Ancient Gordion has long been recognized as a key Iron Age site for
Anatolia and the eastern Mediterranean. Archaeological research has
revealed much about its sequence of occupation. However, as yet no
study has explored the underlying drivers of political and economic
change at this site. This volume presents an overview of the
political and economic histories supporting emergent elites and how
they constructed power at Gordion during the Iron Age (1200-300
BCE). Based on geochemical and typological analysis of nearly 2000
Late Bronze Age to Hellenistic ceramic samples, the volume
contextualizes this primary dataset through the lens of ceramic
production, consumption, exchange and emulation. Synthesizing site
data sets, the volume more broadly contributes to our understanding
of the pivotal role of groups and their economic, social, and
ritual practices in the creation of complex societies.
