Abstract
The progress of archaeology in Anatolia during the last few years has enabled us to distinguish certain cultural areas of which the chief are (i) the western and south-western, and (ii) the central and eastern (fig. l). Troy belongs to the first group, though its position, its importance, and its foreign elements prevent us from considering it a type-site; Alişar and Bogazköy represent the second group. The differences between east and west, manifested in architecture, ceramics and the smaller utensils, though most conspicuous in the second millennium, exist to a certain extent in the third. Less characteristically Anatolian is the country south-east of the Taurus, whither alien influences from Syria and the east could penetrate easily; while the developments in the extreme north-east are still too obscure to make discussion profitable.
