The possible origins and reasons for the popularity of the cult and possible syncretisms with other gods worshipped in Northern Lycia will be discussed alongside a presentation of Kakasbos/Herakles depictions in different media. The importance of the rider image and the widespread popularity of the rider-heros in the Late Roman Art will also be studied. Keywords: Kakasbos, Herakles, Rider god.

  • Tlos, Oinoanda and the Hittite Invasion of the Lukka Lands. Some Thoughts on the History of North-Western Lycia in the Late Bronze and Iron Ages

Some Thoughts on the History of North-Western Lycia in the Late Bronze and Iron Ages Summary: The present article contains observations on the invasion of Lycia by the Hittite king Tudhaliya IV as described in the Yalburt inscription. The author questions the commonly found identification of the land of VITIS/Wiyanwanda with the city of Oinoanda on account of the problems raised by the reading of the sign VITIS as well as of archaeological and strategical observations. With the aid of Lycian and Greek inscriptions the author argues that the original Wiya- nawanda/Oinoanda was located further south than the city commonly known as Oinoanda situated above İncealiler. These insights lead to a reassessment of the Hittite-Luwian sources concerning the conquest of Lycia.

    Sunuþ Çevreden Çýkarak arihsel çevre, doðal çevre, kentsel çevre olarak tanýmlanan ve yeni bir davranýþ Tkavramýný gündeme getiren çevre sözcüðü, evrenimizde insan oðlunun yerleþik düzene geçtiði Neolitik çaðdan bu yana bilinen bir sözcüktür. Zamanýmýzda ileri uygar- lýk düzeyini yakalamýþ zengin ülkeler, II. Dünya savaþýndan sonra çevre kavramýný çeþitli boyutlarý ile tartýþmýþlar ve gerekli koruyucu önlemlerini almýþlardýr. Ülkemizdeki Çevre kavramýna dönecek olursak, bu sözcüðün ve önüne gelen sýfatlarýn ancak çeyrek yüzyýllýk bir geçmiþi olduðunu görürüz. Bugün için çevre kavramýnýn içeriði hala çok kolay bir biçimde tarif edilir. Ancak tanýmýn ayrýntýsýna girildikçe, olayýn hiçte o kadar kolay açýklanamadýðý görülür. Biz arkeologlar için birinci derecede tarihsel çevre kavra- mý önem taþýr. Çünkü tarihsel çevremizin yaþamýmýzda bize vereceði dersleri, tercihleri ve davranýþ biçimlerimizi akýlcý bir yöntemle belirlememize olanak verir. Bu oluþumda dikkat edilecek olan ilkler arasýnda somut ve soyut kültür varlýklarýmýzý en iyi bir biçimde koruma bilincinin küçük yaþlardan itibaren toplumumuza verilmesi, saðlýklý bilgilerle uluslarýn kendi özgün kültürleri olabileceðini ve bunlar içinde korunmasý gerekli olan taþýnýr ve taþýnmaz kültür varlýklarýnýn da olabileceðini komplekslerden arýnarak öðret- memiz, bir yurttaþlýk görevi olmalýdýr. Bu öðreti o ülkenin kültürel yaþam kalitesini ortaya koymada en büyük etmendir. Kültürel yaþamýn oluþmasýnda geçmiþin ne denli önemli olduðunu görmemek bizce onarýlmasý olanaksýz bir yanýlgýdýr. Ülkemizde son çeyrek yüzyýlda geniþ halk kitlelerince kabul gören bu yeni taným, geçmiþimizin geleceðe ne kadar etkin olduðunu az da olsa öðretme becerisini yakalayabilmiþtir. Ancak Türkiye'nin plansýz ve ileriye dönük kurgularýnýn yapýlmaksýzýn baþlatýlan sanayileþme dönemi, kültürel varlýklarýmýzýn bilinçsizce kýyýmýna sebep olabilmiþtir. Son günlerde (Aralýk 2001 ve Ocak 2002) ülkemiz medyasýnda ve TBMM. genel kurulunda tartýþýlan bir konu ile "Tarihsel Çevre" Türkiye gündemine oturmuþtur.

  • Komai in Lykien
    GEPHYRA 1 2004 119-126 Friedrich HILD* KOMAI IN LYKIEN Abstract: Hild presents a comprehensive list of 85 poleis known from the coastal areas and the interior of Lycia. This large number of poleis is countered by far fewer villages (komai) known from literary and epigraphical sources to have existed in the territory (chora) of these cities. The author lists numerous examples of such villages, which were subordinate to the city in whose territory they lay, and provides brief information on the location of many of them. Die antike Kulturlandschaft Lykien war reich gegliedert.1 Einer Reihe von äußerst fruchtbaren Schwemmlandebenen an der Küste (Mündungsdelta des Indos/Dalaman Çay mit der Polis Kalynda, Küstenhof von Telmēssos/Fethiye, Delta des Xanthos Potamos mit Xanthos und Patara, Mündung des Myros Potamos mit Myra, Mündung des Arykandos mit Limyra und Phoinix, Mündung des Alakır Çayı mit Korydalla, Rhodiapolis und Gagai, Mündung des Barsak Çayı bei Tekirova mit Phasēlis, Mündung des Idyros Potamos mit Idyros) standen kleine und kleinste Buchten gegenüber, die ebenfalls als Zentren von Poleis dienten, so An- tiphellos/Kaş, Aperlai (in einer Sympolitie mit Isinda, Apollōnia und Simēna) in Zentrallykien und Kōrykos/Olympos in Ostlykien. Im Hinterland eigneten sich fruchtbare Täler für Stadt- gründungen, so für Tlōs, Pinara und Araxa im Tal des Xanthos Potamos, für Arykanda im Tal des Arykandos und für Akalissos (mit Idebēssos und Korma in einer Sympolitie vereinigt) im Tal des Alakır Çayı. Eingelagert zwischen den beiden großen Gebirgsmassiven des Kragos im Westen und des Masikytos im Osten sind im Quellgebiet des Myros Potamos die großen Becken der Kasaba Ovası mit den Poleis Kandyba und Arneai und die Elmalı Ovası mit den Poleis Podaleia, Chōma und Akarassos.

  • Phaselis Batı Ve Kuzeybatı Nekropolis'leri the Western And
    DOI:10.13114/MJH.2016.298 Geliş Tarihi:04.09.2016 Mediterranean Journal of Humanities Kabul Tarihi:16.11.2016 mjh.akdeniz.edu.tr VI/2 (2016) 279-297 Phaselis Batı ve Kuzeybatı Nekropolis’leri The Western and Northwestern Necropoleis of Phaselis Betül GÜREL Öz: Phaselis, Akdeniz‟de sahip olduğu üç doğal limanıyla önemli bir ticaret noktası olarak dikkat çekmektedir. Kent Lykia ve Pamphylia sınırlarının birleştiği noktada yer almaktadır. Bugüne kadar elde edilen arkeolojik veriler, epigrafik belgeler, nümizmatik bulgular ve antik kaynaklar ışığında kentin Arkaik Dönem‟den Doğu Roma Dönemi‟ne dek iskan gördüğü bilinmektedir. Phaselis‟te 1812 yılında başlayan ve kesintilerle 2000 yılına değin uzanan araştırmalar kent tarihi ve yerleşimi hakkında bazı bilgiler sunmasına karşın Phaselis nekropolis‟lerine dair detaylı bir çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu durum Phaselis‟in bölge sınırları içerisinde yer alan diğer antik kentlerle mezar mimarisini ve ölü gömme geleneklerini benzerlik ve farklılıklar açısından incelemeyi gerekli kılmaktadır. Kentte çeşitli unsurlarla birbirinden ayrılan üç nekropolis alanı bulunmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, nekropolis araştırmalarının başlangıcı için belirlenen “Batı ve Kuzeybatı Nekropolis” mercek altına alınmaktadır. Bu bağlamda şimdiye değin elde edilen veriler ışığında, nekropolis‟lerin kent içindeki konumu, sınırları, mezar türlerinin tespiti ve dağılımı ekseninde kentin gömü geleneğinin mezar mimarisine yansımalarına dair bilinenler ve yorumlar paylaşılmaktadır. Ayrıca kuzeybatı nekropolis‟te yer alan mezarların topografya üzerindeki dağılımını gösteren harita da çalışma içerisinde yer almaktadır. Anahtar sözcükler: Phaselis, Nekropolis, Mezar, Lahit, Khamasorion, Ostothek, İnhumasyon, Kremasyon Abstract: The ancient Mediterranean port-city of Phaselis attracts attention as an significant commercial hub with its three natural harbours. The city is located on the border between Lycia and Pamphylia.

  • Unique Representation of a Mosaics Craftsman in a Roman Pavement from the Ancient Province Syria
    JMR 5, 2012 103-113 Unique Representation of a Mosaics Craftsman in a Roman Pavement from the Ancient Province Syria Luz NEIRA* The subject of this paper is the study of the figured representation of a mosaics-craftsman in a fragmentary pavement, preserved in the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen. Of unknown provenance, apparently comes from the territory of ancient Syria in the Eastern Roman Empire. Such representation is a hapax, not only in the Roman mosaics of Syria, but also in the corpus of Roman Empire, since, although several mosaic inscriptions in some pavements, which show the name of the mosaic artisans and / or different names for different functions of the trades related to the development of mosaics, and even the reference to the workshop, who were teachers or members of his team of craftsmen, the figured representation of a mosaicist, in the instant to be doing his work, is truly unique. Keywords: mosaic, mosaics-craftsman, Syria, Eastern Roman Empire, Late Antiquity. When in 1998 I had the opportunity to visit the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen, I could see between the collections of exposed mosaics a fragment with the figure of a man represented at the instant of having, hammer in hand, the tesserae of a mosaic. Years later, when tackling a study on the jobs of artists and artisans in the roman mosaics1, checked its absence in the bibliography, nevertheless extensive and prolix on the subject, and put me in contact with the director of the Classical Antiquities Department in the Danish Museum, Dr. John Lund, who, to my questions2 about the origin of the fragment, kindly answered me.

  • Parerga to the Stadiasmus Patarensis (16): the Roads, Settlements and Territories
    GEPHYRA 13, 2016, 89-118 Parerga to the Stadiasmus Patarensis (16): The Roads, Settlements and Territories Fatih ONUR in memory of Prof. Dr. Sencer ŞAHİN In this paper, I discuss some issues concerning the relationship between roads, settlements and ter- ritories recorded in the Stadiasmus Patarensis (SP). Accepting that the SP was not a journey guide and that it just provided the length of the roads (R) constructed or renovated, and of course meas- ured, between almost all of the major and some minor settlements, I propose: firstly, that the roads between the settlements were from and into the settlements’ town zones; secondly, that the compo- sition of the road list took account of the territories of the settlements; thirdly, that all the settle- ments mentioned in the SP had an independence, which might have varied in different status. The paper opens by discussing the use of prepositions and articles in the SP, before addressing the courses of the roads. I shall then treat the probable start and end points of the roads, and dedicate a final section to the political status of the settlements and the related territorial issues. Before addressing these points, I believe that it should be firstly and precisely determined what was meant by the use of ὁδός on the SP at the top of side B. From the beginning of our research and publications, we have called these road connections, the “routes” (itinera) between settlements, Assoc.
