Edited by A. Baralis Edited by N. Mathieux Edited by T. Stoyanov Edited by M. Tonkova
French description: Le depart des forces perses du nord de l’Egee en 479 av. J.-C. engage un processus de recomposition politique qui consacre l’emprise d’Athenes sur les cites grecques du littoral egeen et accompagne l’expansion du Royaume de Macedoine. Parallelement emerge en Thrace un pouvoir royal, celui des Odryses, qui depasse pour la premiere fois le cadre de la tribu en imposant sa domination sur un large territoire couvrant, sous Sitalkes (ca. 430 av. J.-C.), toutes les terres presentes entre les rivages nord?egeens et le Danube. Des lors s’elabore au sein de ce nouvel etat une identite aristocratique originale qui joue un role unificateur aupres des elites locales. L’apparition d’insignes au sein du mobilier funeraire temoigne en effet des modes de representation d’une classe aristocratique dont les membres partagent un mode de vie luxueux reposant sur des gouts et des choix originaux qui transparaissent notamment dans l’art du banquet. Cette demande suscite en retour une circulation inedite des formes et des usages, desormais possible par la mobilite d’artisans grecs et thraces que favorise le decloisonnement de cet espace. Ce volume constitue la publication des actes du colloque organise a Paris, au musee du Louvre et a l’Institut de France les 12 et 13 juin 2015 dans le cadre de l’exposition L’epopee des rois Thraces. Reseaux d’echanges, etablissements de commerce et de production, activites et techniques artisanales, sont etudies tour a tour a l’aune des dernieres decouvertes archeologiques realisees en Bulgarie, en Turquie d’Europe et dans le nord de l’Egee. English summary: The withdrawal of Persian forces from the northern Aegean in 479 BC initiated a process of political reordering, which consecrated the supremacy of Athens over the Greek cities of the Aegean coast and enabled the expansion of the Macedonian kingdom. At the same time, a royal power emerged in Thrace, that of the Odrysians. It reached beyond the political framework of the tribe by imposing its domination over a large territory – under Sitalkes (ca. 430 BC) containing all the lands between the North Aegean shore and the Danube. Henceforth, an original aristocratic identity spread within this new kingdom, which played a unifying role for the local elites. The emergence of insignia in grave-goods bears witness to the social representation of an aristocratic class whose members shared a luxurious way of life based on original tastes and choices, reflected in particular in the practice of the symposium. This demand in turn gave rise to an unprecedented circulation of forms and uses, now possible through the gradual opening of this area to the mobility of Greek and Thracian craftsmen. This volume constitutes the proceedings of the conference organised in Paris, at the Louvre Museum and the Institut de France on 12th and 13th June 2015 in the framework of the exhibition The Epic of the Thracian Kings. Exchange networks, commercial and production settlements, craft activities and techniques are studied in the light of the latest archaeological discoveries carried out in Bulgaria, European Turkey and the northern Aegean.
