Hydropolitics and Issue-Linkage Along the Orontes River Basin:… 105 Realised in the Context of the Political Rapprochement in the 2000S, Has Also Ended (Daoudy 2013)
Int Environ Agreements (2020) 20:103–121 https://doi.org/10.1007/s10784-019-09462-7 ORIGINAL PAPER Hydropolitics and issue‑linkage along the Orontes River Basin: an analysis of the Lebanon–Syria and Syria–Turkey hydropolitical relations Ahmet Conker1 · Hussam Hussein2,3 Published online: 13 December 2019 © The Author(s) 2019 Abstract The Orontes River Basin is among the least researched transboundary water basins in the Middle East. The few studies on the Orontes have two main theoretical and empirical shortcomings. First, there is a lack of critical hydropolitics studies on this river. Second, those studies focus on either the Turkish–Syrian or Lebanese–Syria relations rather than analysing the case in a holistic way. Gathering both primary (international agreements, government documents, political statements and media outlets) and secondary sources, this paper seeks to answer how could Syria, as the basin hydro-hegemon, impose its control on the basin? This study argues that the lack of trilateral initiatives, which is also refected in academic studies, is primarily due to asymmetrical power dynamics. Accordingly, Syria played a dual-game by excluding each riparian, Turkey and Lebanon, and it dealt with the issue at the bilateral interaction. Syria has used its political infuence to maintain water control vis-à-vis Lebanon, while it has used non-cooperation with Turkey to exclude Tur- key from decision-making processes. The paper also argues that the historical background and the political context have strongly informed Syria’s water policy. Finally, given the recent regional political developments, the paper fnds that Syria’s power grip on the Orontes Basin slowly fades away because of the changes in the broader political context. -

The period under examination is the late medieval period, from the 11th to the 14th centuries, encompassing the time when the region was under the control of various Islamic dynasties and the Crusaders. The archaeology of Le banon has been somewhat neglected over the years, despite its importance for our understanding of the region in the medieval period, mainly because of the civil war (1975-1990), which made excavations and surveys in the country impossible and led to the widespread looting of sites (Hakiman 1987; Seeden 1987; Seeden 1989; Fisk 1991 ; Hakiman 1991; Ward 1995; Hackmann 1998; Sader 2001. -

Ownby Department of Archaeology, University of Cambridge A!&'% "' This review discusses the important results of the petrographic analysis of the Amarna tablets presented by Yuval Goren, Israel Finkelstein, and Nadav Na’aman. Particular attention is given to summarizing some of their key findings, which highlight the poten - tial for scientific analysis of clay objects to provide relevant and otherwise unattainable information on the specifics of human history. This book is a key resource for any individual studying the political relationships between Egypt and the Near East, the historical events of the Late Bronze Age, or the geopolitical layout of the empires and city-states in this region, and offers a promising new approach to ceramic petrography in general. ith Inscribed in Clay: Provenance Study of the petrographically determined provenance can assist in contextual - Amarna Letters and other Ancient Near Eastern izing the written information.

Shifting Networks and Community Identity at Tell Tayinat in the Iron I (Ca
Shifting Networks and Community Identity at Tell Tayinat in the Iron I (ca. 12th to Mid 10th Century B.C.E.) , , , , , , , , Open Access on AJA Online Includes Supplementary Content on AJA Online The end of the 13th and beginning of the 12th centuries B.C.E. witnessed the demise of the great territorial states of the Bronze Age and, with them, the collapse of the ex- tensive interregional trade networks that fueled their wealth and power. The period that follows has historically been characterized as an era of cultural devolution marked by profound social and political disruption. This report presents the preliminary results of the Tayinat Archaeological Project (TAP) investigations of Iron I (ca. 12th to mid 10th century B.C.E.) contexts at Tell Tayinat, which would emerge from this putative Dark Age as Kunulua, royal capital of the Neo-Hittite kingdom of Palastin/Patina/Unqi. In contrast to the prevailing view, the results of the TAP investigations at Early Iron Age Tayinat reveal an affluent community actively interacting with a wide spectrum of re- gions throughout the eastern Mediterranean. The evidence from Tayinat also highlights the distinctively local, regional character of its cultural development and the need for a more nuanced treatment of the considerable regional variability evident in the eastern Mediterranean during this formative period, a treatment that recognizes the diversity of relational networks, communities, and cultural identities being forged in the generation of a new social and economic order.1 -

NANDRIS, M. A., Ph. D. (london). TWO PERIODS IN THE EARLY NEOTHERMAL. It becomes increasingly r.ecessary to give a summary of the significant events which took place in the Near East after the 9th millennium, as the excavated and published material increases. ThP. traits in the S.E. European neolithic which are commonly referred to Near Eastern sources make it necessary to do so, at least with reference to these traits and more especially to figurines. It is not intended to give a complete account of ali the better known characteristics of these Near Eastern cultures, but only to exa some of thc features which seem to acquire or retain importance in their pre mine SU!11ed subsequent diffusion and to comment on their implications. The publication of the figurine material is, here as elsewhere, only partial, not ..lways illustratcd, and sometimes, only general ideas of the quantity and associationt can be obtaincd. however we divide the period for convenience into two broad If divisions of c9000-7000 BC and c7000-5000 BC we can assign the material to various cultural groups within this and sometimes comment more precisely. This procedure may help to establish the perspective necessary to a true appreciation of the back ground to Eastcrn Europe which, lacking it, would be liable to an interpre tation altogether too parochial.

Syllabus for the History of the Phoenicians, ACABS 591.002//491.003 Instructor: Eric Reymond; [email protected] or [email protected] Office Hours: Wed. 12-2 @ Thayer 3155 Meeting Time: Mondays, 4-7 in MLB B134 The Phoenicians were a people who interacted with numerous groups and nations of the Ancient Near East, but whose interactions with peoples of the Mediterranean world are perhaps best known. For students of the Bible, the Phoenicians are commonly associated with the worship of Baal and with Canaanite culture. For students of the classical world, the Phoenicians are commonly associated with sailing, trade, and their alphabet, which they passed to the Greeks and others in the Mediterranean. In later times, the Phoenicians‘ colonies in North Africa fought with Rome for supremacy in the western Mediterranean. Throughout the first millennium B.C.E., Phoenicians and Phoenician culture were portrayed as alien, savage, and barbaric. This course will explore the political and cultural history of the Phoenicians. Especially important will be the early culture of the Phoenician city-states and their interactions with neighboring regions, including ancient Israel; the cultural exchanges between eastern and western Mediterranean regions; and the political conflicts between Carthage and Rome. In addition, the course will attempt to outline how Phoenicians were portrayed by their neighbors: the writers of the Bible, the writers of Greek and Roman history and literature. How these portrayals reflect the Phoenician themselves, as well as the interests and preconceptions of the writers will also be investigated. The course is open to undergraduate and graduate students. NO prior language experience in Phoenician, Greek, Latin, or Hebrew is necessary to take the course. -
