Özet

The Anatolian Peninsula, also known as Asia Minor, is situated at the eastern terminus of the Mediterranean Basin. Geologically, and to a certain extent culturally, Anatolia is considered to be part of the Near East, yet it sits at the junction of several climate and phytogeographic zones, leading to significantly higher rates of biodiversity than in neighboring regions. These wide variations in climate, flora, and fauna are also responsible for differences in archaeological societies’ social, economic, technological, and political organizations.
