Cutting the Gordian knot. The iconography of Megaron 2 at Gordion

Opuscula 8 (2015): 99-122

This article examines the incised drawings of Early Phrygian Gordion, and in particular those of Megaron 2. Aspects of their iconographic and archaeological contexts are taken in to consideration, as well as literary sources and especially the story of the Gordian knot.

Evolving settlement patterns, spatial interaction and the socio-political organisation of late Prepalatial south-central Crete

Journal of Anthropological Archaeology 42 (2016): 184-197

Simulations of spatial interaction in archaeology have been successful in predicting the emergence of central sites, and political and economic hierarchies that match observed long-term settlement patterns. It still remains unclear, however, to what degree such models can effectively allow for uncertainty in the archaeological record, especially when it comes to incomplete and unevenly distributed settlement data, and how best they might incorporate artefact-scale evidence.
