Karian Architecture Before the Hekatomnids
Abdulkadir Baran
Keywords: Aeolic architecture, Archaic period, Classic period, Hekatomnids, Ionic architecture, Ionic Renaissance, Karia
Abstract: The background to the intensive building program of the Hekatomnid dynasty in the 4th cen- tury B.C. has been sought in other regions, because the architectural development of Karia before the Hekatomnids is unknown. The Hekatomnid period, which includes the buildings in Ionia and Karia, has been named the “Ionic and/or Ionian Renaissance” as a result of similarities with Archaic Ionic buildings. On the other hand, some unique architectural features of this period indicate the existence of a local source for the Hekatomnid building program. For understanding the period before the Hekatomnids the architectural members presented in this study were chosen because they can be dated stylistically to this period since not a single building remains in situ. When all the architectural mate- rial, including possible remains in situ and the ancient textual sources have been taken into consider- ation, the architectural progress of Karia can be determined. All the material leads us to conclude that Karia had an architectural tradition in a comparable scale with the other regions, also after the Archaic period. It can be said that some unique architectural features of Karia indicate that the region was not only a follower but was also one of the leaders in the development of the Aeolic and Ionic architectural styles.
An intensive building program1 was initiated by
Hekatomnos and his successors, a native Karian dynasty, who ruled as Persian satraps2. It has been suggested that it was a revival of Ionic architecture after the Persian domination of Anatolia. In contrast to what can be drawn from ancient texts and epigraphic evidence3 the buildings that can be safely dated to this period are very few: the Maussolleion at Halikarnassos and its terrace4, the propylon of the Artemis Sanctuary at Amyzon5, the Temple of Zeus at Labraunda and other buildings in that sanctuary6 are the only buildings which can be archaeologically dated to the Hekatomnid period. The building activity initiated by the Hekatomnids in the 4th century

B.C. was termed the ‘Ionic Renaissance’ by Noack7. It has now been accepted by other scholars as well8. The term was meant to explain a renewed building activity that introduced new ideas combined with elements of Archaic Ionic architecture. The term was subsequently changed to ‘Ionian Renaissance’, with the idea of being the revival not only of architectural forms but also referring to other cultural expressions9. It is believed that this period of revival, following the construction of the earliest building, Andron B at Labraunda10, continued into the Hellenistic period11, but its exact limits have not been established yet.
However, the background to the so-called Ionic
Renaissance has not received the studies it merits and it is still not certain whether there was a real revival or whether there was a continuation of earlier practices flourishing with the help of the financial strength of the Hekatomnid rulers. For this reason, the background to the Karian architectural development that produced an architect like Pytheos in the 4th century needs to be investigated. The main problem of this investigation is the lack of dated building remains and for this reason the study will analyze architectural members that can be dated stylistically to this period. The architectural members presented here include not only the published ones but will also introduce some new pieces found during our surveys. After examining the architectural pieces it is possible to compare them with dated examples. The architectural members will also be grouped by their dates, sizes, find-spots and stone types. When all the architectural members are combined with the ancient texts, the epigraphic evidence and other archaeological remains it is possible to identify some buildings and temples in Karia.
Knidian Peninsula
An Aeolic capital found in the Knidian peninsula by Bean and Cook12 can be dated to the second half of the 6th century B.C. by comparison with examples from Cyprus13 and Larisa in Aeolis14. It was suggested by Betancourt15 as belonging to a stele. However, its upper carrying surface, the bolster arrangement and especially its thickness indicate that it is an Aeolic pilaster capital16.
Kos
The first evidence indicating Karian rule over Kos is to be joined into the battle of Salamis under queen Artemisia in 480 B.C.17. There is no evidence for Karian rule over Kos after that period and the synoikism of Kos in 366 B.C. is said to be the result of not the Hekatomnid influence but probably a democratic move18. On the other hand, it is known that Kos was under Hekatomnid rule after the synoikism19. Although there are no building remains, ce-

Karian Architecture Before the Hekatomnids
293 ramic finds and inscriptions show the existence of an earlier occupation on Kos city20. Only two architectural members have been noticed in the museum and they were published by Shoe21. An anta capital fragment22 and a crown block fragment23 which are dated to the late 6th century B.C. could not be connected with any building, but since they are of similar size and material, it is very probable that they belonged to the same structure24. Their possible origin might be the Athena or Apollon Pythios sanctuaries which have horoi inscriptions from the 5th century B.C.25.
Radt also published two buildings which have
Aeolic capitals from another Lelegian-style settlement at Alazeytin near Bodrum29. Buildings 30 and 31, though still unexcavated, were suggested to be a heroon and an altar respectively. Radt presented a reconstruction of the possible heroon building30 with the help of two Aeolic pilaster capitals used as door consoles31. There were also wall crowns32, pieces of ovolo and astragal-profiled undecorated blocks33, as well as a geison block34 scattered around the building. Building 31 with its rectangular form and containing five steps inside could be identified as an altar by comparing it with similar Archaic stepped altars35. Two Aeolic pilaster capitals have fully decorated faces and were placed in the reconstruction with their sides towards the front36. Although the capitals point to an upper structure, there is not enough evidence for such a restoration. Furthermore, there are no other examples of the arrangement with capitals placed with their sides towards the front. With the help of the capitals, both buildings can be dated to the period just after the middle of the 6th century B.C. The pilaster form of the capitals, and especially their employment as door consoles in Building 30, can be compared to examples from Cyprus and the Eastern Mediterranean37. The volute forms and the
Halikarnassos Peninsula
Radt found a piece of kyma block from the debris of a monumental unidentified building in the Lelegian-style settlement on Kaplanda% near Bodrum26. The shapes of the darts27 in the ovolo moulding and the curled ornament28 on the bottom side are comparable to a few other examples, but with the ovolo form it is possible to date it around the middle of the 6th century B.C. Although the building has not been excavated, the existence of an early temple in the small castle seems probable because of the remains and kyma block fragment.

decorations of the capitals (except the pilaster form) can be compared to Aeolic capitals of western Anatolia38. This different treatment of the capitals can probably be defined as a Karian element. in the Türkkuyusu area is a temple as was suggested by Pedersen on the basis of some architectural members found in the area41. For this reason, until more evidence is found, it may be suggested that the Archaic crown block may belong to an earlier phase of the suggested Türkkuyusu Temple.
Two identical column necks found in Bodrum indicate another late Archaic building at Halikarnassos42. The column necks are of the same material and size and have the same ornaments. They clearly belong to the same structure. Similar examples help to date the column necks around 500–480 B.C. There is no information about the structure that they might have belonged to, because there are no building remains or architectural members to connect them with. The first column neck was reused as a base for a portico column in a mosque north of the castle. This may be an indication of the original location of the building, but there are no solid references for this possibility.
Another example that indicates that the Aeolic style was used in Karia is a console block from the Bodrum Underwater Archaeology Museum39. It was clearly used as a door console with its round recess at the back side for the placement of the door pole. Although its square form is different, the volute arrangement and the console function can be compared to the Alazeytin examples. The console block was dated to a period later than the Alazeytin examples but they are possibly contemporary.
Halikarnassos
A crown block which was used as a threshold of a garden door in a house from Türkkuyusu area at Bodrum is the earliest architectural member from Halikarnassos. It can be dated around 530 B.C.40. Although there are no archaeological remains or finds in the area, the crown block must have belonged to a building in the vicinity. The earliest possible building
A well known Ionic capital from Halikarnassos was dated to the first quarter of the 5th century B.C.43. It has small dimensions and cannot be connected with the other architectural members. In some archaeological publications, the capital has been suggested to belong to a votive monument44 or to a
