Document Details : Title: Reforging Connections Subtitle: The Black Sea Coast of Anatolia in the 4th-3rd Millennia BC Author(s): WELTON, Lynn Journal: Anatolica Volume: 43 Date: 2017 Pages: 117-156 DOI: 10.2143/ANA.43.0.3262798 Abstract : The Black Sea coastal region remains one of the most poorly understood areas of Anatolia. Chronological controversies surrounding the best-excavated site of İkiztepe have resulted in difficulties in interpreting the site’s cultural sequence with regard to its place within the larger Anatolian world. While the earlier part of the sequence at this site, located on Mound II (spanning primarily the late 6th-5th millennia BC), has been widely discussed in terms of its chronology, the Mound I sequence has not received the same attention. This article thus aims to create a chronological framework for the Late Chalcolithic-Early Bronze Age periods in this area of northern Anatolia, by examining the 4th-3rd millennium sequence excavated on Mound I at the site of İkiztepe. |
