Book Synopsis Reconstructing the Settled Landscape of the Cyclades by : Konstantinos Z. Roussos
Download or read book Reconstructing the Settled Landscape of the Cyclades written by Konstantinos Z. Roussos and published by Leiden University Press. This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The aim of this book is to offer a fresh approach to the history and archaeology of the Cyclades in Late Antiquity and the Byzantine Early Middle Ages in light of current archaeological investigations. It is an attempt to interpret human-environmental interaction in order to read the relationship between islands, settlements, landscapes, and seascapes in the context of the diverse and highly interactive Mediterranean world. It offers an interdisciplinary approach, which combines archaeological evidence, literary sources, and observations of the sites and microlandscapes as a whole, using the advantages offered by the application of new technologies in archaeological research (Geographic Information Systems). The islands of Paros and Naxos are used as case-studies. The author traces how these neighboring insular communities reacted under the same general circumstances pertaining in the Aegean and to what extent the landscape played a role in this process.
Book Synopsis The Aegean from Bronze Age to Iron Age by : Oliver Dickinson
Download or read book The Aegean from Bronze Age to Iron Age written by Oliver Dickinson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-09-27 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following Oliver Dickinson’s successful The Aegean Bronze Age, this textbook is a synthesis of the period between the collapse of the Bronze Age civilization in the thirteenth and twelfth centuries BC, and the rise of the Greek civilization in the eighth century BC. With chapter bibliographies, distribution maps and illustrations, Dickinson’s detailed examination of material and archaeological evidence argues that many characteristics of Ancient Greece developed in the Dark Ages. He also includes up-to-date coverage of the 'Homeric question'. This highly informative text focuses on: the reasons for the Bronze Age collapse which brought about the Dark Ages the processes that enabled Greece to emerge from the Dark Ages the degree of continuity from the Dark Ages to later times. Dickinson has provided an invaluable survey of this period that will not only be useful to specialists and undergraduates in the field, but that will also prove highly popular with the interested general reader.
Book Synopsis The Central Palace Sanctuary at Knossos by : Marina Panagiotaki
Download or read book The Central Palace Sanctuary at Knossos written by Marina Panagiotaki and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 23rd March, 1900, Sir Arthur Evans started to excavate the Palace at Knossos. Among the first parts to be investigated was the west wing of the Palace, the central part of which forms the Central Palace Sanctuary. This monument is of outstanding importance for our understanding of Minoan civilization. Although remarkable for his time, Evans's reports were not as complete as are required today. This work assembles all the evidence available and presents a close analysis of the history and interpretation of the Central Palace sanctuary. It discusses the architectural history of the area and reassesses its function through a study of its architecture and finds.

Book Synopsis Geometric Greece by : J.N. Coldstream
Download or read book Geometric Greece written by J.N. Coldstream and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-11 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geometric Greece has long been the standard work on this absorbing period, which saw the evolution of the Greek city-states, the composition of the Homeric poems, the rise of the great Panhellenic sanctuaries and the first exodus of Greek colonists to southern Italy and Sicily. Professor Coldstream has now fully updated his comprehensive survey with a substantial new chapter on the abundant discoveries and developments made since the book's first publication. The text is presented in three main sections: the passing of the dark ages, c. 900-770 BC; the Greek renaissance, c. 770-700 BC, covered region by region, and the final part on life in eighth century Greece. Its geographical coverage in the Mediterranean ranges from Syria to Sicily, and the detailed archaeological evidence is amplified by reference to literary sources. Highly illustrated, including images of several finds never previously published, this is the essential handbook for anyone studying early Greek antiquity.
