"The Adriatic has long occupied a liminal position between different cultures, languages
and faiths. This book offers the first synthesis of its history between the seventh
and the mid-fifteenth century, a period coinciding with the existence of the Byzantine
Empire which, as heir to the Roman Empire, lay claim to the region. The period also
saw the rise of Venice and it is important to understand the conditions which would
lead to her dominance in the late Middle Ages. An international team of historians
and archaeologists examines trade, administration and cultural exchange between the
Adriatic and Byzantium but also within the region itself, and makes more widely known
much previously scattered and localised research and the results of archaeological
excavations in both Italy and Croatia. Their bold interpretations offer many stimulating
ideas for rethinking the entire history of the Mediterranean during the period"
