In Search of Agamemnon: Early Travellers to Mycenae

Dudley Moore, Edward Rowlands & Nektarios Karadimas Cambridge 2014

In Search of Agamemnon: Early Travellers to Mycenae Although many books focus on the fascinating story of Heinrich Schliemann, little has been written on Mycenae before his excavations.

The Making of the Middle Sea: A History of the Mediterranean from the Beginning to the Emergence of the Classical World

Cyprian Broodbank London 2013

The Making of the Middle Sea: A History of the Mediterranean from the Beginning to the Emergence of the Classical World The Mediterranean has been for millennia one of the global cockpits of human endeavor.

Spatial analysis and social spaces. Interdisciplinary approaches to the interpretation of prehistoric and historic built environments

Edited by Eleftheria Paliou, Undine Lieberwirth & Silvia Polla Berlin/Boston 2014

Spatial analysis and social spaces. Interdisciplinary approaches to the interpretation of prehistoric and historic built environments In recent years a range of formal methods of spatial analysis have been developed for the study of human engagement, experience and socialisation within the built environment. Many, although not all, of these emanate from the fields of architectural and urban studies, and draw upon social theories of space that lay emphasis on the role of visibility, movement, and accessibility in the built environment.
