The Uşakli Höyük survey project (2008-2012) : a final report
Abstract
This book presents the results of the survey conducted by the University of Florence, in the years 2008-2012, at the site and in the surrounding territory of Uşaklı Höyük on the central Anatolian plateau in Turkey.
[...]
Geological, geomorphological, topographic and geophysical research have provided new information and data relating to the environment and the settlement landscape, as well as producing new maps of the area and indicating the presence of large buried buildings on the site. Analysis of the rich corpus of pottery collected from the surface indicates that the site and its territory were continuously settled from the late Early Bronze Age through the Iron Age and down to the Late Roman and Byzantine periods. A few fragments of cuneiform tablets with Hittite texts, a sealing with two impressions of a stamp seal, and pottery stamps illustrate the importance of Uşaklı Höyük and support the hypothesis of its identification with the town of Zippalanda, known from the Hittite sources as a seat of the cult of the Storm God. Stefania Mazzoniis full Professor of Archaeology and Art History of the Ancient Near East at the University of Florence. She directs the archaeological mission at Uşakli Höyük and has investigated various aspects of the Bronze and Iron Age material culture and arts of Syria and Anatolia.Franca Pecchioli Daddiwas full Professor of Hittitology at the University of Florence and a committed scholar of Anatolian studies; she carried out research into the administrative institutions and the cults of the Hittite period.
