Eugenia Equini Schneider (Hrsg.): Men, Goods and Ideas Travelling over the Sea. Cilicia at the Crossroad of Eastern Mediterranean Trade Network
In May 2018, under the title Archaeology and Economy in the Ancient World, the participants of the 19th International Congress of Classical Archaeology dealt in more than 900 individual contributions with a wide variety of questions concerning ancient economic history. Panel 5.16 offers an overview of the state of research on the region of Cilicia, with a focus on interdisciplinary studies on production exchange, trade and transport in the Mediterranean region. Due to its special geographical location at the crossroads of the most important sea and land trade routes, at a transition and connection point between Syria, Cyprus and Egypt, Cilicia played an important role in the context of cultural, social and economic exchange in the Mediterranean region.
