Marked Objects From Apliki Karamallos, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Marked Objects From Apliki Karamallos, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
The study of Cypriot Late Bronze Age (LBA) writing had reached one of its apogees in the summer of 1939, when Joan du Plat Taylor undertook excavations at Apliki Karamallos. Publication of the Swedish Cyprus Expedition's reports and new discoveries by Schaeffer at Enkomi and the Americans at Kourion Bamboula had shrugged off the mantle of dormancy imposed by the first World War; by the mid '30's, scholarship on the origins and uses of writing on LBA Cyprus was in full swing. Evans (1935), Persson (1932 and 1937), and Schaeffer (1936) published important studies, and Casson (1937 and 1939) …
Joan Du Plat Taylor: The Road To Apliki, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Joan Du Plat Taylor: The Road To Apliki, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
Thirty-two-year-old Joan du Plat Taylor and her friend Judith Dobell [Stylianou] must have created a stir when they arrived at the field offices of the Cyprus Mining Corporation in 1938. For one thing, Joan probably drove, and the sight of an English-woman driving would have been cause enough for comment among the villagers. The few photographs of Joan's cars which survive depict vehicles overflowing with the accoutrements of field excavation, large bundles tied to the roof and hanging off the rear of the wagon. And always dogs perched among the piles of baggage. The road up the Marathasa Valley was …
Marks On Pots: Patterns Of Use In The Archaeological Record At Enkomi, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Marks On Pots: Patterns Of Use In The Archaeological Record At Enkomi, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
Marks scratched or painted on the Late Bronze Age (LBA) pottery of the eastern Mediterranean are often highly visible elements of the ceramic assemblage because of their bold rendering and prominent placement (fig. 1). Nevertheless, often they have been overlooked. In those instances where they have been noted, interest in them has been primarily epigraphical. Certainly some of the potmarks are connected somehow with contemporary writing systems. But all of them, signs of script or not, have some reason(s) for being painted or incised on certain vases. This paper begins the process of looking systematically for those reasons.
Die Kyprominoische Schrift: Texte Und Kontexte, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Die Kyprominoische Schrift: Texte Und Kontexte, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
Vor 199 Jahren veröffentlichte Josef von Hammer die erste moderne Entdeckung einer in die Steinwand eines Grabes im antiken Paphos (Kouklia) eingemeißelten kyprisch-syllabischen Inschrift. Die weiteren Funde mit dieser Schrift versehener Objekte häuften sich rapide und 1852 publizierte Honoré Albert de Luynes die erste wissenschaftliche Studie der kyprischen Schriften, 1869 wurde in Dhali eine Bilingue mit der lokalen Schrift und Phönizisch gefunden. Sie erwies sich als Schlüssel zur Entzifferung.
The Cypro-Minoan Corpus Project Wins Best Of Show Award, J. S. Smith, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
The Cypro-Minoan Corpus Project Wins Best Of Show Award, J. S. Smith, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
The tum of the millennium also marks a century of study of the undeciphered Late Bronze Age script of Cyprus, Cypro-Minoan. In 1909, Sir Arthur Evans labeled it "Cypro-Minoan" based on its visual similarity to the linear scripts he found at Knossos on Crete. We began to discuss the need for a detailed corpus of Cypro-Minoan a decade ago when we both attended a seminar on ancient Cypriot writing conducted by Thomas G. Palaima of the Program in Aegean Scripts and Prehistory (PASP) at the University of Texas at Austin. We went on separately to pursue specific problems in the …
Appendix G: Trireme Warfare In Thucydides, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Appendix G: Trireme Warfare In Thucydides, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
Ships, sea battles, and naval policy are key features in Thucydides' account of the Peloponnesian War. Thucydides—who served as a general and commanded a squadron of triremes himself (4.104.4-5; 4.106.3)—clearly viewed naval power as the key to supremacy in the Aegean (1.15); Athens' rise to empire and fall from glory was inextricably bound with her fortunes at sea.

Incised Marks (Post-Firing) On Aegean Wares, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Incised Marks (Post-Firing) On Aegean Wares, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
The practice of incising potmarks into LH and LM III vessels after firing is not only distinctive but also a peculiar and limited Cypriot phenomenon. A close examination of the types of vessels marked in this way and their distribution should provide some clues to patterns of trade between the Aegean and eastern Mediterranean. The work I present here is still very much in progress, and I welcome suggestions and criticisms.
Fine Tuning: An Analysis Of Bronze Age Potmarks As Clues To Maritime Trade, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Fine Tuning: An Analysis Of Bronze Age Potmarks As Clues To Maritime Trade, Nicolle E. Hirschfeld
Classical Studies Faculty Research
One of many puzzling questions facing archaeologists working in the eastern Mediterranean deals with the organization of trade during the Late Bronze Age (LBA). This is the time of the New Kingdom-the period of Tutankhamun and Ramses—in Egypt, the Hittite empire in Anatolia and parts of the Near East, and the age of the heroes of the Trojan war. Palace archives, treaties inscribed on public monuments, and murals painted on walls testify to extensive economic ties between these powers. Archaeological excavations also provide a glimpse of the types and quantities of trade-items and their distribution. These sources give some indication …
The World Of The Greek Philosophers: A Reappraisal, Robert S. Brumbaugh
The World Of The Greek Philosophers: A Reappraisal, Robert S. Brumbaugh
The Society for Ancient Greek Philosophy Newsletter
In this account of an encounter with the surviving traces of the world of the Greek philosophers* and ray own discovery of their relevance to the ideas that originated and were tested there, I have three purposes in mind. The first Is to start a discussion of ancient thought in its context; such topics as "the world" are somewhat out of style, and yet our more specialized studies presuppose such a world and can go wrong if the general presuppositions are mistaken. % second purpose is to persuade our Society that it Is necessary for us to keep track of …
