    Bearded Heracles deciptions from Ancient Tlos
    (Akdeniz Üniversitesi Akdeniz Uygarlıkları Araştırma Enstitüsü, 2018) Uygun, Çilem
    The two different material groups recovered from the excavations carried out in the ancient city of Tlos, with common iconographic narratives, consisting of busts of the bearded Heracles, are the subject of this study. The first of these works is a black glazed ceramic piece decorated in the appliqué technique that was recovered from the filling layer in front of the rock tomb number KM-2 in the city's acropolis in 2005. The second is a carved gem found in a tomb in the Karaveliler area, to the northeast of the city center. In this study both works are evaluated in terms of dating criteria of their own material group, e.g. technique of production, stylistic features and find context. A general evaluation of the bearded busts within the iconographies of Heracles, popularly employed in the visual narratives of the Greek and Roman periods is made, based around the Tlos examples. And, in addition, apart from the use of Heracles as a motive, its presence within the Lycian religious system and his relationship with local deities is examined in this same section concerning iconography.
