Oliver Dickinson has written a scholarly, accessible and up-to-date
introduction to the prehistoric civilizations of Greece. The Aegean
Bronze Age saw the rise and fall of the Minoan and Mycenaean
civilizations. The cultural history of the region emerges through a
series of thematic chapters that treat settlement, economy, crafts,
exchange and foreign contact, and religion and burial customs. Students
and teachers will welcome this book, but it will also provide the ideal
companion for amateur archaeologists visiting the Aegean.
