这项研究是对以弗所市周围的古凯斯特河（Küçük Menderes）和爱琴海沿岸安纳托利亚阿特米西翁河漫滩和三角洲的古代地理进行沉积学和地貌分析。作者强调了考古年代测定和结构的相互关系，以及古代地理及其古环境的跨学科分析中的历史评论。在某些情况下，历史文献是具体且真实的。在其他情况下，史前传说可能为重建与考古和历史环境相关的古代环境提供重要线索。以弗所和密切相关的阿特米西翁（或以弗所戴安娜神庙）提供了一个机会，将过去三千年来地貌学的古环境/古地理解释综合起来，将地质学、自然地理学、考古学、历史和金石学等学科联系起来。全新世海平面上升和海侵为以弗所和阿耳忒弥斯海港提供了升高的海陆环境。在过去的三千年里，古代凯斯特河三角洲洪泛区的持续扩张改变了港口的环境。这项研究表明跨学科研究如何极大地增强我们对以弗所和阿耳忒弥斯古代地理的理解。 © 2007 Wiley 期刊公司。
This study is a sedimentologic and geomorphologic analysis of ancient geographies of the floodplains and delta of the Küçük Menderes (ancient Cayster River) around the city of Ephesus and the Artemision in Aegean coastal Anatolia. The authors emphasize the interrelationship of archaeological dating and structure, and historical comment in interdisciplinary analysis of ancient geographies and their paleoenvironments. In some cases, the historical literature is specific and factual. In other cases, legend from prehistory may provide important clues to the reconstruction of ancient environments as related to archaeological and historical settings. Ephesus and the closely related Artemision, or Temple of Diana of the Ephesians, offer a chance to link the disciplines of geology, physical geography, archaeology, history, and epigraphy in a composite of paleoenvironmental/paleogeographical interpretations of geomorphology over the past three millennia. Holocene sea‐level rise and marine transgression provide the raised paralic settings of the harbors of Ephesus and the Artemision. The settings of the harbors were altered by continuing progradation of the ancient Cayster River delta‐floodplain over the past three millennia. This research shows how interdisciplinary research greatly enhances our understanding of the ancient geographies of Ephesus and the Artemision. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
