While its work initially focused on the countries of the Mediterranean area and the Near East, today the institute is dedicated to conducting fundamental research around the world with the aim of deepening our understanding of historical cultures. The institute was founded under the name "Instituto di corrispondenza archeologica" by a circle of scholars, artists and diplomats in Rome on 21 April 1829. Its purpose was to study and promote knowledge of ancient monuments and art, epigraphy and topography. In 1833 the institute's headquarters moved to Berlin. In 1871 it was made a Prussian state institution for three years before becoming the Imperial German Archaeological Institute in 1874. Today the institute is a federal agency within the area of responsibility of the Foreign Office. Its head office is situated in Berlin and it maintains several commissions and departments in Germany and abroad. It currently employs about 250 researchers who carry out research in the fields of archaeology and allied sciences. Great importance is attached to the collaboration with colleagues from other countries; a great many projects take place in cooperation with institutions of the host countries. The departments and commissions run large specialised libraries, photo archives and other collections, which are at the disposal of scientists and students. The promotion of young researchers is another key concern of the DAI. The institute promotes scientific dialogue and publicises its work by means of congresses, colloquia and tours. Its research results also appear in numerous publications and the members of the DAI regularly report about their work in the media. More information on the institute's activities can be found on the website: www.dainst.org.

It was just good enough for Jupiter and his gigantic temple. For columns that were 18 metres high the architects needed no more than three drums each; they measured 2.2 metres in diameter. The tem- ple podium is constructed of colossal lime- stone blocks that fit precisely together. The upper layer of the podium, today called the "trilithon", was never completed.

  • Legitimizing German Imperialist Penetration of the Ottoman Empire1
    Visions of Germany in Turkey: Legitimizing German Imperialist Penetration of the Ottoman Empire1 Malte Fuhrmann, Free University Berlin Weighty memories merge with the impressions of the present; to the mind, what was is wed to what is (...) And it is German traces that have engraved themselves deeply upon the classical soil (...)– Paul Lindenberg 19022 On the day we hear the classic call, “Hot sausages, have a glass of beer!” at the train station of Angora, Germany will have its foot in the door in Asia Minor.–Friedrich Dernburg 18923 Hegemonic power, or even the attempt to establish it, is accompanied by a multitude of legitimizing discourses that are shaped both in conscious and subconscious debate with it. These discourses have been subject to considerable attention in the research on nationalism and imperialism since the seventies, in contrast to ‘political’ and macroeconomic interests, which had until then enjoyed the main attention of historians. In the research on German imperialism however, the analysis of legitimizing discourses has so far played a minor part. This is due on the one hand to the special circumstances under which German imperialist expansion took place and to a certain reserve towards discourse analysis among the German academic establishment. 4 In particular, the attempt to establish hegemony over West Asia by employing a policy of ‘pénétration pacifique’ towards the Ottoman Empire, one of the major imperialist projects of the Kaiserreich, has been neglected by historians in this regard. The ‘political’ strategies of the German Empire towards the ‘Eastern Question’ have been and still are a subject of interest, and the economic strategies, especially of renowned German companies such as Krupp, Philip Holzmann, and the Deutsche Bank, were a major focus in the seventies and eighties.

  • Unveiling Baubo: the Making of an Ancient Myth for the Degree Field Of
    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY Unveiling Baubo: The Making of an Ancient Myth A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Field of Comparative Literary Studies By Frederika Tevebring EVANSTON, ILLINOIS December 2017 2 © Copyright by Frederika Tevebring 2017 All Rights Reserved 3 Abstract “Unveiling Baubo” describes how the mythical figure Baubo was constructed in nineteenth-century German. Associated with the act of exposing herself to the goddess Demeter, Baubo came to epitomize questions about concealment and unveiling in the budding fields of archaeology, philology, psychoanalysis and literary theory. As I show in my dissertation, Baubo did not exist as a coherent mythical figure in antiquity. Rather, the nineteenth-century notion of Baubo was mediated through a disparate array of ancient and contemporary sources centered on the notion of sexual vulgarity. Baubo emerged as a modern amalgam of ancient parts, a myth of a myth invested with the question of what modernity can and should know about ancient Greece. The dissertation centers on the 1989 excavation of the so-called Baubo statuettes, a group of Hellenistic votive figurines discovered at Priene, in modern-day Turkey. The group adheres to a consistent and unique iconography: the face of the female figures is placed directly onto their torso, giving the impression that the vulva and chin merge. Based on the statuettes’ “grotesque- obscene” appearance, archaeologist concluded that they depicted Baubo, the woman who greeted Demeter at Eleusis when the goddess was searching for her abducted daughter Persephone. According to late antique Church Fathers, Demeter refused the locals’ offerings of food and drink until Baubo cheered her up by lifting her skirt, exposing herself to the goddess.

Bunun sonucu pek çok seyyah Anadolu’ya ve Batı Anadolu’da bulunan Assos (Behramkale), Troia (İllium, Willusa), Pergamon (Bergama), Ephesos (Efes), Tralleis (Üçgözler), Smyrna (İzmir), Hierapolis (Pamukkale), Sardeis (Sart, Sardis), Priene (Güllübahçe), Miletos (Miletus, Mile), Alexandria Troas (Eski İstanbulluk), Ksanthos (Eşençay) antik kentlerine gelmiştir. Batı Anadolu bölgesi, dünya tarihinde çok önemli antik kentleri içine almaktadır. Bunun yanı sıra kentler Yunan-Roma eserlerine ev sahipliği yapmaktadır. Bir başka önemli faktörde Osmanlı Devleti’nin gerileme döneminde Batı Anadolu bölgesindeki kazıları yabancı kazı ekipleri gerçekleştirmiştir. Kazılarda çıkan eserlerin büyük bir kısmı yurtdışındaki müzelere taşınmıştır ve halen bu müzelerde sergilenmektedirler. İlk arkeolojik kazılar 1873’de Fransız arkeolog Olivier Rayet tarafından yapılmıştır. Onu, Alman Arkeolog Theodor Wiegand' ın 1899 – 1931 arasında yaptığı kazılar takip etmiştir. Fakat kazılar devamlı yapılmamış; zaman zaman savaşlar ve diğer nedenlerle aksamıştır. Günümüzde, Miletos’ta kazılar Almanya Bochum'daki Ruhr Üniversitesi tarafından organize edilmektedir. Yirminci yüzyıl başlarında, yapılan Alman arkeolojik araştırma ve kazıları sonunda hemen hemen tümüyle Güney Agorası için anıt şekilde olan Miletos Agora Kapısı taş taş parçalara ayrılmış; taşlar Almanya'ya taşınmış ve yapı yeniden birleştirilmiştir. Ortaya çıkan bu antik eser Berlin Pergamon Müzesi'nde sergilenmektedir. Koleksiyondaki bazı eserler, Miletos Müzesi’nde, İstanbul Arkeoloji Müzesi ve Louvre Müzesi’nde sergilenmektedir.

  • Ein Bendorfer Jung´ Hinweis Auf Ausst
    1 Powerpoint-Vortrag Mai 2008 von Barbara Friedhofen Der Archäologe Theodor Wiegand – ein Bendorfer Jung´ Hinweis auf Ausstellung 1. Eltern Fotos von den Eltern: Konrad Wiegand, Arzt und Ida Wiegand, geb. Neitzert Theodor Wiegand wurde am Sonntag, dem 30.10.1864 in Bendorf geboren. Er ist der älteste Sohn von Ida Wiegand, geborene Neitzert und des Arztes Konrad Wiegand. Konrad Wiegand hatte in Marburg und Berlin studiert, bevor er nach Abschluss seiner Promotion 1861 als Assistenzarzt in den Heil- und Pflegeanstalten arbeitete. 1863 ließ er sich als praktischer Arzt zuerst in Wiesbaden und dann als Badearzt in Bendorf nieder. Im Oktober 1863 heiratete er Ida Neitzert, Tochter des Fabrikanten Theodor Neitzert. Theodor Neitzert hatte zuerst eine Kalk- und Ziegelbrennerei aufgebaut und stellt ab 1861 feuerfeste Steine (Schamottsteine) her. Aus dieser Fabrik gingen später die späteren Rheinischen Schamott- und Dinaswerke hervor. Dr. Konrad Wiegand war in den Jahren 1869-1874 für die Jacoby´sche Anstalt tätig. 2. Jugend in Bendorf und Wiesbaden Fotos: Wiegand als Kleinkind und als Schüler in Wiesbaden Seinen ersten 10 Lebensjahre wohnte Theodor Wiegand mit seinen Eltern im großväterlichen Haus in Bendorf bis die Familie nach Wiesbaden zog. Theodor Wiegand ging in die evangelische Privatschule in Bendorf. Wiegand ließ sich magisch von der Fabrik des Großvaters anziehen und verbrachte dort viele Stunden. Dabei schwänzte er auch hin und wieder die Schule. Weil er sich mit den Arbeitern so gut verstand, blieben seine Fehltage in der Schule wochenlang geheim, denn keiner der Arbeiter verriet ihn. Die unregelmäßigen Schulbesuche wurden zusätzlich durch viele Kinderkrankheiten unterbrochen. Zitat von Wiegand über seine Heimat aus „Watzinger S.

It is from the Eumenes period. A large hellenistic house is reached by passing through the area where the house of the guard of the door next to it is located and by passing the military storage rooms. This Peristyl house, dated to the first half of the 2nd century BC, is probably II. Eumenes' palace. Mosaic remains by an artist named Hephaistion are found in the north east and north west hall of the Altar room. The next residential space is another house with peristyle, perhaps the palace of Attalos I. The area in the far north east was turned into a kaserna for palace guardianship in the 2nd century BC. Only the foundations of these structures can be seen today. Arsenal Behind another partition wall in the northernmost part of the castle is the arsenal structure built a little deep.
