Achaemenıd bowls from Seyitömer Höyük

Bu çalışmada Akhaemenid kaseler hakkında genel bir bilgi verilmekte ve daha sonra Seyitömer Höyük’ten ele geçen örneklerin değerlendirilmesi yapılmaktadır. Akhaemenid Kase olarak anılan kaseler Pers İmparatorluğu içerisinde kullanılan en popüler içki kaseleriydi. Genellikle altın, gümüş ve bronz gibi değerli metallerden yapılan bu kaselerin seramik imitasyonları da üretilmiştir. Seyitömer Höyük buluntuları arasında bugüne kadar toplam yirmi üç adet seramik Achaemenid kaseye ait parça tespit edilebilmiştir. Söz konusu bu buluntu grubu, bu çalışmada on yedi örnek ile temsil edilmektedir. Mevcut buluntular hamurlarına göre, kırmızı ve gri mallar olmak üzere, başlıca iki gruba ayrılmaktadır. Bunlar içerisinde Achaemenid kaselerin hem derin tipini hem de sığ tipini görebilmekteyiz. Mevcut örneklerin üçü Hellenistik Dönem tabakasından, diğerleri ise Achaemenid Dönem tabakasından ele geçmiştir. Bu kaselerin Seyitömer Höyük’te M.Ö. 5. yüzyıl başlarından itibaren, Hellenistik Dönem içlerine kadar kullanıldığı görülmektedir. Bu merkezden ele geçen Akhaemenid kaselerin üretim yeri hakkında bir çıkarım yapmak ise şimdilik mümkün değildir. Fakat çok fazla sayıda ele geçmemiş olmaları sebebi ile bunların başka bir (veya birkaç) merkezden ithal edilmiş olabileceği düşünülebilir.

Seyitömer Höyük’ten Akhaemenid kaseler

This paper presents a general review of Achaemenid bowls, followed by an analysis of diagnostic pottery from Seyitömer Höyük. The bowls named as Achaemenid Bowls were the most popular drinking bowls used in the Persian Empire. Beside the examples, which were generally made of valuable metals like gold, silver and bronze, there are also glass and ceramic imitations of these metal products. Up to the present time, twenty-three sherds have been typologically categorized as Achaemenid bowls. Seventeen of these fragments will be presented and discussed in this study. All these fragments have been grouped based on their fabric color as Red Ware and Gray Ware and belong to shallow and deep types. With the exception of three sherds, which come from the Hellenistic level, all examples have been found in the Achaemenid levels. The usage of these bowls started as early as the 5th century BC at Seyitömer Höyük and continued on into the Hellenistic period. For the time being it is impossible to identify the centre of production for these examples, but their small quantity suggests that they may have been imported from other centres.
