Adorant Fıgurınes From Arpalık Tepe

Journal Title: Mehmet Akif Ersoy Üniversitesi Uygulamalı Bilimler Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 3, Issue 2

Abstract

In 1997, a rescue excavation carried out by experts from the Antalya Museum at the Arpalık Tepe Hill, near the village of Yumaklar in the Serik District of Antalya Province yielded the remains of a sacred building destroyed by smugglers. The cave was built at the entrance of an underground cave, which was thought to be related to the cults of Apollo and the Mother Goddess. The work could not be completed due to security incidents in the area and the cave was closed by the Gendarmerie and the rescue excavation was terminated. In 2008, five copper alloy figurines were recovered from the smugglers who were captured with illegal artifacts, and the smugglers declared that they were found in Yumaklar Arpalık Tepe cave. In this study, five copper alloy figurines depicted with naked and highlighted sexual organs are discussed extensively with detailed descriptions and comparisons. The relation of the figurines examined in their adorant position with the presentation phenomenon has been revealed. The study will be complementary to the preliminary work on the quality of the cult field and the worship rituals.
