Just as modern societies interpret ancient monuments and incorporate them in their political and cultural life, so people in the past often re-used their own monuments and places. The Past in the Past is unique in its thematic treatment of this topic. Highly illustrated with plates and photographs and including articles by internationally renowned specialists, this book will appeal to graduates, academics and anyone curious about the re-use of ancient monuments right up to the present day.
