Fundorte von Keramik ägäischen Typs in Italien

Frank W. Hulek Bonn 2013

Fundorte von Keramik ägäischen Typs in Italien The fact that Aegean type pottery is found in Italy is of great importance when we consider the cultural contacts between the Apennine peninsula and the southern Balkans in the late Bronze Age. Ever since the 19th Century its interpretation has been subject of great controversy, the colonisation with the permanent presence of Aegean groups or commercial settlements have been taken into consideration as well as the modes of exchange and the significance of imports.

Religion and Society in Middle Bronze Age Greece

Helène Whittaker New York 2014

Religion and Society in Middle Bronze Age Greece The Middle Helladic period has received little attention, partially because of scholars’ view of it as merely the prelude to the Mycenaean period and partially because of the dearth of archaeological evidence from the period. In this book, Helène Whittaker demonstrates that Middle Helladic Greece is far more interesting than its material culture might at first suggest.

Knossos. A Middle Minoan III Building in Bougadha Methochi

Giorgos Rethemiotakis & Peter M. Warren London 2014

Knossos. A Middle Minoan III Building in Bougadha Methochi From at least 1700 BC, and for several centuries thereafter, a city of substantial houses flanked the palace of Knossos in north-central Crete. Those immediately adjacent to it, like the Royal Villa or the South House, excavated by Sir Arthur Evans, are well known, as are the Little Palace and Unexplored Mansion to the north-west. In fact the whole lower western hill-slope (Bougadha Metochi, the modern village) was terraced with fine, ashlar masonry buildings, served by well-engineered paved roads.

Τετράδια Γεωαρχαιολογίας

Edited by Lilian Karali & Giorgos Ferentinos Αthens 2015

Τετράδια Γεωαρχαιολογίας Το ανά χείρας βιβλίο απευθύνεται κυρίως σε αρχαιολόγους που βρίσκονται στην αρχή της σταδιοδρομίας τους, αλλά και σε γεωλόγους που θα ενδιαφέρονταν να ασχοληθούν με την επίλυση αρχαιολογικών προβλημάτων. Η αρχαιολογική επιστήμη από τις αρχές της ύπαρξής της ως ανεξάρτητο επιστημονικό πεδίο στηρίχτηκε στις βασικές αρχές της Γεωλογίας. Συχνά, όμως, στην πράξη ο ένας επιστημονικός κλάδος επικαλύπτει τον άλλον.

Jean-Claude Poursat Paris 2014

L’art égéen 2. Mycènes et le monde mycénien Ce second volume de l’histoire de l’art égéen est consacré à l’art mycénien, depuis son apparition en Grèce continentale, vers 1600 av.

L’art mycénien naît, à Mycènes en particulier, avec les œuvres prestigieuses des tombes à fosse puis s’affirme et se transforme, d’abord lorsque les Mycéniens s’installent en Crète, au palais de Cnossos, après 1450, puis lorsqu’ils édifient eux-mêmes, à partir de 1350, leurs propres palais à Mycènes, Tirynthe, Pylos et Thèbes.

1177 B.C. The Year Civilization Collapsed

Eric H. Cline Princeton/Oxford 2014

1177 B.C. The Year Civilization Collapsed In 1177 B.C., marauding groups known only as the “Sea Peoples” invaded Egypt. The pharaoh’s army and navy managed to defeat them, but the victory so weakened Egypt that it soon slid into decline, as did most of the surrounding civilizations. After centuries of brilliance, the civilized world of the Bronze Age came to an abrupt and cataclysmic end. Kingdoms fell like dominoes over the course of just a few decades.
