Early Greek States Beyond the Polis

'Nothing like this detailed survey of the archaeology of areas selected precisely for not being the heartlands of the classical polis has previously been attempted ... This extraordinary achievement is bound to become a standard work of reference.' - JACT Review 'This is, then, an important and valuable study ... the data and ideas it contains deserve the widest possible circulation.' - Journal of Hellenic Studies

Klappentext
The polis has long been conceived as the most advanced form of Greek political society. Yet recent research into how early Greeks used the term highlights discrepancies with modern views of the autonomous city state.

Zusammenfassung
Clear and direct in style, and with more than eighty photographs, maps and plans, this is a widely relevant study of Greek history, archaeology and society that gives unprecedented understanding of polis identity and Greek ethnic groups.
