Beatrice Fochetti, The Doric Order in Rough Cilicia: Local Identities or Cultural Interactions? In: Emanuela Borgia (ed.), South-Eastern Anatolia at a crossroads.

This contribution discusses architectural decoration in South–Eastern Anatolia as an expression of local identities and cultural interactions in Asia Minor. It focuses on the Doric buildings built in Rough Cilicia between the late Hellenistic period and the Imperial age (2nd century BC – 3rd century AD), examining cases of sacred and funerary architecture. This analysis of the Doric order demonstrates the existence of local tendencies and well–established workshops active in Rough Cilicia, as well as the interaction with neighbouring regions (especially with Lycia, Commagene and north Syria).
