  • 47-68. American Archaeologists in Turkey
    Journal of American Studies of Turkey 4 (1996) : 47-68. American Archaeologists in Turkey: Intellectual and Social Dimensions Charles Gates A standard Turkish concept about archaeology, one attested by my students, (Note 1) is that Turkey is exceptionally rich in archaeological remains and, as a result, foreigners naturally want to work here. But the world is full of archaeological remains, even North America. The reasons why American and other foreign archaeologists might choose to undertake research in Turkey instead of in other countries are more complex than the Turkish public generally realizes. In this article I examine the motives of American archaeologists who have worked in Turkey. What they have found will be less important than why they came here in the first place. Aspects of the problem include the academic/intellectual framework into which the archaeology of Turkey fits in the United States, socio-political factors, and changes through time. American archaeology in Turkey is seen to be a component of US social and intellectual history, but it is a part of the social and intellectual history of Turkey as well. (Note 2) Archaeology in Turkey can be divided into three major periods: Pre-Classical, Classical (Greek and Roman), and Medieval-Modern (Byzantine, Seljuk, and Ottoman). This article is concerned with the American activities in the first two, the third having rarely been the primary focus of archaeological work except when the architectural history of specific buildings is under investigation. One further restriction: I shall concentrate on work done within the borders of the Turkish Republic of today, making only passing reference to research in adjacent areas once held by the Ottoman Empire.

  • A Biographical Sketch POPULAR Imagination Often Creates Legends
    CYRUS ADLER A Biographical Sketch By ABRAHAM A. NEUMAN I POPULAR imagination often creates legends about the lives of great personalities. These legends are not whimsical fancies. They are the language of folk psychology. They reveal the traits of character in the heroes which fascinated the popular mind. In Jewish literature the legends usually cluster around the birth of its great characters. Strange omens or miracles are associated with the time or place of the hero's birth that seem to forecast the destiny of the life that follows. At times, Fate anticipates legend. It operates with true facts to produce the effect of legendary symbolism. Such is the impression created by the simple record that Cyrus Adler was born in Van Buren, Arkansas, on September 13, 1863. A small town in a border-line state between the North and the South, Van Buren, Adler's birthplace, may be said to have typified a normal American community. During the Civil War, it formed a battleground for the opposing armies. It experienced in full measure the tragic sacrifices of the struggle which was destined to end in a new cove- nant of union and freedom in America. The time and place were ideally propitious for the rise of a character to whom patriotism and freedom were the essence of religion, to whom the ideal of union had a profoundly mystic appeal, whether it was political union to preserve the republic or religious unity to preserve the faith into which he was born. A restless spirit and a mood of adventure impelled Samuel Adler, the father of Cyrus, as a young immigrant lad from Mannheim, Germany, to strike out for far-off Van Buren in Arkansas.

  • Archaeology and Philology: the Dirt and the Word Emily Vermeule Harvard University
    Archaeology and Philology: The Dirt and the Word Emily Vermeule Harvard University Ladies and gentlemen, friends and fellows, jokers of the American Philological Association and colleagues of the Archaeological Institute of America, You APA members perpetrated a cosmic joke in electing a Bronze Age archaeologist as your president. Why did you do it, when you could have had a much more eligible philosopher or literary person? You have caused me a deal of trouble, especially in finding words for tonight. I have heard many APA presidential addresses, most of them excellent; this will be distinguished from all others in having no discernible content. As Jane Austen once put it, "Mary wished to say something sensible, but knew not how." Still, I may say, you have also given me a deal of pleasure, in relating to people like William Ziobro and Robert Kaster who have brought stability and good will into my life. The Dirt and the Word: that is the kind of unmeaning opposition in a title, perhaps intended to evoke the AIA and the APA, sent in when a request for a title is overdue and when nothing has been thought about or written yet. But let me see what I can do to solidify this foolish contrast. The Dirt: it supports us; we walk on it, it feeds us with crops and fruits; our neighbors the animals seek shelter from us killers across it; it also hides us and our brief doings when we are gone. It is our life first, our death later. The Word: it separates us from the animals, or so we say in our present arrogant ignorance; it allows us to express our own inestimable creative value to ourselves; we put it in the mouth of God, and it marks a sense of our origins; it encourages us to create imaginary impalpable worlds and to control them like gods ourselves; it is our protection against death, for the Word will outlive us if we use it rightly and well and memorably.

  • Dorothy Burr Thompson 1900-2001 by Jaimee P. Uhlenbrock
    1 Dorothy Burr Thompson 1900-2001 by Jaimee P. Uhlenbrock In the early l870s terracotta figurines from the Hellenistic period began to appear on the antiquities market of Athens. Prospective buyers were told that they had come from graves near the ancient city of Tanagra in Boeotia, roughly 12 miles east of Thebes, where local inhabitants had dug them up from a vast cemetery. Of an outstanding artistic quality, they were quickly purchased by collectors eager to possess original examples of Greek sculpture, even though dealers also had resorted to selling pastiches and by 1876, outright forgeries because of the scarcity of good originals. Controlled excavations were carried out a Tanagra intermittently between 1874 and 1889 in an effort to halt the widespread looting of the graves that had developed because of the market demand for these “Tanagra figurines,” as they were called. Nevertheless, the archaeological contexts within which these Tanagras were found continued to be destroyed, and all evidence for dating and interpretation was hopelessly lost.1 The inclusion of Tanagras in an exhibition dedicated to Greek art from private collections in the Exposition Universelle in Paris in 18782 resulted in intensified interest in them as collectibles, as well as intensified activity in the forger’s studio. This was, in large measure, facilitated by the fact that Tanagras were made from molds. Even though most false Tanagras were easily spotted by archaeologists, many nevertheless entered museum collections, so that the entire genre of Hellenistic terracottas began to be viewed with suspicion and distrust by the scholarly 2 community. Yet their popularity continued unabated among collectors.

For one of these, the Fiftieth Anniversary, it was necessary for me to go through many early papers relating to the founding of the college and also to read through 1 the president's reports which exist for each year of President Rhoads term, 1885-1894, and for the first eleven years of President Thomas's term, 1895-1906. After that time, as the Directors probably know, she ceased to present any narrative account of the year and the president's reports as annually published consisted only of statistics tabulated by the various offices.
