The continuation project Ports and Landing Places at the Balkan Coasts of the Byzantine Empire (4th-12th Cent.). Monuments and Technology, Economy and Communication is based on the work done during the first phase of the SPP-1630, a systematic collection of ports and landing places of the Byzantine Balkan coasts for the period of 300-1204 documented through historical and archaeological evidence. In addition to a database with more than 460 entries so far, a combination of historical-geographical methods with instruments of geo-analysis and network theory was developed, which allows reconstructions of maritime transport systems. On this basis, the second phase of the project will include the updating of data and the further development of analytical tools as well as an in-depth study of the development of medieval ports and transport systems in regional and comparative perspective. In particular, the following questions will be scrutinized: The importance of landing sites and port facilities in the respective urban topography and dynamics of coastal towns and their development in the context of the discussion of decay or continuity of late antique urbanism. The question of the respective scope, intensity and impact of over-regional maritime connections and their reach into the hinterland. The analysis of changes in local and regional settlement systems and route networks. An answer to these questions requires thorough local and regional studies to detect relevant factors and interdependencies. In addition to the in-depth analysis of harbour towns and settlement systems in three selected regions (northern Adriatic Sea, Peloponnese, Danube estuary), their wider connections within the Mediterranean will be surveyed. Different levels of analysis (local/regional/national) will be connected and recorded in their interaction. A second focus is on the comparative analysis with findings of similar projects both within and outside of the SPP. Also here, three spatial levels are integrated: within the Byzantine Mediterranean (M. Veikou, Univ. Cyprus). Through exchange and joint interpretation of data, a comprehensive typology of maritime settlements for the entire Middle Byzantine Empire will be created. A similar objective is pursued by Ch. Loveluck (Nottingham Univ.) in his project that includes the North Sea, the Atlantic coasts of France and the Iberian Peninsula. In cooperation with him, local and regional settlement systems in coastal and near-coastal areas across early medieval Europe will be compared. A global perspective of comparison is provided by the project of S.M. Sindbæk (Univ. Aarhus), which studies the emergence and development of early medieval trading centres in Northern Europe, in the Indian Ocean and in the Adriatic Sea. Results and research questions of the first phase of the project will thus be deepened and interpreted also beyond the Byzantine world in an context of pre-modern history of transport.

拜占庭帝国巴尔干沿岸的延续项目港口和登陆场（第4-12世纪）。纪念碑和技术，经济和交流是基于SPP-1630的第一阶段所做的工作，这是通过历史和考古证据记录的拜占庭巴尔干沿岸的港口和着陆点的系统收集。除了到目前为止有460个条目的数据库外，还开发了历史地理方法与地理分析工具和网络理论的组合，从而可以重建海上运输系统。在此基础上，该项目的第二阶段将包括数据的更新以及分析工具的进一步开发以及对中世纪港口和运输系统在区域和比较角度的开发的深入研究。特别是，将审查以下问题：在各自的城市地形和沿海城镇的动态中，着陆点和港口设施的重要性及其在讨论后期古董城市主义的衰败或连续性的背景下。过度区域海洋连接及其到达腹地的相对范围，强度和影响的问题。本地和区域解决系统和路线网络的变化分析。这些问题的答案需要彻底的本地和区域研究，以检测相关因素和相互依赖性。除了对三个选定地区（北部亚得里亚海，佩洛蓬尼斯，多瑙河河口）的港口城镇和设置系统进行深入分析之外，还将调查它们在地中海地区的广泛联系。不同级别的分析（本地/区域/国家）将在其相互作用中连接并记录。第二个重点是与SPP内外类似项目的发现进行比较分析。此外，在这里，整合了三个空间水平：在拜占庭地中海（M. Veikou，Univ。Cyprus）内。通过对数据的交换和共同解释，将创建整个中部拜占庭帝国的海事环境的综合类型。 CH也追求了类似的目标。 Loveluck（诺丁汉大学）在他的项目中，其中包括北海，法国和伊比利亚半岛的大西洋成本。将与他合作，将比较中世纪早期欧洲沿海和近型地区的地方和区域环境系统。 S.M.项目提供了比较的全球比较观点。 Sindbæk（Univ。Aarhus）研究了北欧早期中世纪贸易中心，印度洋和亚得里亚海的出现和发展。因此，在现代运输史的背景下，该项目第一阶段的结果和研究问题也将在拜占庭世界之外加深和解释。
