Karia and the Dodekanese, Vol. II, presents new research that
highlights cultural interrelations and connectivity in the
Southeast Aegean and western Asia Minor over a period of more than
700 years. Throughout antiquity, this region was a dynamic meeting
place for eastern and western civilizations. Modern geographical
limitations have been influential on both archaeological
investigations and how we approach cultural relations in the
region. Comprehensive and valuable research has been carried out on
many individual sites in Karia and the Dodekanese, but the results
have rarely been brought together in an attempt to paint a larger
picture of the culture of this region. In antiquity, the sea did
not constitute an obstacle to interaction between societies and
cultures, but was an effective means of communication for the
exchange of goods, sculptural styles, architectural form and
embellishment, education, and ideas. It is clear that close
relations existed between the Dodekanese and western Asia Minor
during the Classical period (Vol. I), but these relations were
evidently further strengthened under the shifting political
influences of the Hellenistic kings, the Roman Empire, and the
cosmopolitan late antique period. The contributions in this volume
comprise investigations on urbanism, architectural form and
embellishment, sculpture, pottery, and epigraphy.
