Economic Analyses of Prehistoric Greece
From the Neolithic to the Bronze Age
Description:... This collection of essays uses economic theory to investigate important problems in Greek archaeology, covering the Neolithic Age through the Late Bronze Age and into the Early Iron Age. Topics explored include the erosion of egalitarianism between the Neolithic and the Late Bronze Age, the early urbanization of Minoan Crete, possible survivors of the volcanic destruction of Santorini, Bronze Age Aegean shipping, the post-Mycenaean Greek population collapse and subsequent migrations, and the Sea Peoples and piracy.
