Tartaron presents a new and original reassessment of the maritime world of the Mycenaean Greeks of the Late Bronze Age. By all accounts a seafaring people, they enjoyed maritime connections with peoples as distant as Egypt and Sicily. These long-distance relations have been celebrated and much studied; by contrast, the vibrant worlds of local maritime interaction and exploitation of the sea have been virtually ignored. Dr Tartaron argues that local maritime networks, in the form of 'coastscapes' and 'small worlds', are far more representative of the true fabric of Mycenaean life. He offers a complete template of conceptual and methodological tools for recovering small worlds and the communities that inhabited them. Combining archaeological, geoarchaeological and anthropological approaches with ancient texts and network theory, he demonstrates the application of this scheme in several case studies. This book presents new perspectives and challenges for all archaeologists with interests in maritime connectivity. 606 $aNavigation$zGreece$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aCoastal archaeology$zGreece$xMethodology 606 $aCoast changes$zGreece$xHistory 606 $aCivilization, Mycenaean 607 $aGreece$xCommerce$xHistory, Ancient 607 $aAegean Sea$xNavigation$xHistory$yTo 1500 615 0$aNavigation$xHistory 615 0$aCoastal archaeology$xMethodology. 615 0$aCoast changes$xHistory. 615 0$aCivilization, Mycenaean. 676 $a387.50938/09013 700 $aTartaron$b Thomas F.$0720011 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463153303321 996 $aMaritime networks in the Mycenaean world$91398493 997 $aUNINA
