  • Hittite Empire Centered in Asia Minor Came to an End When Barbarian Hordes from Thrace Swept Over the Western Lands and C
    The Doctrine of the Hittite The term Hittite has a twofold use in the OLD TESTAMENT. Usually it designates a relatively unimportant ethnic group living in Palestine since the days of the patriarchs. (Gen 15:19-21). These people, called the "sons of Heth," were descended from Noah's son Ham through Canaan (Gen 10:15; 1Ch 1:13) and were settled in the central hills of Palestine. (Num 13:29; Jos 11:3) In a few cases, however, the term Hittite is used in the OLD TESTAMENT to designate outsiders, non-Semitic peoples living in the north, who were to be respected and feared as a great power. (1Ki 11:1; 2Ki 7:6-7; 2Ch 1:17). These were the Hittites so famous from extrabiblical historical sources. Although it has been suggested that the small enclaves of Hittites in central Palestine were part of the northern Hittites who migrated south early in the 2nd millennim B.C., there need be no connection between the two groups at all, except for a coincidental similarity of name. The Indo-European Hittites who entered Anatolia (Turkey) and the Near East around 2000 from the steppes of inner Asia received their name more or less by accident, by virtue of the fact that they settled in territory previously held by an earlier non-Indo- European group called Hatti-people (or Hattians). Henceforth in this doctrine the three groups will be called "sons of Heth," "Hittites," and "Hattians" respectively, to avoid confusion. The red and black highly burnished Khirbet Kerah products found in Palestine are virtually identical with pottery in central Anatolia and the Kurgan homeland in Transcaucasia in the 3rd millennium B.C.

  • ARCH 2320: Household Archaeology in the Ancient Near East and Beyond
    ARCH 2320: Household archaeology in the ancient Near East and beyond Brown University Joukowsky Institute for Archaeology and the Ancient World Fall Semester 2014 Graduate Level Seminar Tuesdays 4:00 - 6:20 PM Instructor: Dr. Miriam Müller Office: Rhode Island Hall, Room 208 Email: [email protected] Phone: (401) 863-6936 Office Hours: Thursdays 1-3pm Course description Household archaeology as a new subfield in archaeology is becoming a major focus in the archaeological research in the coming years. Recent conferences and publications demonstrate the importance and impact of this new discipline in Near Eastern archaeology and beyond. After introducing the principles of household archaeology, the course will give an overview on the state of the field in the entire Near East and eastern Mediterranean. Drawing on developments from New World archaeology, the course will analyze the potential and problems of household archaeology and give a prospect on future directions in the field. House, home, household, family - when looking for a precise definition of these terms it immediately becomes clear that they are not as explicit as they seem to be. A ‘household’ as described by thefreedictionary.com is 1a) a domestic unit consisting of the members of a family who live together along with nonrelatives such as servants; 1b) the living spaces and possessions belonging to such a unit; 2) a person or group of people occupying a single dwelling. The term ‘household’ thus equally stands not only for the domestic unit, the house, the space, and its belongings, but also for a single person or a group often connected with a family living together in one dwelling.

  • Myth, the Marvelous, the Exotic, and the Hero in the Roman D'alexandre
    Myth, the Marvelous, the Exotic, and the Hero in the Roman d’Alexandre Paul Henri Rogers A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages (French) Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: Dr. Edward D. Montgomery Dr. Frank A. Domínguez Dr. Edward D. Kennedy Dr. Hassan Melehy Dr. Monica P. Rector © 2008 Paul Henri Rogers ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Paul Henri Rogers Myth, the Marvelous, the Exotic, and the Hero in the Roman d’Alexandre Under the direction of Dr. Edward D. Montgomery In the Roman d’Alexandre , Alexandre de Paris generates new myth by depicting Alexander the Great as willfully seeking to inscribe himself and his deeds within the extant mythical tradition, and as deliberately rivaling the divine authority. The contemporary literary tradition based on Quintus Curtius’s Gesta Alexandri Magni of which Alexandre de Paris may have been aware eliminates many of the marvelous episodes of the king’s life but focuses instead on Alexander’s conquests and drive to compete with the gods’ accomplishments. The depiction of his premature death within this work and the Roman raises the question of whether or not an individual can actively seek deification. Heroic figures are at the origin of divinity and myth, and the Roman d’Alexandre portrays Alexander as an essentially very human character who is nevertheless dispossessed of the powerful attributes normally associated with heroic protagonists.

  • From Small States to Universalism in the Pre-Islamic Near East
    REVOLUTIONIZING REVOLUTIONIZING Mark Altaweel and Andrea Squitieri and Andrea Mark Altaweel From Small States to Universalism in the Pre-Islamic Near East This book investigates the long-term continuity of large-scale states and empires, and its effect on the Near East’s social fabric, including the fundamental changes that occurred to major social institutions. Its geographical coverage spans, from east to west, modern- day Libya and Egypt to Central Asia, and from north to south, Anatolia to southern Arabia, incorporating modern-day Oman and Yemen. Its temporal coverage spans from the late eighth century BCE to the seventh century CE during the rise of Islam and collapse of the Sasanian Empire. The authors argue that the persistence of large states and empires starting in the eighth/ seventh centuries BCE, which continued for many centuries, led to new socio-political structures and institutions emerging in the Near East. The primary processes that enabled this emergence were large-scale and long-distance movements, or population migrations. These patterns of social developments are analysed under different aspects: settlement patterns, urban structure, material culture, trade, governance, language spread and religion, all pointing at population movement as the main catalyst for social change. This book’s argument Mark Altaweel is framed within a larger theoretical framework termed as ‘universalism’, a theory that explains WORLD A many of the social transformations that happened to societies in the Near East, starting from Andrea Squitieri the Neo-Assyrian period and continuing for centuries. Among other infl uences, the effects of these transformations are today manifested in modern languages, concepts of government, universal religions and monetized and globalized economies.

  • The Pedimental Sculpture of the Hephaisteion
    THE PEDIMENTALSCULPTURE OF THE HEPHAISTEION (PLATES 48-64) INTRODUCTION T HE TEMPLE of Hephaistos, although the best-preserved ancient building in Athens and the one most accessible to scholars, has kept its secrets longer than any other. It is barely ten years since general agreement was reached on the name of the presiding deity. Only in 1939 was the evidence discovered for the restora- tion of an interior colonnade whicli at once tremendously enriched our conception of the temple. Not until the appearance of Dinsmoor's study in 1941 did we have a firm basis for assessing either its relative or absolute chronology.' The most persistent major uncertainty about the temple has concerned its pedi- mental sculpture. Almost two centuries ago (1751-55), James Stuart had inferred 1 The general bibliography on the Hephaisteion was conveniently assembled by Dinsmoor in Hesperia, Supplement V, Observations on the Hephaisteion, pp. 1 f., and the references to the sculpture loc. cit., pp. 150 f. On the sculpture add Olsen, A.J.A., XLII, 1938, pp. 276-287 and Picard, Mamtel d'Archeologie grecque, La Sculpture, II, 1939, pp. 714-732. The article by Giorgio Gullini, " L'Hephaisteion di Atene" (Archeologia Classica, Rivista dell'Istituto di Archeologia della Universita di Roma, I, 1949, pp. 11-38), came into my hands after my MS had gone to press. I note many points of difference in our interpretation of the sculptural history of the temple, but I find no reason to alter the views recorded below. Two points of fact in Gullini's article do, however, call for comment.
