65. Tell Shiyukh Tahtani
2016
This volume presents the long history of Syria through a jouney of the most important and recently-excavated archaeological sites. The sites cover over 1.8 million years and all regions in Syria; 110 academics have contributed information on 103 excavations for this volume. Based on these contributions the volume offers a detailed summary of the history of Syria, a history as important as any in terms of the development of human society. It is hoped that this knowledge will offer not only an increased understanding of the country but also act as a deterrent to the destruction of Syrian cultural heritage and facilitate the protection of Syrian sites.
Słowo, które staje się obrazem, w tradycji chrześcijan syryjskich
2017
Artykuł podejmuje problematykę sztuki figuratywnej w teologicznej przestrzeni tradycji Kościołów syryjskich. Chociaż wspólnoty te w początkowym stadium rozwoju stanowiły integralną część Cesarstwa Wschodniorzymskiego, to jednak wypracowały zupełnie inny model obrazowania, którym nie są ikony czy też inne formy malarskie. Głównym sposobem malowania teologii było dla Syryjczyków słowo. Taki stan rzeczy nie wynikał bezpośrednio z odziedziczonego po judaizmie zakazu wyobrażeń sacrum czy jakiegoś wewnętrznego ikonoklazmu, ale z mentalności i wrażliwości ludów Bliskiego Wschodu. Autor, odwołując się do trzech pisarzy syryjskich – Efrema, Afrahata i Jakuba z Sarug – prezentuje kilka przykładów tek…
Early Syrian Bottles
2014
Near Eastern archaeologists are accustomed today to labelling as “Syrian bottles” various kinds of oil/perfume fasks that enjoyed a wide popularity in Syria during the 3rd millennium. Owing to the volatile nature of their contents and the lack of archeometric analysis it has not been possible so far to ascertain whether these vessels were scent or unguent vases. Whatever the case, since they have been found far afeld from the core region of production it is clear that they were a luxury item of long-distance trade and are thus today – if possible misattributions are discarded – a valuable indicator of exchange networks and for establishing synchronisms among distant areas of the ancient Nea…
Tell Shiyukh Tahtani. New light on the Bronze Age sequence
2014
This report briefly describes the latest results of the Italian rescue excavations at Shiyukh Tahtani on the Upper Syrian Euphrates. Fieldwork continued on the eastern slope of the mound, aiming to further investigate the Bronze Age levels. A main operation, halfway down the slope, focused upon the earliest MB I layers, where a group of burials was unearthed, mostly consisting of adult interments in oval pits and child pot burials. A most striking finding was the ‘Spinstress tomb’. At the foot of the slope, the exploration of a mud-brick compound, dating back to the early third millennium BC, continued. Here further remarkable evidence of massive domestic architecture in a fine Mesopotamian…
Plain and luxury wares of the third millennium BC in the Carchemish region: two case-studies from Tell Shiyukh Tahtani
2007
In the last decades the large number of salvage excavations undertaken in north Syria and southeastern Anatolia has generated much interest regarding the role that the culture of the Big Bend of the Euphrates River played during the 3rd millennium BC. the aim of the present paper is to examine some particular pottery assemblages of the second half of the 3rd millennium which can be relevant for a discussion about a putative Carchemish region in the Early Bronze Age.
Collapse or Continuity? The case of the EB-MB transition at Tell Shiyukh Tahtani
2007
La fin du Troisieme Millenaire est, dans l'histoire du Proche-Orient ancien, une periode sujette a contro¬verses car, selon les regions, elle connalt soil une disintegration et un effondrement culturels, soil une conti¬nuite et un developpement urbains. Le tableau general de la situation reste confus, particulierement en. Syrie, ou it a fait /'objet d'un grand nombre de theories et de modeles d'interpretation. La periode de "transition" entre le Bronze Ancien et le Bronze Moyen est ici consideree du point de vue d'un petit site rural de la vallee de l'Euphrate en Syrie du Nord, Tell Shiyukh Tahtani. Les fouilles recentes realisees par l'Universite de Palerme y ant mis au jour une longue seq…

Double Marginalized Lives as Woman and as Refugee: Syrian Female Refugees in Ankara
2020
Este tesis establece cómo las refugiadas sirias son social, económica, cultural, étnica y sexualmente marginadas y lo que piensan acerca de los eventos en curso, su estado y los pasos que el gobierno y las ONGs han tomado hasta ahora para dar soluciones a la invisibilización de las mujeres en la esfera pública. Para ello, he llevado a cabo esta investigación en los suburbios de Ankara con un grupo de refugiadas sirias que están socialmente excluidas como “mujer'” y como “refugiada” y con un grupo de mujeres locales. La atención se centrará en la relación entre los discursos producidos en la sociedad de acogida y la exclusión social de las refugiadas sirias. Cabe señalar que la fuente de los…
