The Hinterland of the Arbīl City: A Survey of Tell Baxçan, Iraqi Kurdistan

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Tell Baxçan used to be a part of the Arbīl´s closest hinterland in many prehistorical and historical periods and has yet to be investigated. It is situated at the WSW periphery of the Arbīl, in the built-up area on the left bank of Šiwazor river The surface survey conducted in October 2009 recovered a collection of artefacts which has enabled six or seven phases of settlement to be identified dating from the Middle Palaeolithic to the Middle Islamic Periods. While the Middle Palaeolithic lithics were transferred to the site from elsewhere, the subsequent period represented – the Early Tigridian 3 (Ninive 5) – was the most conspicuous settlement phase, largely exposed on the current tell surface. The Early to Middle Bronze Age, Middle to Neo-Assyrian periods and Middle Islamic period are also well represented in the collection. The Hellenistic/Seleucid period and Early Islamic period left only sparse traces in the record, in case of the latter important numismatic clues have been recovered. The geophysical survey conducted on the site showed numerous indications of relatively large relicts of compact (bonded) brickwork or similar structure in a depth range between 3 m and 8 m, but no interlinked, linear structures. Comparison of the Tell Baxcan settlement history with other tells in the Arbīl catchment allows us to draw several tentative conclusions about the settlement dynamics of the city itself, particularly its nucleation which took place after the Late-Chalcolithic-2 period, and the long continuity of the local settlement pattern from the Bronze Age to the Neo-Assyrian era.
