Türkiye’de Sözde Miken Göçüne Teorik Yaklaşım

Bu çalışmada, antik kaynaklar ve bazı araştırmacılar tarafından daha evvelce teklif edilen, Anadolu’ya gerçekleştiği iddia edilen Miken göç akınlarının, arkeolojik veriler ele alındığında aslında var olmadığı; model olarak, Pers egemenliği altındaki Lykia’lıların arkeolojik kültürel materyalleri incelenip sonuçlar karşılaştırıldığında: her iki farklı dönem ve farklı kültür etkileşimi olmasına rağmen etkileyen ve etkilenen kültürlerin benzer politik, sosyolojik ve ekonomik davranışlar ve özellikler gösterdiği, ve bu kültürel etkilenimin bir Akülturasyon süreci ve derecesi ile bağlantılı olduğu anlaşılmıştır.

Theoretical Approach for The So-Called Mycenaean Migration in Turkey

On the basis of archaeological data, it is suggested in this study that Mycenaean migration fl ows to Anatolia, of the kind proposed in ancient sources and by some researchers, did not actually occur. As an example, when the material culture of the Lycians under the Persian rule was examined and the results were analysed, it could be seen that although the two civilisations are of diff erent periods and had diff erent interactions, the infl uencing and the infl uenced cultures exhibit similar political, sociological and economic behaviors and characteristics. Therefore, it is proposed that this cultural infl uence is correlated to a process and degree of acculturation.
