The 16th International Aegean Conference (Rencontre égéenne internationale) encompasses all the geographical regions west of the Aegean (Western Mainland Greece, the Ionian islands and the Adriatic, Italy, Sicily, Malta, Sardinia, Corsica and the Balearic islands), giving prominence to those focal points and traits of the local civilizations which internact with their Aegean counterparts of the 3rd and 2nd millienium BC, not excluding their Neolithic background. Some of the issues for which Hesperos opens the floor to discussion are the nature of Mycenaean presence in Iberia, the spread of the early technology of bronze across the Mediterranean, the expansion of phenomena connected with the Cetina "culture", the local productions and the Mediterranean trade network of goods, such as the industry of amber, glass and murex, the distribution of tumuli and their social implications as monuments for the local elites, the lack of local manufacture of Italo-Mycenaean pottery in Sicily, the nodal role of the Balkans in a "connecting cultures" process, the documentation of Cycladic elements as far away as the Ionian islands, and the aspects of the metallurgical "koine" across the LBA Adriatic and the Aegean, not neglecting the examination of "traditional" questions, such as the nature of Mycenaean imports in Italy, the spread of matt-painted pottery in the SW Balkans and the degree of "Mycenaeanization" of Epirus.

Ce recueil d'articles en épigraphie grecque est destiné à honorer l'œuvre de Stephen V. Tracy dont la recherche méticuleuse sur les "mains" - ou styles - des graveurs a transformé notre perception des inscriptions d'Attique et d'au-delà. Les vingt-neuf érudits qui ont contribué à ce volume présentent des articles qui dévoilent de nouvelles inscriptions ou de nouvelles études sur des textes connus depuis longtemps, mais aussi traitent de questions historiques, religieuses et sociales. Ainsi sont étudiées la Grèce, la Mer Egée et l'Asie Mineure occidentale sur une période qui s'étend de l'époque archaïque à l'Empire romain. Le point commun de ces Mélanges réside dans le caractère central de l'épigraphie, tant dans les problèmes soulevés que dans la conviction qu'un soin minutieux porté au moindre détail d'un témoignage épigraphique peut élargir et enrichir notre compréhension de l'histoire grecque. This collection of studies in Greek epigraphy honors the work of Stephen V. Tracy. His meticulous research on the hands of Attic letter-cutters has transformed the way we think about Greek inscriptions in Attica and beyond. The twenty-nine scholars who have contributed to this volume offer papers ranging from publication of new inscriptions and studies of others long-known to wide-ranging discussions of historical, religious, and social matters. Chronologically and geographically they cover Greece, the Aegean, and western Asia Minor from the Archaic period to the Roman Empire. What unites the work here offered to Tracy is the centrality of epigraphy to the questions addressed and conviction that careful attention to even the smallest details of the epigraphic evidence can advance our understanding of the Greek past in rich and unexpected ways.
