    New Inscriptions from the Smintheion
    (Akdeniz Universitesi - Akdeniz Dillerini ve Kulturlerini Arastirma Merkezi, 2023) Özhan, Tolga; Kaplan, Davut
    This article presents six inscriptions from the sanctuary of Apollo Smintheus. Of these, inscription no. 2 was discovered during a survey in 2006 and the other five were found during the excavations at the site from 2009 onwards. In addition to the contribution of these inscriptions to the onomastic repertoire of Alexandreia Troas in general, inscription no. 1, which attests for the first time to the existence of the office of hieronomos at the sanctuary, and inscription no. 6, which records a religious association called ???? ????????? are of particular interest. Inscription no. 1 is carved on an architectural block from a building of the Hellenistic period. It is not possible to determine with certainty to which building this block belongs, but the building or restoration costs were covered by the revenues of the god, and this construction activity is dated by the office of hieronomos. Also dating to the Hellenistic period, inscription no. 2 on an altar commemorates Kallistos, son of Agemachos, after his death. The depiction of a temple key on this altar suggests that Kallistos may have served Apollo Smintheus as a key-bearer. In inscription no. 3, a benefactor named Titus Aelius Metrodoros, bearing the title philopatris, is honoured by his dearest fatherland (????????? ??????), Alexandreia Troas. Inscription no. 4 on a marble plinth is a dedication of a column to Apollo Smintheus by Publius Quintilius Axios, probably a freedman of the Publii branch of the Quintilii, a senatorial family of Alexandreia Troas, and his wife Daphne. Inscription no. 5 is a dedication to Apollo Smintheus by Turianius Gamos, which is a variant of the rare nomen Turrianius. The final inscription no. 6 is an ex-voto dedicated to a sacred association (???? ?????????) by a person, for whom only the father's name and the nickname, Publius, have survived. © 2023, Akdeniz Universitesi - Akdeniz Dillerini ve Kulturlerini Arastirma Merkezi.

    SMINTHEION EXCAVATIONS IN 2023
    (T.C. Kültür ve Turizm Bakanlığı, 2025) Yaman, Hüseyin; Kaplan, Davut
    This paper presents the results of the 2023 excavations conducted in the Smintheion, which is one of the most important cultic sites in the Troad. Since the beginning of the excavations, structures such as the Temple of Apollo Smintheus, baths, water reservoirs, and dwellings have revealed a wealth of information about the cultures and customs throughout history, including prehistory, antiquity, and late antiquity. In addition to the structures mentioned above, the necropolises also provide valuable information regarding social and religious life. As a result, excavations at the necropolis, which were temporarily carried out between 1989 and 1991, were restarted in the 2023 at a site approximately 400 meters north-northwest of the temple, representing a continuous portion of the previously excavated site. Excavations in three seperate trenches focused on the boundary between the residential area and the necropolis. The first trench uncovered a north-south-oriented chamber tomb with a burial cist holding numerous burials. The artefacts unearthed within the tomb have a wide range of dates, beginning in the late 4th or mid-3rd century BC and continuing into the 4th century AD. A partially uncovered tomb was discovered northeast of the chamber tomb. The structure consisted of roof tiles. The second trench contained the remains of a sarcophagus base. In the northern section of the trench, a floor made of polygonal-shaped blocks was discovered. The last trench uncovered a kiln, likely associated with lime manufacturing. These findings suggest that the area served not only for burial purposes but also engaged in substantial economic activity, including lime manufacture, which was vital for construction and other industries. Further excavation and analysis may yield profound insights into the cultural and social aspects of the community that occupied this site. The geo-radar readings acquired in the vicinity indicate the presence of many walls of potential structure in this region

    SMINTHEION/GÜLPINAR ÖREN YERİ YERSEL FOTOGRAMETRİK YÖNTEMLERLE SAYISALLAŞTIRMA ÇALIŞMALARI
    (2023) Kaplan, Davut; Yuran, Ahmet
    Kuzeybatı Anadolu’da yer alan Smintheion/Gülpınar ören yerinde 40 yılı aşkın bir süredir devam eden çalışmalar sonunda önemli arkeolojik yapılar ortaya çıkarılmış, ören yeri sahip olduğu potansiyeli ile ülkemiz arkeoloji çalışmalarına önemli katkılar sunmuştur. Arkeoloji biliminin değişik alanlarında uzmanlaşan çok sayıda bilim adamı ile birlikte, mimarlık, epigrafi ve restorasyon alanındaki uzmanlar için de önemli bir çalışma sahası olarak öne çıkan Smintheion’da geçtiğimiz yıl içerisinde arkeoloji bilimi ile mühendislik bilimlerinin ortak çalışması sonucu başarılı sonuçlar elde edilmiştir. Burada başta haritalama ve kent planı oluşturulması olmak üzere, üç boyutlu modellemeler ve fotogrametrik çalışmalar yapılmış, ören yerinin sayısallaştırılması amacıyla veriler toplanmıştır. Bu doğrultuda araziye uygun yöntemler belirlenerek, modern cihazlar yardımıyla bir çok ölçüm yapılmış, yapılan ölçümler sonucunda elde edilen veriler dijital ortamda işlenerek Smintheion/Gülpınar’da yapılmış olan ya da yapılacak olan arkeolojik çalışmalar için altlık oluşturulmuştur. Bu kısa çalışma boyunca Smintheion’da yapılan bu sayısallaştırma çalışmaları uygulanan yöntemlerle birlikte ele alınacak ve elde edilen sonuçlar aktarılacaktır.
