Reviews

It would be hard to exaggerate the importance of this work. Papadopoulos has offered a landmark study of an important body of material and an authoritative analysis that is indispensable for anyone interested in the archaeology of Athens, the Aegean of the Early Iron Age, or burial and society. This is a major reference work, like many volumes in the series of the Athenian Agora, as well as a superb model for future publicaation of cemeteries in Greece and the Mediterranean. * American Journal Of Archaeology * ...definitely worth waiting for... it will surely be the point of departure for most questions related to Athenian Early Iron Age burials for a long time to come. * Bryn Mawr Classical Review *
