Title: | Between the states: Iron Age interaction in southwestern Anatolia | Contributor(s): | Kealhofer, Lisa (author); Grave, Peter (author) ; Bahar, Hasan (author); Marsh, Ben (author) | Publication Date: | 2015 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.jasrep.2015.05.023 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/17629 | Abstract: | This paper explores how Iron Age Anatolian communities constructed their identities within the fluid political and economic landscape of the Eastern Mediterranean after the Late Bronze Age collapse. Our study focuses on archaeological survey ceramics from sixteen sites in the Konya-Beyșehir region (KBR), south central Anatolia, a contested zone between the Phrygian and Neo-Assyrian polities. We use a combined stylistic and geochemical analysis to address political/economic interaction within this landscape. Comparing KBR site ceramic decorative styles with those of inland and coastal Anatolian sites allows us to identify local patterns of emulation. We differentiate emulation from actual exchange using geochemical elemental characterization. Together these techniques allow us to evaluate how local communities used emulation and exchange to construct their identities. Our results reveal that Iron Age KBR communities operated within a complex regional exchange sphere, and beyond this showed greatest affinity with Phrygian ceramic styles. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Grant Details: | ARC/DP0558992 | Source of Publication: | Journal of Archaeological Science: Reports, v.3, p. 342-357 | Publisher: | Elsevier BV | Place of Publication: | Netherlands | ISSN: | 2352-4103 2352-409X |
