the Aegean. Through a series of lessons and illustrations, it traces the
cultural evolution of humanity in the Aegean basin from the era of
hunting and gathering (Palaeolithic-Mesolithic) through the early
village farming stage (Neolithic) and the formative period of Aegean
civilization into the age of the great palatial cultures of Minoan Crete
and Mycenaean Greece.
