Elke Kaiser u. Wolfram Schier, Time and Materiality: Periodization and Regional Chronologies at the Transition from Bronze to Iron Age in Eurasia (1200-600BCE)

这本藏书收录了2018年3月19日至21日在柏林自由大学举行的第一次国际会议的与会者的几篇文章，主题为《时间和物质：欧亚大陆从青铜时代到铁器时代(公元前1200-600年)的分期和区域年代学》。在这三天的时间里，在涵盖欧亚大陆(10°W-70°E)不同区域的18场会议中，讨论了以下方面：·各自区域分期和时间系统学的基本概念和原则；·讨论了不同的学术传统，以此为背景理解单个大区域的现有分类；·相对和区域年表的有效性及其在国家边界上的适用性。与会者的热烈讨论和极其积极的评价鼓励我们以印刷形式出版来稿。约有15位同事接受了我们的邀请，发表了他们的手稿，从而总共有13篇关于青铜时代晚期向铁器时代早期过渡的主要地区的年代学研究文章。这些文章首次汇编成一册，提供了对这一过渡范围的跨区域概览，并洞察了各大区域按时间顺序划分所依据的理论和物质基础。因此，对于一个重要的文化历史时期，如从青铜时代向铁器时代的过渡，在许多地区传统上被认为是凯斯拉时期，对某些区域内的文化历史进程进行更具体的考虑和更好的评估成为可能。从欧亚大陆的角度来看，从西方的伊比利亚半岛到东部的西伯利亚南部，从希腊到斯堪的纳维亚半岛，包括这两个横断面之间的无数大片空间，成功地比较形成了这本卷的特殊性质。为了确保科学质量，每一篇稿件都经过了外部专家的同行评审，并由作者根据专家意见进行修改。由于该出版物面向国际读者，所有手稿都是英文的，并对语言进行了校对。目前，80%的文章已经通过了评审和校对。这篇文章是由CH。PARE(第03章)显示了所有文章将出现在书中的实际布局。

The collection volume contains several contributions by the participants of the first international conference on the topic 'Time and Materiality: Periodization and Regional Chronologies at the Transition from Bronze to Iron Age in Eurasia (1200-600 BCE)' at Freie Universität Berlin from March 19-21, 2018. During these three days, in 18 sessions covering different regions within Eurasia (10° W - 70° E) the following aspects were discussed: • Concepts and principles underlying the respective regional periodization and temporal systematics;• Different academic traditions were discussed, against the background of which the existing classifications in the individual large region are to be understood; • The validity of relative and regional chronologies and their applicability across national borders.The lively discussions and the extremely positive assessment of the conference participants encouraged us to publish the contributions in a printed form. About 15 colleagues have accepted our invitation to publish their manuscripts, so that a total of 13 articles on chronological studies of major regions on the transition from the Late Bronze Age to the Early Iron Age are available. Being brought together in a collection volume for the first time, these articles provide a supra-regional overview of this transition horizon as well as an insight into the theoretical and material foundations on which the chronological subdivisions in the individual large regions are based. Thus, for an important cultural-historical period such as the transition from the Bronze Age to the Iron Age, traditionally considered a caesura in many areas, more specific consideration and better assessment of the cultural-historical processes within certain regions become possible. A successful comparison within the Eurasian perspective, from the Iberian Peninsula in the West to Southern Siberia in the East, from Greece to Scandinavia including the numerous large spaces lying between these two transects, forms the special character of this volume.In order to ensure the scientific quality, each contribution was peer reviewed by an external expert and revised by the authors in accordance with the expert opinions. Since the publication aims at an international readership, all manuscripts are in English, proofread regarding the language. At present, 80% of the articles already passed review and proof-reading. The article by Ch. Pare (Chapter 03) shows the actual layout in which all articles will appear in the book.
