Mediterranean Horizons: Archaeological Studies in Honour of Søren Dietz

Edited by Pernille Bangsgaard, John Lund, Peter Pentz & Lasse Vilien Sørensen Leiden 2026

The Mediterranean has always been a crossroads of cultures, ideas, and histories. From the Stone Age to the first millennium BC, this vibrant region shaped—and was shaped by—the movements of people, the exchange of goods, and the rise of complex societies. Mediterranean Horizons celebrates the career of Søren Dietz, a pioneering archaeologist and founder of The Danish Institute in Athens whose work has illuminated these connections across time and space.

Palace and Landscape at Palaikastro 2016–22

Edited by Carl Knappett, Alexandra Livarda, and Nicoletta Momigliano London

This volume presents the results of a five-year survey and excavation project at Palaikastro (east Crete). By shining a light on the site’s immediate landscape, the project has revealed long-term agropastoral subsistence strategies in the area, from the Neolithic to the Late Bronze Age.

Power and Place in the Prehistoric Aegean and Beyond: Studies in Honor of James C. Wright

Edited by Susan E. Allen, Robert Schon, and R. Angus K. Smith Pensylvania

This volume celebrates the contributions and impact of our mentor, colleague, and friend, James C. Wright, on the field of Aegean Bronze archaeology in recognition of his retirement from Bryn Mawr College. The title and thematic orientation reflect his scholarly attention to power inequalities in the past, particularly as manifested through social access to architectural spaces and landscapes.

Taking Home Agamemnon. The Casts of the Lion Gate at Mycenae

Jan Driessen & Tina Kalantzopoulou Louvain 2024

Taking Home Agamemnon. The Casts of the Lion Gate at Mycenae The Lion Gate is an icon, a piece of art more than 3300 years old, representing the glory of Mycenaean Greece. Preserved in situ, it has passed through time and circumstance, witnessing its own civilisation fail and many others flourishing since. Often considered as an emblem for the royal house of Mycenae, it is the only surviving piece of large-scale sculpture of the Greek Bronze Age.

LM IIIB Knossos and its relations to Kydonia

Birgitta P. Hallager Stockholm 2025

LM IIIB Knossos and its relations to Kydonia The date of the de­struc­tion of the palace at Knos­sos on Crete has been one of the key problems of Aegean pre­his­tory since the palace was ex­ca­vated at the be­gin­ning of the 20th cen­tury. The ex­ca­va­tor Arthur Evans ar­gued for an LM II date as he pre­sumed that the inscribed tablets found in the palace de­struc­tion lay­ers must have been writ­ten by the peo­ple who had pro­duced the large and richly adorned Palace Style jars which he dated to the LM II pe­riod.

The Lady of Pottery. Ceramic Studies Presented to Penelope A. Mountjoy in Acknowledgement of Her Outstanding Scholarship

Anna Lucia D’Agata & Peter Pavúk (επιμέλεια) Rome 2023

The Lady of Pottery. Ceramic Studies Presented to Penelope A. Mountjoy in Acknowledgement of Her Outstanding Scholarship It was during a conference dinner in Rome, a few years ago, that we started talking about a collective volume in honour of Penelope Mountjoy that now we can hold in our hands. Being a scholar of an indisputable quality, which transcends time and space, this volume does not intend to celebrate a special anniversary, but rather our honoree’s extraordinary and enduring contribution to Aegean archaeology.

Emmett L. Bennett Jr., José L. Melena, Dimitri Nakassis, Jean-Pierre Olivier & Thomas G. Palaima (eds) Columbus 2025

The Palace of Nestor at Pylos in Western Messenia. Vol. IV. The Inscribed Documents In 1939, on the first day of excavation on a hill in western Messenia, Carl W. Blegen uncovered a Mycenaean palace that he called The Palace of Nestor. Its archives contained clay tablets inscribed in the so-called Linear B script, a syllabary employed to record the Greek language.

KO-RO-NO-WE-SA. Proceedings of the 15th international colloquium on Mycenaean studies

John Bennet, Artemis Karnava & Torsten Meißner (επιμέλεια) Ρέθυμνο 2024

KO-RO-NO-WE-SA. Proceedings of the 15th international colloquium on Mycenaean studies As editors and organisers, we were gratified to note a good number of early- and mid-career scholars among those contributing to this volume, and even more early-career scholars and students had expressed an interest in attending the meeting itself, leaving the editors in no doubt that interest in Mycenaean, and indeed Aegean studies more widely, is unbroken and continues to attract the intellectual attention of rising academics in a large number of disciplines.

Phylakopi, Melos, 1896–99: The Finds in the National Archaeological Museum, Athens

R. L. N. Barber (επιμέλεια) London 2024

Phylakopi, Melos, 1896–99: The Finds in the National Archaeological Museum, Athens The site of Phylakopi on Melos occupies a special place in the prehistory of the Aegean Bronze Age. The first work there by the British School at Athens in 1896–99 (there were two further campaigns, in 1911 and 1974–77) was memorably described by Carl Blegen as ‘the first really serious effort to understand stratification, the first really good excavation in Greece’. The Field Director, Duncan Mackenzie, kept detailed day-to-day records of the work, later applying methods developed on Melos to the excavation of Knossos.

Synchronizing the Destructions of the Mycenaean Palaces

Reinhard Jung και Ελευθερία Καρδαμάκη (επιμέλεια) Vienna 2022

Synchronizing the Destructions of the Mycenaean Palaces The Late Bronze Age Mycenaean palaces in southern and central Greece stood at the head of the earliest state system on the European continent. The authors, all leading scholars in Bronze Age research and often engaged in excavating the palace sites themselves, focus in their contributions on the most recent progress in pottery studies, in order to arrive at precise relative chronological dates of the destruction events. The investigated archaeological sites range from Crete in the south to the Peloponnese with the palaces of Pylos, Ayios Vasileios, Mycenae and Tiryns and further north to central Greece with the palace of Thebes, while contemporary sites on Cyprus and in Syria are taken into consideration as well.
