The port of Sinop lies on the northern Pontic coast of Anatolia and, jutting out into the Black Sea, is surrounded by sea on three sides and the Pontic mountains to the south. Despite its relative isolation (by land), Sinop provides the best natural landing on this coastline and has therefore been occupied for more than 10,000 years. This book reports on the work of the Sinop Regional Archaeological Project which has carried out survey work around the hinterland of the port. This project, the preliminary results of which are discussed here, aims to look at the issues of `connectedness' in social and economic terms between Sinop, its hinterland and the Black Sea world from the precolonial Greeks to the present day. More a discussion than a survey report, this book focuses on the ways in which a port such as Sinop is tied in with other, larger systems and processes both by land and perhaps more importantly by sea.
