Burcu Erciyas June 2016, 175 pages This thesis aims to investigate astronomical intention of the founders of the city at Kerkenes Dağ through architectural remains and city sculptures. The excavations result suggests the idea that the whole city was planned from an ideal urban concept containing all essential elements with their specified locations. In this study, possible astronomical intentions at Kerkenes is analysed through the examination of structural orientations in relation to the direction of astronomical objects upon the horizon where rising or setting point of prominent celestial bodies take place.

She supported me throughout my thesis with her patience and knowledge whilst allowing me to explore my own way. Her patience and support helped me overcome many crisis situations, and without her encouragement and effort, this thesis would not have been completed. I owe a very important debt to Prof.Dr. Selim Selam from the Department of Astronomy and Space Science at Ankara University. Without him, I would not dare to work on this study subject. His knowledge and wisdom enlighten my way. I owe sincere and earnest thankfulness to Assoc.Prof.Dr. Geoffrey Summers not only for sharing his excavation data with me and pointing me into the right direction, but also for encouraging me from beginning to end of my master journey. His guidance and comments provided me a strong foundation to build my way on it. Finally, I must express my very profound gratitude to my parents and my brother. Your love and supports mean the world to me, which give me wings to fly through my own way, and help me to make my dreams come true. Special thanks go to my whole wonderful family and my dear friends who became my family. The journey is the destination, and thank you all, for every single colours that you bring into my journey. Your existences make life worth living. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS PLAGIARISM ............................................................................................................ iii ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................ iv ÖZ ................................................................................................................................. v DEDICATION ............................................................................................................ vi ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS ....................................................................................... vii TABLE OF CONTENTS .......................................................................................... viii LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................... x LIST OF FIGURES ..................................................................................................... xi CHAPTER 1.

  • Some Phrygian Monuments
    256 SOME PHRYGIAN MONUMENTS. SOME PHRYGIAN MONUMENTS. [PL. XXVI.—XXIX.] OF the five Phrygian monuments now published from the drawings of Mr. A. C. Blunt, No. 4 on PL XXVIII. may be assigned to an early period of Phrygian history. It has been already pub- lished by Steuart, Anc. Monum.; but like all his drawings, this is very incorrect and gives an inaccurate idea of the original.1 The monument is at Yapuldak (see the map in last number of this Journal). There was at this place a town or fortification of some kind on the top of a hill, which rises about 200 feet above the plain. The western side of the hill is a precipice of rock, and on all other sides it is very steep. On the western side an underground staircase cut in the rock leads down to the plain: a similar one at Pishmish Kalessi has already been men- tioned above, p. 6. Near this staircase there is a doorway leading into a small rock-chamber, from which another door in the opposite wall leads into a second chamber, larger than the first. At the back of the second chamber a door admits into a third chamber, and in the back of this third chamber there is a door or window which looks out over the precipice to the west. One can step out through this window and stand on a ledge about eighteen inches wide; and this is the only way to get a near view of the carved front which is now given according to Mr.

The earliest for of warfare was brute muscle power with those throwing the most accurate stone or swinging the heaviest club enjoying the advan- tage. Over time, people realized that a sharp rock or stick was more effective than a dull one, so how to create and maintain that sharp edge came to be a major goal in weapon development. Using rocks as a projectile became more effective when someone realized that they could go further and faster when thrown by a long piece of leather. The development of the sling created the ability to harass and harm one’s enemy at great range, hurting him while keeping oneself safe. Slingers became important units in ancient armies and men talented in its use were in demand as mercenaries. In order to maintain a steady supply of projectiles of proper size and weight, rocks were supplanted by pellets made of baked clay and later of lead.

  • Phases of the Moon by Patti Hutchison
    Phases of the Moon By Patti Hutchison 1 Was there a full moon last night? Some people believe that a full moon affects people's behavior. Whether that is true or not, the moon does go through phases. What causes the moon to appear differently throughout the month? 2 You know that the moon does not give off its own light. When we see the moon shining at night, we are actually seeing a reflection of the Sun's light. The part of the moon that we see shining (lunar phase) depends on the positions of the sun, moon, and the earth. 3 When the moon is between the earth and the sun, we can't see it. The sunlit side of the moon is facing away from us. The dark side is facing toward us. This phase is called the new moon. 4 As the moon moves along its orbit, the amount of reflected light we see increases. This is called waxing. At first, there is a waxing crescent. The moon looks like a fingernail in the sky. We only see a slice of it. 5 When it looks like half the moon is lighted, it is called the first quarter. Sounds confusing, doesn't it? The quarter moon doesn't refer to the shape of the moon. It is a point of time in the lunar month. There are four main phases to the lunar cycle. Four parts- four quarters. For each of these four phases, the moon has orbited one quarter of the way around the earth.

Location: (1) the Moon should appear within the ABI field of regard (FOR); (2) the center of the Moon should be at least 0.013 radians away from the Earth limb for all the ABI bands; and (3) the edge of the Moon should be at least 0.002 radians away from the MESO frame boundary at the east-west direction. Frequency per month: 2-4 trending events per lunar phase. Phase Angle Range: (1) the highest priority two lunar trending events shall have the smallest absolute phase angle as possible between Earth and Moon, but not less than 5.0 degrees. These two trending events shall be on opposite sides of the Earth. (2). The other two lunar trending events with relatively lower priority shall have an absolute phase angle as close as possible to 60 degrees between Earth and Moon, but not more than 90.0 degrees.
