Archaic and Classical Harbours of the Greek World: The Aegean and Eastern Ionian Contexts (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781789691283)

'Archaic and Classical Harbours of the Greek World' explores the archaeology and history of ancient harbours and focuses on the Greek world during the Archaic and Classical eras. Its objective is to establish a consensus on three fundamental questions: What locations were the most propitious for the installation of harbours? What kinds of harbour-works were built and for what purpose? What harbour forms were documented? These subjects have been addressed by evaluating multiple forms of evidence (archaeological, geographical, nautical, textual, iconographic and geological) in the context of the Aegean and Eastern Ionian maritime settings.
