The Nature of Hellenistic Domestic Sculpture in Its Cultural and Spatial Contexts
THE NATURE OF HELLENISTIC DOMESTIC SCULPTURE IN ITS CULTURAL AND SPATIAL CONTEXTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Craig I. Hardiman, B.Comm., B.A., M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2005 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Dr. Mark D. Fullerton, Advisor Dr. Timothy J. McNiven _______________________________ Advisor Dr. Stephen V. Tracy Graduate Program in the History of Art Copyright by Craig I. Hardiman 2005 ABSTRACT This dissertation marks the first synthetic and contextual analysis of domestic sculpture for the whole of the Hellenistic period (323 BCE – 31 BCE). Prior to this study, Hellenistic domestic sculpture had been examined from a broadly literary perspective or had been the focus of smaller regional or site-specific studies. Rather than taking any one approach, this dissertation examines both the literary testimonia and the material record in order to develop as full a picture as possible for the location, function and meaning(s) of these pieces. The study begins with a reconsideration of the literary evidence. The testimonia deal chiefly with the residences of the Hellenistic kings and their conspicuous displays of wealth in the most public rooms in the home, namely courtyards and dining rooms. Following this, the material evidence from the Greek mainland and Asia Minor is considered. The general evidence supports the literary testimonia’s location for these sculptures. In addition, several individual examples offer insights into the sophistication of domestic decorative programs among the Greeks, something usually associated with the Romans. -
Monuments, Materiality, and Meaning in the Classical Archaeology of Anatolia
MONUMENTS, MATERIALITY, AND MEANING IN THE CLASSICAL ARCHAEOLOGY OF ANATOLIA by Daniel David Shoup A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Art and Archaeology) in The University of Michigan 2008 Doctoral Committee: Professor Elaine K. Gazda, Co-Chair Professor John F. Cherry, Co-Chair, Brown University Professor Fatma Müge Göçek Professor Christopher John Ratté Professor Norman Yoffee Acknowledgments Athena may have sprung from Zeus’ brow alone, but dissertations never have a solitary birth: especially this one, which is largely made up of the voices of others. I have been fortunate to have the support of many friends, colleagues, and mentors, whose ideas and suggestions have fundamentally shaped this work. I would also like to thank the dozens of people who agreed to be interviewed, whose ideas and voices animate this text and the sites where they work. I offer this dissertation in hope that it contributes, in some small way, to a bright future for archaeology in Turkey. My committee members have been unstinting in their support of what has proved to be an unconventional project. John Cherry’s able teaching and broad perspective on archaeology formed the matrix in which the ideas for this dissertation grew; Elaine Gazda’s support, guidance, and advocacy of the project was indispensible to its completion. Norman Yoffee provided ideas and support from the first draft of a very different prospectus – including very necessary encouragement to go out on a limb. Chris Ratté has been a generous host at the site of Aphrodisias and helpful commentator during the writing process. -

Q&A with Susan Heuck Allen
Classical Spies: American Archaeologists with the OSS in World War II Greece Susan Heuck Allen http://press.umich.edu/titleDetailDesc.do?id=1735600 The University of Michigan Press, 2011 Q&A with Susan Heuck Allen, author of Classical Spies: American Archaeologists with the OSS in World War II Greece Classical Spies is the first insiders' account of the operations of the American intelligence service in World War II Greece. Initiated by archaeologists in Greece and the eastern Mediterranean, the network drew on scholars' personal contacts and knowledge of languages and terrain. While modern readers might think Indiana Jones is just a fantasy character, Classical Spies discloses events where even Indy would feel at home: burying Athenian dig records in an Egyptian tomb, activating prep- school connections to establish spies code-named Vulture and Chickadee, and organizing parachute drops. Susan Heuck Allen reveals remarkable details about a remarkable group of individuals. Often mistaken for mild-mannered professors and scholars, such archaeologists as Princeton's Rodney Young, Cincinnati's Jack Caskey and Carl Blegen, Yale's Jerry Sperling and Dorothy Cox, and Bryn Mawr's Virginia Grace proved their mettle as effective spies in an intriguing game of cat and mouse with their Nazi counterparts. Relying on interviews with individuals sharing their stories for the first time, previously unpublished secret documents, private diaries and letters, and personal photographs, Classical Spies offers an exciting and personal perspective on the history of World War II. An experienced archaeologist and author of many books and articles, including a volume on Frank Calvert's discovery of Troy, Susan Heuck Allen has taught at Yale University and Smith College and is currently Visiting Scholar in the Department of Classics, Brown University. -

Middle and Late Phrygian Gordion
Iranica Antiqua, vol. XXXIV, 1999 FROM PHRYGIAN CAPITAL TO ACHAEMENID ENTREPOT: MIDDLE AND LATE PHRYGIAN GORDION BY Mary M. VOIGT College of William and Mary T. Cuyler YOUNG, Jr. University of Toronto Introduction In the early Spring of 1960 David Stronach and Cuyler Young stood on the edge of the Toll-i Takht at about four in the afternoon and looked out at the Achaemenid architecture of Pasargadae. David was fully recovered from his queasy tummy of the night before, spent in a tea house in Dehbid, and his natural enthusiasm for all matters archaeological was in full cry. Max Mallowan, not yet knighted but firmly in control of the Board of Trustees of the British Institute of Persian Studies in Teheran, had sug- gested that the Institute’s first excavation in Iran be an important historical site like Pasargadae. Stronach was keen. Certainly he was well trained for the task, having dug at Nimrud with Mallowan and at Charsada with Wheeler, though his work at Ras al’Amiya in Iraq and at Yarim Tepe in northeastern Iran had equally prepared him for a major prehistoric project. Pasargadae it was. On the plain below stood the remains of the Tomb of Cyrus, Palace S and P, the Zendan-i Suleiman, and the Sacred Enclosure. Behind David was the Toll-i Takht (Takht-i Madar-i Suleiman) and to the east, north and south the barely visible walls of the fortification enclosure joining the Takht. In three seasons of excavation Stronach would clarify the nature and function of these monuments, would uncover a number of structures never seen before, and would put the Achaemenids back on the intellectual map of Near Eastern archaeology. -

I was thus reluctant to write a farewell for this issue, not least because the thought of leaving Souidias 54 saddens me. I will miss waking to the chatter of birds in the garden, smelling the wisteria and the ákoue! bitter oranges in bloom, but above all the constant bustle of members and visitors coming and going, thousands each year. Many have become dear friends. I can’t believe how little I knew about ASCSA before assuming my post, or how much I now know about the academic, intellectual, and social communities in Greece in which we play such an impor- tant role. -

The book is written as a cross between a scholarly work and a real-life thriller. The status of Turkey as a neutral country made it a center of espionage, a sort of actual equivalent of the film Casablanca . Aspects of the story include the Allied-Axis struggle to get Turkey on their side; the spy rings set up in the Middle East and the Balkans; the attempts of Jews to escape through Turkey; the Allies’ covert war in Greece, Yugoslavia, Hungary, and other countries; and the first accurate account of how the Germans recruited the British ambassador’s valet as a spy, who could have been their most successful agent of the war if only they had listened to his warnings. -
