Abstract

Yazar makalesinde Phaselis’ten İ.S. 3. Yüzyıla
tarihlenen agonistik bir yazıtttan (SEG 55, 1473) yola çı­ka­rak, fes­ti­vallerde
seyircilerin tutum ve davranışlarını incelemektedir. Sporcu müsabakalarını
izleyen se­yircilere yönelik yazıtların oldukça az olması, edebi kaynakların
daha ziyade sporculara, yarışmalara değinmeleri nedeniyle Antik Dönem’de
sporseverlerin düşünce yapılarını ve davranışlarını anlamak güç olduğu için Phaselis
yazıtı gibi kısıtlı sayıda yazıt bu nedenle önem arz etmektedir. Yazar, bu
yazıt üze­rin­den berabere sonuçlanan müsabakalarda seyircilerin bu karar
karşısında tutumunun nasıl olduğunu ve Antik Dönem atletizminde spor seyirciliğinde
yansımaları tartışmaya sunmaktadır. Seyircilerin kendi ken­dilerine yarışmada
alınan sonuçlara hüküm veremedikleri ama çoğunlukla da yarışmada görev alan me­­murların
kararını etkilemeye, akıllarını çelmeye çalıştıkları bilinmektedir. Phaselis
yazıtında da ben­zer durumlar çok büyük bir olasılıkla yer almaktaydı.

Spectator-Athlete Interaction in Ancient Greek Athletics

Abstract

Taking SEG 55, 1473 as a starting point, this
paper examines the evidence for draws and spectator behavior in Greek
athletics. Even though spectators were usually demonstrative and at times even
interacted with athletes, it was always at the discretion of the officials of a
festival to award a joint victory. Spectator approbation was highlighted in agonistic
inscriptions as a token of distinction for late antique victors.

Keywords
