Ο μυκηναϊκός πολιτισμός

Dora Vasilikou Athens 2019

H πρώτη έκδοση του Μυκηναϊκού Πολιτισμού (1995), της Ντόρας Βασιλικού, κάλυψε το «αισθητά κενό» που υπήρχε στη βιβλιογραφία και είχε επισημάνει ο Σπύρος Ιακωβίδης στον πρόλογό του. Με το πέρασμα ενός τετάρτου του αιώνος συσσωρεύτηκε πολλή και σημαντική νέα γνώση, που έκαναν αναγκαία την ανασύνταξη και αύξηση του κειμένου και της εικονογράφησης του βιβλίου.

Koukounaries, Paros. The Excavations and History of a Most Ancient Aegean Acropolis

Demetrius-Umberto Schilardi Athens 2016

It is with great pleasure that I accepted the invitation to present this handsome book about the ancient acropolis of Koukounaries on Paros. A first account about a rare Aegean acropolis, it contains the result of meticulous and systematic excavations carried out between 1976 and 1992 by Demetrius -Umberto Schilardi, Ephor of Antiquities, Emeritus, and his collaborators. Koukounaries is considered one of the most ancient acropolis sites in the Aegean.

“Sea-Peoples” Up-to-Date. New Research on Transformations in the Eastern Mediterranean in the 13th – 11th Centuries BCE.

Edited by Peter M. Fischer & Teresa Bürge Wien 2017

This volume presents the outcomes of the European Science Foundation workshop “Sea Peoples” Up-to-Date. New Research on Transformations in the Eastern Mediterranean in the 13th–11th Centuries BCE, which took place in November 2014 at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna. It offers up-to-date research on the Sea Peoples phenomenon during the so called “crisis years” at the end of the Bronze Age.

From ‘LUGAL.GAL’ to ‘Wanax’. Kingship and Political Organisation in the Late Bronze Age Aegean

Edited by Jorrit M. Kelder & Willemijn J. I. Waal Leiden 2019

In this book the much-debated problem of political organization in Mycenaean Greece (ca. 1400-1200 BC) is analysed and contextualised through the prism of archaeology and contemporary textual (Linear B, Egyptian and Hittite) evidence.

Cultural Identity in Minoan Crete. Social Dynamics in the Neopalatial Period

Ellen Adams New York & Cambridge 2017

Neopalatial Crete - the 'Golden Age' of the Minoan Civilization - possessed palaces, exquisite artefacts, and iconography with pre-eminent females. While lacking in fortifications, ritual symbolism cloaked the island, an elaborate bureaucracy logged transactions, and massive storage areas enabled the redistribution of goods.

Understanding Relations between Scripts. The Aegean Writing Systems

Edited by Philippa M. Steele Oxford & Philadelphia 2017

Understanding Relations Between Scripts: The Aegean Writing Systems arises from a conference held in Cambridge in 2015. The question of how writing systems are related to each other, and how we can study those relationships, has not been studied in detail and this volume aims to fill a gap in scholarship by presenting a number of case studies focused on the writing systems of the Bronze Age Aegean.

From Cooking Vessels to Cultural Practices in the Late Bronze Age Aegean

Edited by Julie Hruby & Debra Trusty Oxford 2017

Late Bronze Age Aegean cooking vessels illuminate prehistoric cultures, foodways, social interactions, and communication systems. While many scholars have focused on the utility of painted fineware vessels for chronological purposes, the contributors to this volume maintain that cooking wares have the potential to answer not only chronological but also economic, political, and social questions when analysed and contrasted with assemblages from different sites or chronological periods.

Akrotiri, Thera. Middle Bronze Age: Pottery and Stratigraphy (2 vols)

Irene Nikolakopoulou Athens 2019

This book examines pottery assemblages from MBA levels at Akrotiri, Thera and related stratigraphy. The first volume includes an overview of relevant evidence in the Cyclades, sections on Akrotiri stratig-raphy and chronology, the typology and iconography of local and imported pottery, fabric analysis and manufacture technology, as well as a section on ceramic weaving equipment and an inscribed loom-weight.

Daidalos at Work. A Phenomenological Approach to the Study of Minoan Architecture

Clairy Palyvou Philadelphia 2018

The Bronze Age was a time of affluence and innovation for Crete, a unique "moment" in the early history of architecture that, in a bizarre way, seems to echo the formative years of the Modern world of the 20th century AD. The mythical Daidalos, with his many attributes and tasks, stands for the prototpye of “an architect at work” following orders and desires set by his clients and by society.

Experimental Archaeology: Making, Understanding, Story-telling

Edited by Christina Souyoudzoglou-Haywood & Aidan O’Sullivan Oxford 2019

Experimental Archaeology: Making, Understanding, Story-telling is based on the proceedings of a two-day workshop on experimental archaeology at the Irish Institute of Hellenic Studies at Athens in 2017, in collaboration with UCD Centre for Experimental Archaeology and Material Culture. Scholars, artists and craftspeople explore how people in the past made things, used and discarded them, from prehistory to the Middle Ages.

Iερά και θρησκευτικές τελετουργίες στην ανακτορική και μετανακτορική μυκηναϊκή περίοδο

Δήμητρα Ρουσιώτη Athens 2018

H μελέτη αυτή φωτίζει όψεις της θρησκείας σε μια από τις πιο σημαντικές περιόδους της αιγαιακής προϊστορίας. Εδώ τα συνεχώς εμπλουτισμένα αρχαιολογικά στοιχεία υποδεικνύουν σύνθετες διεργασίες σε έναν ευρύ γεωγραφικό χώρο.

Codebreakers and Groundbreakers

Edited by Yannis Galanakis, Anastasia Christophilopoulou & James Grime Cambridge 2017

Secret texts and secret writing have an age-old fascination. In this hook two stories are told: of the people who worked on breaking vital codes in the Second World War and those who deciphered the Linear B script – Europe’s earliest comprehensible writing system. Here experts in the fields of Mycenaean epigraphy and the study of the Aegean Bronze Age join with fellow specialists in mathematics, cryptography and the history of computer.

Palaikastro: Building 1

J. A. MacGillivray & L. H. Sackett London 2019

This book presents the publication of Building 1, the first building we excavated (in the years 1986-89) and surely once the finest in its day. It is not the first volume in the series, and indeed follows the publication of the partially excavated Building 2, and Block M/Building 6.

me-ka-ro-de. Mykenische Paläste als Dokument und Gestaltungsrahmen frühgeschichtlicher Sozialordnung

Ulrich Thaler Bonn 2018

Although architecture provides a decisive framework for many forms of social interaction, thus preconfiguring them, and simultaneously represents an expression and hence a product of social conventions, few connections have thus far been made between the scholarly study of architecture and the social history of Mycenaean Greece.

Mykene. Die sagenhafte Welt des Agamemnon

2018

Die mykenische Kultur gilt als erste Hochkultur auf dem europäischen Festland. Auf der griechischen Halbinsel Peloponnes und in Mittelgriechenland erlebte sie ihren Höhepunkt zwischen 1600 und 1200 v. Chr. Heinrich Schliemann entdeckte ab 1874 durch seine Ausgrabungen in Mykene, Tiryns und Orchomenos diese prähistorische Kultur.
