目前对铁器时代安纳托利亚中部弗里吉亚政体的了解主要是基于弗里吉亚首都戈尔迪翁地区的发掘和调查。为了扩大我们对弗里吉亚政体的了解，我们评估了弗里吉亚西部（Eskiehir）地区铁器时代社区的规模和性质。我们解决的挑战，解释陶瓷来自大规模的考古调查，利用中子活化分析（NAA）的陶瓷从12个网站收集的Eskiehir考古调查项目，以及从Höyük挖掘的组合在该地区。虽然在陶瓷技术和风格的均匀性表明该地区是更大的弗里吉亚社区的一部分，NAA的结果表明，（一）陶瓷生产是区域高度本地化的证据有限的标准化在铁器时代和（B）的基础上的社区互动的证据，有可能建立一个部分的发展时序。这些结果不仅对理解弗里吉亚核心的内部动态，而且对开发一种方法来比较古代政体使用相称单位的相互作用的社区的影响。本研究是更大的安纳托利亚铁器时代陶瓷项目（http：//www.une.edu.au/a-ia）的一部分。
Current understanding of the Iron Age polity of Phrygia in Central Anatolia is primarily based on excavations and survey in the region of the Phrygian capital of Gordion. In order to expand our knowledge of the Phrygian polity, we assess the scale and nature of Iron Age communities in the western (Eskişehir) region of Phrygia. We address the challenge of interpreting ceramics derived from large-scale archaeological survey by utilizing Neutron Activation Analysis (NAA) of ceramics from 12 sites across the region collected by the Eskişehir archaeological survey project as well as an excavated assemblage from Şar Höyük. While the uniformity in ceramic technology and styles suggest the region is part of the larger Phrygian community, NAA results reveal that (a) ceramic production was regionally highly localized with limited evidence of standardization during the Iron Age and (b) based on evidence of community interaction it is possible to establish a partial chronological sequence of development. These results have implications not only for understanding the internal dynamics within the Phrygian core but also for developing a methodology for comparing ancient polities using commensurate units of interacting communities. The present study is part of the larger Anatolian Iron Age Ceramics project (http://www.une.edu.au/a-ia).
