Overview
This study examines the maritime networks of Patara during the fourth and third centuries BC, employing numismatic and amphora evidence as proxies indicative of the city’s significant role in ancient maritime routes. The two types of evidence offer perspectives on two different types of connectivity. The numismatic analysis focuses on the presence in Patara of low-value civic bronze coins minted by non-Lycian cities, thereby offering a window onto human mobility at the scale of the individual traveller, not necessarily the traders. In contrast, an examination of transport amphorae imported to Patara helps to reveal the extent of Patara’s commercial connections. These findings enhance our comprehension of Patara’s crucial role in ancient maritime networks, illuminating the interdependence of Mediterranean societies during this period. They demonstrate the complexity of these networks, suggesting that different kinds of networks operated simultaneously. This research contributes to the discourse on ancient maritime mobilities, considering the overlaps and interactions between different forms and scales of connectivity. Bu çalışmada, Patara’nın MÖ dördüncü ve üçüncü yüzyıllardaki deniz bağlantıları, kentin antik dönem denizcilik rota- larındaki önemli rolünün göstergesi olarak nümismatik ve amphora buluntuları ışığında incelenmektedir. Bu iki veri grubu, iki farklı bağlantı türüne ilişkin bakış açıları sunar. Nümismatik analiz, Patara’da ele geçen ve Likya dışındaki kentler tarafından darp edilmiş düşük değerdeki sivil bronz sikkeler üzerine odaklanmakta, böylece yalnızca tüccarların değil, bireysel gezginler ölçeğinde insan hareketliliğine bir pencere sunmaktadır. Buna karşılık, Patara’ya ithal edilen amphoraların incelenmesi, kentin ticari bağlantılarının kapsamı hakkında deliller sunar. Söz konusu veriler, Patara’nın antik deniz ağlarındaki önemli rolüne ilişkin kavrayışımızı geliştirmekte ve ilgili dönemde Akdeniz toplumlarının birbirl- erine olan karşılıklı bağlılığını da aydınlatmaktadır. Dahası, bu ağların karmaşıklığı ile farklı türden ağların aynı anda işlediğini de bizlere göstermektedir. Bu araştırma, farklı bağlantı türleri ve ölçekleri arasındaki kesişim ve etkileşimleri dikkate alarak antik dönem deniz hareketliliğine ilişkin çalışmalara katkı sunmayı amaçlamaktadır.
