Depuis la decouverte, il aura fallu attendre 80 ans pour aboutir a cette publication de grande qualite, qui interessera autant les archeologues que les historiens de la religion et de la societe grecque. * Museum Helveticum * The publication itself is as significant as its subject: it represents a model for archaeological publications, careful as the authors are to evaluate and integrate multiple lines of evidence and inquiry, consider different interpretations for the formation of the deposit, and engage in differential diagnosis, as it were, for analyses and interpretations. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review * 'Unlike most multidisciplinary volumes, this text weaves together a clear, concise, and coherent narrative. While the content is academic, the writing shines with an accessible empathy.'

While the content is academic, the writing shines with an accessible empathy.' * American Journal of Archaeology *
