Abstract

In the buildings belonging to the level V of the Maydos Kilisetepe Höyüğü, which is located on the European side of the Dardanelles Strait, 169 pieces decorated clay mural reliefs were found. The majority of the coatings were found in a single structure. The building was built with Western Anatolian architectural techniques. However, similar mural reliefs are not seen in Anatolian cultures in the 2nd millennium BC. Similar practices are evident along the land and river networks from Macedonia to Central Europe. In addition, some ceramic and small finds that are foreign to Anatolian culture, recovered in level V indicate that intercultural communication between the 2nd millennium BC was the most intense during this period

MAYDOS KİLİSETEPE HÖYÜĞÜ GEÇ TUNÇ ÇAĞI BEZEMELİ DUVAR KAPLAMALARI

Abstract

Çanakkale Boğazı’nın Avrupa yakası kıyısında yer alan Maydos Kilisetepe Höyüğü’nün V. tabakasına ait yapılarda 169 adet kilden bezemeli duvar kaplama parçası veya daha önce kullanılan adıyla rölyefli kerpiç parçası ele geçmiştir. Kaplamaların büyük bir çoğunluğu tek bir yapıda bulunmuştur. Söz konusu yapı Batı Anadolu mimari teknikleri ile inşa edilmiştir. Ancak kaplamaların benzerleri MÖ 2. binyılda Anadolu kültürlerinde görülmez. Benzer uygulamalara Makedonya’dan Orta Avrupa’ya uzanan akarsu ve kara ağları boyunca rastlanmaktadır. Bununla birlikte V. tabakada tespit edilen Anadolu kültürüne yabancı bazı seramik ve küçük buluntular, MÖ 2. binyıl tabakaları arasında kültürlerarası iletişimin en yoğun bu dönemde yaşandığını göstermektedir.
