[ ABOUT THE BOOK ] Labyrinth: Knossos, Myth and Reality Book by Andrew Shapland | This book accompanies the Ashmolean exhibition *Labyrinth: Knossos, Myth & Reality* and traces the 9,000-year history of Knossos, a place made famous in Greek myth as the palace of King Minos and home of the Minotaur. It follows early travellers who searched for the Labyrinth, the discovery of the site by Minos Kalokairinos, and its subsequent excavation by Sir Arthur Evans. | More than 30 contributors, including excavators and museum curators, examine Knossos from different perspectives. The book brings the story up to date with important recent discoveries in the area by archaeologists from Greece and abroad, and presents finds made during nearly 150 years of archaeological research. Its scope covers the mythology, archaeology and history of one of Greece's best-known archaeological sites. (MP).…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This Element focusses on the emergence of Aegean Prehistory as a discipline, starting with the first recorded encounters with prehistoric monuments and artefacts and ending with the decipherment of Linear B in 1952. It broadens the history of Aegean Bronze Age archaeology as told in popular accounts as a series of excavations of great men, particularly Heinrich Schliemann at Troy and Mycenae and Sir Arthur Evans at Knossos. Though their work is of fundamental importance for the discipline, here it is placed within wider political, institutional and intellectual frameworks. This Element also provides an overview of the work of many other archaeologists across the Aegean and the regional and historical context in which they operated. It provides a brief but comprehensive history of the formative stages of the study of Aegean Prehistory.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Crete was famous in Greek myth as the location of the labyrinth in which the Minotaur was confined in a palace at somewhere called 'Knossos'. From the Middle Ages travelers searched unsuccessfully for the Labyrinth. A handful of clues that survived, such as a coin with a labyrinth design and numerous small bronze age items. The name Knossos had survived but it was nothing but a sprinkling of houses and farmland so they looked elsewhere. Finally, in 1878, a Cretan archeologist, Minos Kalokairinos discovered evidence of a Bronze Age palace. British Archaeologist and then Keeper of the Ashmolean Arthur Evans came out to visit and was fascinated by the site. Between 1900 and 1931 Evans uncovered the remains of the huge palace which he felt must be the that of King Minos, and he adopted the name 'Minoans' for its occupants. He employed a team of archeologists, architects and artists, and together they built up a picture of the Bronze Age community that had occupied the elaborate building. They imagined a sophisticated, nature-loving people, whose civilization peaked, and then disintegrated. Evans's interpretations of his finds were accurate in some places, but deeply flawed in others. The Evans Archive, held by the Ashmolean, records his finds, theories and (often contentious) reconstructions.…

It has come about through a happy coincidence: Suzanne Keene, Reader in Museum and Heritage Studies at the Institute of Archaeology, had assembled and edited her MA students papers on museum collections and was looking for a viable way to publish them. Meanwhile three members of the 2006 PIA committee, Hilary Orange, Megan Palmer and Ian Richardson, were available and willing to put another volume into production almost immediately after Volume 17 was published. The swift translation of Suzannes first approach in December 2006 into a complete volume in time for the Museum Associations Crowded House:etc.…
