Book Description
The centre of this book is a catalogue of all known Bronze Age metalwork found in the province of East Flanders (Belgium). Each catalogue entry contains a critical assessment the object's authenticity, a short description, the story of its discovery and an extensive bibliography. `Reliability classes' are used to assess the authenticity of context, especially important when wet vs dry depositions have been interpreted so differently. Finally, the author attempts to formulate an explanatory model for deposition, based particularly on the East Flanders material.

Book Description
The commodification of Islamic antiques intensified in the late Ottoman Empire, an age of domestic reform and increased European interference following the Tanzimat (reorganisation) of 1839. Mercedes Volait examines the social life of typical objects moving from Cairo and Damascus to Paris, London, and beyond, uncovers the range of agencies and subjectivities involved in the trade of architectural salvage and historic handicraft, and traces impacts on private interiors, through creative reuse and Revival design, in Egypt, Europe and America. By devoting attention to both local and global engagements with Middle Eastern tangible heritage, the present volume invites to look anew at Orientalism in art and interior design, the canon of Islamic architecture and the translocation of historic works of art.
