Ceramic resource landscapes of ancient Pergamon
The selection of mineral raw materials in (pre-industrial) ceramic production depends on their geogenic availability, accessibility, technological properties, and the framing socio-ecological conditions for resource exploitation. The connection of these factors is explored in the current study by taking the Pergamon Micro-region in western Anatolia as an example; here, potters worked within a geologically diverse landscape that offered both alluv…
Understanding geomorphodynamics in the Pergamon micro-region from a socio-ecological perspective
A systematic interdisciplinary approach based on the socio-ecological model of the Vienna school has been adopted to achieve a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of the ancient metropolis of Pergamon (western Anatolia) and its micro-region. The city of Pergamon ranks among the ‘guiding fossils’ of urban culture in antiquity. We describe how the socio-ecological model is subject to adaptation and discussion to fit the needs and circumstan…
Mid- to Late Holocene geomorphodynamics in a long-term settled mountain catchment in the Pergamon micro-region, western Turkey
From 300 BC to AD 300, the city of Pergamon underwent a profound transformation that impacted the rural settlement patterns and the concomitant geomorphodynamics. We present a geoarchaeological study in a long-term settled catchment in the Pergamon micro-region to disentangle the Holocene geomorphodynamics and triggering factors, for example, climate change and human activity. The analyses of eight radiocarbon-dated sediment profiles from the Tek…
Holocene geomorphodynamics of a rural catchment in the Pergamon micro-region (eastern Mediterranean)
The Pergamon micro-region (western Türkiye) has experienced several phases of increased geomorphodynamics during the Holocene. However, the role of local–regional human activities during a transformation between Hellenism and the Roman Imperial period and supra-regional climate fluctuations is still under discussion. Five sediment profiles from the alluvial fan of the rural Deliktaş catchment are analyzed and radiocarbon-dated to provide a sedime…
Reconstructing human–landscape interactions in the context of ancient iron smelting on Elba Island, Italy, using sedimentological evidence
We reconstruct human–landscape interactions in the context of ancient bloomery smelting on Elba Island, Tyrrhenian Sea, based on sedimentological evidence. Elba was, together with Populonia, the center of iron production in antiquity (mid‐6th century B.C.E. to 1st century C.E.). The sediment sequences obtained by vibracoring in the Campo plain reveal that the Holocene transgression triggered aggradation during the Early–Middle Holocene (>5.4 ka c…

Zur absoluten Chronologie der westsibirischen Spätbronze- und frühen Eisenzeit. Die Überprüfung der Besiedlungsphasen in Čiča mit Bayes’scher Statistik
Der Siedlungsplatz Čiča ist ein Schlüsselfundplatz für das Verständnis der westsibirischen Spätbronze- und Früheisenzeit. Von besonderer Bedeutung ist dabei die umfangreiche Serie von Radiokohlenstoffdaten, über deren Interpretation in der Literatur allerdings kein Konsens herrscht. Kontrovers diskutiert wird insbesondere die chronologische Stellung der späten Stufe der Irmen’-Kultur, die eng mit der Frage nach einem Hiatus in der Besiedlung von …
