Archaeology and History of Lydia from Early Lydian Period to the Late Antiquity (8th Cent. B.C.-6th



The Izmir Center of the Archaeology of Western Anatolia (EKVAM) is glad to inform you that an international symposium on the region Lydia in western Turkey will take place on May 17-18, 2017 at the Dokuz Eylül University (DEU) in Izmir, Turkey. Lydia was an ancient region, located in inner western Anatolia, streching from today’s Turkish province of Manisa in the west to Uşak in the east. Since the book of C.H. Roosevelt, entitled “The Archaeology of Lydia, from Gyges to Alexander”, archaeologically and historically Lydia became a special focus in the fields of ancient Anatolian studies. We warmly invite contributions by scholars and graduate students from a variety of disciplines related to this region. The aim of this symposium is to report on the state of research concerning Lydia between c. 8th century B.C. and 6th century A.D. Intended to bring together scholars of archaeology, history, historical geography, epigraphy and other related disciplines in ancient Anatolian studies to discuss a range of issues concerning this region’s archaeology and history, this symposium should be an excellent opportunity to increase our knowledge about this región.

FECHA/DATE/DATA: 17-18/05/2017

ORGANIZADOR/ORGANIZER/ORGANIZZATORE: Professor Ergün Laflı (DEU, Izmir), Dr Sami Patacı (University of Ardahan), Dr Gülseren Kan Şahin (University of Sinop).
