In essays by leading authorities commissioned especially for this volume, it covers the history and the material culture of Crete, Greece, and the Aegean Islands from c.3000-1100 BCE, as well as topics such as trade, religions, and economic administration. Intended as a reliable, readable introduction for university students, it will also be useful to scholars in related fields within and outside classics. The contents of this book are arranged chronologically and geographically, facilitating comparison between the different cultures. Within this framework, the cultures of the Aegean Bronze Age are assessed thematically and combine both material culture and social history. 606 $aCivilization, Aegean$vTextbooks 606 $aBronze age$zAegean Sea Region$vTextbooks 607 $aAegean Sea Region$xAntiquities$vTextbooks 615 0$aCivilization, Aegean 615 0$aBronze age 676 $a939/.101 702 $aShelmerdine$b Cynthia W. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996210089603316 996 $aCambridge companion to the Aegean Bronze Age$9245022 997 $aUNISA
