  • 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.

    Byzantine and Modern Greek Studies 43 (1) 1–23 Questioning Late Antique prosperity: the case of Lycia (southwest Turkey)1 Kristina Terpoy University of Oxford [email protected] The concept of a prosperous late antique eastern Mediterranean has become well-established in scholarship. Lycia (Turkey) is considered to be one such prosperous region in particular. This article questions the notion of ‘prosperity’ and its application to the Lycian region and argues that only certain coastal areas experienced what might be considered ‘prosperity’ in this period. Moreover, it is argued that some settlements, specifically those of the interior, did not experience ‘prosperity’, but may have even declined. Thus, a generalized application of ‘prosperity’ should be approached with caution as it masks nuances in the settlement development and economy of micro- regions. Keywords: Lycia; Anatolia; Late Antiquity; historiography; prosperity Introduction In recent years, the concept of a prosperous late antique eastern Mediterranean has become widely established and accepted in scholarship. Thanks to archaeological survey and excavation work, evidence has revealed expanding rural settlement across this broad territory in the period between circa the fourth and seventh centuries.2 1 This article derives from research conducted for my DPhil thesis: K. Terpoy, ‘Mountain and Sea: Settlement and Economy in Late Antique Lycia, Isauria and North Central Anatolia’ (University of Oxford 2018). 2 For example, see contributions in S. Kingsley, M. Decker (eds.), Economy and Exchange in the East Mediterranean During Late Antiquity. Proceedings of a Conference at Somerville College, Oxford - 29th May, 1999 (Oxford 2001); W. Bowden, L. Lavan, C.

The 23-episode serial (soap opera of sorts) is based on Farhat Ishtiaq's novel and inspired by a Nasir Turabi ghazal. Notwithstanding the craze it generated in Pakistan, the serial was broadcast to popular acclaim in India, the Middle East, Europe, and the United States. Humsafar's leading stars, Fawad Afzal Khan and Mahira Khan, instantly turned into mass media icons in the world beyond Pakistan. In this class we will explore how classical lyrical poetry and Urdu novel's melodrama contour the aesthetic parameters of Urdu serials in general and Humsafar in particular. We will delve into how issues of gender and sexuality in modern South Asia are tempered by women's "reformist" literature springing from the traditions of Nazir Ahmed, Ashraf Ali Thanavi, and A.R. Khatoon. We will also study theories of reception—especially the reception of Fawad Khan in India and Pakistan. In this vein, we will address the ways in which India and Pakistan share the ground of popular culture in spite of nationalist divides.

  • Reused Hindu-Buddhist Panels in a Muslim Graveyard at Ziarat, Talash Valley,Lower Dir
    Reused Hindu-Buddhist Panels in a Muslim Graveyard at Ziarat, Talash Valley,Lower Dir FAWAD KHAN Abstract The Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Province is fortunately very rich in archaeological remains and very often one can hear about the chance discovery of underground structures, sculptures, coins, pottery, and figurines etc. at various areas. However, this abundance of cultural assets is slowly and gradually disappearing due to various reasons of which the clandestine diggings and illegal occupation of ancient sites are the most noteworthy. In every exploration report of the archaeologist we see that certain Hindu and Buddhist period abandoned sites are presently occupied by the construction of mosques, houses, or the community graveyard. In this connection the Muslim graveyard of the Ziarat village is one of the best examples.
