Tercan ilkça tarihi boyunca, corafi özelliklerinin de etkisiyle birbirine komu kavimler, devletler ve hatta kültürler arasnda bir snr bölgesi olduu gibi, ayn zamanda bu kültürler arasnda bir geçit, bir köprü olma özellii tam tr. “lkça Tarihinde Tercan ve Yakn Çevresi” konulu yüksek lisans tezinde, elde bulunan yazl kaynaklar ve arkeolojik veriler bir arada deerlendirilmi, Tercan’n Eskiça tarihi, kantlaryla birlikte belirli bir metot dâhilinde ana hatlaryla yazlmaya çallm tr. Böylelikle, hem Eskiça boyunca siyasi açdan hangi egemen güçlerin kontrolü altnda kalm olabilecei, hem de kültürel anlamda bu egemen güçlerin bölgeyi ne oranda etkileyebildikleri sorular ortaya konmutur. ABSTRACT Tercan is the township of Erzincan, located in the Eastern Anatolia Region, in the Upper Euphrates basin of the region, which has a strategic importance with its location to the natural gates. During the Ancient History, also with the effect of its geographical properties, Tercan formed a border region between the neighboring tribes, countries and even cultures. Moreover this, it formed a passage, or a bridge with its situation amongst the neighboring cultures. In this master thesis titled “lkça Tarihinde Tercan ve Yakn Çevresi”, written sources and archaeological evidences considered together and the main lines of the Ancient History of Tercan tried to composed with a certain method. Thus, we can put forward the questions of “which ruling powers controlled the region and what is the level of their cultural influence on the region during the ancient history”. ÖNSÖZ “lkça Tarihinde Tercan ve Yakn Çevresi” konulu tez çalmasnda, corafi ksm üzerinde özellikle ayrntl durulmu ve corafi yap çou boyutuyla genelden (Kuzeydou Anadolu Bölgesi) özele (Tercan ve yakn çevresi) doru bir sra izlenerek betimlenmitir. Böylece daha sonraki bölümlerde adndan çokça söz edeceimiz yer adlar ve yer ekilleri olabildiince netletirilmeye çallm tr. Bir baka deyimle mekân (olaylarn geçtii zemini) ayrntl anlatarak, zaman ve insan etkenlerini bunun üzerine oturtmak amaçlanmtr. Çalmam zda konuda bütünlüü salamak kaygsyla Tercan ve yakn çevresi dnda, Özellikle Erzurum, Erzincan, kimi zaman Kars ya da Malatya veya Van kesimleri ile ilgili birtakm bilgiler verilmitir. Ancak bu, çalmann corafi kapsamnn dna çk ld anlamna gelmemelidir. Çünkü özellikle prehistorik devirlerden söz ederken, balantlar görebilmek, bir takm kültürel etkileimleri açklayabilmek için corafi kapsamn belli ksmlarda geniletilmesi gerekmitir. Bununla birlikte lkça’da Tercan’ az ya da çok etkilemi olan veya etkilemi olmas muhtemel olaylara ve kantlara, hangi bölgede olursa olsun deinilmeye çallm tr. Böylelikle Prehistorik Çalardan, Roma Egemenliinin sonuna kadar olan zaman dilimi içerisinde Tercan’ n durumunun incelendii çalmamzn son bölümünde ise, 2005 ylnda Doç.

MÖ 53 yılında Syria’ya proconsul olarak atanan Romalı General Marcus Licinius Crassus, bir süre sonra Part seferi hazırlıklarına başlamıştır. MÖ 53 yılında sefere çıkan Crassus, Carrhae’de büyük bir hezimete uğramış, kendisi ve oğlu öldürülmüş, lejyon sancağı Part ordusu tarafından ele geçirilmiştir.

It Is well written and researched and introduces a very interesting new coin. However, I don't agree with Bedouklan's attribution to Tigranes I on the basis of the inscription. The use of C instead of Z In the BACIAEcoC is a late innovation—and the title "PhilheUene" points to a later date. I think it probably is from an obscure mint for Tigranes III [20-8 B.C.]. I don't claim to be an expert on such things and would like to hear from others. The earliest use of C for sigma Z that I can find is on the coins of Phraates III who ruled according to BMC from B.C. 70-57. Somewhat later (38 B.C.) C is used exclusively in Parthian coin inscriptions. I find it strange that Tigranes I and III though separated by almost a century should use the same letters and titles. The use of the title philhellene is not conclusive in dating this coin to 123-90 B.C.

  • Persian Royal Ancestry
    GRANHOLM GENEALOGY PERSIAN ROYAL ANCESTRY Achaemenid Dynasty from Greek mythical Perses, (705-550 BC) یشنماخه یهاشنهاش (Achaemenid Empire, (550-329 BC نايناساس (Sassanid Empire (224-c. 670 INTRODUCTION Persia, of which a large part was called Iran since 1935, has a well recorded history of our early royal ancestry. Two eras covered are here in two parts; the Achaemenid and Sassanian Empires, the first and last of the Pre-Islamic Persian dynasties. This ancestry begins with a connection of the Persian kings to the Greek mythology according to Plato. I have included these kind of connections between myth and history, the reader may decide if and where such a connection really takes place. Plato 428/427 BC – 348/347 BC), was a Classical Greek philosopher, mathematician, student of Socrates, writer of philosophical dialogues, and founder of the Academy in Athens, the first institution of higher learning in the Western world. King or Shah Cyrus the Great established the first dynasty of Persia about 550 BC. A special list, “Byzantine Emperors” is inserted (at page 27) after the first part showing the lineage from early Egyptian rulers to Cyrus the Great and to the last king of that dynasty, Artaxerxes II, whose daughter Rodogune became a Queen of Armenia. Their descendants tie into our lineage listed in my books about our lineage from our Byzantine, Russia and Poland. The second begins with King Ardashir I, the 59th great grandfather, reigned during 226-241 and ens with the last one, King Yazdagird III, the 43rd great grandfather, reigned during 632 – 651. He married Maria, a Byzantine Princess, which ties into our Byzantine Ancestry.

  • The Site of Tigranokerta: Status Quaestionis
    Acta Ant. Hung. 56, 2016, 293–314 DOI: 10.1556/068.2016.56.3.2 MICHAŁ MARCIAK THE SITE OF TIGRANOKERTA: STATUS QUAESTIONIS Summary: This paper gives an overview of all major identifications of the site of Tigranokerta, the fa- mous foundation of the Armenian king, Tigranes II (the Great, ca. 95‒55 BCE). Firstly, the paper pre- sents ancient literary evidence; secondly, it discusses all major locations of Tigranokerta suggested to date (Siirt, Silvan, Arzan, Diyarbakιr, Tell Abad, and Kιzιltepe); and finally it reaches its own conclu- sions. It appears that in the current state of research, it is Arzan which is the most likely candidate for the site of Tigranes II’s new capital. The paper also engages with the latest archaeological excavations in the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic, and takes issue with the identification of the site near Shahbulagh as the foundation of Tigranes the Great. Key words: Tigranokerta, Armenia, Parthia, Tigranes the Great, Mesopotamia, Arzan, Strabo, Tacitus INTRODUCTION As late as 1903, the eminent British historian Bernard W. Henderson called the iden- tification of Tigranokerta “the time-worn controversy”.1 However, since Henderson used those words, much has been written about the location of Tigranokerta, the famous foundation of perhaps the greatest Armenian king ever, Tigranes II (ca. 95–55 BCE), also known as Tigranes the Great.2 Many scholars have concluded that without proper This paper is part of my research project financed by the National Science Centre in Poland (UMO-2011/03/N/HS3/01159).

  • Alberto M. Simonetta
    ELECTRUM * Vol. 15 Kraków 2009 Alberto M. Simonetta THE COINAGE OF THE SO-CALLED PARTHIAN “DARK AGE” REVISITED The problem of the attribution of the different coin series to the Parthian kings whose names are recorded either by classical sources or by documents contemporary with the coins issued during the years that David Sellwood has aptly named “the Parthian Dark Age” is still an unsettled one. Since I published my last paper on the subject (Simonetta 2001), at least two important papers have been published (Assar 2006b; Vardanyan 2006) and, as these provide some signifi cant new evidence and as I am not convinced by their proposals, a fresh discussion of the whole problem may be useful; moreover the new evi- dence makes it necessary also to make some changes in my own previous conclusions. As I think that a correct method in the approach to any problem is essential and that this has been all too often at fault in many authors’ discussions where pre-conceived attributions have been taken for granted or more or less debatable assumptions by previ- ous authors have been taken as solid groundwork on which to build further hypotheses, I shall fi rst outline the methodological approach that I shall follow, then I shall examine the available evidence without any reference to previous opinions, including my own, and fi nally try to reach some conclusions. On matters of method and principles I shall fi rst stress that, when tackling a controversial issue, the correct method is fi rst to analyse the evidence without any reference to previous hypotheses by any author, however, well qualifi ed as he can be.

  • Conversion of Armenia
    THE CONVERSION OF ARMENIA TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH HORACE HART, PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY THE CONVERSION OF ARMENIA TO THE CHRISTIAN FAITH BY W. ST. CLAIR-TISDALL, M.A., C.M.S. AUTHOR OF 'THE RELIGION OF THE CRESCENT,' ETC. ' Te Martyrum candidatus laudat exercitns: Te per orbem terrarnm sancta confitetur Ecclesia. Tu Rex Gloriae, Christe I '-Te Deum. THE RELIGIOUS TRACT SOCIETY 56 PATERNOSTER ROW AND 65 ST. PAUL'S CHURCHYARD [A /l n'ghts reserved J PREFACE DURING the last few years the world ha~ witnessed a terribl.e spectacle. We nave seen a Christian nation in Asia, of the same Aryan blood as ourselves, suffering the most cruel wrongs at the hands of the Turks and their confederates, the Kurds. We have seen members of this Christian nation, men and women and little children, massacred in tens qf thousands, and our illustrated papers have presented us with photographic views of some of these terrible scenes. We have read of large numbers dying a martyr's death rather than embrace Islam, and have heard of those who had less courage and faith being driven at the point of the sword to repeat the ,creed of the. Arabian Antichrist. We have beheld some­ thing more strange still - the Christian nations of Europe hampered in their endeavours to put a stop to this state of things by their mutual ·distrust and jealousy of one another. And thus, as we draw near the end of the nineteenth century, our news­ papers are quietly discussing the question whether or not Turkey will succeed in exterminating the 6 PREFACE whole Christian population of her Armenian provinces, or in forcing upon them, at the sword's point, an apostasy worse than death.
