Reviews
...a necessary addition to the current discourse on the value of identity --BMCR
'Most essays feature useful, capable presentations of the history and context of the subjects at hand, and all of them - especially given the omnipresence of identity these days - should be required reading for a modern understanding of how these particular examples of material culture can (or cannot) be theorized.' The Classical Review '... a necessary addition to the current discourse on the value of identity.' Bryn Mawr Classical Review 'The volume as a whole is a very useful - and up-to-date - discussion on current issues broadly relating to identity. The editors have successfully managed to bring together a very diverse set of papers and to link general discussions and theoretical frameworks to well-expounded and specific case studies.' The Ancient History Bulletin
