Sagalassus and Cremna 1986

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 December 2013

Extract

A second season of survey work at Sagalassus and Cremna in Pisidia was started on 2 July and continued until 12 August 1986. This was the most recent instalment of a project to carry out detailed archaeological and architectural studies of the surviving remains of the Graeco–Roman cities of this region. Between 1982 and 1984 we had worked at the Roman colony of Pisidian Antioch, and a final report is nearing completion. In 1985, we began at Cremna, another Roman colony, with the intention of complementing the excavation of the site carried out in the early 1970s by a team from Istanbul University led by Professor Jale İnan, and also spent a few days of preliminary reconnaissance at the metropolis of Roman Pisidia, Sagalassus (see AS. XXXVI, 1986, 8–10). All the field work has been funded by the British Academy, the British Institute of Archaeology at Ankara, the Roman Society, and the Craven Committee of Oxford University. In 1986 the team worked at Sagalassus until 24 July, thereafter we were at Cremna. The participants were Dr. Stephen Mitchell, Dr. Marc Waelkens, Dr. Gregory Horsley, Dr. Edwin Owens, Mr. Robin Fursdon (chief surveyor), Roger Bruton, Mark Critchley, Helen Thackray (student surveyors), Roger and Miranda McKearney.
