Reviews

'… a must-read for both historians interested in the impact of war on cities and archaeologists who are dealing with the material remains of such events.' Alaya Palamidis, Bryn Mawr Classical Review '[The essays offer] fine methodological contributions to the integration of literary and archaeological evidence for the study of a single phenomenon; at the same time, they offer excellent overviews of the history of important sites like Athens, Corinth, Eretria, and Selinus, while introducing the readers to important newly-excavated sites like Methone.' Kostas Vlassopoulos, Greece & Rome
