The Sagalassos Project

Sagalassos is an impressive archaeological site set in a magnificent mountain landscape, 7 km to the north of the nearest town of Ağlasun (province of Burdur, SW Turkey). The archaeological remains are spread along the south facing terraces of the mountain slopes.

Every year, for the last 25 years - a team from Belgium have been researching Sagalossos.
Unfortunately most of their findings and articles are in Dutch but if you would like to contact them I am sure they will speak English:

Dag Vrienden van Sagalassos,

Nu onze tweede campagne week aangebroken is, wordt het tijd om jullie mee te geven wat onze plannen zijn dit jaar in Sagalassos. Als alles volgens schema verloopt zullen we tot een eind in september in het veld zijn. Er staat dus heel wat te gebeuren!

Zoals de laatste jaren de gewoonte is, zetten we het onderzoek naar de oorsprong van Sagalassos dapper verder. Dapper is het juiste woord, want de eerste opgraving die in dit kader past, betreft niets minder dan een fort gelegen op 1885 m hoogte. Een flink pak hoger dan Sagalassos zelf dus en dat was ook de bedoeling. Deze versterking maakte immers deel uit van de militaire verdediging van de stad op de bergflank die boven Sagalassos uittorent. Het zal bloed, zweet en tranen kosten om hier op te graven, maar we hopen voldoende materiaal te kunnen verzamelen om het detail van de constructie en voornamelijk de chronologie ervan te mogen vastleggen. Periodes waarin gemeenschappen systemen van verdediging aanleggen of herwerken zijn immers vaak sleutelmomenten in de lokale geschiedenis. We zijn bijzonder benieuwd hoe ver terug in de tijd we zullen geraken.

Met goede moed zullen we een stukje berg opgraven.

Ook de nieuwe opgravingen op het Marktgebouw, dat zich uitstrekt langs de oostzijde van de Bovenste Agora, sluiten aan bij het onderzoek naar de oorspronkelijke fase van urbanisering. In 2015 hebben we vastgesteld dat zich hier een bijzonder goed bewaard en omvangrijk gebouw bevindt, waarvan de façade op bepaalde plaatsen nog een kleine 6 m hoog staat. Bovendien kunnen we de geschiedenis ervan volgen sinds de oprichting in de vroege tweede eeuw v. Chr. tot in de zesde eeuw na. Dit jaar zullen we voornamelijk in de oostelijke vleugel van het gebouw werken, waarbij we hopen de organisatie in het gebouw beter te begrijpen, de functionele veranderingen ervan in kaart te brengen, en - als alles mee zit - een tip van de sluier op te lichten aangaande de oorspronkelijke, Hellenistische fase. Martgebouwen komen wel meer voor in de streek in deze periode, maar het exemplaar van Sagalassos is bijzonder groot. Naast opslagmogelijkheden, bood deze structuur wellicht ook ruimte voor werkplaatsen en winkels. De gaanderij op de bovenste verdieping was een ontmoetingsplaats voor de gemeenschap waar personen van verschillende rang en stand onderling zaken konden doen. Dit alles in een context georganiseerd door het lokale bestuur. Het kloppende hart van Hellenistisch Sagalassos dus.

Update:

SAGALASSOS ALS ENERGIEVEELVRAAT
Van voeding tot hout, Dries Daems en Sam Cleymans brengen in kaart hoe een antieke stad als Sagalassos afhankelijk was van haar omringende landschap. Wat was de draagkracht van het landschap? En botste de stad ooit op haar grenzen?

Meanwhile in the Mountains: Sagalassos
Yapı Kredi Culture and Art


Yapı Kredi Cultural Activities, Arts and Publishing Inc. is hosting the exhibition “Meanwhile in the Mountains: Sagalassos”. Occupying three floors at Yapı Kredi Cultural Centre in Beyoğlu, the exhibition introduces visitors to the ancient city of Sagalassos, founded on the southern slopes of the Taurus mountain range, and the history of the region of Pisidia. The most comprehensive archaeological project carried out in recent years “Meanwhile in the Mountains: Sagalassos” is the result of a collaboration of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, the Directorate General for Cultural Heritage and Museums and KU Leuven University, Belgium, and their support of the Sagalassos Archaeological Research Project. Displaying 368 objects from Burdur Archaeology Museum, the exhibition is open to visitors at Yapı Kredi Cultural Centre 27 November 2019 – 28 May 2020. One of the best-preserved ancient cities of the Mediterranean, Sagalassos is included in the Tentative List of UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

From Statues of Gods and Goddesses to Mammoth Bones
The exhibition, “Meanwhile in the Mountains: Sagalassos”, contains many and divergent historical objects: from mammoth bones from the Burdur region proving that they lived in prehistorical Anatolia, to the massive statues of the Roman emperors Marcus Aurelius and Hadrian. Objects like the terracotta figurines of gods, goddesses and heroes reflecting belief rituals, a statuette of Alexander the Great, stone tools, decorative items, cooking and food vessels from Sagalassos and the region of Pisidia from different periods, shed a light on the past and the daily and social life of the residents of ancient Sagalassos and these can be viewed in chronological and thematic sections covering three floors at the Yapı Kredi Cultural Centre.

CURRENT RESEARCH PROJECTS
The currently ongoing research projects carried out by members of the Sagalassos Archaeological Research Project

C14/22/036 The urban-rural systems of Late Hellenistic to Roman Imperial Sagalassos and present day Ağlasun. Sustainability of urbanization in times of accelerated growth
This project explores the potential of ‘ordinariness’ in understanding environmental sustainability for past and present urbanization, offering promising insights for current climate policies. As most people live in understudied ordinary places, upscaling requires a better understanding of the latter. The case of Sagalassos/Ağlasun offers a unique opportunity for such analysis across time. The research hypothesis is that the region avoided overshoot and collapse through technological and socio-institutional adjustments. To test this, we will investigate socio-spatial restructuring and model resource use in the two periods of most intense urban growth (100 BCE-150 CE and 1950-2020), through a novel iterative combination of socio-spatial data gathering and analysis, life cycle assessment, computer visualization aided interpretation of results, and upscaling to the region through agent-based modelling.

SuRP+: Sustainability and Resilience in Past and Present Populations
Human impact on the environment has never been greater than today. The enormous drive of technological innovation and economic growth has fuelled the development of our modern-day society. The energy and resources needed to sustain these dynamics are derived from the natural environment. As our ecological footprint increases, we are now increasingly confronted with the downsides of this insatiable thirst for growth. However, the limits to energy and resources setting the boundaries for the development of social life have run as a common thread throughout human history. Ever since the 19th century, historians and archaeologists have been interested in studying the carrying capacity of societies and their environment, to varying degrees of success. The research group SuRP+ brings together young scholars from the humanities, environmental, earth and social sciences to develop new methodologies to understand the sustainability and resilience of past and present human populations. The group seeks to re-assess past and current approaches through the concept of social metabolism, encompassing the entirety of biophysical analysis of exchanges in energy and resources between society and nature. We will use historical data on, inter alia, foodways, dietary habits, production output, heating infrastructure, caloric needs, and agricultural and extraction technologies, to test newly developed methodologies. The basic premise of SuRP+ is that insight into the resilience strategies of past populations offers a suitable prism for comparing and interpreting contemporary issues in human-environment interactions.

FWO 3H180704: The earliest history of the Sagalassos study region. Investigating prehistoric human-environment interactions in the Western Taurus Mountains, SW-Turkey.
Until recently our current knowledge of prehistory in the study area was primarily based on evidence from a number of well-known Late Prehistoric (6500-2000 BC) settlements in the fertile plain areas such as Hacilar and Kuruçay Höyük. The latest archaeological survey of our project in the marginal mountainous areas in Dereköy, 7 km away from Sagalassos, revealed many previously unknown prehistoric and historic sites. One of the most remarkable outcomes of this survey was the discovery of Middle Paleolithic artefacts (200 000-45 000 BC), which pushes the evidence for the first human activities in the area far back in time. The most substantial concentration of such artefacts was found at the high plateau of Bey Dağları, between the modern villages of Dereköy and Hisar. This FWO research project focuses on this site and will investigate its archaeological potential. Further field research will aim to secure its dating, to get an impression of its use, and to retrieve data for environmental reconstruction. The research intends to contribute to a better prehistoric chronological framework and to a better understanding of prehistoric human activity and the pivotal developments associated with it (i.e. the dispersal of early humans).
