Abstract
Marc’s achievement in Classical Archaeology in general and in Pisidia in particular has been immense, a commitment of energy and vision that very few of his contemporaries, maybe none, has equalled. The flow of papers by himself and with his colleagues and students has appeared to be a never-ending stream of new information on a wide range of fields, from environmental archaeology, materials science, through ceramics and settlement analysis into his own original field of urban architecture. This paper will only deal with one small and recent field in his lifetime interests, that of regional surface survey, and I want to focus on a hitherto neglected era for landscape archaeology, that which is broadly called ‘Byzantine’, but for us archaeologists we prefer to subdivide into Late Roman, Early, Middle and Late Byzantine phases. I shall also devote myself here to outlining how far this relatively new field of surface survey has been able to contribute to Byzantine history within Greece.
