Greek Mesolithic: Problems and Perspectives

by Nena Galanidou and Catherine Perles

The discovery and excavation of Franchthi Cave provided, for the first time, a well-stratified sequence of pre-Neolithic deposits on mainland Greece. It is inevitable that a number of the papers in this book focus on Franchthi and its important contribution to our understanding of Mesolithic sequences in the Aegean. Others report on finds from the Theopetra Cave, the Cave of Cyclope on Youra and Klisoura Gorde, as well as more general overviews and synopses of vegetation and climatic data, radiocarbon dating, lithic material, faunal and human remains. The papers were given at a symposium held in Cambridge in 1999. Abstracts are provided in English and Greek; papers in English. 224p, b/w figs, tbs (British School at Athens Studies 10, 2003)
