Δεν υπάρχει αμφιβολία πως, σε ολόκληρη την ιστορία της ανθρωπότητας, η καταγωγή μεμονωμένων ατόμων ή κοινωνικών ομάδων αποτέλεσε σημαντικό κριτήριο για την αξιολόγηση και κατάταξή τους, στο πλαίσο άτυπων - ή και τυπικών - κοινωνικών ιεραρχιών.

Η συγκρότηση, η διαχείριση και ο έλεγχος της συλλογικής μνήμης αποτελούν επιλογές μιας κοινότητας με σημαντικό κοινωνικό, πολιτικό και ιδεολογικό περιεχόμενο. Σύμφωνα με τις θεμελιώδεις ιδέες του Halbwachs, η μνήμη είναι κοινωνικώς κατασκευσμένη και καθορισμένη και δε νοείται ατομική μνήμη εκτός κοινωνικού πλαισίου.

Η Ur κτίσθηκε στις όχθες του Ευφράτη ποταμού και αποτέλεσε μία πό τις σημαντικότερες και πλουσιότερες πόλεις-κράτη της Μεσοποταμίας κατά την 3η χιλιετία π.Χ. Ως τώρα έχει ανασκαφεί μικρό μόνον μέρος της, κυρίως το τμήμα με τα ιερά, το ανακτορικό κέντρο και το νεκροταφείο.

Ο σεβασμός και η φροντίδα προς τους νεκρούς τεκμηριώνεται με αρκετό υλικό σε σχέδον όλες τις προϊστορικές κοινωνίες του Αιγαίου, ενώ η ποικιλία των τελετουργικών πρακτικών, απλών και σύνθετων, στην ταφή είναι χαρακτηριστική για τα συναισθήματα και τον τρόπο διαχείρισής τους από τους επιγόνους.
The aim of this article is to introduce a new, inter-disciplinary and international, long-term research project, the Koutroulou Magoula Archaeology and Archaeological Ethnography Project, to outline its aims and report on some of its results.

The ancient slag heaps of Cyprus contain the story of the island as a regional source of copper throughout the millennia. Located near the ore deposits, many of these heaps were destroyed by modern mining activities and some are still under immediate threat. F

Various geophysical methods were used to explore the subsurface of the prehistoric site of Mitrou. Geophysical research was essential for selecting significant areas for excavation as well as for guiding archaeological fieldwork and complementing its results.
The appearance of wheelmade pottery in the Mediterranean during the last phase of the Early Bronze Age is usually interpreted as the direct result of the invention of the fast wheel and of the wheel-throwing technique.

Recent discussions of Mycenaean long-distance exchanges with the ‘East’ have focused on the goods exchanged, their means of production and shipment, and their significance for consumers. Despite voluminous research on these topics, consideration of Mycenaean long-distance exchanges with the eastern Mediterranean vis-à-vis the Cycladic islands during the Palatial Period has been minimal.

Recent biographies of Sir Arthur Evans and histories of his excavations at Knossos have made it clear that Evans’s description of Minoan religion was not solidly based on the material evidence at Knossos. By the time Evans wrote The Palace of Minos he was fully committed to the belief that the Minoans worshipped a single Great Mother Goddess in many guises, along with a subordinate male deity, her son.

Tribological analysis is employed in a pilot study of the technological steps involved in the manufacture of a polished obsidian bracelet from Aşikli Höyük, an Aceramic Neolithic site in Central Anatolia (8300–7500 cal. B.C.).

Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) is applied to the study of four samples of opaque glass of Late Bronze Age date. The technique is uniquely capable of identifying compositional heterogeneity at a sub-micron resolution within the crystalline opacifiers dispersed through homogeneous glass matrices.

This paper summarises the current development in the southern Ionian Islands (Kefallinia and Zakynthos) prehistory and places it within the context of seafaring. Archaeological data from the southern Ionian Islands show human habitation since Middle Palaeolithic going back to 110 ka BP yet bathymetry, sea-level changes and the Late Quaternary geology, show that Kefallinia and Zakynthos were insular at that time.

In 1901, Harriet Boyd excavated several Minoan structures on the coast at Gournia. She subsequently focused her attention on the Late Bronze Age town of Gournia and did not publish her work on the coast. In 2008 and 2009, the Minoan remains investigated by Boyd along the shore and coastal plain of Gournia were cleaned, mapped, and photographed.

The recovery of two groups of crucibles from the Neopalatial and Postpalatial phases of the Bronze Age settlement at Palaikastro on Crete permits the investigation not only into how their fabric was made up, how they were used and what materials they were producing, but also to what extent these matters had changed in the two intervening centuries in the third quarter of the 2nd millennium BC.
