Die Laodikeiakirche. Das Christentum im Lykostal.
New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In German. 106 p., color ills. Die antike Stadt Laodikeia am Lykos wird seit 2003 ausgegraben und restauriert. -_~raggeber 'st das Ministerium für Kultur und Tourismus und die Pamukkale Jniversität. Laodikeia ist sowohl von den ehemaligen Dörfern und heutigen Stadtteilen Eskihisar, Goncali und Bozburun als auch auf drei Seiten von den Flüssen Asopos, <admos und Lykos begrenzt. Die antike Stadt liegt 6 km nördlich der Stadt Denizli. Hatte man früher angenommen, die Gründung ginge auf das 3- Jh. v. Chr. zurück, kam mit den Grabungsarbeiten eine Geschichte, die 5500 v. Chr. begann, zutage. In zahlreichen Erdbeben wurde Laodikeia zerstört, aber immer wieder aufgebaut. Nach dem verheerenden Erdbeben in der Regierungszeit von Focas (602-610) verließen die Überlebenden die Stadt jedoch endgültig und siedelten in Kaleici (heute in Denizli) und Hisarköy, am nördlichen Fuße des Salbakos (Babadag). Ihre erste Blütezeit erlebte die Stadt während der römischen Kaiserzeit, ihre zweite in der Spätantike, zwischen dem vierten und sechsten Jahrhundert, mit der Verbreitung des Christentums. Die Stadt wurde bereits früh Bischofssitz, da sie mit dem Titel eine der ersten Sieben Kirchen in Anatolien ausgezeichnet worden war. Dass sich mit dem Christentum der Lebensstil in Laodikea veränderte, insbesondere ab dem vierten Jahrhundert, nachdem die Stadt ein Wallfahrtsort geworden war, ist durch Ausgrabungen belegt. Ausdruck hierfür ist eine neue sakrale Architektur. In dieser Zeit wurden Teile von Peristylhäuser in Andachtsräme verwandelt und es entstand die Tradition der Familienkapellen. In dieser Arbeit wird zunächst knapp über die Verbreitung des Christentums in der Region berichtet und die Kirchenbauten werden im Überblick vorgestellt. Die im Jahr 2010 ausgegrabene Kirche von Laodikeia bildet dabei den Schwerpunkt. Über sie wird detailliert informiert, wobei sowohl auf ihre besondere Architektur mit Brunnen, Pastophoria, Synthronon, Ambo, Bema, Altar, Taufbecken und Korridore als auch auf die Ausschmückung der Wände mit Fresken und die der Böden mit Opus sectile und Mosaiken eingegangen wird. Darüber hinaus werden die Besonderheiten des Schutzdaches und der Besucherlaufsteg erläutert.

L'eglisa de Laodikeia. Le Christianisme dans la Vallee du Lykos.
New English Paperback. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In French. 106 p., color ills. Depuis 2003, sur décision du Conseil des Ministres, je dirige, au nom du Ministère de la . . jre et du Tourisme et de l'Université de Pamukkale, les fouilles archéologiques et le ravail de restauration sur le site antique de Laodikeia du Lykos, situé à 6 km au nord de Denizli, entre les quartiers d'Eskis,ehir, Goncali et Bozburun (anciens villages) et cerné par trois rivières (Asopos, Kadmos et Lykos). Les fouilles ont permis de remettre en cause .a datation de la première occupation de la ville estimée au milieu du 3e s. av. J.-C. et ae proposer une occupation remontant aux années 5500 av. J.-C. La ville, qui a subi de -ombreux tremblements de terre, a toujours été reconstruite sauf après le tremblement de terre survenu durant le règne de Phocas au cours duquel la ville a été complètement rétruite. Le site a alors été abandonné et les habitants se sont installés à Kaleiçi (Denizli) et à Hisarkôy, sur les hauteurs nord de Salbakos (Babadag). La ville de Laodikeia connut son apogée pendant la période romaine puis l'Antiquité tardive, quand le christianisme fut diffusé du 4e s. au 6e s. ap. J.-C. La ville faisant oartie des sept Églises de l'Apocalypse, elle devint rapidement un siège épiscopal. _es découvertes faites sur le site montrent que le style de vie des habitants changea avec le christianisme et la ville devint un lieu de pèlerinage dès le 4e s. ap. J.-C, avec la multiplication des églises à travers la ville. On constate aussi que certaines pièces des maisons à péristyle furent converties en oratoire, donnant ainsi naissance à la tradition des chapelles familiales ultérieures. Dans cette brève présentation, l'accent a été mis sur la diffusion du christianisme dans .a région et la répartition des églises dans la ville. Les fouilles ont permis de dater l'église de Laodikeia en tenant compte des caractéristiques des vestiges et fragments découverts : les fontaines, le pastophorion, le syntronon, l'ambon, le bêma, l'autel, les fonds baptismaux, le corridor du baptistère, le baptistère, les revêtements en marbre, les fresques, l'opus sectile et les mosaïques. D'autre part, le projet de toit de protection ainsi que le parcours en acier et verre conçu pour les visiteurs sont présentés de manière détaillée.

Laodikeia kilisesi. Lykos Vadisi'nde Hiristiyanlik.
New English Paperback. PRoy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In Turkish. 106 p., color ills. Since 2003 excavations and restoration work at Laodikeia on the Lykos have been Undertaken by the author on behalf of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism and Pamukkale University. The work conducted has shown that the history of Laodikeia, which is located within the borders of Eskihisar, Goncali and Bozburun neighbourhoods (former villages) and surrounded by rivers, namely Asopos, Kadmos, and Lykos, on three sides 6 km the north of Denizli, goes back to 5500s BC, not to the third century BC as was formerly thought. The city experienced numerous earthquakes, some very devastating, but always rebuilt; however, the earthquake in the reign of Focas (r. 602-610) razed her to the ground; the site was abandoned and the survivors settled at Kaleig of Denizli and Hisarkoy on the northern foots of Salbakos (Babadag). The city of Laodikeia had her high times during the Roman Imperial period and Late Antiquity when Christianity spread from the fourth to the sixth century. As the city was one of the first Seven Churches she became a metropolitan see quite early. Evidence uncovered indicates that the lifestyle of the city changed with Christianity and the city became a venue of pilgrimage as of the fourth century. With the spread of churches as architectural monuments across the city it is observed that some rooms in the houses with peristyle courts were converted to oratories building up a tradition of family chapels. This short work first tells briefly about the spread of Christianity in the region and churches in the city. This book's main focus is the Church of Laodikeia uncovered in 2010; therefore, you will find detailed information on its architecture, fountains, pastophoria, synthronon, ambo, bema, altar, baptistery and the corridor leading to it, frescoes, opus sectile flooring, and mosaics and the dating based on excavation finds. Furthermore, the protective roof project and the steel-and-glass catwalk for visitors are presented comprehensively.

Reflections of Ancient Anatolian society in archaeology from Neolithic village communities to EBA towns and polities.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (24 x 17 cm). In English. 640 p. This book provides students of Anatolian archaeology with a revised and detailed assessment of cultural, social, economic, political, and industrial evolution in prehistoric and preliterate Anatolia. The six principal cultural periods, as discussed in Chapters 2 to 7, constitute a time span extending third millennium BC. Chapter 1 begins with a short description of the early Holocene landscape, climate, flora, and fauna and briefly touches on the Paleolithic and Epipaleolithic ancestry of Neolithic Anatolian society, while also highlighting some of the difficulties encountered in investigating and reconstructing the lives of Anatolian hunter-gatherers and agro-pastoralists, especially th.

MEHMET ÖNAL.
Mosaics of Zeugma.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. Oblong large 8vo. (23 x 23 cm). In English. 63 p., 40 color plates. "The discovery and rescue of the mosaics of Zeugma, the ancient Greco-Roman crossing point on the Euphrates, is regarded as the most important recent archaeological event. The book comprises some of the pavements on display in Gaziantep Museum, Gaziantep, Turkey. Zeugma, like the rest of the region was destroyed by the Sassanian king Shapur I in 256, when he raided the eastern lands of the Roman empire. Although the town showed some recovery in the early Byzantine period, and still served as a crossing, this was not comparable with its ancient glory. Thus it is not surprising that while the earliest of the mosaics discovered at Zeugma dates from the late first century CE, the latest belong to the period before the destruction. Almost all of the damage seen in the recovered mosaics, especially in the parts made of glass mosaic cubes, is the result of the fire which accompanied the Sassanian sack of 256. Research has shown that the tesserae of these mosaics were mostly produced from the coloured stone collected from the banks of the Euphrates, and supplemented by glass tesserae for missing hues such as dark green, orange, or light blue.".

101 yapi ve yer, Türkiye.
New New English Original bdg. Dust wrapper. 4to. (29 x 23 cm). In Turkish. 502, [2] p., color and b/w ills. 101 yapi ve yer, Türkiye. This treatise on the built environment and consequentially man-made structures in Anatolia starts from Prehistory and focuses on the dimensions of space and time in particular. Contemporary approaches to cultural historiography not only aim to highlight the continuity of the dimensions of Space and Time but also to effectively examine and explain the pursuit of the 'environmental-formal-institutional-semiotic and evolutionary.'. This comparative study covers historic periods and epochs in Anatolia, the major determinant space, whose history is now proven by archaeological findings to start around 500,000 BC. The built environment in Anatolia has a history of nearly twelve thousand years; the contextual consistency methodology followed here exerts buildings to examine the continuous stages of this cultural history in detail. Limiting the extent to 101 buildings has facilitated focusing on the comparison of their functional and formal features in a historical context; these landmarks only become iconic and gain meaning in a mutual relationship with their immediate environment. This book is a compulsive experimental attempt in contemporary cultural historiography with the classifications and chronological order that have enabled the comparisonof functional and stylistic evolution.

Le voyage a Nemrud Dagi d'Osman Hamdi Bey et Osgan Efendi, 1883.

En 1883, Osman Hamdi Bey et Osgan Efendi publiaient Le tumulus de Nemroud-Dagh. Voyage, description, inscriptions avec plans et photographies, qui rendait compte de leur expédition au tumulus d'Antiochus Ier de Commagène. A l'occasion du centenaire de la disparition d'Osman Hamdi Bey en 1910, Edhem Eldem, professeur d'histoire à l'Université de Bogaziçi, reprend le récit de cette première mission archéologique ottomane, en se fondant sur le carnet de voyage tenu par Osgan Efendi et en y joignant quelque quatre-vingts photographies, prises lors de ce périple, et dont la moitié sont restées inédites jusqu'à ce jour. C'est ainsi l'occasion de découvrir le contexte d'une rivalité surprenante entre le Musée impérial, encore à ses débuts, et les archéologues européens, dans ce cas particulier, allemands ; mais ce texte et les images qui l'accompagnent constituent aussi un exemple flagrant de la vision orientaliste et quasi coloniale qu'avait de plus en plus l'élite ottomane de ces contrées reculées de l'empire. Le voyage à Nemrud Dagi est une occasion de saluer la mémoire de celui qui ouvra tant pour l'archéologie et le patrimoine ottomans et de se pencher sur la complexité et la richesse d'un personnage navigant constamment entre Orient et Occident.

Tarzan ve Spil Dagi. 2. Manisa Çevre Günleri.
As New English Paperback. Pbo. Mint. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In Turkish. Color and b/w ills. 144 p. Manisa Tarzan, the most symbolic person of Manisa City who was living in Spylus Mt. and the Mount Spylus: The ancient Mount Sipylus (Ancient Greek: ???????) (elevation 1,513 m/4,964 ft), is a mountain rich in legends and history in Manisa Province, Turkey, in what used to be the heartland of the Lydians and what is now Turkey's Aegean Region. Its summit towers over the modern city of Manisa as well as over the road between Izmir and Manisa. The contiguous mass of Mount Yamanlar, also overlooking the Gulf of Izmir, has often been considered as an extension of Mount Sipylus massif with which it shares much history, although it is actually an extinct volcano and a distinct geographical formation. A full faced statue of Cybele carved in rock, dated to the late-Hittite or Luwian period in late second millennium BCE, is found near Mount Sipylus, several kilometers east of Manisa. The sculpture is known as Tas Suret in Turkish (meaning "Stone Figure") and sometimes referred to as such also in international literature. The mountain was considered a favorite haunt of the mother goddess. According to an old myth the sculpture was carved by Broteas, Tantalus' ugly son. According to the Byzantine commentator John the Lydian, the unknown author of the 7th century BCE epic poem, the Titanomachy, placed the birth of Zeus, not in Crete, but in Lydia, which should signify Mount Sipylus. The names "Sipylus" or "Sipylum" are mentioned by Pliny the Elder, supported by other sources, as the site of a very celebrated city called "Tantalis" or "the city of Tantalus", by the name of its cited founder. Presumably located on or very near the mountain, the city's ruins were reportedly still visible around in the beginning of the Common Era. The same Tantalus is famed through Greek mythology by the accounts relating that he had cut up his son Pelops and served him up as food for the gods. His son Pelops is said to have migrated later to the Peloponnese, named after him, and to have founded a kingdom. Tantalus' daughter was the tragic Niobe, who is associated with the "Weeping Rock" (Aglayan Kaya in Turkish), a natural formation facing the city of Manisa. Later in ancient times, Mount Sipylus, located in Lydia, (Ancient Greek: ???????), rose above the site of Magnesia ad Sipylum (the southern portion of modern Manisa), whose existence is traced back as far as the 5th century BCE. Magnesia was located along the Hermus River (Gediz River) on the plain below and was the scene of the defeat of Antiochus III "the Great" by the Romans, at the Battle of Magnesia in 190 BCE. Smyrna lay nearby.

The site is located along the major branch of the Orontes River in the Amuq Valley of Hatay, near present-day Antakya in southern Turkey.

Restoration and Conservation Project of Urartian Jewellery Collection of Rezan Has Museum.= Rezan Has Müzesi Urartu Takilari Restorasyon ve Konservasyon Projesi.
New English Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (30 x 25 cm). In English and Turkish. 100 p., color ills. Jewelleries such as pectorals (breastplate), medallions, beads, amulets, neck rings, ornamental pins, fibulae, armlets, bracelets, rings and furthermore, the most comprehensive Urartian belt collection of Turkey with approximately 70 belts will reveal the mysterious thoughts, religious beliefs and traditions of the Urartian society. Among the most important factors in the development of the Urartian art of jewellery is the presence of rich mineral deposits of Eastern Anatolia and the profitable use of these deposits by the Urartian jewellery masters. Gold, silver, lead, iron and particularly copper deposits in the region were effectively mined for the first time by the Urartians. With the mission and vision it has upheld since its inauguration, Rezan Has Museum has arduously strived to preserve the historic assets of our land, which has been home to countless civilizations, and to ensure that they are transmitted to future generations. Our most important mission is to safeguard the Museum's jewellery collection of the Urartian civilization, which reigned over Anatolia for 250 years and to entrust future generations with a collection preserved at least its present condition. Each new study on these treasures to be handed down from one generation to the next will shed light not only upon our past but upon our future as well.".

Antioch mosaics. A corpus.
New English Original bdg. HC. Large 4to. (32 x 28 cm). In English. 320 p., color ills. "The book includes the most important Antioch mosaic pavements displayed in the Hatay Archaeological Museum in Antakya, Turkey, seventeen different institutions in the USA and the Louvre. The mosaics were brought to light in and around Antioch on the Orontes (Antakya), Seleucia Pieria (Çevlik) and Daphne (Defne) in 1932-37. As a group, the Antioch mosaics demonstrate a remarkable continuity with the Hellenistic artistic tradition as seen in the preservation of classical subjects and decorative devices, such as the illusionistic treatment of the inhabited vine scrolls or ribbon borders. The common use of multiple borders to frame figural panels at Antioch is also reminiscent of the framing of Hellenistic emble-mata, or portable panels prepared in workshops and then inserted at the sites. The three-dimensional treatment of interiors and landscapes, the naturalistic representation of the human anatomy, and the variety of colors employed for the Antiochene compositions, indicate a dependence on painting styles. Such skill in the production of stone 'paintings' effectively denies the solidity of the floor and tricks the eye of the viewer, not to mention their physical relationship to the room itself. Finds from nearby sites (Apamea, Zeugma, Shahba-Philippopolis, and Palmyra) are similarly 'traditional' and point to the existence of a 'school' of eastern art beyond that of the Antiochene workshops. Such illusionism reaches the height of fashion during the Severan period in Antioch.".

ANNELIESE PESCHLOW-BINDOKAT.
Herakleia on the Latmos. City and environment. A Carian Mountain landscape.
New English Paperback. Pbo. Demy 8vo. (21,5 x 12 cm). In English. 262 p., color and b/w ills. Our Archaeological guides are written by well-know archaeologists in the hope that they might evoke the spirit of these sites for anyone interested in the remains of Anatolian civilizations. Illustrated with beautiful photographs, equipped with helpful plans and drawings, they are essential resources for travelers in Turkey. 'Who crosses the area of the Maeander, is at his east side threatened by the dark zig zag top of the Latmos, a granite mountain created by eruptions.Inhospitable and poor, this mountain, separated from the thoroughfare by a lake, has always been the most desolate area of the region.In the unparalleled wildness of jumbled rocks, the Latmos is one of the greatest nature experiences a traveller can be granted.' (M. Schede,1936). In this mountain region, which was so aptly described in his time by M. Schede, in the past years numerous, largely unkown settlement traces have been found, which are decisively characterised by the rock landscape of the Latmos. Mount Latmos was one of the sacred mountains of Anatolia; its top was the residence place of the highest god, the Weather God. Among the numerous recent discoveries the Prehistoric rock paintings with their unique imagery are undoubtedly the most important. In the Karadere Cave, presumably the central sanctuary of the Weather God, even the modern visitor becomes aware of the connection between the rock paintings and the mountain top. Dr. Anneliese Peschlow-Bindokat, scientific researcher at the German Archaeological Institute- Berlin (DAI), has been the director of the Latmos Project for more than 20 yeras. "Who crosses the area of the Maeander, is at his east side threatened by the dark zig zag top of the Latmos, a granite mountain created by eruptions. Inhospitable and poor, this mountain, separated from the thoroughfare by a lake, has ahvays been the most desolate area of the region. in the unparalleled vvildness of jumbled rocks, the Latmos is one of the greatest nature experiences a traveller can be gran-ted.(M.Schede,1936). in this mountain region, which was so apdy described in his time by M.
