Description

The sixth international colloquium devoted to the Iron Age of Anatolia was convened at Eskisehir, Turkey, between 16-20 August 2004. As for previous such meetings, the ultimate goal of the Eskisehir gathering was to stimulate academic discussion and pique the curiosity of researchers whose interest lie primarily in the first half of the first millennium BC. The exchange of information and ideas was greatly facilitated by tours to sites that formed the perfect backdrop for many discussions and brought into sharper focus the issues raised by some of the papers. In publishing the revised version of the Eskisehir papers, we hope that this volume will serve as a useful survey on a wide range of critical issues - cultural, historical, chronological and geographical - that are currently shaping archaeological discourse on Iron Age Anatolia.
