Since the col- lapse of the Communist bloc, several publication series on the Black Sea have appeared in the west. For various reasons most have fallen by the wayside. It has been difficult for us as well, as one of the pioneers of a region hitherto little known in the west. The idea for this series arose ten years ago in con- versation with a newly-established, small but dedicated publishing team in Bradford, Loid Publishing. What was really the first volume appeared from them in 1994, entitled Colloquenda Pontica, publishing papers from a work- shop on the Black Sea held at the 95th Annual Meeting of the Archaeological Institute of America, Washington DC, in December 1993. After that issue, publication of the series was taken over by Oxbow (Oxford), with the current title, and after three issues we changed our pub- lisher to Brill, thanks to its former Classics Acquisitions Editor, Job Lisman, where we are happy to remain with a highly qualified team producing beauti- ful volumes. The Editorial and Advisory Boards and I are so grateful to Michiel Klein Swormink (the current Classics Senior Acquisitions Editor at Brill) and Ms Gera van Bedaf (our desk editor at Brill) for their hard work and dedication. Ms van Bedaf nurtures each volume with genuine love. I am so grateful to the Editorial and Advisory Boards, as well as to the indi- vidual authors, for their invaluable help and support, but especially to three people, Prof. Sir John Boardman, Dr John Hind and Dr James Hargrave, with- out whose help, encyclopaedic knowledge and enthusiasm the series would never have come to light, nor have enjoyed a successful life and future. Gocha R. Tsetskhladze Series Editor London/Melbourne This page intentionally left blank PREFACE The Phanagoria Project, which was based at Royal Holloway University of London, was a joint excavation and publication project with the Institute of Archaeology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, with me as Director on the British side and Dr V.D. Kuznetsov as my co-director on the Russian side, to investigate the ancient Tean colony of Phanagoria on the Taman peninsula, opposite the eastern tip of the Crimea, in southern Russia.1 It began in 1995 with a preliminary visit to the peninsula by Dr C. Morgan, Dr K. Arafat and myself. A full field season (seven weeks) took place in July–August 1996, but financial difficulties prevented the British team from undertaking field work in 1997, and in summer 1998 permitted only a visit by a small team for a short study season and an underwater survey of Phanagoria conducted jointly with the Nautical Archaeology Society and colleagues from Krasnodar.2 These financial reverses, the mountain of unpublished material from many previous seasons of excavation, and the current stress of western scholarship on publication and analysis over new excavation, led to the reorientation of the project towards publication of the fruits of previous excavations as well as the details of our own activities in 1996 and 1998. The current volume is the first of three to appear in Colloquia Pontica under the general title ‘Phanagoria 1 For recent general publications on the site, see G.R. Tsetskhladze,‘Phanagoria: Metropolis of the Asiatic Bosporus’. In Greek Archaeology without Frontiers, Athens, 2002, 129–150; V.D. Kuznecov, ‘Phanagoreia.

  • The Role of Greek Culture Representation in Socio-Economic Development of the Southern Regions of Russia
    European Research Studies Journal Volume XXI, Special Issue 1, 2018 pp. 136 - 147 The Role of Greek Culture Representation in Socio-Economic Development of the Southern Regions of Russia T.V. Evsyukova1, I.G. Barabanova2, O.V. Glukhova3, E.A. Cherednikova4 Abstract: This article researches how the Greek lingvoculture represented in onomasticon of the South of Russia. The South Russian anthroponyms, toponyms and pragmatonyms are considered in this article and how they verbalize the most important values and ideological views. It is proved in the article that the key concepts of the Greek lingvoculture such as: “Peace”, “Faith”, “Love”, “Heroism”, “Knowledge”, “Alphabet”, “Power”, “Charismatic person” and “Craft” are highly concentrated in the onomastic lexis of the researched region. The mentioned above concepts due to their specific pragmatic orientation are represented at different extend. Keywords: Culture, linguoculture, onomastics, concept anthroponym, toponym, pragmatonim. 1D.Sc. in Linguistics, Professor, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation. 2Ph.D. in Linguistics, Associate Professor, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation. 3Lecturer, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation, E-mail: [email protected] 4Ph.D., Associate Professor, Department of Linguistics and Intercultural Communication, Rostov State University of Economics, Rostov-on-Don, Russian Federation.

  • Classical and Hellenistic Glass Workshops from Rhodes
    Classical and Hellenistic glass workshops from Rhodes Pavlos Triantafyllidis* Among the various crafts of Rhodes, glass making1 undoubtedly occupied an important position during the Classical and Hellenistic periods in the thriving commer- cial and economic activity of the island2. The arguments for a flourishing glassworking production on the island of Rhodes are mainly based on the typological and chrono- logical study of many finds, and on workshop evidence which came to light during the fifty-four years of rescue excavations of the 22nd Ephorate of Prehistorical and Classical Antiquities, mainly at the edge of the plain, in the Pano;ı “Akran (Diodoros 20.83.1-4), the town of Rhodes, as well as in the excavations of the then Italian Archaeological Service3 in Ialysos and Camiros. 1. The end of the sixth century and the fifth century BC The local glass production of Rhodes seems to have begun in the last quarter of the 6th century BC with the manufacture of opaque core-formed vessels (fig. 1), but also of opaque rod-formed head-shaped and figurine-pen- dants (fig. 2) and of multi-coloured beads of similar manufacture to the core-formed vessels found mainly in Fig. 1 — Core-formed amphoriskoi.

  • The Displacement, Extinction and Genocide of the Pontic Greeks. 1916-1923
    H-War The Displacement, Extinction and Genocide of the Pontic Greeks. 1916-1923. Discussion published by Jesko Banneitz on Monday, February 1, 2016 Type: Conference Date: February 25, 2016 to February 26, 2016 Location: Germany Subject Fields: Area Studies, Holocaust, Genocide, and Memory Studies, Islamic History / Studies, Nationalism History / Studies, Political History / Studies "The Displacement, Extinction and Genocide of the Pontic Greeks. 1916-1923." International Conference Berlin, Germany 25/26 February 2016 Over the last years, the genocide committed against the Armenians has received more and more scientific and popular attention. Thanks to a growing number of international scientists devoted to the elucidation and reappraisal of the Armenian-Ottoman past the historical processes leading to the extinction of the majority of the Armenian population within the Ottoman Empire have been traced and investigated. However, as recent international research has emphasized, the Armenian genocide by the Young-Turkish government has to be understood as only one chapter of an overall campaign of the Young-Turkish and Kemalist government against the non-Muslim (and later non-Turkish) communities. Besides the Armenians, particularly Greek communities in Asia Minor were affected most in terms of forced migration and atrocities, committed in the interests of specific Young-Turkish and Kemalist visions of the Ottoman space between 1913 and 1923. In this regard, the governmental campaign reached its violent climax in the genocide of the Greek communities in the Pontic area at the shores of the Black Sea. Albeit the killing of the Pontic Greek has become increasingly prominent in Anglo-American historical research, it still continues to be a desideratum within the European field of research.

    Numerical Simulation of Propagation of the Black Sea and the Azov Sea Tsunami Through the Kerch Strait L. I. Lobkovsky1, R. Kh. Mazova2,*, E. A. Baranova2, A. M. Tugaryov2 1Shirshov Institute of Oceanology, Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russian Federation 2Nizhny Novgorod State Technical University n. a. R. E. Alekseev, Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Federation *e-mail: [email protected] The present paper deals with the potential strong tsunamigenic earthquakes with the sources localized in the Black and Azov seas at the entrance and exit of the Kerch Strait, respectively. Since, at present time, the tsunami hazards are usually assessed for the critical earthquake magnitude values, potential strong earthquakes with a magnitude M = 7 are studied. The seismic sources of elliptical form are considered. When choosing the source location in the northeast of the Black Sea, the most seismically dangerous areas of the basin under consideration are allowed for. Numerical simulation is carried out within the framework of the nonlinear shallow water equations with the dissipative effects taken into account. Two possible scenarios of tsunami propagation at the chosen source locations are analyzed. The wave characteristics are obtained for a tsunami wave motion both from the Black Sea through the Kerch Strait to the Azov Sea. The symmetrical problem for a tsunami wave propagation from the Azov Sea through the Kerch Strait to the Black Sea is also considered. Spectral analysis of the tsunami wave field is carried out for the studied basin. The wave and energy characteristics of the tsunami waves in the area of the bridge across the Kerch Strait are subjected to the detailed examination and assessment.

  • Contextualizing the Archaeometric Analysis of Roman Glass
    Contextualizing the Archaeometric Analysis of Roman Glass A thesis submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati Department of Classics McMicken College of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts August 2015 by Christopher J. Hayward BA, BSc University of Auckland 2012 Committee: Dr. Barbara Burrell (Chair) Dr. Kathleen Lynch 1 Abstract This thesis is a review of recent archaeometric studies on glass of the Roman Empire, intended for an audience of classical archaeologists. It discusses the physical and chemical properties of glass, and the way these define both its use in ancient times and the analytical options available to us today. It also discusses Roman glass as a class of artifacts, the product of technological developments in glassmaking with their ultimate roots in the Bronze Age, and of the particular socioeconomic conditions created by Roman political dominance in the classical Mediterranean. The principal aim of this thesis is to contextualize archaeometric analyses of Roman glass in a way that will make plain, to an archaeologically trained audience that does not necessarily have a history of close involvement with archaeometric work, the importance of recent results for our understanding of the Roman world, and the potential of future studies to add to this. 2 3 Acknowledgements This thesis, like any, has been something of an ordeal. For my continued life and sanity throughout the writing process, I am eternally grateful to my family, and to friends both near and far. Particular thanks are owed to my supervisors, Barbara Burrell and Kathleen Lynch, for their unending patience, insightful comments, and keen-eyed proofreading; to my parents, Julie and Greg Hayward, for their absolute faith in my abilities; to my colleagues, Kyle Helms and Carol Hershenson, for their constant support and encouragement; and to my best friend, James Crooks, for his willingness to endure the brunt of my every breakdown, great or small.

It is now the time and my great pleasure to acknowledge each of them and their efforts here. My long-time advisor John Fine set me on this path. John’s recovery, ten years ago, was instrumental in directing my plans for doctoral study. My parents, like many well-intended first generation immigrants before and after them, wanted me to become a different kind of doctor. Indeed, I made a now-broken promise to my father that I would follow in my mother’s footsteps, and study medicine. But then, I was his daughter, and like him, I followed my own dream. When made, the choice was not easy. But I will always be grateful to John for the years of unmatched guidance and support. In graduate school, I had the great fortune to study with outstanding teacher-scholars. It is my committee members whom I thank first and foremost: Pamela Ballinger, John Fine, Rudi Lindner, Müge Göcek, Mary Kelley, and Barbara Reeves-Ellington.

    Journal of Greek Linguistics 9 (2009) 187–194 brill.nl/jgl Discussion Note Why Greek is one of Th e World’s Major Languages* Brian D. Joseph Department of Linguistics, Th e Ohio State University, Columbus, OH 43210-1298, USA E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Th e inclusion of Greek in Bernard Comrie’s edited volume Th e World’s Major Languages (Croom Helm, 1987; second edition, Routledge, 2008) prompts the question of why Greek was so des- ignated. Two arguments supporting the editor’s choice are presented here by way of assessing the place and status of Greek among languages of the world, off ering some thoughts on the notion of “major language”, and considering the question of whether Greek constitutes “one language”. Keywords diachrony; dialects; language unity; major language ; Nobel Prize; sociology of language In 1987, Croom Helm Publishers of England brought out a book entitled Th e World’s Major Languages , edited by Bernard Comrie. It was updated recently and a second edition has now appeared, being published in 2008 by Routledge. Th e book contains descriptions of 40 languages considered by the editor to be “major languages”. Th e 40 languages (grouped here roughly by geography and language family) are Malay, Tagalog, Korean, Japanese, Burmese, Chinese, Vietnamese, Th ai, Tamil, Turkish, Arabic, Hebrew, Hausa, Swahili, Yoruba, Finnish, Hungarian, Bengali, Hindi, Sanskrit, Pashto, Persian, Czech, Polish, Russian, Serbo-Croatian, Slovak, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Spanish, Latin, Danish, Norwegian, Swedish, Dutch, English, German, and Greek. * Preliminary versions of this discussion note were presented at the University of Patras (March 31, 2007) and St.

  • Bosporos and Chersonesos in the 4Th-2Nd Centuries BC
    Bosporos and Chersonesos in the 4th-2nd Centuries BC Evgenij A. Molev The political relations between the two leading states in Taurica – Bosporos and Chersonesos – have for long attracted the attention of scholars. However, the conclusions reached about the nature of the relations during various historical periods differ widely due to the almost complete lack of evidence from the literary sources.

On the basis of this, a number of researchers have come to the conclusion that the first con- tact concerned the struggle for Theodosia where they opposed each other.
