Jay Newhard [2021. “Alethic Undecidability and Alethic Indeterminacy.” Synthese 199: 2563–2574. doi:10.1007/s11229-020-02900-z] proposes a novel solution to the Liar Paradox, which he calls the alethic indeterminacy solution to the Liar Paradox. Bradley Armour-Garb [2021. “Troubles for Alethic Indeterminacy.” Inquiry. doi:10.1080/0020174X.2021.1932166] raises a pair of objections to the alethic indeterminacy solution. Both objections are based up…
A Cross-Comparative Framework to Explore Land Use Histories of the Northeastern Peloponnese, Greece
Calls for an “archaeology of climate change” highlight the interest in integrating human land use histories with the paleoenvironmental record. Shifts in land use patterns, observed via regional archaeological surveys, have been used in studies exploring the relationships between human and environmental systems, often via the Adaptive Cycle (AC). Recent work has combined datasets from separate surveys to examine macroregional patterns, which can …
Alethic undecidability and alethic indeterminacy
Reflections on the Avkat Archaeological Project
The Avkat Archaeological Project took place in Turkey between 2006 and 2010. Like many modern projects, it attempted to shed some light on rural, elite, and non-elite systems of the Medieval period in the eastern Mediterranean. The fieldwork of the project is now over and a publication has been produced. Here we want to discuss a much more reflective, indeed, rather biographic, set of observations about the Avkat Archaeological Project
Evaluating Archaeological Evidence for Demographics, Abandonment, and Recovery in Late Antique and Byzantine Anatolia
Not the End of the World? Post-Classical Decline and Recovery in Rural Anatolia
Euchaïta
Euchaita was famous in the late Roman and Byzantine periods as the center of the cult of St. Theodore Tiro (“the recruit”); between the seventh and eleventh centuries and as a result of the changed strategic geography of the region following upon the early Arab-Islamic conquests, it became a military base, but after the Turkish conquest of Anatolia in the later eleventh century fell into obscurity, although apparently remained continuously occupi…
Plain truth and the incoherence of alethic functionalism
The development of integrated terrestrial and marine pathways in the Argo-Saronic region, Greece
Least cost path applications can be a powerful tool for understanding connectivity across a landscape. A limitation to this method is its difficulty in integrating terrestrial, marine, and cultural factors – all of which would have been at play in the prehistoric Aegean. This study looks at a method of modeling pathways that integrates major factors (land, sea, and culture) that would be in play while considering medium- to long-distance travel i…
The Climate and Environment of Byzantine Anatolia
The integration of high-resolution archaeological, textual, and environmental data with longer-term, low-resolution data affords greater precision in identifying some of the causal relationships underlying societal change. Regional and microregional case studies about the Byzantine world-in particular, Anatolia, which for several centuries was the heart of that world-reveal many of the difficulties that researchers face when attempting to assess …
A geoinformatic approach to the collection of archaeological survey data
This article explores the integration of GIS technology with archaeological survey, focusing primarily on two case studies from central Anatolia, the Göksu Archaeological Project and the Avkat Archaeological Project. The methodology employed allows for expediency and accuracy in data recording, which enables refined analyses of anthropogenic and environmental phenomena. The approaches outlined in this article allowed the investigators to move fro…
Least-cost pathway analysis and inter-regional interaction in the Göksu valley, Turkey
Recent work in the Göksu river valley has brought questions of long-distance communication routes to the forefront of discussion. The valley has been long regarded as a potential conduit from the Anatolian plateau to the Mediterranean, yet no formal testing as to whether it was geographically suited to this use has taken place. The discovery of the site of Çömlek Tepesi in the upper Göksu valley and work at Kilse Tepe south of Mut has given furth…
