Archaeology of Western Anatolia: Cross Roads of the Ancient World the University of Washington Archaeology of Western Anatolia: Cross Roads of the Ancient World The University of Washington Course: NEAR E 296/ARCHY 269 Instructor: Stephanie Selover Term: Spring 2017 Office Hours: Wednesdays, 1-3PM Room: SAV 156 Office: Denny M220E Time: T/Th 1:30-3:20 Email: [email protected] Course Description: Ancient western Anatolia is a diverse and often understudied region. Its complexity is largely due to its unclear place in the world of archaeology: is the region part of Anatolia or Greece? Should Near Eastern or Classical archaeologists study the region? What place does it have in the Achaemenid/Persian empire? There are no clear- cut answers to these questions, for the western coast of modern Turkey has connections to many different cultural spheres, as well as its own, often overlooked, vibrant history and cultures. The study of ancient western Anatolian cultures also brings up other questions. How do mythology and archaeology work together? How does our modern understanding of ancient cultures affect the archaeologies of these cultures? The cultures of ancient western Anatolia remain in the modern imagination through the myths and tales of Troy, King Midas, the Gordion Knot, Ephesus, etc. While not realizing it, many of ‘Western Civilization’s’ myths originate from this region. This class is designed to provide students with a general survey of the archaeology of civilizations present along the western coast of Anatolia and their often- neglected place in the identities and histories of the ancient Near Eastern and Classical world. The time range covered will span from the Early Bronze Age until the conquest of Alexander the Great, in 333 BCE. The class will cover both historical and archaeological aspects of the cities of Troy and Ephesus, as well as the civilizations of the Phrygians, Lydians, Carians, Lycians and the Ionians in Anatolia. Additionally, the class will have four classes devoted to uncovering the complex and easily misunderstood relationship of Western Anatolia and its Anatolian, Aegean, Persian and Greek identities. The class will provide students with an understanding of archaeological practice and literature and how archaeological sites are published. To this end, students will read selections of excavation reports each week, in addition to overviews of the civilizations studied. We will have weekly discussions of these publications regarding the style, content, strengths and weaknesses. 1 Learning Objectives: By the end of this course, students are expected to learn: • An introductory understanding of the practices of archaeology in general and in Western Anatolia in particular • A knowledge of the recent archaeological developments in modern Turkey • A knowledge of the various cultures and cultural practices of ancient western Anatolia • The various considerations necessary in the comparison of textual evidence to archaeological evidence • How to use mythological stories to understand the history behind them • How to critically read archaeological publications Course Format: Each week, one class will be devoted to a lecture on the history of a region, with a second class devoted to discussion of the archaeology of an exemplary site of that region. Each class is expected to be a discussion rather than a straight lecture by the instructor, so students are responsible for all readings before the start of class and are expected to actively contribute. At times, the class will be split into smaller groups to further discuss the themes of the class and then each group will present their collected ideas. Each week, every student is required to consider and thoughtfully answer one of two to three given discussion questions based on the weekly readings and lectures on the discussion board on the class website. This forum will allow students to contemplate the themes of the class and perhaps to think of new questions of their own. There are no wrong answers, but students are asked to give thought to their responses. Students may bring in their own experiences as they pertain to the subject. Feel free to be creative. Answers are to be submitted to the instructor on the Canvas site by 10pm each Wednesday. Late answers submitted before the start of class will be given half credit. No credit will be given to submissions after class. Each student is responsible for all assigned readings before the start of class and must be prepared to discuss them. The discussion section of the course will utilize both a voluntary method of question and answers, as well as a Socratic one, where the instructor may choose who will answer the question. Each student will be required to present on one mythological or archaeological subject of their choice, from the subjects covered in class before Week 8. A sign-up sheet will be handed out the first week of class, and will be posted on the class Canvas site. For example, students may find a modern retelling of the ancient story or present an aspect of the archaeological excavations of a site, and present it to the class, using questions to 2 begin a class discussion, such as on how myths affect our modern understanding of a region, and what cultural traits remain in the myth. In addition, there will be four classes devoted to the theme of “Connections.” These classes will focus on the connection between Western Anatolia and four related regions: Anatolia, the Aegean, Greece and Persia. Students will pick one of these topics to present on, and will give a short (10-15 minute) presentation on their findings. Students will speak with the instructor about which aspect of connections they may wish to present on, e.g. burial, architectural, artistic, religious, or cultural similarities. In the second week of the quarter, on April 4, a short map and geography quiz will be given at the start of class. Understanding the geography of the ancient and modern Anatolia is of great importance in order to understand the various cultures and peoples covered in this course. A midterm will be administered in-class at the start of Week 5, on April 25, covering all material from the first five weeks of the course. A final exam will be administered during final’s week, on June 9, covering material from the entire course, with an emphasis on the final five weeks of the course. Prerequisites: This course is open to all students interested in archaeology, anthropology, Classics, or Near Eastern studies. No prior knowledge of these areas is necessary. Required Reading and Attendance: This class does not have a textbook. The readings from this course come from a variety of journals and book chapters. All readings will be made available in .pdf form on the class Canvas website. The assigned readings are to be completed by each student before the start of the class. Staying on top of the readings will maximize a student’s learning experience and prepare them for discussions. It also allows the students to ask relevant questions during class. Readings are subject to change as determined by the instructor, with at least one week's notice. The assigned readings are to be completed by each student before the start of the class.

Surfing the web, checking emails, checking Facebook, online shopping, etc. is prohibited. Such activity is disruptive to the individual, the instructor, and to the remainder of the class. However, I would highly encourage students to take notes in class by hand, as numerous studies have shown handwritten notes to be far more useful for students than typed notes. If I do find a student using a laptop for any purpose other than note taking, the privilege of using the laptop in class will be revoked after one warning.

    Georgy Kantor Lycia et Pamphylia: A Social and Institutional History The project which I am proposing to undertake is a social and institutional history of the Roman province of Lycia and Pamphylia, from the process of establishment of Roman rule in the region in the late Republic and the Julio-Claudian period to the coming of Christianity and the separation of the constituent parts of the province in the early fourth century AD. The project aims at utilising different kinds of evidence – documentary, archaeological, numismatic, literary. Several factors combine to make such a study worthwhile. The isolated nature of the region, separated as it is by mountain ranges from the rest of Anatolia, and the fact that, with a very brief interruption, it has been a single administrative unit for more than two centuries, from the principate of Claudius to at least AD 312, allow us to treat it as a meaningful object of regional history. But below this unity there were striking distinctions between its different parts. In the course of my doctoral work on Roman and local law in the provinces of Asia Minor, I have found preliminary evidence to indicate that the ways in which Pamphylia and Lycia were governed by Rome were different in many crucial aspects. My project will thus provide an opportunity to study two models of Roman rule within one province, and it is at this level that we can best understand how Roman imperial structures worked and contribute to the ongoing discussion (re-opened by recent works of S. Dmitriev and C.

  • Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics
    Princeton/Stanford Working Papers in Classics The eighth-century revolution Version 1.0 December 2005 Ian Morris Stanford University Abstract: Through most of the 20th century classicists saw the 8th century BC as a period of major changes, which they characterized as “revolutionary,” but in the 1990s critics proposed more gradualist interpretations. In this paper I argue that while 30 years of fieldwork and new analyses inevitably require us to modify the framework established by Snodgrass in the 1970s (a profound social and economic depression in the Aegean c. 1100-800 BC; major population growth in the 8th century; social and cultural transformations that established the parameters of classical society), it nevertheless remains the most convincing interpretation of the evidence, and that the idea of an 8th-century revolution remains useful © Ian Morris. [email protected] 1 THE EIGHTH-CENTURY REVOLUTION Ian Morris Introduction In the eighth century BC the communities of central Aegean Greece (see figure 1) and their colonies overseas laid the foundations of the economic, social, and cultural framework that constrained and enabled Greek achievements for the next five hundred years. Rapid population growth promoted warfare, trade, and political centralization all around the Mediterranean. In most regions, the outcome was a concentration of power in the hands of kings, but Aegean Greeks created a new form of identity, the equal male citizen, living freely within a small polis. This vision of the good society was intensely contested throughout the late eighth century, but by the end of the archaic period it had defeated all rival models in the central Aegean, and was spreading through other Greek communities.

  • Zoroastrian Elements in the Syncretism That Prevailed in Asia Minor Following the Achaemenian Conquests KERSEY H
    Zoroastrian Elements in the Syncretism that Prevailed in Asia Minor Following the Achaemenian Conquests KERSEY H. ANTIA Introduction Since the total population of Zoroastrians in the entire world today is a meager 130,000 at best, it is hard to conceive that Zoroastrianism not only prospered in Iran but also acted as a very prominent factor in the syncretism that prevailed in Asia Minor from the time it became an integral part of the Achaemenian empire to the downfall of the Sasanian empire. It is generally acknowledged that Semitic Armenia was Persianised in the Achaemenian times, a process which lasted up to the Sasanian times. Strabo. (XI.532) reports that Mithra and Anahita were especially worshiped by the Armenians. It was also in the Achaemenian times that the Jews first came into contact with the Persians. The Zoroastrian concepts heretofore unknown to the Jews such as satan, “the angel of wisdom”, and “the holy spirit” became common features of Jewish beliefs, along with many others. Moreover, the Achaemenian kings welcomed Greek scientists, physicians and Phoenician explorers and artisans at their courts. The conquest of Iran by Alexander the Great further exposed the Greeks to Iranian influence just as it exposed Iran to Greek Influence. Alexander married an Iranian princess, Roxane and he arranged for a mass marriage of 50,000 of his Greek soldiers with Iranian women at Susa after his return from India. Such a mass phenomenon must have left its mark on the fusion of the two races. With the Greeks came their gods represented in human forms, a concept so sacrilegious to the Iranians.

  • Poison King: the Life and Legend of Mithradates the Great, Rome's
    Copyrighted Material Kill em All, and Let the Gods Sort em Out IN SPRING of 88 BC, in dozens of cities across Anatolia (Asia Minor, modern Turkey), sworn enemies of Rome joined a secret plot. On an appointed day in one month’s time, they vowed to kill every Roman man, woman, and child in their territories. e conspiracy was masterminded by King Mithradates the Great, who communicated secretly with numerous local leaders in Rome’s new Province of Asia. (“Asia” at this time referred to lands from the eastern Aegean to India; Rome’s Province of Asia encompassed western Turkey.) How Mithradates kept the plot secret remains one of the great intelli- gence mysteries of antiquity. e conspirators promised to round up and slay all the Romans and Italians living in their towns, including women and children and slaves of Italian descent. ey agreed to confiscate the Romans’ property and throw the bodies out to the dogs and crows. Any- one who tried to warn or protect Romans or bury their bodies was to be harshly punished. Slaves who spoke languages other than Latin would be spared, and those who joined in the killing of their masters would be rewarded. People who murdered Roman moneylenders would have their debts canceled. Bounties were offered to informers and killers of Romans in hiding.1 e deadly plot worked perfectly. According to several ancient histo- rians, at least 80,000—perhaps as many as 150,000—Roman and Italian residents of Anatolia and Aegean islands were massacred on that day. e figures are shocking—perhaps exaggerated—but not unrealistic.

Firstly, it will focus on a more precise determination of the geographic limits of the region, which are not clear and quite ambiguous in the ancient sources. Secondly, the author will thoroughly analyze the formation of the province itself and its progressive Romanization. Finally, political organization of Cilicia within the Roman empire in its different forms throughout time will be taken into account.

Nam., De Reditu suo, I, 72) This paper attempts a systematic approach to the study of the Roman province of Cilicia, whose formation process was quite long and characterized by a complicated sequence of historical and political events. The main question is formulated drawing on – though in a different geographic context – the words of G. Alföldy1: can we consider Cilicia a „typical” province of the Roman empire and how can we determine the peculiarities of this province? Moreover, always recalling a point emphasized by G. Alföldy, we have to take into account that, in order to understand the characteristics of a province, it is fundamental to appreciate its level of Romanization and its importance within the empire from the economic, political, military and cultural points of view2.

  • Greek-Anatolian Language Contact and the Settlement of Pamphylia
    CHRISTINA SKELTON Greek-Anatolian Language Contact and the Settlement of Pamphylia The Ancient Greek dialect of Pamphylia shows extensive influence from the nearby Anatolian languages. Evidence from the linguistics of Greek and Anatolian, sociolinguistics, and the histor- ical and archaeological record suggest that this influence is due to Anatolian speakers learning Greek as a second language as adults in such large numbers that aspects of their L2 Greek became fixed as a part of the main Pamphylian dialect. For this linguistic development to occur and persist, Pamphylia must initially have been settled by a small number of Greeks, and remained isolated from the broader Greek-speaking community while prevailing cultural atti- tudes favored a combined Greek-Anatolian culture. 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND The Greek-speaking world of the Archaic and Classical periods (ca. ninth through third centuries BC) was covered by a patchwork of different dialects of Ancient Greek, some of them quite different from the Attic and Ionic familiar to Classicists. Even among these varied dialects, the dialect of Pamphylia, located on the southern coast of Asia Minor, stands out as something unusual. For example, consider the following section from the famous Pamphylian inscription from Sillyon: συ Διϝι̣ α̣ ̣ και hιιαροισι Μανεˉ[ς .]υαν̣ hελε ΣελυW[ι]ιυ̣ ς̣ ̣ [..? hι†ια[ρ]α ϝιλ̣ σιι̣ ọς ̣ υπαρ και ανιιας̣ οσα περ(̣ ι)ι[στα]τυ ̣ Wοικ[. .] The author would like to thank Sally Thomason, Craig Melchert, Leonard Neidorf and the anonymous reviewer for their valuable input, as well as Greg Nagy and everyone at the Center for Hellenic Studies for allowing me to use their library and for their wonderful hospitality during the early stages of pre- paring this manuscript.

REIN TAAGEPEFU University of California. Irvine Area changes of about 30 best known empires and states are compiled and tabulated. Superimposed and juxtaposed graphs (size versus time) help to vis- ualize the relative size and location in time of these empires. Size-time integral, maximum stable size, adulthood date, and duration are defined operationally and are listed for 20 empires. A criterion is given for distinctness of successive empires. The size-time integral is a direct measure of an empire’s impact on history insofar as that impact depends on sheer size and duration. The integral is largest for the Chinese Hsia-Shang, Egyptian New, Old, and Middle, Assyrian New, and Hittite empires. A world-wide territorial concentration index is tabu- lated. It increases during the period considered from 0.08 to 1.4% of the world dry land area. The general objective of this study is to analyze recurring patterns in growth and decline of empire areas throughout history. The specific objective of this paper is to report and to analyze detailed data for the period ranging from 3000 to 600 B.C.
