Book excerpt: Turkish archaeology, under the influence of the German archaeological tradition, is not founded upon innovative theoretical ideas but the documentation and collection of data. In this work the author attempts to break the traditional views and concentrates on archaeological interpretation and a theoretical discussion on the archaeology of Eastern Thrace. This study is the product of intensive fieldwork undertaken in the Edirne region of Eastern Thrace, and it offers new information and theories on the prehistoric settlements of the region.

B.C. written by Ivan Gatsov and published by British Archaeological Reports Oxford Limited. This book was released on 2009 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main focus of this work is the investigation of Holocene chipped stone assemblages in the area of South Bulgaria and especially the region of Northern Thrace and NW Turkey (Eastern Thrace and the South Marmara region), a key region for the processes of cultural development of the prehistoric population from the 7th to the 5th mill. BC. It aims to fill a gap in our knowledge of prehistoric stone technology and typology and systems of supply in this region and period, at the same time as publishing the stone collections and making them available to interested scholars. Within this work two main topics will be considered: a) technological and typological analyses of the chipped stone assemblages under study; and b) raw material procurement and the systems of supply of the prehistoric population in the regions presented.

Book excerpt: *Includes pictures *Includes a bibliography for further reading *Includes a table of contents By the 7th century BCE, Thrace was experiencing the migration of Cimmerians and Scythians. The result was that the northern Black Sea Scythians developed first on the territory of Byzantium, and trade and industrial-colonization stretched from the Golden Horn to the Sea of Azov and the lower Don region. In addition, the Sarmatians and Getae on the lower Don were also involved in a profitable trade with this area. The continuing economic and political ties with the Don region and the Getae, with trade contacts reaching the Middle Don and the Southwestern Urals, even linked Byzantium with Russia prior to Constantine. From 580 to 300 BCE, Ionian colonization of the Bosporus gave rise to a number of systems that created powerful regimes to protect their strategic assets. Spartan colonists against the Scythian state from the Dniper to the Dardanelles also created a violent combination that almost constantly placed the region in chaos. At the same time, the region helped transmit Greek culture to Central Asia and southern Russia. During the last three centuries BCE, the region focused on trade with the new masters of the steppes, the Sarmatians living in Asiatic Scythia on its border with the European Don area. The trade network near the Don region in the beginning of the 3rd century BCE was marked by the city of Tanais. It was not until the 1st century BCE that the region was firmly part of the Roman Empire, and the Romans' influence also ultimately led to the spread of Judaism and Christianity. Thrace: The History of the Ancient World's Link Between East and West analyzes the turbulent history of the region in antiquity. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about Ancient Thrace like never before, in no time at all.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book explores the complexity of the past, by analysing the relationships between place, territory, the material value of objects and landscapes, time and ritual, during archaeological investigations. It presents the archaeology of place as a series of interconnecting and interactive relationships. It is clear that things and places do not emerge without some form of agency, usually through the concept of material manipulation, coupled with elaboration, innovation and time. Depending on the raw material used and the process of manipulation and its relationship with the environment, materiality gains value. How do we as modern humans work within the complexity of place, materiality, time, and ritual? Traditional in archaeological discourse is the need to describe place, albeit in an empiricist and banal way. Discourse is sometimes followed by a more fruitful and interpretive account. However, these accounts tend to ignore human emotion that is bound-up in place, for example the ritualized and symbolic meanings that place holds. This book explores the significance of geography, place and the materiality that place holds, and challenges many of the tradition norms that in the past have trivialized landscape archaeology. The book is divided into 14 thought-provoking and crafted chapters and will be an ideal companion to anyone involved in the social sciences.
