{"product_id":"the-small-temple-sara-reid-9781463202347","title":"The Small Temple","description":"Excavation of the Small Temple of Petra, Jordan has revealed a Roman building likely dedicated to the imperial cult. Constructed in the wake of Roman annexation of Nabataea in 106 CE, the temple would have helped to solidify Roman control. Reid systematically examines the evidence used to support the identification of the Small Temple as an imperial cult building through the discussion of its prominent use of marble, a material with Roman imperial associations and almost entirely monopolized by the bureaucracy of the Roman Empire. The analysis of architectural evidence, as well as the placement of the Small Temple within the city, also support this identification.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Sara Reid\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1463202342\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781463202347\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Gorgias Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 254\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.12lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.63d","brand":"Sara Reid","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123819966719,"sku":"9781463202347","price":79.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4f32c74d-bc36-4573-bde3-1cb477c09383.jpg?v=1687433064","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-small-temple-sara-reid-9781463202347","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
