Το ανασκαφικό έργο που επιτέλεσαν οι Εφορείες Αρχαιοτήτων του ΥΠΠΟΤ τα τελευταία χρόνια είναι τώρα στο διαδίκτυο. Δημοσιευμένο συστηματικά μέχρι σήμερα μόνο από την έκδοση “Αρχαιολογικόν Δελτίον”, το έργο των αρχαιολόγων του ΥΠΠΟ παρέμενε μέχρι σήμερα – εκτός από ελάχιστες εξαιρέσεις – δύσκολα προσβάσιμο και συνεπώς σχετικά άγνωστο.

Antiquity 86.331 (March 2012): 144-160.
The sanctuary on the island of Keros takes the form of deposits of broken marble vessels and figurines, probably brought severally for deposition from elsewhere in the Cyclades. These acts of devotion have now been accurately dated, thanks to Bayesian analyses of the contemporary stratigraphic sequence on the neighbouring islet of Dhaskalio.

Ever since their first discovery, more than a century ago, the Minoan Palaces have dominated scholarship on the Cretan Bronze Age. Opinion long held that their first appearance, seemingly at the beginning of the Middle Bronze Age, marked a pivotal transformation point, during which the simple, egalitarian societies of the Early Bronze Age were transformed into something significantly more complex, hierarchical and civilised.
