This absolute chronology was used to evaluate existing assumptions about the occupational history of the promontory and its relationship to the greater region, in both prehistoric and postcolonial periods. Lastly, the efficacy of the luminescence method was explored and advanced through the implementation of new and emerging techniques for dating pottery using luminescence and then for systematically determining the objective value and reliability of each date.

Washington, DC December 17, 2010 Copyright 2010 by Andrew Robarts All Rights Reserved ii A PLAGUE ON BOTH HOUSES?: POPULATION MOVEMENTS AND THE SPREAD OF DISEASE ACROSS THE OTTOMAN-RUSSIAN BLACK SEA FRONTIER, 1768-1830S Andrew Robarts, M.S.F.S. Dissertation Advisor: Catherine Evtuhov, Ph. D. ABSTRACT Based upon a reading of Ottoman, Russian, and Bulgarian archival documents, this dissertation examines the response by the Ottoman and Russian states to the accelerated pace of migration and spread of disease in the Black Sea region from the outbreak of the Russo-Ottoman War of 1768-1774 to the signing of the Treaty of Hünkar Iskelesi in 1833. Building upon introductory chapters on the Russian-Ottoman Black Sea frontier and a case study of Bulgarian population movements between the Russian and Ottoman Empires, this dissertation analyzes Russian and Ottoman migration and settlement policies, the spread of epidemic diseases (plague and cholera) in the Black Sea region, the construction of quarantines and the implementation of travel document regimes.

  • The Black Sea, the “Plaque Tournante” of the Euro-Asian Trade During the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries
    The Black Sea, the “plaque tournante” of the Euro-Asian Trade during the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Centuries by Şerban Papacostea & Virgil Ciocîltan, “Nicolae Iorga” History Institute of the Romanian Academy, Bucharest Abstract This paper is a synthetic approach to the history of the Black Sea between 1204 and 1453, when the area served, according to the famous phrase of Romanian historian Gheorghe Brătianu, as the “plaque tournante” of the Euro-Asian trade. After centuries of Byzantine control over its trade and shipping, the prospects of this sea completely and rapidly changed after two historic events that occurred in the thirteenth century: the conquering of the Straits by the Italian maritime republics after 1204, and the territorial expansion of the Mongol Empire. The authors present the international context that allowed the transformation of the Black Sea into the contact area between Mediter- ranean merchants and Eastern goods that came along the Silk Road, the veritable backbone of this commerce, as well as the continuous conflicts between the regional powers interested to take control of these profitable exchanges: Venice, Genoa, the Golden Horde, the Byzantine Empire, other local rulers, etc. After the conquest of Constantinople by the Ottoman Turks in 1453, the Black Sea eventu- ally became once again the economic appendix of the empire that controlled the Bosporus and the Dardanelles. wo powerful expansions that took place (creators of empires) – and their cooperation Tin the Euro-Asian area during the thir- for exploiting the great commercial routes teenth century created momentum for inter- which connected Asia and Europe resulted in continental trade and, subsequently, for the the considerable development of Euro-Asian world economy.

    TALANTAXXXVI-XXXVII (2004-2005) THE GREEK COLONIES IN THE PONTIC AREA DURING THE 5TH CENTURY BC, ATHENS, THE RISE OF THE “BARBARIAN” KING- 1 DOMS AND THE IONIAN REVOLT: AN ECONOMIC APPROACH (Supplementum Ponticum 2) J.G. de Boer One of the many interesting periods of the ancient history of the Black Sea region is the transition between the last quarter of the 6th and the first half of the 5th century BC, in which trade seems to become the main occupation of, or at least much more important for, the Pontic Greeks. Events which preceded this change however already started at the end of the 8th century BC, when the east Greek cities on the Ionian coast started to enlarge their territory and pushed the boundaries of their chora far into the area which was inhabited by the local Carian population. However, during the middle of the 7th century BC, groups of Thraco-Cimmerians crossed the Bosporus and attacked the new independent state of Lydia (De Boer d, forthcoming). This state became independent after the destruction of the Phrygian kingdom by an earlier group of Cimmerians that had arrived at the beginning of the 7th century BC from the northern Pontic region along the eastern coast of the Black Sea in Anatolia and the Near East. These events forced the Lydian king Gyges to station Ionian and Carian mercenaries at Abydos (Th. VIII.61; Str. I.3.21; XIII.1.22), a place earlier inhabited by Thracians (Hom. Il. IV. 500; Str. XIII.1.22) and probably used during these invasions into Lydian territory.

Bu çalışmamızda Sinop ilinde pek çok yerleşmede hasara neden olan heyelanların nedenleri üzerinde durulmuştur. Afet İşleri Genel Müdürlüğü’nün verilere göre, 1960–2004 yılları arasında, Sinop ilinde 465 köye bağlı toplam 1828 mahallenin, 290 tanesi, heyelanlardan zarar görmüştür. Burada meydana gelen heyelanlarda arazinin jeolojik yapısı, eğim durumu, yağışlar gibi doğal çevre faktörlerinin yanı sıra yanlış arazi kullanımı, yol yapımı gibi yamaç dengesini bozucu insan faaliyetlerinin de etkisi olmaktadır. Anahtar Kelimeler: Doğal Afet, Heyelan, Yerleşme, Türkiye, Sinop. Abstract Landslide is the most occured natural disaster in Sinop. In this research, we focused on landslide which causes damage in housing locations in Sinop. According to data of the General Directorate of Disaster Affairs (GDDA), between 1960 and 2004, 290 of the 1828 towns in 465 villages were damaged by landslide. In addition to the geological formation, slope, and rainfall that are results of the natural environmental process; inappropriate land use and road construction are also regarded some of the most important characteristics that destruct the stability of the ground. Key words: Natural Disaster, landslide, Settlement,Turkey, Sinop 1. Giriş: Türkiye; jeolojik yapısını oluşturan kayaçlar, yer şekilleri ile iklim, hidrografya, toprak ve bitki örtüsü özellikleri nedeniyle çok sık afetlerle karşılaşan ve bu afetler nedeniyle önemli ölçüde can ve mal kayıplarına uğrayan ülkelerden biridir. Afet İşleri Genel Müdürlüğü’nün verilerine göre ülkemizde deprem, su baskını, heyelan, çığ ve diğer afetler nedeniyle son yüzyıl içerisinde 86 000 kişi hayatını kaybederken, 150 000 kişi de yaralanmış ve 600 000 konut hasara uğramıştır.

I argue that archeological and literary evidence indicate that local (populations such as the Mariandynoi, Syrians, Caucones, Paphlagonians, and Tibarenians) and dominant external (including: Miletus, Megara/Boeotia, Athens, and Persia) socio-economic Network systems developed and shaped these three colonies, and helped explain their role in the overarching Black Sea Network.
