Byzantine Court Culture from 829 to 1204

ISBN-13: 978-0-88402-242-8, ISBN: 0-88402-242-0

ISBN-13: 978-0-88402-150-6, ISBN: 0-88402-150-5

"The dating procedure for Byzantine seals is based on the assumption that there were changing fashions in the way that boulloteria were made in Byzantium and that individuals would tend to respect these fashions, or, at least, they would strive to have a seal that had the same general appearance as those of their contemporaries. This assumption may well be true for the majority of cases; but one must also allow for the personal fanc ..."
