their figural decoration precludes a religious function.” Jacobi, Dominique, ed., Pascal Coste, toutes les Égypte, Marseille: Parenthèses : Bibliothèque municipale de Marseille, 1998. - i.e. graphical work of Coste left to the library in Marseille. 70-96 Jasmin, Claude, Le premier ingenieur de l'Egypte contemporaine – i.e. Coste's job; and no doubt what he built or projected (powder factory on Rhoda; fort at Aboukir; saltpetre factory near Memphis) was at the expense of the ancient monuments; 97-130 Volait, Mercedes, Les monuments de l'architecture arabe. 131-62 Jasmin,Denise, Les dessins d'architecture civile; Parker, Richard Bordeaux, A practical guide to Islamic monuments in Morocco, Charlottesville, Va.

It is, therefore, not without significance, considering that this battle was the second major achievement after the victory of the Mamluks against the Mongols; these victories earned the Mamluks their uncontestable legitimacy ... It is interesting that Maqrizi praised the craftsmanship and decoration of this portal as among the most wonderful works ever done by a human being. Considering the truly magnificent portals that existed at that time in Cairo, such as those of the mosques of Sultan Hasan, Bashtak and al-Mu'ayyad, or the portal of Qawsun's palace, one wonders if this admiration was due to its sumbolic significvance or its exotic character.” 175 on al-Nasir in the Citadel, remodelling his mosque in 1335, “Al-Dawadari wrote that the interior of the sanctuary was demolished and rebuilt with higher arcades and a higher dome. In the course of these works, the sultan brought huge columns from Ashmunayn in Upper Egypt. This was a colossal undertaking, for which the governors of the Upper Egyptian provinces had to recruit a large number of people to secure their transport on the Nile. In Cairo and Fustat “thousands” of people were also recruited to bring the columns to the Citadel. / The columns carried from Upper Egypt were not only for the mosque but for the Great Iwan as well, according to Maqrizi's text.

The basilica at the Letoon was abandoned at the same time and never rebuilt ... Xanthos was not simply damaged; it ceased to exist as a classical city. Instead, it became a fortress, with heavy walls erected on the Lycian acropolis from the ruins of ancient buildings, and with an outwork composed of part ofbthe adjacent theater, which was partially demolished for the purpose. The style of the walls would accord with a date in the seventh century. / Other cities in the immediate region suffered a similar fate.Patara, which had flourished in Late Antiquity, received a new circuit of walls based on its theater and encompassing a smallpart of the site, apparently during the Dark Ages, a period defined here as the seventh through the mid-ninth centuries. Tlos and Pinara, high in the Xanthos Valley, similarly contracted, becoming fortresses. /In all these cases, there is not merely a change in fashion in which smaller circuits of walls were felt necessary, for the walls usually override and destroy the very buildings which characterized the ancient city, and the areas left outside the circuits, when evidence is available, bear no trace of Dark Age occupation. The medieval cities, in other words, were fundamentally different from their ancient counterparts. /The situation at Telmessos was similar. New walls embrace a convenient hill above the harbour, and the carefully arranged spoils in their facing suggest the Dark Ages ... the city briefly assumed the name Anastasiopolis in the eighth century, apparently in honour of Anastasius II (713-15), who was especially concerned with fortification and coastal defence during his brief reign. Construction of the fortress might have provided the occasion for assuming the new name.” 22 still Foss: “Limyra received a new circuit of walls around its main church below the acropolis ... Nearby Phoinix [Finike] was also strengthened by new walls of spoils, essential defences for a port which was a goal of an attach in 715 ... Phaselis acquired a new set fortifications as well to protect its harbour and the hill above it, but omitting most of the ancient city ... Oenoanda preserves a circuit of walls which exclude many of its classical monuments and use many spoils; but they still include a sizable area,more than half the ancient city, suggesting that this hilltop town was relatively prosperous... / The remains seem unambiguously to indicate a drastic decline of population. It is plain that the coasthad fewer inhabitants in the eighth century than in the sixth ... / The recovery of the ninth century, on the other hand, did produce one of the grandest monuments of the whole country, the church at Dereağzi. Its sophisticated architecture and rich decoration, however, were not the product of local resources, but of the wealth of the capital and a founder who could import building materials from afar.” 23 still Foss: “The whole country experienced some growth in the age of peace of the eleventh century. The basilica at Xanthos rose from its ruins, when its former baptistery was transformed into a church and adorned with a marble iconostasis and paintings, and at Myra both church and acropolis were restored ... / The Turkish invasions of the late eleventh century provoked another hiatus in development, but recovery came under the Comneni who had an interest in the sea routes to the East which was shared by the Italian maritime states. Since the Empire needed to defend its interests in the region, fortresses were rebuilt or expanded at Telmessos, Xanthos, Patara,Myra, Limyra, and elswehere, and signs of life are visible for the first time since Antiquity in places like Lebissos where the cathedral was rebuilt and other parts were occupied.” 51 at the fort, “the stone used by the Byzantines, a local limestone that again was quarried at or near the fort...” 65-85 for materials reused in the fort, of 5/6thC and 9/10thC.
