  • The Uluburun Shipwreck – a Dendrochronological Scandal
    The Uluburun Shipwreck – a Dendrochronological Scandal During the Late Bronze Age a trading ship was wrecked off the promontory of Kaş, near Uluburun, in southwestern Turkey. Work on its excavation began in 1984 and the wreck has proved to be a gift to archaeologists. Its cargo included Mycenaean and Cypriot pottery, Canaanite storage jars filled with resin, copper and tin ingots, tools, fishing equipment, weapons, stone artefacts, gold and silver jewellery and a unique gold scarab bearing the name of the Egyptian queen Nefertiti. For more details, photographs and bibliography see online articles by the Institute of Nautical Archaeology on the “Bronze Age Shipwreck Excavation at Uluburun” and “Continuing Study of the Uluburun Shipwreck Artifacts”. As all their contents sank together, shipwrecks like this are veritable “time- capsules”. Excepting occasional problems involving antiques or possible antiques, rich multi-cultural cargoes like that of Uluburun provide invaluable evidence for refining the relative archaeological chronologies of neighbouring regions. Shipwrecks also hold the promise of offering absolute dates for their cargoes, if timbers from the ship can be reliably cross-dated with a well established dendrochronology. In 1996 Peter Kuniholm, Director of the Aegean Dendrochronology Project at Cornell University announced (in preliminary form) a result for Uluburun, in a article published in the prestigious journal Nature (Kuniholm et al. 1996, 782): Wood found as part of the cargo on Kaş/Uluburun shipwreck has a last preserved ring at 1316 BC; other finds include Mycenaean pottery from Greece (the most recent material present is early Late Helladic IIIB; J. B. Rutter, personal communication), and a unique gold scarab of Nefertiti, wife of Akhenaten, pharaoh of Egypt.

  • Direct Evidence of Primary Glass Production in Late Bronze Age Amarna, Egypt*
    Archaeometry 53, 1 (2011) 58–80 doi: 10.1111/j.1475-4754.2010.00521.x DIRECT EVIDENCE OF PRIMARY GLASS PRODUCTION IN LATE BRONZE AGE AMARNA, EGYPT* M. SMIRNIOU Department of Conservation and Scientific Research, The British Museum, Great Russell Street, London WC1B 3DG and TH. REHREN Institute of Archaeology, University College London, 31–34 Gordon Square, London WC1H 0PY This paper presents direct archaeological evidence for the primary production of glass at the LBA site of Tell el-Amarna, in the form of numerous finds of semi-finished glass. The diagnostic microstructural and chemical composition of these finds is presented alongside macroscopi- cally similar finds, of shapeless lumps of finished white glass. The semi-finished glass was found to contain numerous inclusions of residual quartz and newly formed lime-rich crystal phases, but no added colorant. However, several samples of semi-finished glass have antimony oxide levels comparable to those of finished white glass, suggesting that the opacifier was added to the initial glass-making batch. The results are discussed in comparison with the evidence for glass-making from Qantir – Pi-Ramesse, identifying some close technical simi- larities, which indicate that the same technological processes were used at both sites for the production of glass. KEYWORDS: GLASS, GLASS-MAKING, EGYPT, LATE BRONZE AGE, AMARNA, ELECTRON MICROPROBE ANALYSIS INTRODUCTION Glass and glass workshops in the LBA Near East and Egypt There is abundant evidence that glass was being produced and worked during the Late Bronze Age (LBA), as attested by the numerous glass artefacts that have been found in Mesopotamia, Egypt and the Eastern Mediterranean.

    THE MODERNIZATION OF THE OTTOMAN NAVY DURING THE REIGN OF SULTAN ABDÜLAZİZ (1861-1876) by DİLARA DAL A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Centre for Byzantine, Ottoman and Modern Greek Studies Department of Classics, Ancient History and Archaeology College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham April, 2015 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. ABSTRACT The main focus of this study is to examine the modernization of the Ottoman navy during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz, exploring naval administration, education, and technology. Giving a summary of the transformation of shipbuilding technologies and bureaucratic institutions of the Ottoman naval forces between 1808 and 1861, it analyses the structure of the Ottoman navy, its level of development in comparison to previous periods of time, and the condition of the vessels making up the naval fleet from 1861 to 1876. It also intends to evaluate the character of existing administrative structures at the outset of Abdülaziz’s reign in 1861 and the nature of subsequent changes, including structural reorganization of the Imperial Naval Arsenal, the Ministry of Marine, and the Naval Academy, as well as advancements in military training and seafaring; all within the context of the impact of these changes on the military, political, and economic condition of the Empire during the reign of Sultan Abdülaziz.

  • Uluburun – the Discovery and Excavation of the World’S Oldest Known Shipwreck
    http://akroterion.journals.ac.za ULUBURUN – THE DISCOVERY AND EXCAVATION OF THE WORLD’S OLDEST KNOWN SHIPWRECK N Fawcett & J C Zietsman (University of Stellenbosch) The oldest and most exciting shipwreck ever discovered is that of a 15 metre Syro- Palestinian trading vessel whose cargo was sighted on the sea-bed by a sponge diver off a promontory called Uluburun, near Kas, on the south Turkish coast. The ship dates from about 1300 BC. According to Wachsmann (1998:xi) “The Uluburun shipwreck is without doubt the single most significant key to understanding Bronze Age seafaring”, and Bass (1998:49) adds that “few if any Bronze Age excavations in the past 50 years have been more important than the Uluburun shipwreck.” 1. Background The mainstream of nautical development that was to flow throughout ancient history arose not in the river-oriented civilisations of Mesopotamia or Egypt but in the open waters of the Eastern Mediterranean around the beginning of the second millennium BC (Casson 1971:30). Men had ventured beyond the shelter of their shores long before this date, in log rafts, perhaps, or some form of reed bundle boat, followed by dugouts with planks added on both sides to give a bigger freeboard (Johnstone 1980:58). By the third millennium the Egyptians had learned to build craft with edge-joined planks sewn together with twine, as has been shown by the discovery of 12 wooden boats buried beside the funerary enclosures of the earliest kings of Egypt at Abydos, dating to c. 3000 – 2700 BC (Haldane 1992:12), and the famous Cheops ship of c.

Whether created by transforming historic buildings, whether contemporary and new design products, museums play a key role in terms of the image and attractiveness of the city they are located in. This study investigates the relation that the museums in Istanbul have established with the city in the context of image. The method employed is to first introduce the theoretical context of the subject based on literature review; to analyze the selected museums in terms of the city-museum interaction and to evaluate the selected museums within the context of the contributions they make to the image of Istanbul by descriptive methodology. As a result, the contribution of the museums on the city and the contribution of the city on the museums have been demonstrated and the varying and symbiotic nature of this relationship has been emphasized. Keywords: museum, city, image, Istanbul, architecture. Introduction Aalst and Boogaarts (2002) indicate that museums As an important part of the social and cultural life, around the world are repositioning themselves and this the museums are landmarks of the city.

Ingram Nautical Archaeology Program, Department of Anthropology, Texas A&M University Abstract: The Late Bronze Age shipwreck at Uluburun (late 14th century BC) was discovered off the southwest coast of Turkey in 1982. Thousands of beads of vitreous material were found at the site, including approximately 75,000 faience beads and 9,500 glass beads. This paper offers an intro- duction to the faience and wound glass beads found at Uluburun, with an emphasis on manufac- ture and their role aboard the ship. Bead forms and styles represented at Uluburun were relatively simple and quite common at archaeological sites throughout the Late Bronze Age Levant. There is evidence that several of the simpler types of the faience and glass beads were carried on the ship as items of trade. More complex forms, in contrast, probably represent the personal belongings of the crew or passengers aboard the ship. Keywords: Uluburun, glass, faience, beads, Late Bronze Age In 1982, a Late Bronze Age shipwreck The Uluburun shipwreck also yielded was discovered off the southwestern tens of thousands of beads.
