“Spolia” is a term applied to earlier architectural elements re-used in new buil­dings. This practice was born in 3rd century and became very common in the times of Constantine. For a long time spolia were perceived as a sign of decline in late antique art. Nowadays interpretations of spolia alternate between the “pragmatic”, the “aesthetic” and the “ideological”. The aim of this article is to investigate these theories in context of changing tradition in ancient art, and try to see spolia as the reflection of the tension between “Past” and “Present” in the times of transforma­tion of the Roman world.

Nea Paphos was a vibrant city in Roman Cyprus. Much information about the history and the inhabitants of the urban centre came to light through extensive excavations, which started at the site in the 1960s. The Hellenistic and Roman period has been widely studied and examined, but our knowledge of late Roman Paphos still remains quite modest. The purpose of this paper is to provide a better understanding of the late Roman phases of occupation, especially of the squatters’ activities in Paphos, through the analysis of stone objects, mainly grinding and milling stones and other worked stone, which are associated with this period.

The article aims to present results of the analysis of stone artefacts (fragments of architectural decoration, sarcophagi, opus sectile) from the late antique basilica and adjacent medieval monastery of San Severo in Classe (Ravenna, Italy). The research is focused on the qualitative and quantitative study of stone artefacts with regards on signs of their reuse. A hypothesis of the application of late antique materials in medieval reconstructions of San Severo monastic complex is discussed on the basis of lithotype and provenance study of stone artefacts and the late antique marble trade in the Mediterranean.
