This volume is intended as an introduction to the study of pre-classical cultures - Minoan, Mycenaean, Cycladic and Cypriot - which developed between the third and first millennium BC in the Aegean and eastern Mediterranean basin. The analysis of archaeological evidence linked to material culture and artistic productions together with the study on epigraphic documentation offer a picture of political, economic-social and religious structures hosting phenomena of continuity and deep cultural relations. Even before Greek prehistory, this is the story of a composite reality, which is still far from being fully understood, but which has the charm of the ancient myths and of their ability to expand and interact with other Mediterranean and Near Eastern civilisations.
