Περίληψη (στα Αγγλικά)
The focus of much recent archaeological study of urbanism has been on the relationship between urban centres and the rural sphere. However, this important line of inquiry has generally neglected the internal workings of cities. This volume presents an archaeological approach to urbanism in the ancient Aegean and related areas. In a series of articles investigating case studies from the Minoan palace centres of Bronze Age Crete to Hellenistic Beirut, it highlights the importance of analysing urban centres from within, to explore the widely differing ways in which people lived in, perceived and modified their built environments in the Greek world.
