Document Details : Title: The Site of Arzan Subtitle: A Preliminary Topographical and Archaeological Reconnaissance in 2014 Author(s): MARCIAK, Michał Journal: Ancient West & East Volume: 16 Date: 2017 Pages: 305-324 DOI: 10.2143/AWE.16.0.3214945 Abstract : This paper reports the results of a topographical and archaeological prospection of the site of Arzan and its vicinity, considered by many scholars to be the remains of ancient Tigranocerta, in 2014. The paper provides the first digital documentation of several archaeological objects. The aim of this documentation is twofold. First, it is to document the site, which is subject to rapid degradation. Second, it is hoped that it can also cast additional light on Thomas Sinclair’s identification of Arzan as ancient Tigranocerta. |
