Abstract:
The collapse of the Soviet Union and the creation of new independentstates has generated great interest among scholars and politiciansin the history and contemporary situation in the region. CentralAsia is not an exception to this case. Viewed in this light, Central Asia: The Rediscovery of History is a welcome contribution towardintroducing the western scholarly community to the politics of CentralAsia.The book is composed of a number of articles published by Turkiclanguage specialists from 1904 to 1990, and of official documents fromCentral Asia and Azerbaijan. The integration processes of the Turkicpeoples, which began during the Soviet period, are now in full force. In1990, the heads of the Central Asian republics signed a treaty for economicand cultural cooperation. The treaty was also signed by Tajikistan,the only representative of the Indo-European family in CentralAsia. The integration envisioned a united economic space betweenKazakhstan, Uzbekistan, and Kyrgystan. In the 1992 and 1994 summitsheld in Ankara and Istanbul, Turkey and five newly independent Turkicstates confirmed their desire to cooperate in the economic and politicalarenas. Therefore, attention to Central Asian problems and the publicationof several scholarly works from this region are symbolic, to someextent, of the attention being paid to the significance of a commonTurkic tradition and the possibilities of a meaningful integration in the“Great Turan.”The book begins with Ayaz Malikov’s “The Question of the Turk:The Way out of the Crisis.” This chapter actually sets the tone for thewhole book by making a case for the need to attract the attention ofscholarly and political circles from around the world to the problems ofthe Turkic nations and their suffering under Soviet rule. His statementthat “our peoples do not have their own history” seems to be true, forall of the nations (not only the Turkic ones) in the former Soviet Unionhad to study mainly the history of the Russian state at the expense ofdeveloping their own historical consciousness. No doubt the author isright in his claims about Soviet violations of the rights of Turkic communitiesin Russia, especially the right to study in their own languagesat schools and universities and even the right to listen to programsbroadcast by western radio stations in their native languages. Arguingthat the political history of the Turkic nations extends backwards formore than two thousand years (p. 4), Malikov calls for the right ofTurkic peoples to seek unification without fear of being charged withadvocating “Pan-Turkism” (p. 6). The author appeals for the formationof a terminological commission that will be entrusted with seeking theunification of the Turkic language.All of the other chapters-Muhammad Ali’s “Let Us Learn about OurHeritage: Get to Know Yourself,” Zeki Togan’s “The Origins of theKazakhs and Ozbeks,” and Kahar Barat’s “Discovery of History: TheBurial Site of Kashgarli Mahmud”-are attempts to prove the Turkic originsof Central Asia since antiquity. Ali’s attempt to connect the term“Turan” with the ethnic term “Turkic” by referring to the Shah-ndma ofAbul Qasem Firdousi is quite novel, if not eccentric, as is his attributionof the Iranian language’s dominance in Central Asia as being the result ...

AbstractAlexander von Humboldt’s method is comparative in nature – on a global scale. In his Vues des Cordillères et monumens des peuples indigènes de l’Amérique (1810–1813), Humboldt compares the indigenous civilisations of the Americas with those of European antiquity. In Asie centrale (1843), he perceives Russia and Siberia against the backdrop of his experience in the ʻNew Worldʼ. As a natural scientist, he correlates global data, for example in his plant geography and mountain studies, as a vulcanologist or climatologist. After the Berne edition of his Complete Writings (2019), we can discuss Humboldt’s comparativist practices on a new material basis.

Abstract:
This article considers the study of wood and dung fuel use in antiquity across Southwest Asia by anthracologists and archaeobotanists. In recent years, the socially conditioned nature of fuel use has been highlighted and many scholars are stressing the central importance of fuel to pre-modern societies as on par with subsistence and tool use. By elevating and unifying the study of ancient fuel through anthracological, archaeobotanical, geochemical, and micromorphological studies, detailed insights into cultural practices, decision making, and resource use in the past can be gained. We provide a brief review of studies examining ancient fuel use and reflect on the integration of wood and seed data where seed assemblages are indicative of dung fuel use.

Abstract:
Abstract The worlds of Central Asia and the Indian Ocean have been seen as discrete, seemingly unconnected except by way of the vertical silk roads descending through feeder routes into port cities situated along the Indian Ocean and its many seas, gulfs, and bays. Before Central Asia lost historical centrality and was regarded increasingly as a blank space on the map, it was a dynamic region. The Indian Ocean world with its spice, cotton, and silk routes was more known, having entered European geographical knowledge— and fantasy—from antiquity. The two worlds—terrestrial and oceanic—have been seen as diametrically opposed, with historiography privileging the latter. This essay links the two worlds by evoking people, places, and mobility through the legend of Prester John, a mysterious Christian monarch and putative ally against Muslims.

Abstract:
Après une phase d'apogée au cours de l’âge du Bronze moyen (environ 2100-1800/1750 av. N. E. ), la civilisation de l'Oxus connaît à partir de 1750 av. N. E. Une phase de transformations profondes menant àsa disparition et à l'émergence d'un nouvel ensemble culturel aux alentours de 1500 av. N. E. Cette période de l'âge du Bronze final encore peu documentée en Asie centrale méridionale apparaît bien méconnue et, de ce fait, dépréciée. Elle représente pourtant une phase majeure dans l'histoire de l'Asie centrale où se posent certaines questions complexes comme celle du "déclin" des sociétés ou encore celle des interactions entre divers groupes ethnoculturels. Ce travail, établi à partir de sources anciennes et inédites dans une démarche pluridisciplinaire, permet de préciser la spécificité de cette période en mettant particulièrement en avant son caractère multiculturel. L'étude de la périodisation constitue un autre aspect majeur. Abordé jusqu'à présent comme un seul bloc chronologique, l'âge du Bronze final peut être réparti en deux grandes phases temporellement et géographiquement inégales. Enfin, outre la question des causes des mutations entre la période d'apogée et la période finale de la civilisation de l'Oxus, leur analyse permet d'entrevoir non un déclin général mais l'émergence d'un nouveau type de société dont les continuités sont visibles à la période suivante de l'âge du Fer ancien. Malgré certains phénomènes de résilience, l'impact des transformations constatées ne permettra toutefois pas le maintien des structures politiques et culturelles de la civilisation de l'Oxus.

Abstract:
Les représentations humaines en terre cuite, crue ou en pierre forment l'un des aspects fondamentaux de la culture matérielle en Asie centrale méridionale et en partie orientale du plateau Iranien. De nouvelles fouilles, menées sur les sites du piémont du Kopet-Dagh et de la Margiane, ont apporté un riche corpus de figurines en terre cuite, en terre crue et de statuettes composites en pierre, datant du Chalcolithique à l'âge du Bronze. Parallèlement, les fouilles effectuées sur le site protohistorique de Shahr-i Sokhta ont abouti à la découverte d'une tradition iconographique semblable à celle de la Turkménie méridionale. L'absence de typologie exhaustive est le premier obstacle concernant leur classification et la compréhension de leur fonctionnement. C'est la raison pour laquelle, après avoir analysé le contexte géographique et chronologique dans lesquels elles se sont développées, nous avons cherché à établir une typologie, suivie d'une comparaison du matériel avec les régions avoisinantes. Dans un deuxième temps, nous avons tenté de mettre en évidence des aspects conceptuels ou vraisemblablement cultuels de ces représentations anthropomorphes (probablement liées aux aspects divins), qui tiennent une place importante dans les croyances des populations centrasiatiques et est iraniennes au Chalcolithique et à l'âge du Bronze. Néanmoins, le débat au sujet de leur identification et aspects fonctionnels reste encore ouvert.

Abstract:
L'Asie centrale joua un rôle important dans les réseaux des échanges d'idées, de connaissances et de biens entre l'Orient et l'Occident. Les recherches archéologiques récentes montrent que la formation de ces réseaux remonte à l'âge du Bronze, et que la région du Xinjiang est au centre de ces problématiques. Le début des interactions directes est dû à la diffusion de la culture de Qiemu'erqieke de la région de l'Altaï, qui établit les premiers contacts avec les cultures du Corridor du Hexi dans Xinjiang oriental. L'expansion progressive de la culture d'Andronovo de l'Asie centrale occidentale maintint ces relations et acheva la formation de nouveaux itinéraires de contacts entre l'Asie centrale et le Corridor du Hexi. Ces derniers traversent la région du Xinjiang. Ce nouveau réseau de la communication est connu plus tard, pendant les périodes historiques, sous le nom de la «Route de la soie»
Beginning in the third century BC, the biggest trade network in world history developed within only a few centuries. The Xinjiang region plays an important role of crossroad for transportation and exchanges of peoples, goods, and ideas between China and the rest of Eurasia. Archaeological records show that these cultural phenomena from East and West bear witness to repeated material and technological exchanges, as well as interethnic marriages. Meanwhile, the Eurasian Steppe Cultures developed metallurgy, horse­breeding and wheeled transportation, earlier than the human groups of the Chinese Central Plain. Through these early contacts, some advanced technologies were also absorbed by the Central Plain Cultures, becoming, a few centuries later, important features for the development of Chinese culture. The Early East-West exchanges and communications between human groups belonging to different cultures laid the foundations for the subsequent "Silk Roads"

Abstract:
Les « cultures à céramique modelée peinte » se sont développées dans la seconde moitié du IIe millénaire av. J ;-C. (âge du Fer ancien) sur un vaste territoire couvrant les actuelles républiques d'Ouzbékistan, du Turkménistan, du Tadjikistan, du Kirghizstan, ainsi que le nord de l' Afghanistan et le nord-est de l'Iran. Connues depuis presque un siècle, grâce aux nombreuses recherches menées par les archéologues soviétiques, l'apparition de ces cultures est considérée comme une « régression» matérielle, culturelle et socio-économique qui contribuerait à la disparition de la brillante civilisation de la fin de l'âge du Bronze. Mais si leurs productions matérielles ont été bien étudiées, leur structuration et leur place au sein de la protohistoire centrasiatique n'étaient connues que superficiellement, et notre étude vise donc à renouveler la perception que nous en avons. Grâce à l' analyse d'un abondant complexe céramique inédit issu de fouilles françaises et italiennes récentes (Koktepe, Dzharkutan, Dzham-53 en Ouzbékistan ; Ulug-depe au Turkmenistan) et soviétiques plus anciennes et grâce aussi à un nouvel examen de l'ensemble des données publiées ou inédites disponibles, nous avons pu affiner et caracteriser la production matérielle de ces cultures et en déterminer la base socio-économique, proposant ainsi de nouvelles définitions de leurs faciès culturels. Nous discutons également les modalités et les circonstances de la transition de l'âge du Bronze final à l'age du Fer ancien, puis celles du passage vers l'âge du Fer moyen-récent, tout en les replaçant dans un contexte chronologique et géographique large, dans une optique méthodologique et thématique qui s'inscrit pleinement dans les perspectives de recherche qui prévalent actuellement en Asie centrale et au Proche-Orient.

Abstract:
À partir de collections de monnaies de l'Asie centrale et de l'Inde du Nord-Ouest portant l'image royale, il nous a semblé que celles-ci pouvaient être analysées non seulement sur le plan historique mais qu'elles pouvaient en outre être révélatrices du pouvoir qui les émet et les diffuse. La période qui s'étend du IVème avant au Vème siècle après J. -C. Représente un champ d'investigations intéressant parce que ces pays sont traversés par des invasions successives venant de l'ouest comme de l'est. La présente étude considère les monnayages d'un point de vue iconographique : elle s'attache d'abord à retracer la ligne évolutive de l'image royale, les mécanismes qui ont conduit à son apparition, les jeux des rencontres, des imitations et des influences. En Inde ou en Asie centrale, l'image royale monétaire fait son apparition sous l'impulsion étrangère d'abord achéménide puis grecque, avant d'être adoptée par les populations nomades et beaucoup plus tardivement par les souverains indiens. Cette étude tente de décoder le message royal diffusé par l'intermédiaire de ces pièces. La division thématique des types royaux permet de dégager les principaux axes du message politique visant à légitimer le pouvoir en soulignant l'aptitude du roi à être un guerrier victorieux, un garant de la prospérité et un vicaire des dieux
Our study of a large number of collections of coins stemming from Central Asia and North-Western India and bearing the image of a king convinced us that these coins should not only be analyzed from a historical point of view, but also be considered as pieces of evidence revealing the aims and aspirations of the issuing authority. The period from the 4th century B. C. To the 5th century A. C. Forms an utmost interesting field of investigation, because it is marked by a succession of invasions from very different origins. The present study takes into consideration coinage in an iconographical point of view. In the first place it considers the evolution of the royal image, the mechanisms leading to its depiction, the systems of meetings, imitations and influences. In India or in Central Asia, this appears on coins together with Achemenids and above all Greek invaders, before it was adopted by the nomad chiefs and finally the kings of certain part of India. In the second part, this study tries to decode the royal message diffused by those coins. The thematic division of the types allows to distinguish three principal axes from the propaganda legitimating a king's sway or emphasize his ability to be a victorious warrior, a warden of wealth and a proxy of the gods

Cette thèse porte les sépultures à kourgane des Saces et des Wusun dans le bassin de I'Ili comme les objets de recherche et vise à détecter l'évolution de la culture des Saces et des Wusun, à démontrer leurs particularités spécifiques d'économie et de société et à relever le mécanisme d'interaction entre l'évolution des socio-cultures et le changement de climat et d'environnement. Dans l'introduction, on explique le sujet de recherche et présente l'histoire de la fouille et de la recherche sur notre sujet. On précise les objectifs, les méthodologies et les difficultés de ce travail. Dans les deux chapitres suivants, plus de 70 cimetières font l' objet de notre recherche. Pour chaque cimetière, on examine la structure du kourgane, le rituel funéraire et les mobiliers funéraires, puis détermine sa localisation dans la structure chronologique. Dans le chapitre III, on explore la chronologie générale et l'évolution de la culture des Saces et des Wusun. On la divise en quatre phases et neuf variantes et certains cimetières indépendants. Dans le chapitre IV, on brosse un tableau rapide sur l'économie et la société des Saces et des Wusun. Enfin, on détecte l'évolution de la culture des Saces et des Wusun au même rythme que le changement d'environnement et de climat.

Abstract:
L'ouvrage est divisé en trois parties: ce choix a été principalement motivé par l'exigence de fournir un cadre et un contexte historique aux évidences archéologiques et à l'entière problématique historique de la Sogdiane, notre domaine d'étude et d'activité. Le rôle géographique de cette région, située dans la vallée du fleuve Zeravs̆ān, a rendu inévitable de se reporter à l'autre région centre-asiatique de la Bactriane, tout aussi importante que celle-ci, géographiquement et historiquement proche de la Sogdiane. En raison d'une cohérence chronologique et historique des évènements, on a également dû évoquer d'autres zones géographiques et culturelles, forcément liées au coeur de l'Asie Centrale, c'est à dire le Plateau Iranien, la Chine, l'Inde et les terres originaires des grecs conduits par Alexandre le Grand. En outre, même si de façon peu approfondie, une section a été consacrée à un phénomène d'importance cruciale dans le domaine des études sur l'Asie Centrale et les steppes, à savoir le nomadisme pastorale, aussi bien pour ses aspects économiques et productives que pour son caractère de contact et déstabilisation par rapport aux société sédentaires, mais également pour son développement interne et progressif vers une organisation socio-politique et une confédération de type tribale. Pour des raisons pratiques, nous définirons la période historique du IIe siècle jusqu'au Ier siècle av. J. -C. "première phase nomadique", tandis que nous définirons "seconde phase nomadique" celle du IVe au Ve siècle ap. J. -C. , liée aux populations des Chionites, des Kidarites et des Hephtalites. La première partie présente les résultats des investigations archéologiques dans le site de Kotjepa (27 km sud-ouest de Samarcande) achevées par la Mission Archéologique Italo-Ouzbèk et de l'étude de la poterie entre les années 2008-2012. La deuxième aborde les évènements historiques et politiques de la fin du règne grec de Bactriane jusqu'à la création de la confédération nomadique des Hephtalites. La troisième partie, plus proprement archéologique, est un catalogue des principaux sites archéologiques et des cimetières nomadiques avec lesquels ils sont comparés les résultats de la fouille de Kojtepa: bien si la plus part des comparaisons n'a pas toujours fournir des réponses "positives", il a toutefois été décidé de présenter lui pour compléter le cadre historique tracée dans la première partie
The present work is divided into three distinct parts: this choice was motivated primarily by the necessity to provide a historical background to contextualize the archaelogical evidence that the whole issue concerning the historical Sogdiana, an area of our business on the fied. The geographical role of the region, centered in the fertile valley of the river Zeravšān, made it inevitable to refer to another, very important region of Central Asian, the region of Bactria, geographically contiguous and historically linked to Sogdiana. For similar reasons, in the name of chronological and historical coherence of events, reference was made to other geographical - cultural reality, inevitably connected to the heart of Central Asia, namely the iranian plateau, China, India and to the far land of Greeks of Alexander the Macedonian. Although not in the form too in-depth, one section is also dedicated to a phenomenon of crucial importance in studies on Central Asia and the steppe regions, the pastoral nomadism, both fot its economic and productive character and as point of contact and destabilization in relation to sedentary societies, and also for its internal development and the progressive evolution towards socio-political organizations of tribal confederation. For practical purposes, the historical period that goes from the 2nd century BC to the 1st century AD, was defined as "first nomadic phase", as well as the 4th and 5th centuries was defined as "second nomadic phase", in reference to the people of Chionites, Kidarites and Hephtalites. The first part of the work, presents the results of the field-work of the Uzbek-Italian Archaelogical Mission on the site of Kojtepa (Samarkand area) and the study of ceramic materials in order better interpret the role of the settlement, its history and its relations with other sites in the same region. The second part deals with the historical and political events from the end of the Greek kingdom of Bactria until the creation of the nomadic confederation of Hephtalites, and the third, more strictly archaelogical, describes the main archaeological sites related to each of the "historical steps" discussed above

Over 5,000 entriesThe first comprehensive, multi-disciplinary reference work covering every aspect of history, culture, religion, and life in Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Near East (including the Persian Empire and Central Asia) between c. AD 250 to 750, the era now generally known as Late Antiquity. This period saw the re-establishment of the Roman Empire, its conversion to Christianity and its replacement in the West by Germanic kingdoms, the continuing Roman Empire in the Eastern Mediterranean, the Persian Sassanian Empire, and the rise of Islam.Consisting of more than 1.5 million words, drawing on the latest scholarship, and written by more than 400 contributors, it bridges a significant period of history between those covered by the acclaimed Oxford Classical Dictionary and The Oxford Dictionary of the Middle Ages, and aims to establish itself as the essential reference companion to this period.

Abstract:
The Sasanian Empire (third-seventh centuries) was one of the largest empires of antiquity, stretching from Mesopotamia to modern Pakistan and from Central Asia to the Arabian Peninsula. This mega-empire withstood powerful opponents in the steppe and expanded further in Late Antiquity, whilst the Roman world shrunk in size. Recent research has revealed the reasons for this success, notably population growth in some territories, economic prosperity and urban development, made possible through investment in agriculture and military infrastructure on a scale unparalleled in the late antique world. This volume explores the empire’s relations with its neighbours and key phenomena which contributed to its wealth and power, from the empire’s armed forces to agriculture, trade and treatment of minorities. The latest discoveries, notably major urban foundations, fortifications and irrigations systems, feature prominently.

Abstract:
The creation of the Library of Alexandria is widely regarded as one of the great achievements in the history of humankind—a giant endeavour to amass all known literature and scholarly texts in one central location, so as to preserve it and make it available for the public. In turn, this event has been viewed as a historical turning point that separates the ancient world from classical antiquity. Standard works on the library continue to present the idea behind the institution as novel and, at least implicitly, as a product of Greek thought. Yet, although the scale of the collection in Alexandria seems to have been unprecedented, the notion of creating central repositories of knowledge, while perhaps new to Greek tradition, was age-old in the Near East where the building was erected. Here the existence of libraries can be traced back another two millennia, from the twenty-seventh century BCE to the third century CE, and so the creation of the Library in Alexandria was not as much the beginning of an intellectual adventure as the impressive culmination of a very long tradition. This volume presents the first comprehensive study of these ancient libraries across the ‘cradle of civilization’ and traces their institutional and scholarly roots back to the early cities and states and the advent of writing itself. Leading specialists in the intellectual history of each individual period and region covered in the volume present and discuss the enormous textual and archaeological material available on the early collections, offering a uniquely readable account intended for a broad audience on the libraries in Egypt and Western Asia as centres of knowledge prior to the famous Library of Alexandria.

Abstract:
The Sasanian Empire (third-seventh centuries) was one of the largest empires of antiquity, stretching from Mesopotamia to modern Pakistan and from Central Asia to the Arabian Peninsula. This mega-empire withstood powerful opponents in the steppe and expanded further in Late Antiquity, whilst the Roman world shrunk in size. Recent research has revealed the reasons for this success, notably population growth in some territories, economic prosperity and urban development, made possible through investment in agriculture and military infrastructure on a scale unparalleled in the late antique world. This volume explores the empire’s relations with its neighbours and key phenomena which contributed to its wealth and power, from the empire’s armed forces to agriculture, trade and treatment of minorities. The latest discoveries, notably major urban foundations, fortifications and irrigations systems, feature prominently. An empire whose military might and urban culture rivalled Rome and foreshadowed the caliphate will be of interest to scholars of the Roman and Islamic world.

Abstract:
The second decisive moment of the war came in 624, when Heraclius sent off a diplomatic mission to the khagan of the Turks in central Asia and himself led a small, hardened expeditionary force deep into Transcaucasia and beyond. Speed of movement and surprise played key parts in the series of victories he won over pursuing armies in 625, after disrupting Khusro’s mobilization and sacking the fire temple of Adur Gushnasp at modern Takht-I Sulaiman in 624. The Romans benefited in several ways from this first counteroffensive: (1) the troops gained in confidence with each success; (2) serious damage was done to Persian resources by widespread raiding; (3) volunteers were raised from the Christian peoples of Transcaucasia; and (4) the Turks agreed to come into the war on the Roman side. After learning this from Turkish emissaries in Albania late in 625, Heraclius set off on the long march home.

Abstract:
The argument known in Antiquity as the Problem of the Criterion was introduced to Western thought by Pyrrho of Elis, who learned it in Central Asia and India from Early Buddhism. The problem revolutionized ancient European thought, such that from Pyrrho's time onward ancient Graeco-Roman philosophy was focused on the epistemological question, “Can we really know anything?” With the ascendancy of Christianity and its Aristotelian and Neoplatonic apologetics, the problem was sidelined and practically forgotten during the Middle Ages. When Pyrrhonism was reintroduced to Western Europe in the late Renaissance, the problem once again revolutionized Western thought and shifted the central focus of philosophy to epistemology. Scottish philosopher David Hume (1711–1776) is responsible for what may be called the problem's modern incarnation, known today as the “Problem of Induction.” This chapter analyzes the issues fundamental to understanding not only Hume but also Pyrrho, and in turn the Buddha.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter starts as the Roman Empire fragmented, encompasses the emergence of Christianity and Islam, and explores the donkey’s place in the history of the Middle Ages, as well as what Fernand Braudel termed ‘the triumph of the mule’ in the ensuing early modern period from the fifteenth to the nineteenth centuries. Being closer in time to the present, historical documents are generally richer and more plentiful than for earlier periods, but archaeological excavations and surveys—especially of post-medieval sites and landscapes—are still undeveloped in many regions. Inevitably, therefore, what I present draws as much on textual sources as it does on them. I look first at the symbolic value of donkeys and mules in Christianity and Islam. Next, I consider their disappearance from some parts of Europe in the aftermath of Rome’s collapse and their re-expansion and persistence elsewhere. One aspect of this concerns their continuing contribution to agricultural production, another their consumption as food, a very un-Roman practice. A second theme showing continuities from previous centuries is their significance in facilitating trade and communication over both short and long distances. Tackling this requires inserting donkeys and mules into debates about how far pack animals replaced wheeled forms of transport as Late Antiquity gave way to the Middle Ages. Wide-ranging in time and space, this discussion also provides opportunities for exploring their role in human history in areas beyond those on which I have concentrated thus far. West Africa is one, the Silk Road networks linking China to Central Asia a second, and China’s southward connections into Southeast Asia a third. According to the New Testament Jesus entered Jerusalem on Palm Sunday seated on a donkey (Plate 20). The seventh-century apocryphal Gospel of Pseudo-Matthew also envisages donkeys carrying His mother to Bethlehem, being present at the Nativity, and conveying the Holy Family into temporary exile in Egypt. Donkeys thus framed both ends of Jesus’ life and, given their importance in moving people and goods in first-century Palestine, must have been a familiar sight. But the implications of their place in Christianity’s narrative were originally quite different from those that are generally understood today.
