Dedicated to Professor Antonio Sagona on the occasion of his 60th
birthday, this Festschrift commemorates his many contributions to the
archaeology of the ancient Near East. Featuring 64 chapters, Context
and Connection is focused largely but not exclusively on work
conducted in eastern Anatolia and the southern Caucasus, those regions
to which Professor Sagona has devoted his career. With contributions
from his colleagues, students and mentors - and much collaboration
between them - the volume is divided into six sections: Reflections,
Cultural connections, Landscape studies, Artefacts and architecture,
Scientific partnerships and Retrospectives and overviews. Containing
reports on recent archaeological studies, as well as expositions of
long-researched materials and sites, the chapters are intended to be of
use to the specialist scholar and student alike. Comprehensively
illustrated, and with abstracts in both Turkish and Georgian, this book
addresses established and emerging questions facing Near Eastern
archaeologists today.
