Lapidarium: The Secret Lives of Stones

Product Information

Whitby jet, imbued with the spirit of the Anatolian mother goddess Cybele, inspires tales of male priests who cut off their own genitalia to identify as women, 1982 excavations at Cataractonium – a third-century Roman military base on the River Swale, climate change in the Lower Jurassic period, promiscuous women simulating states of virginity, and warding off snakes. The oldest Romanic fragments from the crypt of St. Vitus basilica are dated to the late 11th century. Romanic stove tiles decorated with reliefs of lion, gryphon, sphinx or emperor Nero come from basilika on Prague-Vyšehrad. Eight tombstones with engraved figures of abbots as well as various architectural fragments of 11th to 13th century originate from the Benedictine abbey Ostrov (Insula), founded in 999 on the river Vltava near Prague and destroyed in 15th century; nearly 900 fragments were gained from the archaeological excavations in 1932.

Arnold's catalogue of the stones, begun in 1992, records 252 stones including nine very large stones remaining around the Cathedral floor at that time, as well as smaller collections of tile, wood and assorted finds from 20th century excavations. This 1992 catalogue corresponds to Tipp-Ex markings on the stones and it is this numbering system which has been extended by this survey, although Tipp-Ex is no longer used! Here you will be greeted by 300 statues and sculptures gathered from royal gardens, palaces and buildings. Among the treasures is the equestrian statue from the square of the royal palace Amalienborg, which is rumoured to have cost more than the entire palace.

Muzeul Castelul Corvinilor, înființat în 1974 cuprindea inițial piese de lapidariu provenite de la lucrările de restaurare efectuate asupra monumentului la sfârșitul secolului al XIX-lea și începutul secolului al XX-lea. Actualmente muzeul deține și colecții de arheologie. [2]Identifiable within the series of sketches are 41, 42, 83, 105 and 108). This valuable record shows most items within the Lapidarium collection have suffered considerable damage and loss of material in the intervening two centuries. The heads of statue fragments 42 and 108 have been lost, and the uppermost portion of fragment 83. Not including broken pieces, eight fragments are no longer identifiable within the Lapidarium today. Stones within the collection evidently resulting from a similar context suggests the sketches may not have included all the items recovered during this discovery (for example, 29 and 86. Ilyen kőkönyvek Theofrasztosz (Kr. e. 371-287) lapidáriuma (Peri lithon), az Orfikus kőkönyv, a Damigeron című kompiláció (egy ókori csodatevő neve után), majd a mezopotámiai, amidai születésű Aetion, I. Justinianus császár (527-565) háziorvosának lapidáriuma a 16 könyvből álló orvosi művében (teljes latin fordítása Cornarius által Bázel, 1542), Epiphaniosz (315 k.-403) műve (Peri tón dódeka lithón) a zsidó főpapi mell-ékszer 12 drágakövének allegorizáló magyarázata (azok tulajdonságainak és erejének taglalásával), Pszellosz Mihály (1017/1018-1078 u. vagy 1096) lapidáriuma ( Peri lithon dünameon, a Scripta minorá-ban, kiadta Kurtz és Drexl, 1936-1941) és más művek. A középkor elején Sevillai Izidor (556 k.-636) Etimológiák című enciklopédiája ( Origines címmel is előfordul: Origines sive Etymologiae) szintén foglalkozik a drágakövekkel és bolygókkal, akárcsak az idősebb Plinius (Kr. u. 23/24-79), Naturalis Historiae (Kr. u. 77) című művének 35-37. fejezete. (A könyv utolsó, 37. fejezetét az ifjabb Plinius adta hozzá a befejezetlen műhöz.) Plinius tanítását a középkori lapidáriumok is népszerűsítették.
