Summary

This short, well-illustrated volume studies the material culture produced between 600 and 300 BC in Greece and in the lands with which Greeks came into contact. The first edition examined earlier research; this new edition is organized chronologically in terms of media and concentrates on the research carried out over the past twenty years during which new discoveries have been made and old interpretations queried or overturned.
