This book presents the final report on Medieval period excavations at Kinet H¶y¼k in Hatay province, southern Turkey. The region was contested between the Crusader Principality of Antioch, the Knights Templar, the Kingdom of Armenian Cilicia, and the Mamluk Sultanate. Sources from this period mention Medieval Kinet (Arabic al-Tina, Latin Canamella) as a port exporting timber from the nearby Amanos Mountains. Four habitation levels spanned the mid-12th to early 14th centuries: three of them ending in conflagration and destruction. Its location on the Mediterranean and the main road between Anatolia and Northern Syria led to the recovery of ceramics, coins, and other objects from around the eastern Mediterranean, inland Syria, and beyond. The combination of its stratigraphic excavation and careful analyses of a wide range of materials and objects affords rare insights into economy, settlement, warfare, and many other aspects of life in this region at the time of the Crusades.
