Overview
The Phoenix Archaeological Project (PAP) is an interdisciplinary and multinational co-operative survey project conducting in ancient Phoenix. The project is started in 2021 with the official permission of the Ministry of Culture of Turkey, and it is directing by Dr. Asil Yaman of Penn Museum. The center of the ancient Phoenix is located 4 km South of Taşlıca village in the southwestern part of the Bozburun Peninsula, Marmaris (Turkey). Hisartepe consists of the fortified acropolis of the city, and the core of the settlement measures approximately 2.5 hectares. The top of the acropolis rises 250 meters above the Sindili plain and the lower town of the Phoenix. Phoenix Archaeological Project (PAP) is started in 2021 with Turkey’s Ministry of Culture’s official permission. The field surveys in Phoenix and its environs are planned to continue until 2026 between August and October every year. PAP will practice the traditional methods of systematic, intensive field survey and historical research, and it will integrate it with other disciplines as geophysics, ecology, anthropology, sociology, and history. All data sets from the sub-projects will combine in a web-based digital interface. The data entry will continue during the off-season period by our archivists.
