During late antiquity hygienic habits and the usage of water change considerably. Small scale urban baths and private establishments now exist alongside the lavish Roman thermae. While until recently, primarily the decline of urban structures was perceived as responsible for the eventual abandonment of the great ancient thermae, new investigations would seem to suggest a modified attitude towards body and cleaning as a main reason for this development. In the addition, religious and symbolic connotations of water become increasingly important and complex.The conference aims at a broad discussion of these issues in the light of new discoveries and archaeological data from Byzantine and Islamic contexts in the central and eastern Mediterranean. The concept of decline may eventually be challenged in view of changing values and meanings atttached to the baths.

Le abitudine igieniche e l‘utilizzo dell‘acqua sono cambiati in modo considerevole durante la tarda antichità. In questo periodo troviamo stabilimenti privati e bagni termali di dimensioni ridotte accanto alle grandiose thermae degli Romani. Mentre fino a poco tempo si attribuiva l‘abbandono delle grandi strutture termali dell‘antichità al generale declino dell‘assetto urbano, oggi nuovi studi sembrerebbero indicare una nuova attitudine nei confronti del corpo e dell‘igiene personale come il fattore decisivo di questa trasformazione. Va tenuto conto anche delle crescente importanza data ai significati simbolici e alle valenze religiose dell‘acqua. Scopo della conferenza è propio quello di promuovere un‘ampia discussione di quesi problemi alla luce delle nuove scoperte e die rinvenimenti archeologici nelle aree bizantine e islamiche del Mediterraneo centrale ed orientale. Possiamo quindi rivedere l‘idea di un cambiamento dovuto soltanto al degrado architettonico per prendere invece in seria considerazione la profonda trasformazione dei valori e dei significati associate ai bagni termali.

In der Spätantike kündigt sich ein veränderter Umgang mit Wasser an. Neben den verschwenderischen Wasserluxus öffentlicher Thermen treten klein dimensionierte Stadtteilbäder und private Einrichtungen. Galt bisher der Niedergang der städtischen Infrastruktur als Grund für die Aufgabe der Thermen, so treten in der Gegenwart neue Interpretationsmuster auf, in denen sich eine veränderte Hygienepraxis und ein neues Körperverhältnis abzeichnen. Mit dem gezielten Einsatz der Ressource Wasser geht zugleich eine religiöse, symbolische Aufladung als Quelle des Lebens oder der Erkenntnis einher. Die Tagung nimmt diese Veränderungen durch eine breite Diskussion von Ausgrabungsbefunden in den Blick. Was bislang primär als Rückschritt und Niedergang im frühen Mittelalter wahrgenommen wurde, ist in seinen Brüchen und Transformationen von paradigmatischer Bedeutung.
