Vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Entwicklungen seit dem 11. September 2001 und den daraus resultierenden militärischen Konflikten in Afghanistan, Irak und anderen Teilen der Welt hat Herodot, der Vater der Geschichtsschreibung, als Historiograph der ‚Perserkriege’ eine ungeahnte Aktualität gewonnen. Seine Zuverlässigkeit als Historiker ist jedoch schon seit der Antike umstritten und wird vor allem seit dem letzten Drittel des 20. Jahrhundert kontrovers diskutiert.Auf einer Tagung an der Philipps-Universität Marburg 2011 wurde die Bedeutung von Detlev Fehlings bis heute impulsgebender Monographie „Die Quellenangaben bei Herodot“ (1971) für die gegenwärtige und zukünftige Forschung diskutiert. Während Fehling in Herodot zuforderst den Literaten sieht, der bei der Gestaltung seiner Historien große literarische Freiheiten in Anspruch nahm, verstehen andere Positionen Herodot gleichsam als den um historische Wahrheit ringenden Historiker-Kollegen von heute, der von ‚orientalischen’ Gewährsleuten in die Irre geleitet worden sei, oder nehmen einen sehr fruchtbaren vermittelnden Standpunkt ein, in dem die literarische und zeithistorische Kontextualisierung Herodots die Leitlinie der Forschung bildet. Diese drei Grundpositionen beeinflussen die Forschungen der Alten Geschichte, Klassischen Philologie und ihrer altertumskundlichen Nachbardisziplinen bis heute nachhaltig. In den Beiträgen des zugehörigen Sammelbands analysieren führende Vertreterinnen und Vertreter der Herodot-Forschung unterschiedlicher Disziplinen Fehlings Forschungsbeitrag und bieten damit nicht nur eine Synthese der aktuellen Diskussion um Herodots Quellen, sondern auch einen wichtigen Ausgangspunkt für die weitere Beschäftigung mit dem Vater der Geschichtsschreibung.

This volume and the series 'Muziris', of which it is the beginning, have their origins in the observation that the cultural, social and economic history of the Ancient World is receiving increasing attention in contemporary research, but there are still research gaps to be identified. These gaps result from two deficiencies: On the one hand, the inclusion of the rich documentary and archaeological source material is still inadequate. On the other hand, an attempt is rarely made to look beyond epochs, disciplines or supposed geographical and cultural 'boundaries'. This is where the focus in this volume on economic activity between the Mediterranean, the Indian Ocean, the Ancient Orient and the Far East in antiquity begins. At the workshop 'Trade and Seafaring in the Red Sea, Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean in Antiquity' held in May 2021, this large region and the sea and land trade routes connecting it were examined in the period from the third millennium BC. until the third century AD. from the perspective of different ancient studies disciplines. In addition to the literary sources, the focus was particularly on historical papyrology and epigraphy, but a lot of space was also given to numismatic and archaeological material. In all contributions and discussions, an attempt was made to also take into account the culture-specific value and rule systems that are evident in the sources in the context of economic activities in this area. In addition, a longue durée perspective was developed in order to be able to recognize and discuss structural development processes as well as continuities of cultural, infrastructural or economic connections.

War and war-related issues have attracted an increasing attention within current historical and archaeological research, not least in response to recent global political events. Another reason for this growing interest is probably a general trend towards Modern Military History that has drawn academic attention to war-related issues through all cultures and epochs, going beyond Clausewitz's argument of war as a continuation of politics by other means. The present vol-ume is committed to this broad approach by examining and comparing phenomena related to ancient warfare from the perspective of Ancient Near Eastern Studies and Classical Studies. Due to unforeseeable circumstances, which prevented the organizers from editing their own proceedings, some papers of the 8th Symposium of the Melammu Project, held at Kiel on the subject "Iranian Worlds", have been added to this volume in their own section
