The book was, for the most part, favorably reviewed, occasionally cited, and went quickly out of print. At the time of its publication, I was a full-time viticulturist with no plans either to reenter academic life or to pursue serious research about the ancient Greek world again. Except when the occasional letter of encouragement from a classical scholar arrived, I too forgot about this thesis and went on with the business of trying to preserve our small family tree- and vine-farm during the agricultural recessions of the 1980s. I recalled that a fellow graduate student at Stanford University had remarked to me in January 1980, when I was finishing my dissertation, that few scholars had any interest in ancient warfare, much less Greek farming. Worried over that dual warning, I learned from an informal look at library card catalogues of published works in classics that no English-language book or monograph about the ancient Greek world had appeared with the word "agriculture" in its title or subtitle in the sixty years since W. E. Heitland's engaging study Agricola: A Study of Agriculture and Rustic Life in the Greco-Roman World from the Point of View of Labor (Cambridge, < previous page page_ix next page > file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Nidia%20Santo...os/NUNO-BOOKS/scanear/0520215966/files/page_ix.html [10-02-2009 20:40:01] page_x < previous page page_x next page > Page x 1921). So I was not surprised that by 1985 Warfare and Agriculture was found only in a few libraries and was little known; indeed I had long ago given away all but one of my complimentary books to scholars kind enough to write me on the farm expressing interest in finding a copy. Little did I know that as I was farming in Selma, California, in the early and mid-1980s classical scholars were well in the process of reinventing the entire field of ancient Greek warfare and agriculture. Ongoing field surveys of the Greek countryside were exploring ancient population densities, settlement patterns, and the interplay between habitation and climatic and soil conditions. The completion of the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae made possible a comprehensive rather than haphazard study of the ancient Greek vocabulary of farming and fighting. Further excavations of farmhouses in southern Attica, the Crimea, and Italy were coming to light. In England, gifted Cambridge students of Anthony Snodgrass and M. I. Finley were applying various interdisciplinary approaches to ancient agrarianism, often employing theoretical models from the social sciences to reconstruct past agrarian economies and ideologies. By the late 1980s and early 1990s first-generation summaries of these specialized philological, archaeological, and historical studies were beginning to appear, including M.-C. Amouretti's Le pain et l'huile dans la Grèce (Besançon, 1986), Robin Osborne's Classical Landscapes with Figures (London, 1987), T. W. Gallant's Risk and Survival: Reconstructing the Rural Domestic Economy (Stanford, 1991), Robert Sallares's The Ecology of the Ancient Greek World (Ithaca, N.Y., 1991), B. Wells's (ed.) Agriculture in Ancient Greece (Stockholm, 1992), A. Burford's Land and Labor in Ancient Greece (Baltimore, 1993), and S. Isager and J. E. Skydsgaard's Ancient Greek Agriculture: An Introduction (London, 1993). I have had the privilege to review in print all but one of the above books; they are uniformly excellent, and many of their ideas have saved me from more errors and misconceptions than I can recount. At the same time, largely due to the selfless, two-decade effort of W. K. Pritchett (The Greek State at War, 5 vols. [Berkeley, 19711991), < previous page page_x next page > file:///C|/Documents%20and%20Settings/Nidia%20Sant...os/NUNO-BOOKS/scanear/0520215966/files/page_x.html [10-02-2009 20:40:02] page_xi < previous page page_xi next page > Page xi the study of Greek warfare was turning from its traditional emphasis on strategy, tactics, logistics, and recruitment to include comprehensive study of economy and social policy. The work of Y. Garlan (Guerre et économie en Gréce ancienne [Paris, 1989]), P. Ducrey (Warfare in Ancient Greece [New York, 1989]), and J. Rich and G. Shipley (editors of War and Society in the Greek World [London, 1993]) ensured that we saw hoplites as citizens of the polisfor so long mostly farmers who represented the property-owning infantry classand not merely anonymous warriors of the phalanx. Warfare and agriculture have become fertile areas of contemporary research in ancient Greek history, topics at the heart of the discovery of the true nature of the Greek polis. Consequently, reissue of an updated, accessible, and corrected edition of Warfare and Agriculture perhaps makes even more sense now than its original publication did sixteen years ago. In the present book, I have made some changes from the edition of 1983corrections of misprints and errors of fact; clarification of arguments; reformation of the entire text; relegation of some material to an appendix; reduction in the amount of quoted Greek and avoidance altogether of Greek scriptall in the interest of providing wider accessibility to readers outside the world of classical scholarship. In a few places in the original text and in the updated commentary, I have also inserted the results of some more recent firsthand experience with crop devastation. In the years since I wrote my doctoral dissertation, I returned to farm trees and vines in central California and was sometimes curious whether orchard and vineyard destruction was as difficult as it had once seemed to me in our ancient sources.

AIGINA AND THE NAVAL STRATEGY OF THE LATE FIFTH AND EARLY FOURTH CENTURIES The following investigation examines the role which the is­ land of Aigina played in the struggle for naval hegemony between Athens and Sparta and offers insights both into techniques of war­ fare and into the balance of power at sea in the western Aegean. One important result of such an examination is the application to the classical period of the classification of Mediterranean naval warfare conducted by rowed ships into two discrete patterns, fleet operations and A!lG'tELU by small groups of ships. The general mili­ tary situation of Athens and Sparta and the political techniques available to either city for making use of their resources and for exploiting the weaknesses of their adversary affected the viability of fleet operations and raiding, the two modes of aggression.

  • Megara's Harbours
    Chapter 4 KLAUS FREITAG – Rheinisch-Westfälische Technische Hochschule, Aachen [email protected] With and Without You: Megara’s Harbours The main question that will be addressed in this article is whether and how the harbour towns of the Megarid constituted local places in their own right. Exploring the entangled history of the polis Megara and its ports, this paper also points to the complexities behind scholarly approximations to the local horizon of an ancient Greek city-state. Population Figures and Territory Sizes The estimated population of Megara in the fifth century was c. 40,000. 1 In some calculations this figure includes a high number of slaves, c. 15,000 (cf. Plut. Demetr. 9).2 In the Hellenistic period, the number appears to have been significantly smaller. We note that, while 3,000 Megarian hoplites had fought at Plataia in 479 BCE, in 279 BCE, Megara only sent 400 hoplites to Thermopylai to face the Galatian Invasion. 3 This reduction might have been due, in part, to the secession of Pagai and Aigosthena. The epigraphic evidence from Aigosthena, discussed above, informs the estimation of population figures there, at least in the third century BCE. According to Beloch, the 1 Legon 1981: 23, based on estimations of agricultural capacities. 2 Legon 2005: 463. 3 Paus. 10.20.4; cf. Legon 1981: 301, who doubts that this was the full contingent.

The book opens a unique possibility for the reader to make his own evaluation of the postulates behind our present understanding of reality. – Tarja Kallio-Tamminen, PhD, theoretical philosophy, MSc, high energy physics The book gives an exceptionally interesting perspective on the history of science and the development paths that have led to our scientific picture of physical reality. As a philosophical question, the reader may conclude how much the development has been directed by coincidences, and whether the picture of reality would have been different if another path had been chosen. – Heikki Sipilä, PhD, nuclear physics Would other routes have been chosen, if all modern experiments had been available to the early scientists? This is an excellent book for a guided scientific tour challenging the reader to an in-depth consideration of the choices made. – Ari Lehto, PhD, physics Tuomo Suntola, PhD in Electron Physics at Helsinki University of Technology (1971).
