| fk3rm_v1 | The Gold Goblet with Imperial Tyches in the Avar Treasure | The golden chalice with four tyches has a conflict between its form and iconography, that is, it is product from the 700s displaying iconography that prevailed two centuries earlier. Produced in an environment that had become increasingly Christianised from the age of Justinian I, chalices connected with the liturgy and depicted Christ and Saints. For a Byzantine Christian viewing an out-dated pagan goddesse in the place of respectable (and more familiar) saints, the conflict between the form and iconography would have been striking. Burial customs in the first period of Avar history (568-630) shed a light on the question. In elite graves, males and females were presented differently. Males were accompanied by horses, weapons, and other military accessories. Females with jewellery with Byzantine and Persian elements.This possibly reflected the special role of women in showing the military and diplomatic victories of the Avars. Is it possible that the Avar Khans selected the pattern of tyches on the goblet instead of the saints with strong religious meaning? When viewing the Roman goddess in the golden cup, they constructed the image of Byzantine Empire in their own way. | 2025-01-27T16:31:44.666817 | 2025-01-27T17:12:40.618132 | 2025-01-27T17:12:07.531108 | 2025-01-15T22:00:00 | bodoarxiv | 1 | accepted | 1 | 1 | https://doi.org/10.34055/osf.io/fk3rm | CC-By Attribution 4.0 International | Avars; Mediterranean; Tyche; burial; cities; gender | ["Avars", "Mediterranean", "Tyche", "burial", "cities", "gender"] | Lin Ying | [{"id": "crkfe", "name": "Lin Ying", "index": 0, "orcid": "0000-0001-8346-1635", "bibliographic": true}, {"id": "wuqde", "name": "Teresa Shawcross", "index": 1, "orcid": null, "bibliographic": false}] | Lin Ying | Medieval Studies; Byzantium; Art and Architecture; Time Periods; 6th Century; Archaeology; 7th Century; 8th Century | [{"id": "5c9129759141520017f39f59", "text": "Medieval Studies"}, {"id": "5c9129759141520017f39f5b", "text": "Byzantium"}, {"id": "5c9129759141520017f39f62", "text": "Art and Architecture"}, {"id": "5c9129759141520017f39f6c", "text": "Time Periods"}, {"id": "5c9129759141520017f39f6e", "text": "6th Century"}, {"id": "5c9129769141520017f39f70", "text": "Archaeology"}, {"id": "5c9129769141520017f39f7a", "text": "7th Century"}, {"id": "5c9129769141520017f39f87", "text": "8th Century"}] | https://osf.io/download/6797b52887f6bd846c7c22f7 | 0 | not_applicable | not_applicable | [] | 2025-04-09T21:06:19.822308 |
