“…These were not recorded as archaeological objects, but their documentation greatly supported a contextual understanding of the landscape. Although their general course was already known (Schuchhardt, ; Bruns‐Özgan et al , ), the LiDAR data also proved helpful in documenting the exact course of the city walls in difficult and overgrown terrain.…”

In 2013, an airborne laser scan survey was conducted in the territory of the Ionian city of Kolophon near the western coast of modern Turkey as part of an archaeological survey project carried out by the Mimar Sinan University of Istanbul (Turkey) and the University of Vienna (Austria). Several light detection and ranging (LiDAR) studies have been carried out in the temperate climate zones of Europe, but only a few in Mediterranean landscapes. Our study is based on the first LiDAR survey carried out for an archaeological purpose in Turkey and one of the first in the Mediterranean that have been planned, measured and filtered especially for archaeological research questions. The interpretation of LiDAR data combined with ground‐observations proved extremely useful for the detection and documentation of archaeological remains below Mediterranean evergreen vegetation and dense maquis. This article deals with the methodological aspects of interpreting LiDAR data, using the Kolophon data as a case study. We offer a discussion of the strengths and limitations of LiDAR as an archaeological remote sensing method and suggest a best practice model for interpreting LiDAR data in a Mediterranean context. © 2017 The Authors.

“…Afterwards research was limited to mostly unpublished rescue excavations by the Museum of Izmir (Şahin, 2008). In 2010 a Turkish-Austrian survey resumed archaeological research at Kolophon (Bruns-Özgan et al, 2011;Gassner et al, 2017).…”

“…The Kolophon survey project conducted between 2011 and 2014 covered the urban core and its close environs ( Fig. 5.2 ), using pedestrian survey as well as remote sensing, particularly LiDAR imaging and geophysics (Bruns-Özgan, Gassner and Muss 2011; Muss et al 2014; Grammer et al 2017). The main outcome of this research is that the exact extent of the necropolises can now be determined.…”

This paper presents a review of recent archaeological work in Ionia and Caria, located in southwest Anatolia. In this paper we focus on archaeological research conducted in the past decade and we present a synthesis of recent discoveries and published research. Southwest Anatolia is a region where the earliest archaeological work dates back to the 19th century. However, there are research areas that have been long neglected, and archaeological work has been stifled until recent decades. As a result, the last decade of research has seen significant transformations in approaches and methodologies, with new research agendas to report. Owing to their presentation in historical accounts, Ionia has been perceived as more embedded within the world of Greek archaeology, whereas Caria, viewed from an Atheno-centric perspective, has been regarded as peripheral and provincial. Therefore, it is interesting to present a synthesis of archaeological research for both regions together. It is promising that archaeological practice in both regions has begun to embrace a longue dureé approach and has shifted research focus from major urban centres and monuments to new research foci by making use of interdisciplinary research, including rural landscapes, domestic space, cultural identities, and daily practices.
