This chapter focuses first on the emergence of the Neolithic economic system in the Near East around the 10th-9th millennium BC, outlining the stages of its diffusion towards the Mediterranean and the cultural shifts provoked by that diffusion. The second part of the chapter examines the perceptible impact of social differentiation throughout the Neolithic period.

Scholars have established a classical chronology for the study of Greek history from the 14th down to the end of the 6th century BC. It distinguishes three movements, the Mycenaean period, a set of centuries to which diverse names are given, and the Archaic period.

Mobile lifestyle is frequently used to explain lacunae in archaeological evidence, such as the absence of permanent and long-term occupations in the archaeological record of 1st millennium BC Thrace. In this paper, I investigate the feasibility of Iron Age nomadic pastoralism, defined as an economic activity in which the whole community moves along with the herds.

This chapter discusses various aspects of Minoan bull games: The nature of the sport, the gender and status of the participants, the role of the palace in the organisation and execution of the games and the deity to which the games were dedicated. The first part presents the iconographical evidence; the second investigates the sport in its cultic and comparative context with a glance at the civilisations neighbouring Crete in Anatolia and Syria.

Ambracia was founded as a colony of Corinth in the late 7th century BC at the same location where the modern city of Arta extends today. On the same site existed an indigenous settlement of the 9th century BC and a subsequent trading post, which was installed by the Corinthians. The choice of the location was dictated by the important strategic and trading advantages it had to offer.
