Description
Summary:This paper presents the results of a longterm survey conducted in the Bakırçay/Kaikos Valley and the vicinity of Pergamon, which provides a new primary dataset for the 2nd millennium BCE developments in this area. The archaeological evidence will be outlined in detail for the first time here, embedded in broader cultural and material developments of the Western Anatolian Middle and Late Bronze Ages. The discussion will not be limited to ceramic wares and shapes and the chronological assessment of the finds only, but their distribution within the valley and site hierarchies will be assessed as well. Finally, the significance of the Bakırçay Valley within the broader cultural landscapes of Western Anatolia will be reconsidered.
