Setting as a starting point the introduction of the black-figure technique in Attic workshops at around 630 BCE, this book attempts a contextual analysis of Attic pottery until late in the first quarter of the sixth century BCE. The shapes and their functions, as well as the iconographic themes are explored through this perspective. This offers an interesting insight into funerary, cultic and profane activities in Athens and the Attic countryside, which is completed by an extensive study of the trade and distribution of Attic vases during this period. The result is a complete overview of early black-figure Attic production, enabling an afresh archaeological approach to late seventh-and early sixth-century Attic society.

A lucrative trade in Athenian pottery flourished from the early sixth until the late fifth century B.C.E., finding an eager market in Etruria. Most studies of these painted vases focus on the artistry and worldview of the Greeks who made them, but Sheramy D. Bundrick shifts attention to their Etruscan customers, ancient trade networks, and archaeological contexts. Thousands of Greek painted vases have emerged from excavations of tombs, sanctuaries, and settlements throughout Etruria, from southern coastal centers to northern communities in the Po Valley. Using documented archaeological assemblages, especially from tombs in southern Etruria, Bundrick challenges the widely held assumption that Etruscans were hellenized through Greek imports. She marshals evidence to show that Etruscan consumers purposefully selected figured pottery that harmonized with their own local needs and customs, so much so that the vases are better described as etruscanized. Athenian ceramic workers, she contends, learned from traders which shapes and imagery sold best to the Etruscans and employed a variety of strategies to maximize artistry, output, and profit.

This volume contains the proceedings of the international conference Attica from the Late Bronze Age to the End of the Archaic Period. The Spatial Roots of Politics and Society, organised by the Italian Archaeological School at Athens and the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne on 10 and 11 June 2021. The venue was originally scheduled for 13 and 14 March 2020 in Athens, but the event fell victim to the global COVID19 crisis and was eventually reorganised as an online conference in June 2021. The conference was organised in connection with the research project Lands of Meaning. A GIS Study of Space and Social Praxis in Ancient Attica from the Mycenaean Age to the Birth of Democracy (1200-480 BC), which was carried out as a Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action (MSCA) between 2017 and 2019 at the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. The Lands of Meaning project aimed to re-examine the Athenian territory from the end of the Bronze Age to the beginning of the Classical period by considering Attica as a space that was socially constructed through a constant dialogue between the landscape and the communities that inhabited it. The aim of the project was to integrate the large amount of archaeological data collected throughout the 20th c. into a heuristic and hermeneutic framework that considers the spatial and ecological dimensions of historical, cultural, political and social phenomena. The Lands of Meaning project was originally conceived as a two-year pilot project to introduce new digital methods and heuristic social theories of space. The project will be further developed at the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne as a long-term endeavour to incorporate space into archaeological thinking and to consider the material and territorial conditions of the emergence of the city-state in Athens and more broadly in ancient Greece. The conference programme can be found below. The presentations were not recorded to allow for a lively discussion. Most of the speeches given online were then converted into the contributions collected in this volume, supplemented by a chapter by Pavlos Karvonis on Roman Attica and a description of the Thorikos Archive by the Belgian team. Unfortunately, some of the lectures given at the conference could not be included in the volume. First of all, we would like to thank Emanuele Papi, Director of the Italian Archaeological School at Athens, who fully supported the project and proposed to host the conference, which was to take place in March 2020 at the School’s premises in Athens. Our heartfelt thanks go to our Greek colleagues from the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and the Ephorates of Antiquities of Attica, Eleni Andrikou, Stella Chrysoulaki, Anastasia Gadolou and Christina Merkouri, who agreed to chair the conference sessions and led fascinating and disciplined discussions. We also invited four “titans” – as we amicably called them during the conference – to a final round of talks. Tonio Hölscher, Irene Lemos, Robin Osborne and François de Polignac took up the challenge and drew fascinating conclusions from the presentations, as well as some key ideas for the elaboration of ancient history from archaeological evidence. As it would have been difficult to render these lively thoughts into formal papers, we have decided to preserve them in our oral memory. Finally, we would like to thank the Italian Archaeological School at Athens for including the publication of the conference in its collections, as well as the two anonymous reviewers whose comments have given the authors food for thoughts. This book was published with the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Action, the University Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne and the research unit “Trajectoires” (UMR 8215). While Nikolaos Arvanitis was involved in the organisation of the conference as part of his MSCA scholarship, Alain Duplouy compiled and edited all the contributions on his own. We are also indebted to Mariana Silva Porto, who thoroughly re-read all contributions, especially those written by non-native speakers, and significantly improved the texts. As a doctoral student working on the Paris project, she deserves full credit for contributing to the edition of the volume.

This volume consists consists of forty contributions written by an internationally renowned selection of scholars. The authors adopt an interdisciplinary methodology, examining both literary and archaeological sources, and a comparative perspective that transgresses national, chronological, and cultural boundaries, in order to investigate the nature of the links between text and image. This multifaceted approach to the study of ancient artifacts enables the authors to treat art and artistic production as activities that do not merely mirror social or cultural relationships but rather, and more significantly, as activities that create social and cultural relationships. The essays in this book are motivated by their authors' belief that there is no simple direct link between art and myths, art and text, or art and ritual, and that art should not be delegated to the role of a by-product of a literate culture. Instead, the contextual and symbolic analyses of artifacts and representations offered in this volume elucidate how art actively shaped myth, how it changed texts, how it transformed ritual, and how it altered the course of local, regional, and Mediterranean histories.

This volume aims to merge theoretical models with methodological approaches on ceramic technology and artisanal networks in the Classical world. This convergence of analytical frameworks allowed scholars to explore some traditional archaeological topics that usually have a very low-level of visibility, such as the skillful gestures of the craftspeople involved, the organization of the ceramic production, the dynamics of apprenticeship and knowledge transfer as well as intra and inter-regional artisanal mobility, in the Graeco-Roman ‘communities of practice’. The papers promote interdisciplinary dialogues among various fields of study, such as archaeology, archaeometry, anthropology, ethnoarchaeology, experimental archaeology, and digital humanities - such as Social Network Analysis, computational imaging, and big data analysis.

This is a study of the commemoration of Classical Greek battles, approaching monuments and other mnemonic practices as vital elements in the creation and curation of memories. It analyzes the diachronic development of battlefield, sanctuary, and city spaces, as evidenced by archaeological remains and ancient literary sources. In addition, it explores the experience of the commemorative spaces through the application of theories of space, phenomenology, and social memory. Following a biographical approach, the commemoration of each battle is organized into stages of initial commemoration, official monumentalization, memory curation, memory lapse, and reception. The research has led to several conclusions. While the commemoration of each battle can be divided into stages, these stages are not always discrete. There is variation in the types of commemorations within the stages, dependent on time, surrounding space, and the parties involved. Single commemorations can resonate differently with multiple audiences. The processes within the stage of memory curation lead to the subsequent lapse. The final stage of commemoration for each battle begins with the rediscovery of ancient monuments and continues to this day. The battles of Marathon, Leuktra, and Chaironeia are case studies for three reasons. First, they effectively span the period of Classical Greece (Marathon in 490 BCE to Chaironeia in 338 BCE). Secondly, these battles had different participants, thus allowing a variety of perspectives of both the victorious and the defeated. Lastly, these were battles that left lasting impacts in the material and literary record, making their commemoration relevant not only in antiquity, but also in the modern world.

This volume explores the effects of Greek presence in the Iberian Peninsula, and how this Iberian Greek experience evolved in resonance with its neighbouring region, the Mediterranean West. Contributions cover the Phocaean settlement at Emporion and its relationship with the indigenous hinterland, the government of the Greek communities, Greek settlement and trade at Málaga, the Greek settlement of Santa Pola, Greek trade in Southern France and Eastern Spain, the implications of imported Attic pottery in the fifth and fourth centuries BC and the conception of Iberia in the eyes of the Greeks. The Iberian Peninsula invites discussion of key notions of ethnic identity, the use of code-switching, cultural geography and the role of society in generating, developing and exploiting social memory in a changing world. The contributions in this volume provide a variety of responses and interpretations of the Greek presence, reflecting the extent of this debate and offering different approaches in order to better understand the range of evidence from the Iberian Peninsula. The Greeks in Iberia and their Mediterranean Context develops current research on the Greek presence, presenting diverse opinions and new interpretations that are of interest not only to scholars studying the Iberian Peninsula and Greek settlement but also students of identity, cultural geography and colonisation more widely, as well as the applicability of these concepts to the historical record.
