  Northeast Insulae Project: Context and Analysis (revised edition)

  Mark Schuler

  This volume of the Final Report places the excavation of the northeast insulae into its historical and archaeological context and draws interpretive conclusions from the work done. Much of the material presented here is repeated in a second volume which recounts the history of the project sequentially. But the focus in this volume is on interpretation of the material remains in their context.

  1. Northeast Insulae Project: Context and Analysis

  Mark Schuler

  This book places the excavation of the northeast insulae at Hippos of the Decapolis, into its historical context, summarizes the archaeological findings, and posits that the site was an urban monastery centered around a healing cult that grew from the veneration of a revered woman and became a monastic infirmary also employing herbals to relieve the suffering in the larger community.

  2. Excavation of the Northeast Insulae

  Mark Schuler

  Presented in this volume are revised copies of the annual reports submitted for each of the excavation seasons (2002-2016, 2019). Revisions provide consistent terminology and presentation of graphic materials. These reports serve as the basis for the summaries and synthesis in the report, Northeast Insulae Project: Context and Analysis.

  3. Northeast Insulae Project in 3D

  Mark Schuler

  The 3D model documents architectural remains of the excavation of the Northeast Insulae at Hippos-Sussita after the conclusion of fieldwork begun in 2002 and finished in 2016. 181 targetless 360 degree scans were made over a two-week period in 2019 using a Leica BLK360 scanner. 145 of these scans were merged using 381 links first with Autodesk Recap Pro and then with Leica Cyclone Register 360. The final project has a Bundle Error of 0.014m, Overlap of 48% and Strength of 68%.
