Between Venice and Istanbul: Colonial Landscapes in Early Modern Greece

edited by Siriol Davies and Jack L Davis

Despite growing interest, the archaeology of the so-called Post-Byzantine era in Greece remains a poor cousin of classical studies. The papers in this volume survey the different regions of Greece from an archaeological as well as a documentary perspective, attempting to reveal common themes in the development of landscapes and sites between 1500 and 1800. 188p, 16 col illus, 42 b/w illus, 2 maps (Hesperia Supplement 40, American School of Classical Studies at Athens 2007)
