"Ancient Monuments and Modern Identities sets out to examine the role of archaeology in the creation of ethnic, national and social identities in 19th and 20th century Greece. The essays included in this volume examine the development of interpretative and methodological principles guiding the recovery, protection and interpretation of material remains and their presentation to the public. The role of archaeology is examined alongside prevailing perceptions of the past and is thereby situated in its political and ideological context. The book is organized chronologically and follows the changing attitudes to the past during the formation, expansion and consolidation of the modern Greek State"--Provided by publisher.

"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 time frame 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. Material changes are highlighted in the various papers, ranging from pottery and burials to domestic architecture and settlement structures, followed by discussions of how these changes relate to social change. A variety of factors is thereby considered including demographic changes, reciprocal relations and sumptuary behaviour, household organization and kin structure, age and gender divisions, internal tensions, connectivity and mobility. As such, this volume is of interest to both Aegean prehistorians as to scholars interested in social and material change. The volume consists of eight papers, preceded by an introduction and concluded by a response. The introduction gives an overview of the development of the debate on the explanation of social change in Aegean prehistory. The response places the volume in a broader context of the EH III-LH I period and the broader discussion on social change"--From publisher's website.

The last decades have witnessed the adoption and refinement of various scientific techniques that allow us to reconstruct past diets, but also to understand the role of food in social interaction. These are exciting developments, but the proliferation of analytical techniques may also lead to over-specialization and fragmentation of the field. The papers in this volume explore the relation between diet, economy and society in the ancient Greek world by integrating different analytical techniques. Examples include the analysis of plant and animal remains, the bioarchaeological study of human remains, stable isotope and dental microwear analysis as well as the examination of organic residues. However, the aim of this volume is not only to compare different methods of analysis, but also to integrate method and theory and to reflect more widely on the integration of science and archaeology.

À l'époque où s'épanouit en Crète la civilisation des premiers palais minoens (première moitié du IIe millénaire av. n.è.), la Grèce continentale traverse une période généralement considérée comme une phase de stagnation, voire de régression : l'Helladique Moyen. La relative austérité de la culture matérielle et le caractère rudimentaire des structures sociales mésohelladiques expliquent sans doute le peu d'intérêt longtemps suscité par cette période. Or, les recherches récentes tendent à corriger cette image : l'Helladique Moyen apparaît aujourd'hui comme une période de profonds changements d'ordre social, politique et culturel qui conduisirent peu à peu à l'émergence de la civilisation mycénienne. Il a donc paru nécessaire de faire le point en organisant le premier colloque international sur l'Helladique Moyen. Le volume des actes, qui réunit près d'une centaine de contributions sur divers aspects de la culture mésohelladique, constitue ainsi le premier ouvrage entièrement consacré à l'une des périodes les plus mal connues de la protohistoire égéenne.
