Abstract:<\/p>\n
The present talk aims to address material mainly from instrumenta domestika or paraphernalia in order to illustrate the quintessential use of the magic and spells.
\nExamples from minor art objects revealed from the archaeological excavations shed
\nlight to their common iconography, use and production.
\nIn this talk their usual iconographies and accompanying spells are presented. Also,
\ntheir life before and during the Incarnation is discussed. Their changing or not-sochanging
\nformulae are scrutinized in the later Byzantine periods as well.<\/p>\n
