ABOUT:

This is a rare, limited edition, richly illustrated archeological book on city/region of Artashat (Armenia). The book is in Italian & it was published in 1998, in Italy.

Artashat (Armenian: Արտաշատ); Hellenized as Artaxata (Greek: Ἀρτάξατα), was a large commercial city and the capital of ancient Armenia during the reign of king Artaxias I; the founder of the Artaxiad Dynasty of the ancient Kingdom of Armenia. The name of the city is derived from Iranian languages and means the "joy of Arta". Founded by King Artaxias I in 176 BC, Artaxata served as the capital of the Kingdom of Armenia from 185 BC until 120 AD, and was known as the "Vostan Hayots" ("court/seal of the Armenians").

La centralità storica e culturale dell’Armenia tra Mediterraneo e Asia in età ellenistica e romana emerge chiara dai contributi al volume che evidenziano alcuni aspetti caratteristici della sua cultura e danno particolare rilievo ai risultati degli scavi di Artaxata, una delle principali capitali armene del periodo.

Presentazione editoriale
L'Armenia ha rappresentato in ogni epoca un nodo cruciale nel sistema di comunicazioni tra il Mediterraneo e l'Asia, tra il mondo delle steppe e gli stati dell’antico Oriente. Questa centralità viene esaltata nell’età ellenistica e romana, quando alla posizione geografica tra gli stati ellenistici e l'impero romano da un lato, e gli imperi partico e sasanide dall’altro viene a corrispondere un’ampia apertura,a stimoli di svariata provenienza sotto la cui azione, in particolare, si sviluppano un’arte e un’architettura ampiamente, permeate da forme e tecniche proprie al mondo occidentale. L'Armenia viene allora a far parte integrante della koinè ellenistica, sia sul piano economico e commerciale, sia su quello culturale, spesso essendo i contenuti della tradizione rivestiti delle immagini, attraen-ti e di universale comprensione, di quella cultura classica che Alessandro e i Seleucidi avevano diffuso in Asia.
I contributi raccolti in questo volume cercano di evidenziare alcuni aspetti caratteristici della cultura dell’Armenia in età ellenistico-romana, con particolare attenzione alle risposte che essa ha dato ai problemi determinati dalla fondamentale necessità di comunicare idee e concetti o di partecipare alle tendenze culturali del mondo contemporaneo adattandole alle proprie specifiche condizioni. Pertanto, il contenuto di questi contributi è focalizzato soprattutto sugli stretti legami con la cultura classica, dai quali risulta anche variamente sottolineata l'importanza che questa cultura ebbe nello stesso processo di salvaguardia delle tradizioni locali.
