Abstract

Cıngırt Kayası is located in a region called “Pontos” in ancient times, which is currently within the borders of Yapraklı village, in the town of Fatsa, city of Ordu in the Eastern Black Sea Region. Sources from the Antiquity talk about Phrourion that were built to control and defend the Eastern Black Sea Region during the reign of Mithradates VI. Based on the excavations conducted predominantly on the summit of Cıngırt Kayası, it is suggested that Cıngırt Kayası was part of a security chain that consisted of Phrourion to provide control and defense of the Pontic Region during the reign of Mithradates VI. The material that constitutes the subject of study was discovered from excavations carried out at the top of the settlement during the ongoing excavations between the years 2012-2014. They are presented with their catalogue and plate information, through the evaluation of their typology and chronology based on data from the excavations and comparisons with similar materials. There have been few excavations conducted in the Eastern Black Sea Region, and thus this study aims to share one of the first findings of the unguentariums obtained from Cıngırt Kayası excavations and to contribute to the studies related to the unguentariums through the Black Sea Basin.

Abstract

Cıngırt Kayası Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesi’nde Ordu/Fatsa İlçesi Yapraklı Köyü sınırları içinde bulunan konumuyla, Antik Çağda Pontos olarak adlandırılan bölgede yer almaktadır. Antik kaynaklarda VI. Mithradates Dönemi’nde Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesi’nin kontrolü ve savunma stratejisi kapsamında oluşturulan Phrourionların varlığından söz edilmektedir. Ağırlıklı olarak yerleşimin zirve kesiminde yürütülen kazı çalışmalarından elde edilen verilere dayanarak Cıngırt Kayası’nın VI. Mithradates Dönemi’nin Phrourion karakterli yerleşimlerinden birisi olabileceği önerilmektedir. Makalenin konusunu oluşturan materyal, 2012-2014 yılları arasında devam eden kazılarda yerleşimin zirve kesiminde yürütülen çalışmalardan ele geçen unguentarium parçaları arasından seçilmiş profil veren örneklerdir. Çalışma kapsamına alınan örnekler, kazı verileri ve paralel materyal ışığında tipolojik ve kronolojik açıdan değerlendirilerek, katalog ve levha bilgileriyle sunulmaktadır. Doğu Karadeniz Bölgesi’nde az sayıda yürütülen kazı çalışmalarından birisi olan Cıngırt Kayası’ndan ele geçen söz konusu materyalin tanıtılması ve değerlendirilmesiyle; konuyla ilgili ilk bilimsel verilerin paylaşılması ve bölge arkeolojisine katkı sağlanması amaçlanmıştır.
