Used with permission. iv oi.uchicago.edu/OI/DEPT/PUB/SRC/CHD/P/CHDP.html List of Abbreviations PREFACE Several new procedures have been introduced in this volume of the Chicago Hittite Dictionary. In view of the uncertainty of the number of volumes which will comprise the first half of the Chicago Hit- tite Dictionary (letters A-K), we have abandoned the attempt to number the volumes. We ask users to refer to the previous volume as “Chicago Hittite Dictionary (CHD) L-N.” The present volume will con- tain only lemma words beginning with the letter P. In the preface to Chicago Hittite Dictionary L-N (page xiv) we anticipated the publication of a new sign list for Hittite texts by Chr. Rüster and E. Neu. This work (Hethitisches Zeichenlexikon, Wiesbaden 1989, abbreviation: HZL) has now appeared and is the subject of many published reviews.1 The editors of the Chicago Hittite Dictionary have decided to adopt the system of transliteration proposed there. As published reviews by Beal and Hoffner indicate, members of our staff share some of the questions of other reviewers about details of the system. But we do not think that these reservations justify a refusal to conform to the new standard. It is inevitable that future readers of the Chicago Hittite Dictionary will be caused some inconvenience and confusion by the older readings employed in the L-N volume. But the alternative — to ignore the new system and retain our older format — seems to us less desirable. As the Preface to the L-N volume itself shows, we had already modified the system used by Johannes Friedrich in his grammar and dictionary, as in turn he had modified the earlier system employed by the first generation of Hittitologists. In volume L-N we used a fraktur-hyphen (Ú) for two different purposes: (1) to mark clitic bound- aries and (2) to break normalized Hittite and Akkadian words at the end of a line. Beginning with vol- ume P we have introduced a new symbol, a tilde-hyphen (~) to break normalized Hittite and Akkadian words and Sumerograms at the end of a line, and we have retained the fraktur-hyphen in its primary role of marking clitic boundaries. It is our hope that the use of this new symbol will reduce confusion in cases where an end-of-line division in a Hittite word might look like a clitic boundary. With the production of this P volume the Chicago Hittite Dictionary staff has moved further in the process of computerization. Not only are the drafts of dictionary articles produced and revised on com- puters, but the photocomposition process, which was previously performed by an outside agency, is now being accomplished in the Oriental Institute’s own Publications Department, under the able supervision of Thomas Holland and Thomas Urban. We express our appreciation to the curators and directors of the archaeological museums whose Hittite tablets we have been allowed to collate and photograph: Engin Özgen and ∫lhan Temizsoy (Ankara), Alpay Pasinli, Veysel Donbaz, and Fatma Yıldız (Istanbul), Liane Jakob-Rost, Evelyn and Horst Klengel (Berlin), Christopher Walker (London), Pierre Amiet (Paris), William W. Hallo (Yale University, New Haven), Erle Leichty and Åke Sjöberg (University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia), and William M. Sumner and J. A. Brinkman (The Oriental Institute, Chicago). We also thank Cem Karasu for making collations in Ankara. To the University of Chicago and its previous and current presidents, Hanna H. Gray and Hugo Son- nenschein, and to the Oriental Institute and its director, William Sumner, who provided partial financial support and a wide variety of services and resources which furthered our work, we express our thanks. 1Among the reviews which have come to our attention are: W. Farber in Mundus 26 (1990) 219-221, H. C. Melchert in Kratylos 36 (1991) 122-126, R. Beal in JAOS 112 (1992) 127-129, H. Freydank in BiOr 49 (1992) 450-453, H. A.

Some Thoughts on the History of North-Western Lycia in the Late Bronze and Iron Ages Summary: The present article contains observations on the invasion of Lycia by the Hittite king Tudhaliya IV as described in the Yalburt inscription. The author questions the commonly found identification of the land of VITIS/Wiyanwanda with the city of Oinoanda on account of the problems raised by the reading of the sign VITIS as well as of archaeological and strategical observations. With the aid of Lycian and Greek inscriptions the author argues that the original Wiya- nawanda/Oinoanda was located further south than the city commonly known as Oinoanda situated above İncealiler. These insights lead to a reassessment of the Hittite-Luwian sources concerning the conquest of Lycia.

  • Albanian Families' History and Heritage Making at the Crossroads of New
    Voicing the stories of the excluded: Albanian families’ history and heritage making at the crossroads of new and old homes Eleni Vomvyla UCL Institute of Archaeology Thesis submitted for the award of Doctor in Philosophy in Cultural Heritage 2013 Declaration of originality I, Eleni Vomvyla confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Signature 2 To the five Albanian families for opening their homes and sharing their stories with me. 3 Abstract My research explores the dialectical relationship between identity and the conceptualisation/creation of history and heritage in migration by studying a socially excluded group in Greece, that of Albanian families. Even though the Albanian community has more than twenty years of presence in the country, its stories, often invested with otherness, remain hidden in the Greek ‘mono-cultural’ landscape. In opposition to these stigmatising discourses, my study draws on movements democratising the past and calling for engagements from below by endorsing the socially constructed nature of identity and the denationalisation of memory. A nine-month fieldwork with five Albanian families took place in their domestic and neighbourhood settings in the areas of Athens and Piraeus. Based on critical ethnography, data collection was derived from participant observation, conversational interviews and participatory techniques. From an individual and family group point of view the notion of habitus led to diverse conceptions of ethnic identity, taking transnational dimensions in families’ literal and metaphorical back- and-forth movements between Greece and Albania.

  • From Oppression to Freedom
    FROM OPPRESSION TO FREEDOM John Jay and his Huguenot Heritage The Protestant Reformation changed European history, when it challenged the Roman Catholic Church in the 16th century. John Calvin was a French theologian who led his own branch of the movement. French Protestants were called Huguenots as a derisive Conflict Over the term by Catholics. Protestant Disagreements escalated into a series of religious wars Reformation in seventeenth-century France. Tens of thousands of Huguenots were killed. Finally, the Edict of Nantes was issued in 1598 to end the bloodshed; it established Catholicism as the official religion of France, but granted Protestants the right to worship in their own way. Eighty-seven years later, in 1685, King Louis XIV issued the Edict of Fontainebleau, which reversed the Edict of Nantes, and declared the public practice of Protestantism illegal. Louis regarded religious pluralism as an obstacle to his achieving complete power over the French people. By his order, Huguenot churches were demolished, Huguenot schools were The Revocation of closed, all newborns were required to be baptized as Roman Catholics, and it became illegal for the the Edict of Nantes Protestant laity to emigrate or remove their valuables from France. A View of La Rochelle In La Rochelle, a busy seaport on France’s Atlantic coast, the large population of Huguenot merchants, traders, and artisans there suffered the persecution that followed the edict. Among them was Pierre Jay, an affluent trader, and his family. Pierre’s church was torn down. In order to intimidate him into converting to Catholicism, the government quartered unruly soldiers called dragonnades in his house, to live with him and his family.

It was the victory of liberalism and the constitutional state, a victory which had immediate and phenomenal demographic and social consequences. In 1857, Vienna had a total population of 287,824, of which 6,217 (2.16 per cent) were Jews.

  • Hanigalbat and the Land Hani
    Arnhem (nl) 2015 – 3 Anatolia in the bronze age. © Joost Blasweiler student Leiden University - [email protected] Hanigal9bat and the land Hana. From the annals of Hattusili I we know that in his 3rd year the Hurrian enemy attacked his kingdom. Thanks to the text of Hattusili I (“ruler of Kussara and (who) reign the city of Hattusa”) we can be certain that c. 60 years after the abandonment of the city of Kanesh, Hurrian armies extensively entered the kingdom of Hatti. Remarkable is that Hattusili mentioned that it was not a king or a kingdom who had attacked, but had used an expression “the Hurrian enemy”. Which might point that formerly attacks, raids or wars with Hurrians armies were known by Hattusili king of Kussara. And therefore the threatening expression had arisen in Hittite: “the Hurrian enemy”. Translation of Gary Beckman 2008, The Ancient Near East, editor Mark W. Chavalas, 220. The cuneiform texts of the annal are bilingual: Babylonian and Nesili (Hittite). Note: 16. Babylonian text: ‘the enemy from Ḫanikalbat entered my land’. The Babylonian text of the bilingual is more specific: “the enemy of Ḫanigal9 bat”. Therefore the scholar N.B. Jankowska1 thought that apparently the Hurrian kingdom Hanigalbat had existed probably from an earlier date before the reign of Hattusili i.e. before c. 1650 BC. Normally with the term Mittani one is pointing to the mighty Hurrian kingdom of the 15th century BC 2. Ignace J. Gelb reported 3 on “the dragomans of the Habigalbatian soldiers/workers” in an Old Babylonian tablet of Amisaduqa, who was a contemporary with Hattusili I.

  • Oxford Handbooks Online
    The Late Bronze Age in the West and the Aegean Oxford Handbooks Online The Late Bronze Age in the West and the Aegean Trevor Bryce The Oxford Handbook of Ancient Anatolia: (10,000-323 BCE) Edited by Gregory McMahon and Sharon Steadman Print Publication Date: Sep 2011 Subject: Archaeology, Archaeology of the Near East Online Publication Date: Nov DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780195376142.013.0015 2012 Abstract and Keywords This article presents data on western Anatolia during the Late Bronze Age, wherein it was the homeland of a wide range of states and population groups. The most important and most powerful of these was a group of kingdoms that are attested in Hittite texts as the Arzawa Lands. Most scholars associate the development of these kingdoms with Luwian-speaking populations who had occupied large parts of Anatolia from (at least) the early second millennium BCE. The most enduring link between Anatolia's Late Bronze Age civilizations and their first- millennium-BCE successors is provided by the Lukka people, one of the Luwian-speaking population groups of southwestern Anatolia. They were almost certainly among the most important agents for the continuity and spread of Luwian culture in southern Anatolia throughout the first millennium BCE. Keywords: western Anatolia, Arzawa Lands, Lukka people, Luwian culture In this chapter, the phrase “western Anatolia” encompasses the regions extending along Anatolia’s western and southwestern coasts, from the Troad in the north to Lukka in the south, and inland to the regions stretching north and south of the (Classical) Hermus and Maeander Rivers.
