If
you want to know more about Phrygia in Iron Ages, and if this website don't
fulfil all your questions, these books will quench your thirst of knowledge.
They are accessible in any library of good level ; you will definitely find
them in the library of an University.
Phrygia
The Cambridge Ancient History is a series of books written by the specialists
of the different fields ; M. Mellink wrote the Phrygian part : "The
native Kingdoms of Anatolia", The Cambridge Ancient History III,
2, 1991, p. 619-675 [in English].
Like always
in Ancient History, it is wise to check the Realencyclopedie der Altertumswissenschaft.
The article of W. Ruge is still useful : "Phrygia", RE XX/1,
1941, col. 781-860 [in German].
Gordion
M. Voigt wrote a very convenient article on Gordion in the Oxford Encyclopedia
of Archaeology in the Near East, vol.2, Oxford University Press, Oxford,
1997, col. 426-431. It summarises the recent results and presents an overall
view of the site.
This general
view lacks in the final reports of the Gordion team but they nonetheless
remain central for Phrygian studies.
