    A text of Shalmaneser I from Üçtepe and the location of Šinamu
    (Anatolian Studies, 2022) Genç, Bülent; Macginnis, John
    This article presents a newly discovered cuneiform text from the site of üçtepe in Diyarbaklr province in southeastern Turkey. The text bears a previously unknown inscription of the Assyrian king Shalmaneser I. While incomplete, it never-theless gives the most extensive lists of the conquests of Shalmaneser I yet known, including a number of previously unattested toponyms. This is in itself an important contribution to the historical documentation of the Middle Assyrian period. Furthermore, the fact that the text was written to record Shalmaneser's rebuilding of the city wall of Sinamu allows us to propose that üçtepe is to be identified with the site of ancient Šinamu, known to have been an important centre from the late third millennium BC and subsequently a regional capital in the provincial system of the Middle Assyrian empire. This is a significant advance on our previous understanding of the historical geography of the region. These issues are discussed in the context of the Middle Assyrian occupation of the Upper Tigris and the results of the archaeological exploration of recent decades.

    The Tuspa Mound Columned Hall
    (Archaeopress, 2023) Genç, Bülent; Konyar, Erkan
    Tuspa, the capital city of the Urartian kingdom, today identified with the Van Fortress, rises on a conglomerate rock and extends approximately 1,250 meters long in the east-west direction, 70-80 meters wide in the north-south and rises approximately 100 meters high on the eastern shores of Lake Van. The Tuspa Mound, which has been continuously settled since the Bronze Age, was the lower settlement of the city during the Urartian period and extends along the north of the citadel. The excavations carried out between 2010-2019 at the Tuspa Citadel and Mound revealed important chronological and stratigraphic data. The Tuspa Mound excavations in particular unearthed structure layers, as well as the architectural and material culture, related to the Urartian period. The identification of building levels belonging to the Middle and Modern Ages, Post-Urartian/Late Iron Age, Urartian, Early Iron, and Bronze Ages has provided important contributions to understanding the settlement history of the Lake Van Basin. In this article, the structure and archaeological data of the columned hall belonging to the Early Urartian Building Level, which was unearthed as a result of 10 years of excavation at Tuspa Mound are evaluated and the results are interpreted.

    Çemka Höyük’te Açığa Çıkarılan Çanak-çömleksiz Neolitik Dönem A Evresi Radyan Planlı Yapıları
    (2020) Kodaş, Ergül; Genç, Bülent; Çiftçi, Yunus
    Son yıllarda, Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi’nde baraj kurtarma kazılarıyla paralel olarak artan arkeolojik kazı çalışmalarında bölgenin uzak geçmişine dair önemli bilgiler elde edilmiştir. Bilhassa Ilısu Barajı ve HES Projesi kapsamında yapılan arkeolojik kazılar sonrası bölgenin Neo-litik Çağ kültürleri üzerine önemli veriler ortaya çıkarılmıştır. Bu bağlamda Ilısu Barajı ve HES Projesi kapsamında 2019 yılında Çemka Höyük’te yürütülen arkeolojik kazılar Yukarı Dicle Vadisi Çanak-Çömleksiz Neolitik dönem A evresi ve Geç Epi-Paleolitik dönem hakkında önemli bilgiler vermektedir. Yerleşim yerinde çok sayıda yuvarlak planlı yapı, yontmataş ve sürtme taş alet ve mezar açığa çıkarılmıştır. Çemka Höyük yerleşim yerinin bir diğer özelliği ise Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi’nde örneği olmayan ve daha çok Suriye’de bulunan yerleşim yerleri ile özdeşleştirilen Rad-yan Planlı (içten köşeli bölmeli yuvarlak planlı1) yapıların bulunmasıdır. Hem Çanak-Çömleksiz Neolitik Dönem’de bölgenin kültürel yapısı hem de çevre bölgelerle olan ilişkisi hakkında önemli bilgiler vermektedir.

    First Steps in the Archaeology of Assyria: Botta's Letters and the Excavation House at Khorsabad
    (Cambridge University Press, 2019) Genç, B.
    Paolo Emilio Botta, who was sent to Mosul as the French Consul in 1842, explored at Kuyunjik and Nebi Yunus and then began investigating ancient stone foundations at Nebi Yunus. Muhammed/Mehmed Pasha and local religious leaders, who were worried that the tomb of prophet Yunus (Jonah) and a local mosque would be destroyed by the excavations, opposed these investigations and the work stopped as a result. After Nebi Yunus, Botta started to work at Kuyunjik in December 1842. While his workers were busy at Kuyunjik, someone from the village of Khorsabad talked about stones with inscriptions and reliefs on them on top of a hill. After three months of exhaustive work at Kuyunjik, on March 20th, 1843 Botta sent a group of workers to Khorsabad for excavation. However, problems arose about Botta's work in Mosul. The Pasha of the province in particular created obstructions. We have done research in the Ottoman Archives of the Prime Ministry of Turkey on Botta's excavation permits and documents, the obstructions created by the Pasha of Mosul, the details of the story of Botta's experiences at Khorsabad and the relevant correspondence. In these archives we have found documents about the problems Botta experienced at Khorsabad, the conditions for excavation permits and the construction of an excavation house, the plan of the excavation house mentioned by Botta, which was drafted like a fortress next to the village houses and sent to Istanbul, as well as petitions of the villagers opposing Botta's work and his excavation house. Here, we attempt to re-read Botta's excavation seasons, permits and the problems he encountered through the documents in the Ottoman Archives in order to understand how this period is to be understood. Through these documents and correspondence, we were able to study the problems that arose between the Ottoman State and France as a result of Botta's excavations at Khorsabad. © The British Institute for the Study of Iraq 2019.

    Memory of destroyed Khorsabad, Victor Place, and the story of a shipwreck
    (Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, 2021) Genç, Bülent
    Victor Place was appointed as a consul to Mosul in 1851, where having arrived in 1852 he started excavations at Khorsabad. Financial problems forced him to stop this activity towards the end of 1853. As the Interior Ministry appointed him to another post in 1854, he wanted to transport the Khorsabad finds before he left Mosul. However, the roads were extremely unsafe because of the Muntafiq Arab tribes' revolt. The local authorities repeatedly warned Place about this problem, stressing that he should wait until after the revolt was over before leaving. But despite these warnings, Place transported the Khorsabad finds from Mosul to Baghdad by keleks (rafts). The plan was then to transport them to Basra from Baghdad. Place set off on the river with a fleet made up of four keleks and a ship. Smuggled goods loaded on the ship made it heavier and attracted the attention of looters. On 21 May 1855, the fleet was attacked by bandits in the region of Kurna, located between Baghdad and Basra. The ship and two keleks sank at the spot, while the remaining two keleks arrived at Basra with some of the rescued goods. Various attempts to retrieve the sunken finds then followed. This article accordingly considers new data on the Kurna accident, drawing on Ottoman archival sources, particularly reports written at the time that discussed the possible causes of the accident and the negligent actions linked to it. As the destroyed memory of Khorsabad makes clear, archaeology cannot be rushed.
