The project, which began in 2003, has unearthed a multitude of graffiti and drawings encompassing a wide range of subjects and interests, including local politics, nautical vessels, sex, and wordplay. Each graffito artifact holds the potential for vast historical and cultural data, rescued in this volume from the passage of time and razing ambitions of urban development. Given the city's history, the potential wealth of knowledge to be gleamed from these discoveries is substantial: Smyrna has an uninterrupted history of settlement since the Neolithic-Copper ages, and remains today a major city and Mediterranean seaport at the crossroads of key trade routes. The present volume provides comprehensive editions of the texts, descriptions of the drawings, and an extensive introduction to the subjects of the graffiti, how they were produced, and who was responsible for them. A complete set of color photographs is included. -- Amazon.com.ChristianismeTurquie4e siecleSourcesramBasiliquesTurquieIzmir (Turquie)ramFouilles archeologiquesTurquieIzmir (Turquie)ramGraffitiTurquieIzmir (Turquie)ramAntiquitiesfast(OCoLC)fst00810745Excavations (Archaeology)fast(OCoLC)fst00917564Graffitifast(OCoLC)fst00945846Excavations (Archaeology)TurkeyİzmirGraffitiTurkeyİzmirIzmir (Turquie)AntiquitesramTurkeyİzmirfastİzmir (Turkey)AntiquitiesChristianismeSources.BasiliquesFouilles archeologiquesGraffitiAntiquities.Excavations (Archaeology)Graffiti.Excavations (Archaeology)Graffiti939/.23Yolaçan BurakcolTanriver CumhuredtErsoy AkinedtCasagrande-Kim RobertaedtBagnall Roger Shaler(1947- ...)edtMdBmJHUPMdBmJHUPBOOK9910136842503321Graffiti from the Basilica in the Agora of Smyrna2845148UNINA
