| Summary: | Interest in Anatolian prehistory has experienced a rapid increase in the last decade. While many scholars are researching interaction between Anatolia and Mesopotamia, several have also been attempting to elucidate interregional interaction between Anatolia and the Balkans of southeastern Europe. This article is intended to provide an overview of this important area of investigation to researchers working outside Anatolia and Europe, with an accompanying compendium of literature treating this topic. This work offers an outline on the history of research into the issue; a chronological sketch of the relevant prehistoric periods of Anatolia and Europe, with an emphasis on the Chalcolithic; and a summary of the sites in both regions that have provided seemingly incontrovertible evidence of interconnections. The material presented here provides the initial framework needed for beginning to unravel the intricacies of Anatolian interaction with its neighbors to the northwest. |
