This book accounts for the results of fieldwork in Doliche, located
in Gaziantep, South East Turkey. Doliche was an important city of
ancient North Syria which continued to thrive into the Middle Ages.
For the first time, an international research project started to
explore the site in 2015. The chapters collected in this volume
discuss the main discoveries of the first seasons. It is divided in
two parts. The first part considers the main excavation results,
with a particular emphasis on a newly discovered early Christian
basilica and its decoration. This section also contains the first
comprehensive discussion of a newly discovered Roman Imperial
hypogeum from the city necropolis. The chapters of the second part
deal with the preliminary findings from an intra-urban intensive
survey. Between 2017 and 2019, a significant portion of the city
area has been investigated, and the results of the survey offer new
insights in the spatial and chronological of the city. The chapters
consider methodological questions, but also discuss artefact
groups. In general, the results presented in this volume add to the
knowledge of urbanism in Roman and Late antique North Syria.
