The Cycladic and Aegean Islands in Prehistory

Analyzing the development of the Cycladic and Aegean islands from their earliest settlement in the Mesolithic through to the end of the Mycenaean period, The Cycladic and Aegean Islands in Prehistory traces the major environmental, cultural and religious transformations of these communities.

This textbook offers an up-to-date academic synthesis of the Aegean islands from the earliest Palaeolithic period through to the demise of the Mycenaean civilization in the Late Bronze III period. The book integrates new findings and theoretical approaches whilst, at the same time, allowing readers to contextualize their understanding through engagement with bigger overarching issues and themes, often drawing explicitly on key theoretical concepts and debates. Structured according to chronological periods and with two dedicated chapters on Akrotiri and the debate around the volcanic eruption of Thera, this book is an essential companion for all those interested in the prehistory of the Cyclades and other Aegean islands.
