Abstract

The early history and sources of information for four-wheeled vehicles in the ancient Near East and Transcaucasia have been widely discussed by Salonen, Childe, Piggott, and Littauer and Crouwel.1 Özgen who has published a group of terracotta vehicles found in the Suruç region, presented new evidences from southeastern Anatolia of the late third millennium. 2 His study was followed by Littauer and Crouwel’s article about a related model found in Syria.3 On the other hand, Özgüç enlightened us about the first actual spoked vehicle and the representational counterparts in the Assyrian Colony Period.4 Recently a monumental study edited by Raulwing with Littauer and Crouwel in 2002 collected selected writings about the elements of ancient transportation.

Özet

1999 yılında, güvenlik kuvvetleri tarafından müsadere edilen boğa koşulu üç tunç araba modeli ve bir çift boğa heykelciği Şanlıurfa Müzesi’nde korumaya alındı. Elde edilen bilgilere göre, bu modellerin Suruç ilçesinin hemen kuzeybatısındaki Abamor köyü civarında bir mezarlıktan çıkarıldığı anlaşıldı. Her biri farklı biçimde yapılmış bu araba modelleri, Önasya’da çeşitli yerlerde bulunduğu iddia edilen araba modellerine ilişkin, hem form hem de teknik bakımdan yeni özellikler kazandırmaktadır. Abamor 1 nolu modeli, örneğini imdiye kadar sadece pişmiş toprak araba modellerinden tanıdığımız ve Önasya’da bulunmuş üstü kapalı tek bronz araba modelidir. 2 ve 3 nolu modeller de, diğer araba modellerinde görülmeyen bazı yeni teknik özellikler göstermektedir.
