A new history of Greece in the seventh and sixth centuries BC written for the twenty-first century. It brings together archaeological material from over 100 years, employing experimental modelling techniques from the digital humanities to reveal new patterns about how Greece's first city-states traded with one another and made alliances.
This is a new history of Greece in the seventh and sixth centuries BC written for the twenty-first century. It brings together archaeological data from over 100 years of ''Big Dig'' excavation in Greece, employing experimental data analysis techniques from the digital humanities to identify new patterns about Archaic Greece. By modelling trade routes, political alliances, and the formation of personal- and state-networks, the book sheds new light on how exactly the early communities of the Aegean basin were plugged into one another. Returning to the long-debated question of ''what is a polis?'', this study also challenges Classical Archaeology more generally: that the discipline has at its fingertips significant datasets that can contribute to substantive historical debate -and that what can be done for the next generation of scholarship is to re-engage with old material in a new way.
