L’istmo della penisola anatolica (2017)

unapi

The Ptolemaic map of Asia Minor shows the Hellenistic legacy but only in part. In fact, there is no trace of the famous Anatolian isthmus. From Herodotus to Dionysius ‘Periegetes’, this isthmus, despite the varying estimates of its extension from north to south, is a constant in the image of Asia Minor. With the dissolution of the isthmus, the upper course of the Euphrates emerges as the new limit of the ‘peninsula’ with respect to the continent.
