In this issue

About 3000 years ago, the Near East was under the control of the
Assyrian Empire, who was the most powerful group in the region
with its trade routes, harbors and all of its area of exploitation. The
Urartian Kingdom, who settled around the Lake Van basin, was the
only political organization to rival the Assyrian Empire and played an
important role in the socio-cultural and socio-political development
of the region. They managed to adapt a well-equipped central state
system and developed a perfect bureaucratic state system for unsettled
societies. They were also the creator of a homogenous cultural
structure varying from architecture to handicrafts.

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.
