Galabovo in Southeast Europe and Beyond: Cultural Interactions during the 3rd—2nd Millennium BC. Proceedings of the International Conference, 24—27 October 2018 in the Town of Galabovo, Southeast Bulgaria
Category: Bronze Age; Proceedings
The archeological site "Asara" or "Galabovo", as it is knownin the literature, is a prehistoric settlement mound — one of thelargest in the Upper Thrace. Whether there were later settlements and whether there was a fortress on the top of the tell in the Middle Ages, we may suggest relying on indirect archaeological evidence. Only the old name Asara (meaning "fortress") and separate archeological materials without a certain contextindicate habitation during the Roman era and the Middle Ages. Modern construction activities have destroyed the upper part ofthe cultural layer and any reconstruction of the original silhouette will be in the realm of conjecture. Until the middle of the last century, the settlement mound was over 10 m high and dominated the surrounding terrain in the valley of the rivers Sokolitsa and Sazliyka, but nowadays the mound does not exceed 7 m. Today, the archeological site is well hidden among piles of coal, industrial buildings and chimneys. The Bronze Age layer, however, is fairly well preserved. Thus, the conference reports, published here, were dedicated to the its research. The data obtained from therescue excavations are rich, and our ambition is to place them in the background of what we know about Southeastern Europe and the northern part of the Eastern Mediterranean. We are grateful to all authors that contributed to the success of the international conference and submitted their reports, that we are now able to present you in this volume.
We shall not introduce the subject matter and the scientific value of the papers published in this volume, as we strongly believe that they speak for themselves. We consider all contributions a step forward in the investigation of the Bronze Age not only in Galabovo and Upper Thrace, but also in theneighbouring territories.
