ForewordThe papers in this volume derive from a conference held at theBritish Museum and Kings College, London, from 2729 May2008. The conference, organised under the auspices of theBritish Museum Byzantine Seminar, was the fifth in an annualseries going back to 2003. The purpose of these conferences isto examine recent research in the field of Late Antique andByzantine art and archaeology with a special focus on materialculture. The objective of this particular conference was toconcentrate on the burgeoning field of Byzantine jewellery

with specific reference to the work being done by colleagues onthe Continent. Papers delivered at the seminar covered adiverse range of topics ranging from technical deliberations totopics such as the relationship between the metalwork ofByzantium and its neighbours, including inter alia theVisigoths, Lombards, Avars, Slavs, Islam and Kievan Rus.Further papers explored the topic of how we attempt (or not)to identify the jewellery emanating from the capitalConstantinople as opposed to regional centres, and what are

the stylistic and technical criteria employed. All but four of thepapers given at the conference are published in this volume.

For their assistance with photographic enquiries and otherlogistical matters the editors would like to thank respectivelyMarta Zlotnik and Stephen Zwirn of the Dumbarton OaksCollection, Washington DC, and Christina Vona and PanoreaBenatou of the Benaki Museum, Athens. Both Sofia Valenteand Kit Candler, voluntary interns with British Museum Press,provided generously of their t ime towards the design of thevolume. Further thanks are due to Cindy Archer, Grants

Manager at the Thaw Charitable Trust. Our greatest debt,however, is to Josephine Turquet, Series Editor of BritishMuseum Occasional Papers, without whose enthusiasm andpatience this volume would be much the worse.
