Preliminary Report on the 2022 Fieldwork at Phoenix

The ancient site of Phoenix in the southwest of the Bozburun peninsula (Marmaris) and the adjacent areas were the subject of a second multidisciplinary archaeological campaign in the summer of 2022. After an initial survey campaign in 2021, which focused on the Phoenix settlement and its hinterland, a first excavation campaign was carried out at the Apollo sanctuary / Kızlan church in 2022. In parallel with the excavations, another team conducted a field survey in the southern hinterland of Phoenix. The main focus was on identifying and mapping various archaeological sites, especially agricultural workshops and farmsteads and their associated spaces.
