Book synopsis

This volume presents for the first time in the history of Greek archaeology a full and detailed analysis of the artifacts discovered in the course of a large-scale and intensive regional survey - the Argolid Exploration Project, an environmental and archaeological survey of the Argolid peninsula in southern Greece conducted by Stanford University. The ceramic artifacts include potsherds from the Neolithic period to the early Iron Age, and also include roof tiles from the Early Bronze Age. The lithic artifacts include flaked-stone implements as well as non-flaked items. All the artifacts were collected from 328 archaeological sites between 1979 and 1983. The analyses of the artifacts have allowed the identification of local production, the tracing of trade patterns within and outside the region, and the construction of a chronological sequence of artifacts covering a period of some 50,000 years.
