ISBN: CATALOG: Archaeology KEYWORDS: Archaeology Anatolian civilizations Excavation Sagalassos Burdur photography Extending over the mountainous terrain of Aglasun Mountain in southern Turkey (approx. 150 km north of Antalya) at an elevation of 2045 m, the city of Sagalassos, which once belonged to the ancient region of Pisidia, enjoyed natural protection due to its prominent location. This elevated site was also well provided with natural spring water, making it an ideal choice for settlement. The city, which was probably intially inhabited in the 5th century BC, is first mentioned historically in connection with the campaigns of Alexander the Great, who defeated the Sagalassians in 333 BC. In the 2nd century AD in particular, Sagalassos experienced an enormous increase in prosperity, coinciding with the Emperor Hadrian's selection of the city as the centre of the Pisidian Imperial cult. First rediscovered by a French traveller in 1706, Sagalassos was visited by a number of Western explorers throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Exploratory excavation began in 1987, culminating in an intensive excavation campaign at Sagalassos intiated in 1993 under the direction of the Belgian archaeologist Marc Waelkens. Lavishly illustrated with 99 splendid plates by Ahmet Ertug, the book provides an overview of the ancient history, architecture, sculpture, and pottery of the site, as well as the history of its discovery and subsequent exploration. The texts, written by leading scholars in the field, are accessible both to the non-specialist and to the professional, while the illustrations, ranging from breath-taking panoramic overviews of the landscape to minute details of sculptural elements, reinforce Sagalassos' claim to have been one of the leading cities of Asia minor. The book provides an exemplary overview of the site and its monuments. 34x47 cm, 208 pages. 99 full-colour plates and additional plans; Printed in Germany and hand-bound in Switzerland, the volume is presented in a slipcase.

Hardcover. Condición: New. SMITH, R. R. R. (Text by) - AHMET ERTUG (Photography by) Ancient theaters of Anatolia. Istanbul: Ertug & Kocabiyik (Borusan), 2014. Oblong folio (35x48 cm.), 205 p.,color photos. Original binding. In the original slip-case. New Oversize and very heavy volume. Please contact for postage cost. ISBN: 9780…954807764 CATALOG: Archaeology KEYWORDS: Archaeology Anatolian civilizations photography Ertug & Kocabiyik Publications presents its latest book Ancient Theaters of Anatolia. Penned by R.R.R Smith, Lincoln Professor of Classical Archaeology and Art at Oxford University, and Director of the Aphrodisias Excavations in Turkey, the book features stunning photographs of Ahmet Ertug. Many of the extraordinary images were photographed with an 8 x 10 inch large-format camera, and show these well-preserved theaters in exceptional detail. The book starts with an introduction on the theater in classical antiquity, and then describes sixteen outstanding theatres individually. This is probably the first time that such combined high-level academic and photographic documentation has been devoted to the extraordinary legacy of theater building in Anatolia. The book is 205 pages long, in landscape format, with a page size of 33 x 46 cm and 174 color plates, showing both details and panoramic views. Striking photographs of many of the high-quality statues and friezes that decorated the theaters are also included in the book. By the second century AD, at the height of the long peace enforced by Rome, most self-respecting ancient cities in the Mediterranean region had a theatre building. Most of the theaters presented in this book belong to, or were re-conditioned in this period. Most survive in their second-century form but have long archaeological histories of re-design and addition that stretch back to the Hellenistic period. Theaters were among the largest, most imposing structures in ancient cities. Their capacity varied greatly, from 2,000 to 20,000, but most boasted a tall monumental stage-building that reared up from the surrounding cityscape - with austere masonry on the outside and majestic tiers of columns inside. Many are astonishingly well-preserved. 'Theater' has the double sense of both an institution and a building. Indeed, drama was a developed practice long before it had the building form we know and recognize as a theatre. Drama grew out of choral performance at religious festivals in honor of Dionysos, and evolved into the exciting new medium of staged tragedy and comedy. Dramatic plays soon came to share the theater first with the citizen assembly, and then under the Roman empire, with arena games - the highly popular gladiator combats and wild-beast hunts mounted in honor of the emperor. Theater building underwent a long evolution, from an irregular hillside auditorium to a proper architectural design in the Greek period, and then to a new, fully integrated form in the Roman period. The interplay of traditional Hellenistic design and new Roman design was one of the main aspects of theatre building in Anatolia in the first and second centuries AD. Many of the theaters in this book, often those in more remote locations (Sagalassos, Selge, and Termessos), remained as they had been left at the end of antiquity - unoccupied, with collapsed stage building and well-preserved auditorium, partly covered only by vegetation and fallen masonry. They present remarkable ruinscapes that are vivid testimony to antiquity's deep-rooted theater culture and to the great durability of ancient building techniques. The theatre remained one of the most vibrant institutions of the eastern provinces under the Roman empire, especially in the prosperous cities of western Anatolia. More than 100 ancient theaters are known within modern Turkey. Their distribution follows the pattern of urbanism in the Roman period. Most are found in the cities of the Aegean and south coast, and the best-preserved are in the wealthy Roman provinces of Asia.

Hardcover. Condición: New. SMITH, R. R. R. (Text) - AHMET ERTUG (Photos) Gods of Nemrud: The Royal Sanctuary of Antiochos I & the Kingdom of Commagene. Istanbul: Ertug & Kocabiyik (Borusan), 2012. Oblong 4to. (35x48 cm), 196 p., 95 color plates, 37 ills. In English. Original cloth binding. In the original slipcase. New Oversize…and very heavy volume. Please contact for postage cost. ISBN: 9780954807740 CATALOG: Archaeology KEYWORDS: Archaeology Anatolian civilizations Commagene photography A unique complex of archaeological material survives from Commagene in the first century BC. It derives from a local king, Antiochos I, and is of great interest in itself and for the study of ancient religion and art. The material consists of a large body of monumental sculpture, statues and reliefs and voluminous inscriptions about the king and his gods. The monuments are unique in their quantity, and in being precisely dated and identified. Together the texts and images provide an unrivalled opportunity for getting close to the quality and texture of an ancient cult. Antiochos I of Commagene (c. 69-36 BC) belonged at the tail-end of Hellenistic monarchy and the beginning of Roman rule in Syria and Eastern Anatolia. The scholarly text by R.R.R. Smith describes the geography and political history of Antiochos kingdom, and looks at the archaeology of his sanctuaries and his royal cult as known from inscriptions. Exquisite photography by Ahmet Ertug concentrates on some of the best preserved sculpture from two sites, Nemrud Dag and Arsameia and expresses in a new way the distinctive character and impact of these extraordinary monuments. Roman mosaics from Zeugma on the Euphrates are also included in the book. The large picture mosaics discovered in the Zeugma houses during the rescue excavations of the 1990s are sensational. They continue the tradition of Hellenistic mosaic floors with pictorial scenes of mythology, allegory, and marine fantasy, and constitute a missing link in the second century AD between picture mosaics of the later Hellenistic period and of Late Antiquity. The photography of Ahmet Ertug in this beautifully printed book will bring readers into a spectacular and less familiar landscape of the ancient world, one that felt itself already in Antiquity to be perched at the bridgehead between West and East. The photographs in the book were printed with special inks, and all color-separation and proofing was done at the digital darkroom of Ahmet Ertug. The book is 34 x 47cms in landscape format, and has 196 pages, 95 color plates and 37 figures. Printed in Germany, hardbound in Switzerland with exquisite cloth, presented in slipcase.

ISBN: 9780954807733 CATALOG: Architecture & Urban studies KEYWORDS: Architecture History of art This enchanting and important book presents the art of the internationally famous architectural photographer, Ahmet Ertug in his latest folio, capturing the spatial essence of that most defining symbol of architecture, the Dome. The book is a journey through architectural history, from the immense spherical dome of the first-century Roman Pantheon, its oculus open to the sky, to the steel and glass of Norman Foster's Bundestag, Berlin, one of the most visited new architectural structures in the world. Along the way, are the domes of Byzantium including the Hagia Sophia, its dome pierced with lunette windows that make it seemingly float by magic, the mighty domes of the Middle Ages, the Renaissance and the Baroque, each presenting its architect with the greatest of all structural challenges - Brunelleschi's Florence Cathedral, Michelangelo's St Peter's, Sir Christopher Wren's St Pauls' in London, and the iron and glass domes of nineteenth-century France. The text, by leading authorities in their field, relates the extraordinary and unique stories behind each, explaining the structural principles and the fascinating tales of human, social and personal strife, by the architects and craftsmen from ancient Rome to the present day. More than any other architectural element, domes have facets of structure, vision, representations of heaven, iconography and acoustics, all involving the greatest names in architectural history. The expansive photography of Ahmet Ertug captures the spatial vision of 27 famous domes, all of them visually stunning and all with a story to tell.

ISBN: CATALOG: Archaeology KEYWORDS: Archaeology Excavation Anatolian civilizations Aphrodisias History of art Aphrodisias was a free and autonomous city within the Roman province of Asia, in Western Turkey. It was best known for the sanctuary of its patron goddess, Aphrodite, and for its marble sculptors. The community prospered under the early and middle Roman empire (first-second centuries AD) , when it built a complete set of marble buildings that made the town a proper city in ancient eyes. Aphrodisias sheds valuable light on interaction between Greek and Roman identity, the functioning of empire, religious conflict and accommodation, and transition from antiquity to the Middle Ages. Aphrodisian sculptors are known to have worked abroad on prestigious commissions, for example, at Hadrian's villa at Tivoli. The surviving body of sculpture is rich and varied. There are statues of gods, heroes, emperors, benefactors, philosophers, and athletes, as well as mythological groups, decorativefigures, and ornamental and figured relief sculptures. Many of the key pieces occupy key positions in the history of Roman art. The sculpture of the city is a legacy of unrivalled importance in this field. The archaeology of Aphrodisias gives a fuller, more vivid picture of later classical art in its ancient context than is possible at any other site.
