| The presentation of the articles in this book is organized in seven sections according to the colloquium’s oral presentations held in May 2018. Some of the 17 presented posters are also included in the respective sections. The first section deals with theoretical issues regarding the interactive relations between the center and the periphery, alongside new interpretative approaches to old data. Recent archaeological material and evidence is presented in three large sections (Central Greece – Aegina, Thessaly – Pieria, and the Peloponnese). What these presentations highlight most, is the great range of the Mycenaean civilization, its complexity and the composite cultural character of the regional sites outside the major Palace centers, as well as their political and socio-religious structure in the wider context of the Mycenaean world. The next four sections (Ionian Islands – Sicily, Epirus – Macedonia, Aegean – Asia Minor, and Crete) concern topics with regard to the western regions, the Mycenaean cultural outreach in the Italian peninsula, as well as the cultural identity and interactions between the northern areas of Greece with the Mycenaean world. Finally, the last section demonstrates the peculiarities of the Mycenaean presence on the Aegean islands and in the Asia Minor coast, as well as Crete’s special role in the historical development in the end of the Palatial period. The detailed conclusions of the volume provide a most valuable synthesis of the results in the field and highlight interpretative approaches of the recent Mycenaean finds. |
