Reconstructing Minoan Dining Practice and Sociopolitical Organization in Neopalatial Households and Palaces RECONSTRUCTING MINOAN DINING PRACTICE AND SOCIOPOLITICAL ORGANIZATION IN NEOPALATIAL HOUSEHOLDS AND PALACES A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Micaela Carignano May 2018 © 2018 Micaela Carignano RECONSTRUCTING MINOAN DINING PRACTICE AND SOCIOPOLITICAL ORGANIZATION IN NEOPALATIAL HOUSEHOLDS AND PALACES Micaela Carignano, Ph. D. Cornell University 2018 Food is among the most symbolically potent materials with which humans interact because it is simultaneously biologically necessary and socially constructed. Nevertheless, studies of Minoan Crete, as in other areas of the Bronze Age Mediterranean, fail to acknowledge this dual nature of food. Instead, most current scholarship on Minoan food is divided into two distinct camps: studies of subsistence focus on the nutritional qualities of food, and studies of feasting invoke its role in elite social organization. The result of this dichotomy is that while scholars have been able to list the ingredients in the typical Minoan’s diet and have been quick to identify sumptuous banquets at palaces, tombs, and religious sites, little attention is paid to the practices of cooking and eating in Minoan homes. This dissertation addresses this lacuna by analyzing the evidence of cuisine and dining etiquette at four Late Minoan IB domestic sites. Through a functional analysis of ceramic vessels and close examination of architectural layout, I investigate what kinds of foods were cooked, what cooking techniques were used, how diners interacted with the food and with each other, and how household layout reflected commensality behaviors. Furthermore, this study clarifies the political role of feasting in Neopalatial palaces by comparing the palace evidence to the general system of Minoan commensality gleaned from the case studies. I accomplish this goal by implementing a theoretical model that treats feasting as one end of a spectrum of food-sharing behaviors encompassing the most mundane to the most elaborate meals. Treating meals comparatively allows a closer understanding of the experience of the diners, who would have judged a meal’s value against all those they had eaten previously. Thus, I consider the intentions of the hosts and the messages received by the guests. As a result, my analysis of Minoan cuisine and reevaluation of palatial feasts sheds light on the functions of the palaces themselves, and the sociopolitical systems that they upheld through their banquets. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Micaela completed her undergraduate studies at Washington University in St. Louis, where she earned a B.A. summa cum laude with a double major in Archaeology and Classics. As a doctoral student at Cornell University, she studied Bronze Age Crete, ceramics, feasting, and archaeology of everyday life and the domestic sphere. During her studies, she has participated in excavations in Crete, Cyprus, mainland Greece, and Mississippi. v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am extremely grateful to the many people who have helped me during the completion of this project. First I would like to thank my committee chair, Sturt Manning, for always pushing me to work harder. Sturt’s unfailing ability to see where my work was heading and what must come next was crucial to my understanding of the full scope of my ideas. I am also indebted to my committee members, Lori Khatchadourian and Caitlín Barrett, for their invaluable comments. Lori’s sharp attention to organization and style have done wonders for my writing, and Caitie’s grammar lessons and bibliographic suggestions have been both helpful and encouraging. I must also thank the other faculty in the Cornell Department of Classics for making my six years in Ithaca a fascinating if exhausting experience. In particular, my thanks go to the Director of Graduate Studies, Eric Rebillard, who has made a point of checking on me to make sure I was on track with my work. Lastly, I offer my deepest thanks to my parents and my husband, whose support of my academic pursuits has never faltered, regardless of my own complaints. vi TABLE OF CONTENTS BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH .......................................................................................................... v LIST OF FIGURES ........................................................................................................................ x LIST OF TABLES ........................................................................................................................ xii CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION ................................................................................................. 15 Cuisine as an alternative way to study ancient food ................................................................. 20 CHAPTER 2: BACKGROUND ON FEASTING AND THE MINOAN PALACES ................. 26 Introduction ............................................................................................................................... 26 Identifying feasts ....................................................................................................................... 27 Tombs and Sanctuaries ............................................................................................................. 29 Palace feasts: conflicting interpretations and insufficient evidence ......................................... 32 Architecture: the Minoan Hall and the Central Court ............................................................... 41 Ceramics: the puzzle of the conical cup, and other “drinking” vessels .................................... 44 The foods at the feast: assessing past availability from limited evidence ................................ 50 Feasting and sociopolitical organization ................................................................................... 57 Conclusions: where to go from here?

    Alexandra Salichou The mobility of goods and the provisioning of buildings ٭within the Late Minoan IB settlement of Kato Zakros Abstract The street networks of Minoan urban sites were primary used for the communication and circulation of the people within the settlement, as well as for the mobility of the goods and products that either covered the daily needs of the inhabitants or were part of the economic life of the community. Focusing on the Neopalatial settlement of Kato Zakros, this paper aims to examine the significance of its street network in the political economy of the settlement and in the domestic economy of individual buildings. Certain issues will be raised, associated with the categories of the goods that were mobilised, the means of such mobilisation and the distances that had to be covered; in that perspective, we will also examine the features that the road network had (or should have had) in order to facilitate this transportation, and to what extent the internal organization of the buildings took into account their provisioning needs. A general brief discussion will follow on the formation processes of the street system at Kato Zakros, with references to the neighbouring Neopalatial town of Palaikastro. Keywords: Far East Crete, Zakros, Prehistory, Bronze Age, architecture, street system, street network, Neopalatial, settlement In early preindustrial settlements, extensive and well-planned street systems are considered to be a key criterion for the identification of their urban character; in fact, advanced street networks

Arrive at the Corinth Canal for a brief stop and then continue on to the Acropolis of Corinth. Acro-corinth is the citadel of Corinth. It is situated to the southwest of the ancient city and rises to an elevation of 1883 ft. [574 m.]. Today it is surrounded by walls that are about 1.85 mi. [3 km.] long. The foundations of the fortifications are ancient—going back to the Hellenistic Period. The current walls were built and rebuilt by the Byzantines, Franks, Venetians, and Ottoman Turks. Climb up and visit the fortress. Then proceed to the Ancient city of Corinth. It was to this megalopolis where the apostle Paul came and worked, established a thriving church, subsequently sending two of his epistles now part of the New Testament. Here, we see all of the sites associated with his ministry: the Agora, the Temple of Apollo, the Roman Odeon, the Bema and Gallio’s Seat. The small local archaeological museum here is an absolute must! In Romans 16:23 Paul mentions his friend Erastus and • • we will see an inscription to him at the site.

  • A Great Minoan Triangle: the Changing
    SCRIPTA MEDITERRANEA, Vol. VI (1985) A GREAT MINOAN TRIANGLE: THE CHANGING CHARACTER OF PHAISTOS, HAGIA TRIADHA, AND KOMMOS DURING THE MIDDLE MINOAN IB-LATE MINOAN III PERIODS Philip Betancourt Kommos, Hagia Triadha, and Phaistos hold many of the clues to the historical interpretation of the Messara in the second millennium B.C. I have benefited from discussions with numerous persons in the formation of these observations, especially my Italian colleague Vincenzo La Rosa. Phaistos, at the western end of the fertile Messara Plain, is strategically situated to administer the plain's rich agricultural production. Hagia Triadha is on the last hill between Phaistos and the Libyan Sea. Kommos, located to the south, lies at an excellent harbour near a good fresh water spring, with a productive hinterland of small plots and hills. The preeminent position of these three sites in the second millennium may be contrasted with the situation in earlier times. The first known settlement of this part of Crete dates to the Final Neolithic.(1) Phaistos and Kommos were already settled by this period, along with many other small raised hills used as open village sites. The earliest habitation of Hagia Triadha is less well known, but certainly by the Early Bronze Age it was settled as well because its residents were buried in two nearby tholos tombs (Banti 1930-31). Before Middle Minoan IB, we have little archaeological evidence to single out these three sites as among the most important sites of southern Crete. It is possible we are misguided by the clearing and levelling operations of MM I-II that may have destroyed much of the earlier remains, but it is clear that wealth was shared more generally within the Messara in EM and MM than it was in later times.

  • Late Bronze Age Kommos
    SCRIPTA MEDITERRANEA, Vol. VI (1985) LATE BRONZE AGE KOMMOS: IMPORTED POTTERY AS EVIDENCE FOR FOREIGN CONTACT L. Vance Watrous After nine years of excavation (1), it has become apparent that the site of Kommos on the south coast of Crete was not another Minoan palace centre. Rather, it is a major port site which fed the nearby urban centre at Phaistos. Consequently, the sequence of imports at the site assumes considerable historical interest. The geographical range and number of imported trade items at Kommos is, to my knowledge, unmatched at any Aegean site excavated since World War I. The purpose of this paper is to describe the imported Bronze Age vessels at Kommos, and to suggest some of the broader implications of these finds. For the present my remarks should be regarded as provisional. Kommos is located at a natural harbour site, about an hour's walk from the palatial settlement at Phaistos. Excavation at the site since 1976 has concentrated on three sectors: the settlement on the hilltop and on the hillside, and the monumental complex below to the south. The total number of foreign vessels found in Middle Minoan (MM) contexts at Kommos is, according to Professor P. Betancourt, no more than a dozen. There are two jug fragments, probably from Cyprus, from an MM IB context, a Cypriote White Painted IV juglet from an MM III level, and a Nippled Ewer from Thera or Melos, also from an MM III deposit. The number of imported vases from LM I contexts at Kommos is relatively small. An important exception to this situation is a Late Minoan (LM) IB deposit of vases which fell down into the southern staircase area of Building J in the lower complex.

  • From Small States to Universalism in the Pre-Islamic Near East
    REVOLUTIONIZING REVOLUTIONIZING Mark Altaweel and Andrea Squitieri and Andrea Mark Altaweel From Small States to Universalism in the Pre-Islamic Near East This book investigates the long-term continuity of large-scale states and empires, and its effect on the Near East’s social fabric, including the fundamental changes that occurred to major social institutions. Its geographical coverage spans, from east to west, modern- day Libya and Egypt to Central Asia, and from north to south, Anatolia to southern Arabia, incorporating modern-day Oman and Yemen. Its temporal coverage spans from the late eighth century BCE to the seventh century CE during the rise of Islam and collapse of the Sasanian Empire. The authors argue that the persistence of large states and empires starting in the eighth/ seventh centuries BCE, which continued for many centuries, led to new socio-political structures and institutions emerging in the Near East. The primary processes that enabled this emergence were large-scale and long-distance movements, or population migrations. These patterns of social developments are analysed under different aspects: settlement patterns, urban structure, material culture, trade, governance, language spread and religion, all pointing at population movement as the main catalyst for social change. This book’s argument Mark Altaweel is framed within a larger theoretical framework termed as ‘universalism’, a theory that explains WORLD A many of the social transformations that happened to societies in the Near East, starting from Andrea Squitieri the Neo-Assyrian period and continuing for centuries. Among other infl uences, the effects of these transformations are today manifested in modern languages, concepts of government, universal religions and monetized and globalized economies.

  • Heraklion (Greece)
    Research in the communities – mapping potential cultural heritage sites with potential for adaptive re-use – Heraklion (Greece) The island of Crete in general and the city of Heraklion has an enormous cultural heritage. The Arab traders from al-Andalus (Iberia) who founded the Emirate of Crete moved the island's capital from Gortyna to a new castle they called rabḍ al-ḫandaq in the 820s. This was Hellenized as Χάνδαξ (Chándax) or Χάνδακας (Chándakas) and Latinized as Candia, the Ottoman name was Kandiye. The ancient name Ηράκλειον was revived in the 19th century and comes from the nearby Roman port of Heracleum ("Heracles's city"), whose exact location is unknown. English usage formerly preferred the classicizing transliterations "Heraklion" or "Heraclion", but the form "Iraklion" is becoming more common. Knossos is located within the Municipality of Heraklion and has been called as Europe's oldest city. Heraklion is close to the ruins of the palace of Knossos, which in Minoan times was the largest centre of population on Crete. Knossos had a port at the site of Heraklion from the beginning of Early Minoan period (3500 to 2100 BC). Between 1600 and 1525 BC, the port was destroyed by a volcanic tsunami from nearby Santorini, leveling the region and covering it with ash. The present city of Heraklion was founded in 824 by the Arabs under Abu Hafs Umar. They built a moat around the city for protection, and named the city rabḍ al-ḫandaq, "Castle of the Moat", Hellenized as Χάνδαξ, Chandax). It became the capital of the Emirate of Crete (ca.

Haggis) The Early Iron Age (c. 1200-700 B.C.) on Crete is a period of transition, comprising the years after the final collapse of the palatial system in Late Minoan IIIB up to the development of the polis, or city-state, by or during the Archaic period. Over the course of this period, significant changes occurred in settlement patterns, settlement forms, ritual contexts, and most strikingly, in burial practices. Early Iron Age burial practices varied extensively throughout the island, not only from region to region, but also often at a single site; for example, at least 12 distinct tomb types existed on Crete during this time, and both inhumation and cremation were used, as well as single and multiple burial.
