Early Iron in Western Anatolia
This article presents the results of archaeological and metallographic analysis of two iron knives from Asarlık in southwestern Anatolia, dated to the Protogeometric period (ca 1050‐900 bce ). The combination of analytical methods demonstrated that the objects were forged from different materials, low‐carbon iron and heterogeneous steel, as a result of differential sourcing of semi‐finished products rather than through deliberate action during fo…
Chasing Urartu Alloying Practices
Urartian metalwork is well known for its technological sophistication; however, the classification of copper‐based alloys within this corpus, particularly the distinction between standard tin bronzes and zinc‐bearing alloys, remains poorly constrained. The identification of such alloys is further complicated by the fundamental limitations of noninvasive analytical techniques. This study systematically evaluates the reliability of handheld x‐ray f…
Brass metallurgy in Urartu
First evidence of crucible steel production in Medieval Anatolia, Kubadabad
In this article, we present the first archaeological evidence for crucible steel production in Anatolia uncovered in recent excavations at Kubadabad, which was built as a palace by the Anatolian Seljuks in the early 13th century AD. Along with plenty of crucible sherds recovered at the site, blades made of crucible steel, production waste-iron chunks and manganese oxide pellets also revealed remarkable information about the process of production.…
Arrowheads (Temren) Found from the Exacavations at the Sultan Giyaseddin Keyhüsrev-II Caravanserai in Eğirdir, Isparta
The number of studies on comparisons of technical features of arms in the sophisticated history of Medieval Ages is very limited. One of the reasons for this deficiency is the disregard of this topic in researches, and another reason is that the unclear information about the layers of archaeological finds. Such is the case for Medieval Anatolia as well. Excavation finds like knives, arrowheads and spearheads are not included in the interpretation…
Multi-phase microstructures in Anatolian Seljuks iron-steel objects
In this paper a collection of iron objects from the Anatolian Seljuks Period, ca. 12th–13th century AD, are analysed and discussed from a metallurgical perspective. A total number of 21 iron-steel objects, small knives and flat bodied (with thin cross-section) arrowheads was examined. These objects are coming from the Seljuks’ cultural layers of Eğirdir (Isparta, Central Anatolian Caravanserai), Kubad Abad (Konya, Central Anatolian Sultan’s Palac…
A Group of Arrowhead Found in Amorium Excavation
Ortacag’in en etkili saldiri silahi hic kuskusuz ok ve yaydi. Okun esas yaralamayi saglayacak olan uc kisminin bicimi, agirligi veya icyapisi, diger bircok etmenin yani sira atis kabiliyetini en fazla etkileyen faktorlerdendi. Demir ya da celik okucunun icyapisindaki karbon veya sertlik orani, sertlestirme bicimi, uretilen hammaddenin yapisinin temiz, kirli veya atik maddelerden olusuyor olmasi onun teknik ozelliklerini dogrudan etkiler.
