Ancient Gordion, a significant Iron Age site in Anatolia and the eastern Mediterranean, has been extensively studied in terms of its archaeological occupation. However, the underlying factors that drove political and economic change at this site have yet to be thoroughly investigated. This book aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the political and economic histories that shaped the emergence of elite groups and their power consolidation at Gordion during the Iron Age (1200-300 BCE).
The volume utilizes geochemical and typological analysis of nearly 2000 Late Bronze Age to Hellenistic ceramic samples to contextualize this primary dataset. By examining ceramic production, consumption, exchange, and emulation, the book sheds light on the broader economic, social, and ritual practices that contributed to the formation of complex societies.
The book synthesizes various site data sets to provide a comprehensive understanding of the pivotal role played by groups and their economic, social, and ritual practices in the creation of complex societies. It contributes to our knowledge of the Iron Age world by offering insights into the political dynamics, economic systems, and social structures that prevailed in this period.
Overall, this book is a valuable resource for scholars and researchers interested in ancient history, archaeology, and social dynamics. It provides a detailed examination of Gordion's political and economic history and sheds light on the processes that shaped the development of complex societies in the ancient world.
