Le guerrier, le chat, l’aigle, le poisson et la colonne: la voie spiralée des signes. Approche sémiologique, structurale et archéologique du disque de Phaistos

Serge Collet Oxford

The Phaistos Disc is one of the most studied documents of Minoan civilization, enticing scholars and simple enthusiasts with the mysterious aura that envelops it and with its singularity among Minoan scriptures. It has entered the collective imagination, both at academic and popular levels. Archaeologists digging at Phaistos are often asked 'Where was the Disc found?'

The Alatzomouri Rock Shelter. An Early Minoan III Deposit in Eastern Crete

Edited by Vili Apostolakou, Thomas M. Brogan & Philip P. Betancourt Philadelphia

In January of 2007, a bulldozer operator was creating a parking area next to the Greek National Highway for a church near the village of Pacheia Ammos, in northeast Crete. He stopped immediately when his machine uncovered two Minoan clay jars and a human skull, and he immediately reported the discovery to the Greek Archaeological Service. Near this Minoan burial was a small artificial rock shelter dug into the soft bedrock.

Social Change in Aegean Prehistory

Edited by Corien W. Wiersma & Sofia Voutsaki Oxford-Philadelphia

This volume brings together papers that discuss social change. The main focus is on the Early Helladic III to Late Helladic I period in southern Greece, but also touches upon the surrounding islands. This specific timeframe enables us to consider how mainland societies recovered from a ‘crisis’ and how they eventually developed into the differentiated, culturally receptive and competitive social formations of the early Mycenaean period.

L’émeri. Modalités d’exploitation dans le monde égéen protohistorique et antique

Athina Boleti Paris

L'émeri, le σμύρις grec, est une roche abrasive par excellence. D’après les sources écrites, il est ex-ploité aux époques archaïque et classique. Ce livre, s’intéressant au monde égéen du Néolithique et de l’âge du Bronze (VIe-IIe millénaires av. J.-C.), tente de retracer les origines de cette exploitation et d’en éclairer les modalités. Ce travail propose un outil méthodologique adapté pour l’étude de ce ma-tériel fondé sur une documentation variée et une approche pluridisciplinaire.
