In this issue

Anatolia is one of the most important territories where people
developed a new way of life, began to live in communal structures,
and cultivated plants and domesticated animals. This process began
in Anatolia and some places of the Near East 12 thousand years ago,
and remained in the same region for 3 thousand years and completed
its development. Since 9 thousand years ago, we see that this new life
style was transferred to other regions and became global. The city,
the state and the empire, which we can introduce as the descendants
of this continuing process, are the unavoidable result of this new lifestyle.
This new situation brought forth the restructuring of life, from
technology to belief systems, from subsistence to lifeways, from social
organization to economic order and viewpoints about the world and
the environment.

Actual Archaeology Magazine-Anatolia Description:

Publisher: Aktüel-Arkeoloji-Basın-Yayıncılık-Turizm-Org.-Ltd.-Şti.

Category: Art

Language: English

Frequency: Quarterly

Turkey, with its cultural variety which is increasing in history, has an important structural group of monumental buildings, ranging from the caves to the first temple of the world, from city walls to castles, towers to obelisks, churches to mosques, madrasah, hospitals, hans and baths, fountains, tombs to mausoleums, palaces, mansions and waterside residences. This multicoloured cultural mosaic, which bears the traces of every level of the history, deserves to be called as “super power”.

Known as the cradle of numerous civilizations for thousands of years, Anatolia is one of the most important centers in history. It has hosted many different cultures, languages and religions, faced several migrations and battles, and witnessed the foundation and the fall of civilizations.

Aktüel Arkeoloji aims: firstly, to inform the general public about archaeological investigations, cultural treasures and the heritage of Anatolia; secondly, to share this heritage, which we accept as being of global value, with the whole world. To understand the world’s history, firstly we should explore the entire history of Anatolian civilizations. Beside scientific researches in an interdisciplinary setting, recent archaeological excavations and the surveys conducted in Anatolia have been further extending the understanding of the archaeology and the cultural heritage of Anatolia.
