Abstract

This paper examines the patterns of Etruscan urbanism by the innovative use of newly available rural data, employing rank size, and indices of centralization. The detailed case study looks at the development of urbanism of pre-Roman Etruria where both robust and delicate urbanism were present alongside one another. To achieve this end, the paper will draw on the complementary features of two recent articles—Redhouse and Stoddart (2011) and Palmisano et al. (2018)—to provide a synthesis that both examines the large places and the supporting rural settlement. The territorial boundaries of the major urban places were predicted by the XTENT model in the first article. The cumulative numbers of rural settlement (and other proxies of population) over time were examined in the second article. This paper will look at the regional variation in landscape organization within the predicted territorial boundaries of the major robust centres and the more delicate transitory centres, as well as the buffer zones in between. At least three phases of boundary development can be examined, equivalent broadly to the Iron Age, Orientalizing/Archaic and Post Archaic periods, seeking to match these with the correspondingly dated rural settlement. The results will be critically examined in terms of broader knowledge of the economic and political development from current fieldwork in Etruria. The ethnographic analysis of Kopytoff (1989) will also be applied to assess the application of the internal African frontier to the central Italian context. In this way, the quantitative will be matched with the qualitative to provide a deeper understanding of urban development in an under-assessed example within the Mediterranean world.
伊特鲁里亚城市主义的模式
本文通过创新地使用新获得的农村数据,采用排名大小和集中化指数来研究伊特鲁里亚城市主义的模式。详细的案例研究着眼于前罗马时期伊特鲁里亚城市主义的发展,那里既有强大的城市主义,也有精致的城市主义。为了实现这一目标,本文将借鉴最近两篇文章——redhouse和Stoddart(2011)以及Palmisano等人(2018)——的互补特征,提供一种综合分析,既考察了大城市,也考察了支持性的农村定居点。在第一篇文章中,利用XTENT模型预测了主要城市场所的地域边界。第二篇文章考察了农村定居点(和其他人口指标)随时间的累积数量。本文将着眼于在主要的强大中心和更脆弱的临时中心以及两者之间的缓冲区的预测领土边界内景观组织的区域变化。至少可以考察三个阶段的边界发展,大致相当于铁器时代、东方化/古代化和后古代化时期,并寻求将这些阶段与相应年代的农村定居点相匹配。结果将严格审查在更广泛的知识方面的经济和政治发展,从目前的实地工作在伊特鲁里亚。Kopytoff(1989)的民族志分析也将用于评估非洲内部边界对意大利中部环境的应用。这样,数量将与质量相匹配,以便在地中海世界内一个评估不足的例子中更深入地了解城市发展。
