Bryan E. Burns

4.9/5 (28238 ratings)

Description:The impact of long-distance exchange on the developing cultures of Bronze Age Greece has been a subject of debate since Schliemann's discovery of the Shaft Graves at Mycenae. In Mycenaean Greece, Mediterranean Commerce & the Formation of Identity, Bryan E. Burns offers a new understanding of the effects of Mediterranean trade on Mycenaean Greece by considering the possibilities represented by the traded objects themselves in their Mycenaean contexts. A range of imported artifacts were distinguished by their precious material, uncommon style & foreign writing, signaling their status as tangible evidence of connections beyond the Aegean. The consumption of these exotic symbols spread beyond the highest levels of society & functioned as symbols of external power sources. Burns argues that the consumption of exotic items thus enabled the formation of alternate identities & the resistance of palatial power.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
