Our Cups Are Full: Pottery and Society in the Aegean Bronze Age. Papers Presented to Jeremy B. Rutter on the Occasion of his 65th Birthday

Edited by Walter Gauss, Michael Lindblom, R.A.K. Smith & James C. Wright Oxford 2011

Our Cups Are Full: Pottery and Society in the Aegean Bronze Age. Papers Presented to Jeremy B. Rutter on the Occasion of his 65th Birthday Most of us first encounter Festschriften when in graduate school. In the seminar at Bryn Mawr they were all grouped together on several shelves. There I became accustomed to expect, upon opening one, to see a formal photograph of a mature to ageing scholar in a formal suit or dress. Nowadays we generally have dispensed with these formalities, in part because of our changing use of the camera and perception of what the image should convey.

Archéologie du territoire, de l’Égée au Sahara

Edited by Georgia Kourtessi-Philippakis & René Treuil Paris 2011

Archéologie du territoire, de l’Égée au Sahara L’archéologie du territoire a cherché le plus souvent à cerner des zones d’approvisionnement, des zones de culture et des zones d’élevage et a pu retracer ainsi l’organisation progressive de ces ensembles, depuis le territoire «ethnique», défini par le groupe qui l’occupe, jusqu’au territoire «civique», défini par une organization politique et défendu par elle.
