Space and Time in Mediterranean Prehistory Space and Time in Mediterranean Prehistory addresses these two concepts as interrelated, rather than as separate categories, and as a means for understanding past social relations at different scales. The need for this volume was realised through four main observations: the ever growing interest in space and spatiality across the social sciences;

In Search of Agamemnon: Early Travellers to Mycenae

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. This book, therefore, fills this gap. It looks at the English-speaking pioneers who visited the citadel at Mycenae before Schliemann, providing additional biographic references in the footnotes (and bibliography and associated sources).

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

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.
