Friday’s AIA lecture was on Dr. Deborah Carlson’s excavation of a sunken ship in Kilzilburun. In the wreck, a column, in parts, was discovered which appears to be from the second or first century b.c. The column seems designed for a Doric style temple. Interestingly, this seems to facilitate to the trade and export of items from one location to another at the time. Though it did not get to its destination, the act of transportation suggests that the civilization were becoming closely intertwined, eventually spreading throughout all nearby civilization. These acts of trade might be behind the early forms of communication that attributed to similarities found within cultures. This seems likely since it was between these times that cultures started becoming much more complex eventually leading to the end of the archaic societies ways of life.
