THE IRON AGE IN EAST PLAIN CILICIA - A FIRST ASSESSMENT OF THE IRON AGE POTTERY FROM THE OSMANIYE SURVEY

Abstract

New investigations in the region of the East Plain Cilicia offer remarkable insights into the Iron Age history of this ™ region. The Osmaniye Archaeological Survey, being conducted since 2005, comprises more than 40 archaeological mounds that have yielded a large variety of material culture, from the Neolithic period to medieval times. In this article, the Iron Age pottery of the survey will be analyzed and compared with other sources from Osmaniye, as well as from the surrounding areas. Even though the influences of the neighboring areas were continuous and strong, the results of this analysis emphasize the existence of different traditions, mostly independent of the influences offoreign cultures, such as the Assyrian, Greek, Phoenician, Cypriot, and Persian cultures that dominated the area politically or commercially and, unlike the local population, left a large quantity of written sources. Although the pottery survey should be handled with care regarding definite chronological statements, it provides highly valuable information through comparative analysis with stratified material
