Pamukkale Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü Yüksek Lisans Tezi Tarih Anabilim Dalı Eskiçağ Tarihi Programı EBRU ACAR DanıĢman: Prof. Dr. Yusuf KILIÇ Temmuz 2019 DENĠZLĠ ÖNSÖZ Beslenme tüm yaĢayan canlıların hayatta kalabilmesi için son derece önem arz eden bir gereksinimdir. Tıpkı diğer canlılar gibi insanoğlu da gerek hayatta kalabilmek gerekse daha refah bir yaĢam sürdürebilmek için çeĢitli besin maddelerine ihtiyaç duymuĢtur. Bu ihtiyaçları ise genel olarak üç aĢamada temin etme yoluna gitmiĢtir. Bunlardan birincisi; yaĢadığı coğrafyada bulunan av hayvanlarını avlayarak, ikincisi; doğada yetiĢen doğal besin kaynaklarını toplayarak, üçüncü ve en önemlisi kabul edilen çeĢitli tarım ürünleri yetiĢtirerek ve bazı hayvanları evcilleĢtirerek sağlamıĢtır. Tarım ürünlerinden ise baĢta besin değeri yüksek ve uygun Ģartlar oluĢturulduğunda uzun süre bozulmadan saklanabilen buğday ve arpa gibi tahıl ürünleri önemli bir yere sahip olmuĢtur. Tahıl grubunun yanı sıra çeĢitli meyve ve sebzelerin yetiĢtirilmesi ile coğrafyaya göre uyum sağlayan deve, at, sığır, koyun, keçi, arı ve hatta domuz gibi hayvanların evcilleĢtirilerek etinden ve bu hayvanlardan elde edilen besin maddelerinden yararlanılmıĢtır. Eskiçağ Anadolu coğrafyasında yaĢayan toplumların beslenme alıĢkanlıklarını ele aldığımız tezimizde; Neolitik Dönemden baĢlayarak M.Ö. 2. bin yılın sonuna kadar geçen süre zarfında arkeolojik çalıĢmalar sonucu elde edilen bulgular, transkripti yapılmıĢ Asurca ve Hititçe çivi yazılı

Dr. Cemil KUTLU Çoruh Havzası’nın tarih öncesi ve tarihi çağları ile ilgili olan bu çalışma, bölgenin sahip olduğu coğrafi konumundan dolayı ayrı bir önem kazanmaktadır. Bölge coğrafyası, tarih öncesi çağlarda insanların yaşaması için gerekli olan tarım alanları, su kaynakları ve bunların oluşturduğu doğal geçitleri bünyesinde barındırmaktadır. Bunun sonucu olarak da çalışma sahası (Yukarı ve Orta Çoruh Havzası/Bayburt, İspir ve Yusufeli) tarih öncesi devirlerde sürekli yerleşmeye sahne olmuştur. Özellikle Son Kalkolitik ve Tunç çağı boyunca varlığını sürdüren Karaz kültürünün etkileri, havzanın yukarı kısmında kendini göstermektedir. Havza, tarihi çağlara Hayaşa Krallığı döneminde (M.Ö. II. binin ortası) geçmiştir. Hayaşalılar’dan bahseden Hitit kayıtları Kuzeydoğu Anadolu ile ilgili en eski belgelerdir. Ayrıca bölgedeki zengin maden kaynakları, Urartu Devleti’nin dikkatini çekmekte gecikmemiştir. Urartu Devleti kuruluş evresini tamamlar tamamlamaz sınırlarını, Çoruh Nehri’nin kaynağında yer alan Diauehi ülkesine kadar genişletmiştir. Tarihi çağlarda bölgede görülen tüm bu siyasi yapılanmalar çalışmada ayrıntılı olarak ele alınmıştır. Ayrıca Çoruh Havzasında yapımına başlanan barajların tamamlanması ile su altında kalacak tarihi ve arkeolojik veriler bu çalışma ile literatüre kazandırılacaktır.

  • Ramos Spoken Word and Ritual Performance Dissertation Final
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Spoken Word and Ritual Performance: The Oath and the Curse in Deuteronomy 27-28 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures by Melissa Dianne Ramos 2015 © Copyright by Melissa Dianne Ramos 2015 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Spoken Word and Ritual Performance: The Oath and the Curse in Deuteronomy 27-28 by Melissa Dianne Ramos Doctor of Philosophy in Near Eastern Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2015 Professor William M. Schniedewind, Chair The composition of Deut 27-28 is shaped by its ritual and performative function and by the narrative device of a script within a speech: the oral and ritual performance of the covenant ceremony by the Levites is framed within the speech-command of Moses. Studies of Deut 28 have largely focused on the textual tradition of this chapter and on its parallels with ancient near eastern treaties, and with the Succession Treaty of Esarhaddon in particular. Many studies view Deut 28 as a collection of isolated units of curse lines disconnected from the ceremonial performance of the covenant ratification ceremony detailed in Deut 27. This is due in part to the commonly held view that chapter 27 is an interpolation and a later addition to the literary unit of 12-26 and 28. However, a re-examination of comparative ancient near eastern evidence and a fresh literary analysis of 27 suggests that chapters 27-28 form a unified whole. A text-centric approach to Deut 28 has left largely unexamined the oral and ritual performance described in Deut 27.

    Eighteen years on the frontiers of Assyria: the Ziyaret Tepe Archaeological Project TIMOTHY MATNEY§ , JOHN MACGINNIS*, DIRK WICKE°, KEMALETTIN KORÖǦLU# § University of Akron, Ohio, USA * British Museum, London, UK ° University of Frankfurt, Germany # University of Marmara, Turkey Abstract This paper reviews the results of the archaeological investigations at Ziyaret Tepe, located on the river Tigris 60 km east of Diyarbakir in southeastern Turkey. Known in antiquity as Tušhan, the site was a provincial capital and garrison town of the Assyrian Empire. While the project originally expected to have only a few years to conduct operations, we were in the end able to work at the site for a period of almost two decades. The approaches involved included surface collection, geo-physical prospection, large-scale excavation, targeted soundings and material, epigraphic and environmental analyses pursued through multiple techniques. The architecture uncovered included the remains of a palace, an administrative building, the defensive wall, a city gate and both high and low status housing. Key finds included cremation burials, an archive of cuneiform texts dating to the end of the empire, another tablet hinting at the existence of a previously unknown language, and evidence for the use of clay tokens in administration in the first millennium BC. Together these finds have helped us to document the occupation and utilisation of ancient Tušhan across the whole span of Neo- Assyrian rule, from its (re-)founding by Ashurnasirpal II in 882 BC to its abandonment as the empire collapsed in 611 BC.

  • I! İlk Tunç Çağı'nın Son Evresinde Anadolu'nun Siyasal Görünümü
    --ır' i .li i! ; i i, İlk Tunç çağı'nın Son Evresinde Anadolu'nun Siyasal Görünümü Turgut Yiğit' Özet: Anadolu'nun henüz tarihsel çağlara girmemiş olduğu ilk Tunç çağı'nın son evresindeki genel siyasal görünümünü ortaya koyabilmek için öncelikle arkeolojik kazıların sonuçlarını göz önünde bulundurmak gerekir. Farklı coğrafi ortamlara ve büyük ölçüde buna bağlı olarak farklı tarihsel gelişim çizgilerine sahip Anadolu'nun söz konusu çağına ilişkin olarak, bazı Mezopotamyalı kralları konu alan yazılı belgelerden edinilen bilgilerin, yapılan kazıların sonuçlarıyla birlikte değerlendirilmesi ile, doğal ve siyasal zorunluluklarla sınırlanmış bölgelerde çevresindeki daha küçük yerleşmeleri kontrol eden bir kentin merkez olduğu beyliklerin bulunduğu genel siyasal görünümden söz edilebilir. Abstract: The Early Bronze Age settlements in Anatolia have to take consideration mostly according to the results of excavations partially been excavated. However, it is possible to assess in general terms the political situation of Anatolia in this period. The Early Bronze III period in Anatolia is characterized by a culture of largely local development. Central, eilstem and south-eastem Anatolia were densely settled areas in the Early Bronze Age III. Fortified towns with small scale urban architecture continued to emerge in traditional centres of economic and political power located in densely popıdated areas of Anatolia, except in the Black Sea region. Considering that some Early Bronze III settlements produced architectural remains which could only be interpreted as palaee coplexes one is tempted to agree with the assesment that city-states dominating the political and economic life in the Anatolia. This also confirmed by writing sources attributed the Akkadian kings. Anadolu'da M.Ö. 3.
