Construction processes and economic dynamics in Miletus (1st to 3rd Century AD). An economic and archaeometric study of the stone resources of the Meander regionThe construction industry is considered today a determinant indicator of economic development. Though studies have shown that intensive construction activity during Antiquity leads to a dynamic flow of building material, manpower and technology, the comprehension of the economics of construction processes remains a research desideratum. Both the intensive construction activity at Miletus during the Roman Imperial time as well as the stone resources, so abundantly available in the Meander region are relevant factors in sizing and analysing economic dynamics. Additionally this dynamics occur in a key region of Asia Minor, where the framework for economic activities is marked by the geomorphological changes of the Meander Delta. By treating stone resources as economic goods, quantifying them according to economic and geological criteria and using them for empiric calculations of the economic effort, the project aims to study the economic implications of city-based construction processes on the local and regional economy. Furthermore the project aims to investigate the procurement strategies in construction and to determine the organisation of construction sites and the activity of craftsmanship on a local and regional level.The project addresses topics of actual scientific debate. This concerns particularly the incomplete record of the economics of ancient construction processes, primarily in terms of the methodological approaches, and secondly with regard to the potential of the ornamental decoration as a source for understanding the construction operations. In addition comes that the provenance analysis of the marbles from the Meander region is actually object of arguments; an infrastructure of archaeometrical data connected with archaeological objects still pends.New scientific results will be achieved through an interdisciplinary approach that combines the methods of the classical and economic archaeology on one hand, with archaeometry as well as with the GIS-supported analysis, on the other. Central for the project is a set of archaeometric analyses for marble provenance and the implementation of Marble.Arch as a digital archive for archaeometric reference data of the main ancient marble quarries. The fieldwork at Miletus is carried out under the excavation-license area of the DAI, whereas the quarry-survey is planed as cooperation with the Geologic Department of the University of Izmir. The marble provenance analysis gains from the close collaboration with renowned experts from Italy, Austria and the German Mining Museum (Bochum). The results are to be disseminated by preliminary reports and a monograph. Presentation and long-term preservation of the digital data occur in the database systems: Marble.Arch and iDAI.field.

Miletus的建筑过程和经济动态（公元1到3世纪）。蜿蜒地区的石头资源的经济和考古研究今天被认为是经济发展的决定因素指标。尽管研究表明，古代期间的密集建筑活动导致建筑材料，人力和技术的动态流动，但对建筑过程经济学的理解仍然是一项研究。罗马帝国时代和石材资源的密集建设活动都在蜿蜒地区大量可用，这是对经济动态的规模和分析的相关因素。此外，这种动态发生在小亚细亚的关键区域，在该地区，经济活动框架的标志是蜿蜒三角洲的地貌变化。通过将石头资源视为经济产品，根据经济和地质标准对其进行量化，并将其用于经济努力的经验计算，该项目旨在研究基于城市的建筑过程对地方和地区经济的经济影响。此外，该项目旨在调查建筑中的采购策略，并确定建筑工地的组织以及在地方和地区一级的工艺的活动。该项目涉及实际科学辩论的主题。这尤其涉及古代建筑过程经济学的不完整记录，主要是基于方法论方法，其次是关于观赏装饰作为理解建筑运营的来源的潜力。此外，从蜿蜒区域对大理石的出处分析实际上是参数的对象。与考古对象相关的考古数据基础设施仍在伪造。新科学结果将通过一种跨学科的方法来实现，该方法将经典和经济考古学的方法与考古学以及与GIS的分析结合在一起，在gis仪分析中，在其他。该项目的中心是一组大理石出处的考古分析，以及大理石的实施。 Miletus的实地调查是在DAI的开挖许可区域进行的，而采石场则计划与Izmir大学地质系合作。大理石出处分析与意大利，奥地利和德国矿业博物馆（Bochum）的著名专家的密切合作获得。结果将由初步报告和专着传播。数字数据的演示和长期保存发生在数据库系统中：Marble.ark和Idai.field。
