Shifting tin imports into the broader Eastern Mediterranean region during the Bronze and Early Iron Ages (ca. 2000-900 BC)
Lacking substantial local tin deposits after 2000 BC, the Eastern Mediterranean depended on the importation of large quantities of tin from extraneous sources. Situated roughly equidistant (ca. 3000 km) between the large tin deposits of Western Europe and Central Asia, both localities have been proposed as potential sources of tin metal used in Eastern Mediterranean bronze production. However, such speculation must be substantiated. Herein, we as…
From peaks to ports
Bulgarmaden
It has long been suspected that the use of iron predated the so-called meteoric and smelted iron of the later stages of prehistory. Certainly small objects of iron such as awls and pins are found from the Chalcolithic period onwards and the rightly famous iron swords from Alaca Höyük demonstrate skills in making larger weapons in the Early Bronze Age. I document the use of iron ore for hammers and maces at Early Bronze Age sites in the Taurus Mou…

Recent Developments in Hittite Archaeology and History
The Domestication of Metals
Over the decades, Anatolian metal artifacts have been the focus of extensive scientific analysis. Now fifteen years of field work, current surveys, excavations, and analytical programs regarding transformations in metallurgy in this highly metalliferous region have enabled Aslıhan Yener in Domestication of Metals to focus for the first time on the organization of production within a broader social context. In so doing, the author introduces convi…

The Amuq Valley Regional Project, 1995-1998
The Amuq plain in southeast Turkey is of major importance to the development of Near Eastern cultural sequences. Recent investigations of geoarchaeology, settlement patterns, and individual sites now provide a framework for the assessment of the original work by the University of Chicago and Sir Leonard Woolley. Geoarchaeological investigations provide a dynamic context for the interpretation of settlement patterns and show that sedimentation ove…

"Reply to J. D. Muhly, "Early Bronze Age Tin and the Taurus
This response to J. D. Muhly's essay (supra pp. 239–53) focuses on a series of key issues that have arisen concerning the chronology, technology, and archaeological context in which prehistoric metallurgy developed. Additional radiocarbon dates and information on EBA ceramics from soundings in the Kestel mine are presented, which are relevant to the dating of the operations. The tin-bronze industry at Tarsus and the question of "intentionality" i…
Tin Processing at Göltepe, an Early Bronze Age Site in Anatolia
This paper presents the archaeological contexts and results of analyses of slags, surface residues, and earthenware refractories from the third-millennium B. C. site of Göltepe in south-central Turkey. These materials are only part of a workshop/habitation assemblage at the site, which also includes ore nodules, multifaceted molds, and metal fragments as well as groundstone tools utilized in ore dressing and beneficiation. Twenty-four ceramic fra…
Response to Mark E. Hall and Sharon R. Steadman 'Tin and Anatolia
Tin in the Turkish Taurus mountains
The sources of tin in the ancient Near East have been a long-standing puzzle. Anatolia is a key area, for it has copper in vast quantities, and silver. Since no substantial or workable deposits of tin seemed to exist in Turkey, an external source for tin bronzes in Anatolia has seemed necessary. The new finds reported here change that picture, as they reveal a major source of the metal in the Taurus mountains, on the south coast of Anatolia
The Archaeometry of Silver in Anatolia
Current research into the ancient exploitation of silver in Anatolia is presented within the context of a larger project involving the collaboration of scholars from Turkey and the United States. Emphasis is on determining the location of ancient sources of silver and gold, tracing the evolution of metallurgical technology from the Neolithic through the Ottoman period, and detailing the emergence of an international trade in metals from sources i…
