Based on an unpublished lead seal, the paper proposes a somehow earlier date than the middle of the eighth century accepted so far. This date seems to accord with a number of reforms undertaken during the reign of Leon III (717-741) and the early reign of Konstantinos V (741-775) which effectively founded the institution of the themata. Moreover, building upon a Catalogue of 19 officials from the eighth century ( of which six were unknown so far ), this study analyses the early history and the administrative structure of the thema of the Boukellarioi. The Catalogue includes the pertaining sigillogr aphical evidence (in total 22 seals are being published - plus three in the Appendix -, of which 15 had not been properly published) and includes a historical and/or sigillogr aphical commentary.</div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="f15 panel-box rounded shadow-none border"> <h4 class="mt-0 heading-count">Authors</h4> <div class="mb-3"> <article-authors tid="28022287" list="[{"name":"Christos Malatras","sequence":1}]" verified="[]" page="work" ></article-authors> </div> <div class="alert alert-warning mb-0"> <h5 class="mt-0 bg-warning text-dark px-3 rounded d-inline-block"> I am an author on this paper </h5> <div class="font-weight-bold f13"> Click your name to claim this paper and add it to your profile. </div> </div> </div> <div class="f15 panel-box rounded shadow-none border"> <h4 class="mt-0 heading-count">Reviews</h4> <div class="d-flex flex-wrap flex-md-nowrap"> <div class="flex-grow-1"> <h4 class="f16"> Primary Rating <a href="javascript:;" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="The primary rating indicates the level of overall quality for the paper."> <i class="ivu-icon ivu-icon-md-help-circle f18 ml-2"></i> </a> </h4> <div class="d-flex flex-wrap flex-md-nowrap align-items-center alert mb-0"> <div class="d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center"> <Rate disabled allow-half value="3.8" style="font-size: 28px;"></Rate> <strong class="f20 m-3" style="color: #f5a623;">3.8</strong> </div> <div class="text-muted mx-4"> Not enough ratings </div> </div> <h4 class="f16"> Secondary Ratings <a href="javascript:;" data-toggle="tooltip" data-placement="right" title="Secondary ratings independently reflect strengths or weaknesses of the paper."> <i class="ivu-icon ivu-icon-md-help-circle f18 ml-2"></i> </a> </h4> <div class="d-flex flex-wrap flex-md-nowrap alert"> <div class="d-flex flex-shrink-0 align-items-center mr-3"> <h5 class="my-0">Novelty</h5> <strong class="mx-4">-</strong> </div> <div class="d-flex flex-shrink-0 align-items-center mr-3"> <h5 class="my-0">Significance</h5> <strong class="mx-4">-</strong> </div> <div class="d-flex flex-shrink-0 align-items-center mr-3"> <h5 class="my-0">Scientific rigor</h5> <strong class="mx-4">-</strong> </div> </div> </div> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <div class="border bg-light py-2 px-4"> <h5 class="mb-1">Rate this paper</h5> <Rate class="f24" @on-change="function(value){ location.href='https://www.peeref.com/works/28022287/comments?rating='+value }"></Rate> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div id="collection" class="f15 panel-box rounded shadow-none border"> <h4 class="mt-0 heading-count">Recommended</h4> <div class="my-3"> <ul class="nav nav-pills border-bottom pb-3" style="list-style: none; padding-left: 0;"> <li class="active"> <a href="#articles_from_related" data-toggle="tab" class="mx-0 f15"> <strong>Related</strong> </a> </li> <li class=""> <a href="#articles_from_authors" data-toggle="tab" class="mx-0 f15"> <strong>From Same Authors</strong> </a> </li> <li class=""> <a href="#articles_from_journal" data-toggle="tab" class="mx-0 f15"> <strong>From Same Journal</strong> </a> </li> </ul> <div class="tab-content"> <div id="articles_from_related" class="tab-pane active"> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Multidisciplinary Sciences </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/82120380" class="text-dark hover-underline">Shrouded in history: Unveiling the ways of life of an early Muslim population in Santarém, Portugal (8th-10th century AD)</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Rebecca Anne MacRoberts, Marco Liberato, Xavier Roca-Rada, Maria Joao Valente, Claudia Relvado, Teresa Matos Fernandes, Cristina Barrocas Dias, Bastien Llamas, Herminia Vasconcelos Vilar, Bernd R.

By analyzing the texts using the method of historical contextualization, it is found that monoculture has been subject to rich debates in history, not just as a rationalist technology, but also as an example of non-rational forestry failing to deliver sustainable yields. Moreover, historical forestry science representatives sometimes understood rational forest management as a pursuit of complexity, site-specific solutions, and bottom-up approaches. Therefore, our understanding of forest use and society-environment relations can benefit from more historical contextualization. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">AMBIO</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/82451262/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Chemistry, Analytical </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/24766921" class="text-dark hover-underline">Characterization of liquor remains in Beibaie site, central China during the 8th century BCE</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Jingpu Li, Jiyun Yang, Jun Cao, Puheng Nan, Jie Gao, Danshu Shi, Bin Han, Yimin Yang</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="flex-shrink-0 d-none d-sm-block"> <img src="https://peeref-open.s3.amazonaws.com/storage/images/covers/5871.jpg" alt="" class="border mr-3" width="100"> </div> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> The study of liquid residues in archaeological contexts has been rarely reported, but it is important for understanding the history of liquor making.

By analyzing a co-occurrence network of 909 titles, it distinguishes different dimensions of interdisciplinarity, including connections between philosophy and other disciplines, and within philosophy itself. The emerging disciplines of historiography and philology play a significant role. Structurally, the early modern knowledge system is not simply a tree, but has both tree-like and lattice-like features. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">SYNTHESE</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/82521849/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> History </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/36263475" class="text-dark hover-underline">The Sound of Politics in Early Nineteenth-Century Ireland</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Katie Barclay</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> This article examines how people in late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Ireland identified music as political and the role of music in political life during that period. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">JOURNAL OF BRITISH STUDIES</span> (2021) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/36263475/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Geosciences, Multidisciplinary </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/81761704" class="text-dark hover-underline">Why were disasters portrayed in postcards?: Disaster media in the early 20th century☆</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Larissa Casteliani Marinho Falcao, Norio Maki, Masaru Tanaka</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="flex-shrink-0 d-none d-sm-block"> <img src="https://peeref-open.s3.amazonaws.com/storage/images/covers/10025.jpg" alt="" class="border mr-3" width="100"> </div> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> This article examines postcards depicting disasters in the early 20th century. Postcards were an affordable means of communication even for the poorest. Some disasters caused many deaths, but received little journalism coverage, while others were depicted on numerous postcards. Using a historical methodology, the article analyses the context of ten global disasters and finds that the location of the disaster was the main factor determining whether postcards were produced. If the disaster occurred in a region where stakeholders had interests, the opportunity to produce postcards was not wasted. Remote regions, regardless of the death toll, were less likely to be depicted, especially if the population was marginalised. The potential of postcards was consciously utilised or disregarded. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF DISASTER RISK REDUCTION</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/81761704/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Engineering, Geological </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/27636344" class="text-dark hover-underline">8th Ishihara lecture: Holistic evaluation of liquefaction response</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Misko Cubrinovski, Nikolaos Ntritsos</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="flex-shrink-0 d-none d-sm-block"> <img src="https://peeref-open.s3.amazonaws.com/storage/images/covers/7548.jpg" alt="" class="border mr-3" width="100"> </div> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> Soil liquefaction during earthquakes involves rapid development of excess pore water pressures, reduction in soil stiffness and strength, and diffusion of excess pore water pressures through water flow. The severity of liquefaction and overall system response of liquefying deposits is significantly influenced by cross-layer interactions. A framework for a holistic evaluation of the liquefaction response is presented, which considers element response, cross-layer interactions, and intensity of the input motion. Results from simplified analyses show significant anomalies compared to nonlinear dynamic analyses, highlighting the need to incorporate interaction mechanisms and system response effects in simplified liquefaction evaluation procedures. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">SOIL DYNAMICS AND EARTHQUAKE ENGINEERING</span> (2023) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/27636344/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Nursing </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/28619146" class="text-dark hover-underline">Nursing and eugenics in the early 20th century United States</a> </h4> <p class="text-ellipsis-2">Karin Skeen, Barbra Mann Wall</p> <div class="d-flex mb-3"> <div class="flex-shrink-0 d-none d-sm-block"> <img src="https://peeref-open.s3.amazonaws.com/storage/images/covers/6301.jpg" alt="" class="border mr-3" width="100"> </div> <div class="p-3 rounded" style="background-color: #e8f3ff;"> <strong>Summary:</strong> This study aims to understand how nurses in the early 20th century thought about and interacted with eugenics.

Despite their likely manufacture in Constantinople, their unique shape and decoration suggest a non-Roman origin. A similar silver object is identified as an example of this type of drinking bowl. The barbarian images on the bowls are identified as Avar, and are linked to the 626 Avar-Persian siege of Constantinople. By combining these vessels with other sources, the article sheds light on Byzantine cultural construction of the Avar and historical events in 7th-century Constantinople, demonstrating that analysis of material culture can provide new insights into Byzantine concepts of outsider ethnicities and collective identity. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2024) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/83925523/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079429" class="text-dark hover-underline">The Hermoglyphos Pason and the enigma of a stone: Arist.

A specific set of images recurs throughout the work, tracing the overall structure of a unified poem: the 'Homeric Allegories'. These images can be found in key parts of the work, including the beginning of the Prolegomena to the Allegories of the Iliad, the introduction to the Allegories of the Odyssey, and the conclusion of the Allegories of the Odyssey. The images consist of references to Herodotus, stories of famous engineers, and sea imagery. They serve different purposes, with the sea representing the classical image of Homer as the ocean and the engineer symbolizing the writer. It is unclear whether Tzetzes planned the Homeric Allegories as a unitary work from the beginning, but the Allegories of the Odyssey were certainly written as a conclusion to the Allegories of the Iliad. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2023) </p> <div class="flex-shrink-0"> <a class="btn btn-outline-primary btn-sm" href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079425/add-to-collection" target="_blank"> <strong>Add to Collection</strong> </a> </div> </div> </div> <div class="my-4 border-bottom"> <div> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-blue"> Article </span> <span class="d-inline-block badge badge-cyan"> Medieval & Renaissance Studies </span> </div> <h4> <a href="https://www.peeref.com/works/29079428" class="text-dark hover-underline">Of tortoise necks and dialects.

The poem is attributed to John Mauropous, but its prosodic accuracy is questionable. It is a long prayer dedicated to the guardian angel, inspired by Mauropous' own hymn. The metrical analysis shows that the poem conforms to the standards of Mauropodean dodecasyllables, with a high frequency of three-word dodecasyllables, C7 caesura, and syntactical-rhetorical fixed structures within the lines. </div> </div> <div class="d-flex justify-content-between"> <p class="font-weight-bold"> <span class="text-primary">BYZANTINISCHE ZEITSCHRIFT</span> (2023) </p> <div
