The archaeological “site” of Licosa is situated in the protected marine area of Santa Maria di Castellabate created since 1972 and representing an early example of a marine park in Italy, in the same area of the National Park of Cilento and Vallo di Diano, and the city of Castellabate, named UNESCO world heritage site since 1998 and included, with its coast, in the list of "most beautiful villages of Italy ". The oldest sources relating to this portion of territory, the area of Licosa, is Licofrone, who in his work the “Cassandra” or “Alexandra”, refers to the mythical Sirens, and to Promontorium Enipeum or Posideion. In the Hellenistic tradition the site of Licosa is connected with Leucosia, one of the three sirens, dead in front of the cape and whose name remains on the island. The structures still visible are situated on the promontory and on island. They are the remains of two buildings, located on two levels, presumably with a rectangular plan, known as “cetariae” and characterized by a thick coating of cocciopesto. Maybe these structures are related with some other artifacts as geometric mosaic green and white, and a series of nurseries for fish farming, located at western cliff of the island. The research aims, also through the study of the geomorphology, to understand the function of such evidence. Alberto Agresti Università degli Studi di Firenze Population strategies and cultural phenomena in North and Central Tuscany from Late Bronze Age to Early Iron Age: continuity and change. Landscape analysis and cultural data. The transition from XI to VIII Century b. C. have a fundamental importance for the ancient Mediterranean history, due to the deep social and cultural changements, and dynamic phenomena that brings to interaction between groups and community, even far one from the other. However, to be in the half with Bronze and Iron Age, in past was often superficially considered in one hand like epigones, and in the other like previews, without giving them an own identity. Is a well known evidence, that in this period can be found most of the traits that will be developed lately, like the funerary rite or the settlement strategy, the exploitation of the natural resources, and the interregional and international relationship. The knowledge of that part of recent protohistory is surely necessary to a right comprehension of the next historical and cultural development, that will bring to form of gentilitial power, in which also that part of territory. in different time and way, partecipate to the protourban phenomenon. The area of the study is totally involved in the etruscan etnogenesis, and the period examined correspond to a not so short phase of changeover from the Protovillanovan culture to the first attestation of Etruscan Orientalizing period. The main interest of this territory between Tirrenian sea, and the Appennino mountains, is his border vocation, with all that means, included a more dynamism and less homogeneity compared with the near areas. The same protourban phenomenon, in that part of peninsula, has different shape and characteristics compared to the ones of the Etruria strictu sensu, and we have observed also landscape restyling, without the presence of big urban centers. Moreover central-north Tuscany has given back, mostly in the last decades, new data trough which is possible a better understanding of the social and cultural phenomena, and a reformulation of the archaeological problematics. The aim of the present paper is to examine, describe and interpret, with the aport of new and recently discoveries, the archaeological data, with a qualitative and quantitative approach, the kind of sites, their distribution and the relationship with the natural resources and the geographical aspects. Through that study we want to contribute in the understanding of the wideness of cultural areas formation, and trade routes, interpreting population strategies and cultural phenomena in a complete and diachronic optic, of of “longue durée”. Zeynep Aktüre Izmir Institute of Technology Ancient theatre architecture as an indication of cultural change in the Mediterranean: a structuralist interpretation inspired from Fernand Braudel's Mediterranean Within the center-periphery model, ancient theatre remains have occasionally been interpreted as signifiers of cultural change in the Mediterranean, as part of a common vocabulary that is thought to be imposed on the subjected peoples in the case of Roman expansion. However, the typology based on Greek-Roman binarism from Vitruvius onwards is insufficient in exploiting this interpretative potential fully. As an example, “Greekness” in some Roman period theaters of Asia Minor may be explained as a form of resistance to cultural Romanization, but “Greekness” in the theaters of the Roman Hispaniae awaits an alternative explanation in the absence of a similar pre-Roman theatre-building tradition. At the start of this research in Spain and Greece [1], my expectation was a replacement of the Aristotelian “tree” model based on Greek-Roman binarism with a “mosaic” formed by the pre-Roman cultural difference of the study areas. This would have accorded with the recent re-definition of Romanization as an umbrella term for various types of interactions shaped by each province’s physical environment, indigenous culture, and history of relations with Rome [2]. Instead, I ended up with a Deleuzian “rhizome” [3] wherein there, nevertheless, exist hierarchies that are best explained by those intrinsic in the network of cities in the Mediterranean, which changed under the Roman rule through the establishment of communication networks and coloniae at their junctions. 5 This presentation will cross-evaluate the data from the two study areas in the light of complementary research on the examples in Sicily and France to argue that these hierarchies can only be understood from a wider perspective. For this purpose, Braudel’s three planes of historical time (consisting of geo-history, structures, and events) [4] is adopted to argue for the weight of geo-historic factors over the established networks, and the networks on individual buildings that are commonly conceptualized in the theory of architecture as events. Laura Alfano Università degli Studi della Tuscia EXCHANGE AND CONTACT NETWORKS OF RAW MATERIALS DURING THE BRONZE AGE IN CENTRAL-ORIENTAL SICILY "Identity and Insularity in Bronze Age Sicily" - Workshop on Sicilian prehistory Not only is the geographical location of the island, located in the heart of the Mediterranean at the crossroads of three continents, to have determined the fortune of the of Sicily's prehistory, which was a transit zone for cultural influences since remote times, was probably due to its centrality, but one of the most important factors that is linked to the emergence of early prehistoric communities and of the oldest cultural systems of exchange is the fact that the island has represented a real mineral reserve raw materials. The Sicilian prehistory provides a rich and varied framework in the landscape of eco-systemic, social, economic, ethnic relationships, characterizing the total prehistoric age and one of the reasons is closely related to what has always marked the life of Mediterranean societies, namely the interaction and contacts occurred following the exchange of raw materials and finished or semi-finished products between different prehistoric peoples. Even before the Age of Metals, among the first raw materials to become important economic resources, and later also exchange objects, there was the obsidian from the islands of Lipari and Pantelleria. The attempts of exploitation of the deposits are attested already starting by the first Neolithic societies and wide circulation of this particular "volcanic glass" demonstrates to the creation of the first "commercial" routes of supply.

  • On the Political Sociology of the Imperial Greek City Arjan Zuiderhoek
    On the Political Sociology of the Imperial Greek City Arjan Zuiderhoek But above all things, we must remind them that being a pol- itician consists not only in holding office, being ambassador, vociferating in the assembly and ranting round the speakers’ platform proposing laws and motions. Most people think all that is part of being a politician, just as they think of course that those are philosophers who sit in a chair and converse and prepare their lectures over their books. HUS WROTE PLUTARCH in his essay Whether an old man should engage in public affairs.1 It seems an offhand remark, T but all the more interesting for that. For here we have a comment on contemporary Greek civic politics, written prob- ably sometime in the first two decades of the second century, in which the activities of the Greek politicians of the day are described in terms (“vociferating in the assembly,” “ranting around the speaker’s platform”) at least to some extent rem- iniscent of the political world of democratic Athens centuries earlier. It is a description that does not quite seem to fit the common scholarly depiction of the later Hellenistic and Roman Greek cities as strongly oligarchic societies, dominated socially and politically by small coteries of (often interrelated) elite families whose governing institution of choice was the boule, the city council.2 This, then, prompts the question: which of these two contrasting images is nearer the truth? Should we dismiss Plutarch’s remarks as merely another manifestation of 1 Mor. 796C–D (transl. Fowler, modified). 2 See most recently M.

  • Building Materials and Techniqu63 in the Eastern
    BUILDING MATERIALS AND TECHNIQU63 IN THE EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN FRUM THE HELLENISTIC PERIOD TO THE FOURTH CENTURY AD by Hazel Dodgeq BA Thesis submitted for the Degree of'PhD at the University of Newcastle upon Tyne Decembert 1984 "When we buildq let us thinjc that we build for ever". John Ruskin (1819 - 1900) To MY FAMILY AND TU THE MEMORY OF J. B. WARD-PERKINS (1912 - 1981) i ABSTRACT This thesis deals primarily with the materials and techniques found in the Eastern Empire up to the 4th century AD, putting them into their proper historical and developmental context. The first chapter examines the development of architecture in general from the very earliest times until the beginnin .g of the Roman Empire, with particular attention to the architecture in Roman Italy. This provides the background for the study of East Roman architecture in detail. Chapter II is a short exposition of the basic engineering principles and terms upon which to base subsequent despriptions. The third chapter is concerned with the main materials in use in the Eastern Mediterranean - mudbrick, timber, stone, mortar and mortar rubble, concrete and fired brick. Each one is discussed with regard to manufacture/quarrying, general physical properties and building uses. Chapter IV deals with marble and granite in a similar way but the main marble types are described individually and distribution maps are provided for each in Appendix I. The marble trade and the use of marble in Late Antiquity are also examined. Chapter V is concerned with the different methods pf wall construction and with the associated materials.

  • 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.

  • Dendrochronologically Dated Ottoman Monuments
    Dendrochronologically Dated Ottoman Monuments Peter Ian Kuniholm 4 Dendrochronologically Dated Ottoman Monuments Peter Ian Kuniholm INTRODUCTION Dendrochronology or tree-ring dating has been carried out by the author in former Ottoman lands since 1973. The method is, at its sim- plest, to compare the alternately small and large annual growth-rings from trees from a given climate region-in this case as far west as Bosnia and as far east as Erzurum-and to match them so that a unique year-by-year growth profile may be developed. By means of this a precise date determination, accurate even to the year in which the wood was cut, is possible. See Kuniholm (1995) for a fuller discussion of the method; and then see Kuniholm and Striker (1983; 1987) and Kuniholm (1996) for earlier date-lists of Ottoman, post-Byzantine, and Byzantine buildings, including brief notices of dates for a dozen more dated Ottoman buildings, principally in Greece, and additional notices of sampled but not yet dated buildings which are not repeated here. What follows is a compilation, in reverse chronological order, of over fifty dated buildings or sites (more if one counts their constituent parts) from the nineteenth century back to the twelfth (Figure 4.1). Some are major monuments (imperial mosques, sarays, sifayes) clearly deserving of more comprehensive treatment than can be pro- vided here; others (tiirbes, mescits, obscure medreses, and private houses) are little-known, perhaps even unheard of except to special- ists; but all help to form part of the tree-ring sequence which begins with the rings of trees still standing in Turkish forests and extends in an unbroken chain to A.D.360 for oak, A.D.743 for pine, and A.D.1037 for juniper.

    A PRELIMINARY GEOCHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF RELIEF CERAMICS FROM THE NADIN NECROPOLIS A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Elizabeth Gaj Proctor August 2019 © 2019 Elizabeth Gaj Proctor ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This paper analyzes a collection of Hellenistic mold-made relief vessels discovered during the 2018 season of the Nadin-Gradina Archaeological Project through non-destructive portable x-ray fluorescence (pXRF). Archaeometric analysis allows for a reconsideration of previous conclusions about the origins of these vessels and possible trade connections at the site of Nadin. The goal of this study is to determine potential source groups for these vessels through their geochemical composition. While the suitability of pXRF as an analytical tool for archaeological ceramics has been debated, the qualitative design of this research project and the physical characteristics of these vessels allow pXRF to be utilized successfully. Statistical analysis of pXRF results indicate the presence of multiple source groups represented in the samples. The attribution of most of these samples to a smaller number of potential source groups indicates a strong connection between the residents of Nadin and at least two production centers. This thesis is intended to suggest preliminary conclusions about potential sources and suggest areas of further study to better understand the trade connections that brought these vessels to Nadin and the role of Nadin in the Ravni Kotari landscape. ii BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Elizabeth Gaj Proctor received her BA from the University of Maine in 2017, majoring in Anthropology and minoring in Art History and Medieval and Renaissance Studies.
