Abstract

Öz

Bugün Aydın İli, Çine İlçesi’nin yaklaşık olarak 7 km batısında yer alan antik yerleşim, Marsyas (Çine) Çayı’nın batısına konumlanmıştır ve iç Karia’nın en önemli kentlerinden biridir. Kentin kuruluş efsanesinde, Karia dilinde “Ala”nın ‘at’, “Banda”nın ‘zafer’ anlamına geldiği belirtilir. En erken yerleşime ilişkin Hitit metinlerinde adı Waliwanda olarak geçen Alabanda’daki ilk kazı çalışmaları, 1904 -1905 yıllarında Halil Edhem Bey tarafından gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ardından Aydın Müzesi adına Emin YENER ve Doç. Dr. Suat ATEŞLİER tarafından sürdürülmüştür. 2015 yılından itibaren de Doç. Dr. Ali Yalçın TAVUKÇU başkanlığındaki bir ekip Alabanda’nın tarihine ışık tutmaya devam etmektedir. Antik kentte bu güne kadar sur duvarları, tiyatro, tapınaklar, agora, bouleuterion, hamamlar, stadion, nymphaeum, su kemeri, kiliseler, anıt mezarlar ve nekropol alanlarında çok sayıda lahit mezar tespit edilmiştir.
