Abstract Studente: Caterina Scirè Calabrisotto matricola: 956139 Dottorato: Scienze dell’Antichità Ciclo: 29° Titolo della tesi: Stable Isotope Analysis of Human and Faunal Remains. A Palaeodietary Investigation into Chalcolithic and Bronze Age Cyprus. Abstract: This study focuses on the Chalcolithic and Early to Middle Bronze Age periods of Cypriot prehistory (ca. 3900-1650 BC) and utilises stable light isotope analysis of bone and teeth to explore issues of diet and subsistence economy. A total of 100 human and animal skeletal samples from eight archaeological sites pertaining to the investigated period have been processed. Measurements were conducted either on bone and dentine collagen (C, N) or on tooth enamel carbonate (C, O). The new isotopic dataset is discussed within the frame of three main research aims: 1) to investigate possible dietary differences among the selected prehistoric communities, distinguishing between the Chalcolithic and the Early to Middle Bronze Age periods; 2) to clarify whether the pre and proto-historic inhabitants of Cyprus also relied on freshwater and marine foods; 3) to identify possible individual patterns of consumption, especially gender-related differences in the diet. Firma dello studente i 2. Acknowledgements This work of thesis has benefited from the support and advice of many people. Firstly, I must thank my supervisor, Prof. Filippo Maria Carinci, for placing his trust and confidence in my abilities to carry out this research. I would like to express special thanks to the acting directors of the Department of Antiquity of Cyprus – Dr. Marina Solomidou-Ieronymidou and Dr. Despo Pilides – and to the numerous archaeologists who have granted me permission to sample and analyse the skeletal material recovered at the archaeological sites included within this study: Demetra Aristotelous, Luca Bombardieri, Polina Christofi, David Frankel, Jennifer Webb, Edgar Peltenburg, Andrew Sneddon, Ian Todd, Alison South and Yiannis Violaris. My deepest and sincere gratitude goes to Popi Chrysostomou for her willingness in assisting me during the sampling procedure and easing bureaucratic practices. Along these lines, I must thank Derek C. Benedix, Paul Croft and David Reese for providing valuable advice in the sampling of the faunal remains. I would like to acknowledge Paola Ricci, Carmine Lubritto and the staff of the IRMS Laboratory of the Dipartimento di Scienze e Tecnologie Farmaceutiche of the Seconda Università di Napoli for helping me in preparing and measuring most of the bone samples. Very special thanks go to Julia Lee-Thorp for supporting my internship at the RLAHA Laboratory of the University of Oxford and offering helpful suggestions to improve this dissertation. Thanks are also due to Ian Cartwright for his help with the photographic documentation of teeth and to Peter Ditchfield and David Peat for their patience and support in the preparation and measurement of the samples I have analysed at the RLAHA. I also thank Gwenaëlle Goude from the Laboratoire méditerranéen de préhistoire Europe Afrique (Aix-en-Provence) for providing useful details on her isotopic work in Cyprus. Finally and foremost, I must thank my family and my friends for their constant encouragement and full support in completing this research project. I owe special thanks to Antonio G. Santoro for his informatics and statistical advice and for supporting me through every stage of this work. Grateful thanks must go to the organisations who have given me financial support: the Cyprus American Archaeological Research Institute for awarding me the Anita Cecil O’Donovan fellowship and the Scottish Archaeological Research Framework for supporting a conference visit. ii 3.

  • Mortuary Landscapes and the Production of Community During the Prehistoric Bronze Age on Cyprus
    Dwelling with the Dead: Mortuary Landscapes and the Production of Community During the Prehistoric Bronze Age on Cyprus by Eilis M Monahan This thesis/dissertation document has been electronically approved by the following individuals: Manning,Sturt (Chairperson) Russell,Nerissa (Minor Member) DWELLING WITH THE DEAD: MORTUARY LANDSCAPES AND THE PRODUCTION OF COMMUNITY DURING THE PREHISTORIC BRONZE AGE ON CYPRUS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Eilis M. Monahan August 2010 © 2010 Eilis M. Monahan ABSTRACT The Prehistoric Bronze Age is a tremendously important period on Cyprus for understanding the later development of the island. During this period architecture, settlement patterns, technologies, and subsistence practices changed drastically, and of greatest interest to this thesis, the dead were buried in discrete cemeteries. It has been historically stated by scholars that these cemeteries were located outside, and within view, of the associated settlements. The recent publication of the excavations and surveys of several Prehistoric Bronze Age sites allows these assumptions to be tested, and their implications considered. The shifts in settlement form and organization and in mortuary behavior clearly reflect major changes in the organization of society during this time period. By analyzing the various relationships between settlement and cemetery within the landscape, this thesis attempts to better understand the dimensions of variation and patterns of practice that shaped the changing society of the Cypriot Bronze Age. Using data from the excavations and surveys at Marki-Alonia, Alambra-Mouttes, and Sotira- Kaminoudhia, and the survey data from the Vasilikos Valley Project, as well as a reconnaissance survey undertaken by the author during the summers of 2008 and 2009, this thesis takes a behavioral and phenomenological approach to the PreBA Cypriot mortuary landscape, addressing four key aspects.

  • Map 72 Cyprus Compiled by D
    Map 72 Cyprus Compiled by D. Rupp, 1994 Introduction Many factors, both ancient and not so ancient, have contributed to the cultural map that can be constructed of Cyprus between 1100 B.C. and A.D. 640. Before the beginning of the third century B.C. the island remained on the periphery of the Greek world. Only then did hellenization begin to permeate its entire society, not just the elite in the urban centers of some of the Iron Age kingdoms. Political and economic ties with the Levant, as well as cultural influences, had contributed significantly to shaping the Cypriote landscape in the Iron Age. Until hellenization irrevocably transformed Cypriote society and its use of the landscape in the Hellenistic period, the historical geography of the island must be understood in its own indigenous terms. Aside from the principal urban centers of the Iron Age kingdoms, Greek and Roman sources do not provide a wealth of detailed information on the geography of Cyprus. Extant epigraphical sources are likewise relatively mute on this topic. It is thus archaeology that must be employed as the primary source for historical geography. In the later nineteenth century, the plundering of chamber tombs and of rural sanctuaries under the guise of research was the norm in Cypriote archaeology. Although subsequently this regrettable approach was abandoned and the scientific excavation of kingdom centers commenced, fascination with the material culture revealed by tombs and by sanctuaries continued unabated. As a result, while there now exists a wealth of evidence for their location, overall distribution patterns and periods of occupation, by contrast the location, size and nature of settlements is much less well understood.
