The chronology of Greek bronze tripods of the geometric type and the possibilities of a political-historical interpretation of the find distribution
Archäologischer Anzeiger 2010/1: 91-104.
Bronze tripods were particularly suitable as a means of formulating social status since they were one of the most prestigious types of movable items and because of their character as a exchange item with a value easy to assess.

Surface evidence for the history of large settlements in central Crete
Archäologischer Anzeiger 2010/1: 13-89.

Yet the histories of the latter have tended to dominate our understanding of the polis form. The factors contributing to this difference, and to the whole process of state emergence in Early Iron Age-Archaic Crete, have not been much analysed, restricting our understanding of the origins of the earliest consensualist political structures.Η αρχαιολογική σκαπάνη στην Ικαρία
