Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 1st Edition. This quarto magazine-style "newspaper" ("registered as a newspaper for transmission in the United Kingdom") measures 10-1/4 X 14-1/4 inches (26 X 36 cm. -- slightly larger than the bed of our scanner) on glossy, coated stock. Welcoming Sierra Leone into the Commonwealth;…excavation of the 2,400-year-old temple of Hemithea, near Pazarlik; photos of "The smiling victor Dr. Fidel Castro the Prime Minister"; calcified bodies being uncovered at Pompeii; Lyndon Johnson watching John Kennedy sign a bill that makes Johnson chairman of the National Aeronautics and Space Council; John Glenn on the ground in Mercury spacecraft; "Beautiful Queen Farah of Iran." The Triumph Herald "1200" saloon, a boxy and unimpressive little two-door (though not much worse than the Austin A40 advertised in color inside the rear wrap) is named "Car of the Month" for its "attractive styling and eye appeal" (!) A full-page ad tries to convince us the beautiful people (including some dude wearing a MONOCLE) are drinking"Whisky and Canada Dry Ginger Ale" at the Cafe Royal, Regent Street, at 10:30 p.m. (like, in the same glass?), while a half-page airline ad urges travelers to fly via M*E*A Comet 4C to "Lebanon, The Land With Everything," including scantily clad showgirls in "Beirut, the playground of the Middle East." (How's that tourist trade coming along, Hamas, Hezbollah?) The de Haviiland Comet, with four de Havilland Ghost turbojet engines buried in the wing roots, world's first commercial jet airliner, was introduced in 1949 and withdrawn from service after a year, after suffering "catastrophic in-flight break-ups," which can spoil your whole day. Two of these were found to be caused by "structural failure resulting from metal fatigue in the airframe, a phenomenon not fully understood at the time." (The square windows proved to be unwise, as well. The redesigned Comet 4 debuted in 1958 and remained in commercial service until 1981.) Pages numbered 733 through 776, plus the glossy outer wraps. This single issue of the periodical now reduced from $20.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. xiii + 179 pages, illustrations (some folding) : 25 cm. An account of the excavation of a Greek sanctuary in the south-west corner of the mainland of Asia Minor opposite Rhodes - once known as the Carian Chersonese. The excavation took place in 19591…960. This was the first Greek temple of any size to be uncovered in that part of Asia Minor, and the discovery of the site of Kastabos, whose existence was known from book V of Diodorus' world history, entailed the re-siting of several ancient towns in the region. The sanctuary itself, whose main buildings dated from c. 300 BC, was dedicated to the healing Goddess Hemithea. The excavations showed that, although it was an Ionic temple, the style of the great contemporary temples in Ionia (such as that at Ephesus) is modified and the design is somewhat similar, in plan and proportion, to that of the temple at Epidaurus.

"This is an account of the excavation of a Greek sanctuary in the south-west corner of the mainland of Asia Minor opposite Rhodes--once known as the Carian Chersonese. The e…xcavations took place in 1959-1960. This is the first Greek temple of any size uncovered in that part of Asia Minor, and the discovery of the site of Kastabos, whose existence was known from book V of Diodorus' world history, has entailed the re-siting of several ancient towns in the region. The sanctuary itself, whose main buildings date from c. 300 B. C. , was dedicated to the Goddess Hemithea. It adds to our knowledge of a special sort of Greek shrine which was popular in the early Hellenistic age and is a perfect instance of a religious gathering place designed for a short, well attended festival. The excavations show that, although it was an Ionic temple, the style of the great contemporary temples in Ionia (such as that at Ephesus) has been modified and the design is somewhat similar, in plan and proportion, to that of the temple of Epidaurus. In particular, the discovery of a decorative screen with little shrines round the temple area throws new light on Greek architectural complexes." ; 180 pages.
