The Archaeology of Greek Colonisation

Essentially unchanged from the 1994 hardbound edition, this group of eight essays was first produced in honor of the retirement from Oxford U of the well known classical scholar, John Boardman. The essays concern issues of colonization by the Greeks in the Black Sea, Italy, the northwest Mediterranean, and North Africa, as well as Greek colonization in the early iron age. A map is included.
