Tracing Prehistoric Social Networks through Technology: A Diachronic Perspective on the Aegean

Book Overview

This volume investigates small and large networks of contacts within and across the Aegean and nearby regions, covering periods from the Neolithic until Classical times (6000-323 BC). It explores the world of technologies, crafts, and archaeological 'left-overs' in order to place social and technological networks in their larger economic and political contexts. Examining ways of production, transport/distribution, and consumption, this book covers a chronologically large period in order to expand our understanding of wider cultural developments inside the geographical boundaries of the Aegean and its regions of contact in the east Mediterranean.
