Summary

Archaeologists working in Anatolia have been underrepresented in the debates on the so-called Anatolianising of Philia material culture that marks the beginning of the Bronze Age in Cyprus. The great archaeological legacies of James Mellaart and Machteld Mellink include a kind of diplomacy in a country that continues to be exotic to the methodological mainstream of the Mediterranean Bronze Age. This chapter addresses the aspects of Anatolian societies including, Ceramic pottery technology and related concerns with food and drink consumption: production, exchange and consumption of metal; and reconstructions of secondary products industries and economies. Each of these thematic sections is divided into three parts: Philia significance; Early Bronze Age (EB) I-II; and transition to EB III. These themes are also among the most consequential for understanding the Anatolian scene during the EBA. Intensifying production and exchange of metal was both a cause and effect of increasing.
