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. 606 $aChristianisme$zTurquie$y4e siecle$xSources$2ram 606 $aBasiliques$zTurquie$zIzmir (Turquie)$2ram 606 $aFouilles archeologiques$zTurquie$zIzmir (Turquie)$2ram 606 $aGraffiti$zTurquie$zIzmir (Turquie)$2ram 606 $aAntiquities$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00810745 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00917564 606 $aGraffiti$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00945846 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zTurkey$zI?zmir 606 $aGraffiti$zTurkey$zI?zmir 607 $aIzmir (Turquie)$xAntiquites$2ram 607 $aTurkey$zI?zmir$2fast 607 $aI?zmir (Turkey)$xAntiquities 615 7$aChristianisme$xSources. 615 7$aBasiliques 615 7$aFouilles archeologiques 615 7$aGraffiti 615 7$aAntiquities. 615 7$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 7$aGraffiti. 615 7$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 7$aGraffiti 676 $a939/.23 702 $aYolac?an$b Burak$4col 702 $aTanriver$b Cumhur$4edt 702 $aErsoy$b Akin$4edt 702 $aCasagrande-Kim$b Roberta$4edt 702 $aBagnall$b Roger Shaler$f(1947- ...)$4edt 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910136842503321 996 $aGraffiti from the Basilica in the Agora of Smyrna$92845148 997 $aUNINA
