Beskrivelse
This book explores the concept of koine beyond language, focusing on how material culture spread and was shared in the early Greek Iron Age and Archaic Period. It brings together insights from twenty experts across different fields to tackle these themes.
Examining the spread and social impact of material culture in ancient Greece through the lens of koine.
The term koine, originally used to describe the common Greek dialect that emerged after Alexander the Great's conquests, has gained new meaning among scholars. It is now applied to understand regional similarities in material culture across the ancient Mediterranean.
This volume features case studies from twenty researchers who delve into how material culture was perceived, spread, and consumed during the early Iron Age in Greece. Together, these chapters critically assess the usefulness of the koine concept as a tool in historical and archaeological research.
The contributors also explore the extent to which similarities in material culture indicate genuine cultural connections. This book is an essential resource for those interested in archaeological theory and methodology, the social roles of material culture, and the history of Greece in the first half of the first millennium BC.
