The Pottery from Karphi: a re-examination
edited by Leslie Preston Day
The site of Karphi, high above the Lasithi plateau, remains one of the most extensively investigated settlements of Early Iron Age Greece; it was excavated by the British School at Athens under the direction of John Pendlebury in 1937-39. In the report that swiftly followed, the pottery was not presented in detail, though much was discussed in a later article by Mercy Seiradaki. Consequently, there existed serious problems in dating the remains ...

Scholars, Travels, Archives: Greek History and Culture through the British School at Athens
edited by M. Llewellyn Smith, P.M. Kitromilides, and E. Calligas
The British School at Athens is renowned for its discoveries in Bronze Age and Classical archaeology. This book reveals for the first time that in parallel with this story of archaeology and the classics, another theme runs persistently through the history of the School from its foundation in 1886. This is the contribution of British scholars to the study of Byzantine and modern Greek culture, art and architecture, anthropology, geography, ...

Sparta and Laconia: From Prehistory to Pre-Modern. Proceedings of the Conference held in Sparta, organised by the British School at Athens, the University of Nottingham, the Ephoreia of Prehistoric and Classical Antiquities and the 5th Ephoreia of Byzantine Antiquities 17-20 March 2005
edited by W.G. Cavanagh, C. Gallou and M. Georgiadis
This conference celebrated 100 years since the beginning of work in Laconia by the British School at Athens. It aimed to carry forward from that original work a broad spirit of enquiry - the research of those early scholars ranged over every aspect of the archaeology, epigraphy, history, architecture and art history of the region. What has changed over the century since is the even greater internationalisation of the scholarly enterprise, and the ...

Aegean Wall Painting: A Tribute to Mark Cameron
edited by L. Morgan
Until his premature death in 1984 at the age of 45, Mark Cameron made a unique contribution to the study of Minoan wall painting; his published articles continue to inspire a new generation of Aegean wall painting and have expanded our perception of the Aegean and its relations with the neighboring cultures during the second millennium BC. This volume, dedicated to the memory of Mark Cameron, now brings together leading scholars in a presentation ...

Archaeological Field Survey in Cyprus: Past History, Future Potential: Proceedings of a Conference Held by the Archaeological Research Unit of the University of Cyprus, 1-2 December 2000
edited by Maria Iacovou
The volume contains fifteen papers. Ten of them record the genesis and the development of archaeological survey in Cyprus; they also discuss the reasons why the twentieth century ended with serious set-backs in the protection of cultural landscapes, despite the fact that in Cyprus survey was conducted in the name of archaeological resource management as early as 1955. The credit for this accomplishment goes to Hector Catling, who had envisioned ...

Greek Mesolithic: Problems and Perspectives
by Nena Galanidou and Catherine Perles
"This book is the first major review of the Mesolithic age of Greece," writes Colin Renfrew "If the (Franchthi Cave publications) represent a first milestone in mesolithic studies in the Aegean, this volume certainly constitutes a second. It establishes a perspective going beyond that of the single key site, allowing earlier finds such as those from Sidari on Corfu to be re-assessed, and including more recent discoveries at the Theopetra Cave, at ...
