The first indications about human presence on the area date back to the Neolithic Period (6500 - Ι3000 BC), whereas findings dated at about 2000 BC suggest that human presence at the area might actually date back to the Middle Helladic Period (2000 / 1900-1650 / 1600 B.C.). Forces from Istiaia fought during the Trojan War (13th or 12th century BC), as noted by Homer in his monumental work “Iliad”. Namely, the author of the Homeric epics called the area ‘rich in vineyards’, an indication of the commercial scale of exploitation of the vineyards grown in the city of Istiaia. Geometric, archaic and classical periods Istiaia continued to prosper both after the Trojan War, and during the Dorian Descent (around the 12th century BC), and in the years following the 8th century BC. During the first period of prosperity, the development of the area was partly due to the fact that no invasion by the Dorians was noted to the island of Evia, while during the second it is inextricably linked with the colonial activity of the city. Istiaia, however, was adversely affected by the Battle of Artemisio (480 BC) following an act of treason committed by one of its inhabitants victory finally went to the Persian invaders, which, in combination with the simultaneous prevalence of their forces in the Battle of Thermopylae, forced their opponents to retreat from Artemisio towards the island Οι αναφορές για την Ιστιαία στον Όμηρο καταδεικνύουν τη μακραίωνη ιστορία της. The references to Istiaia in the Homer’s epics demonstrate its long history. 26 της αναλυτικής απαρίθμησης των δυνάμεων που εκστρατεύουν από ονομασία του ποταμού Ξηριά. τον ελλαδικό χώρο εναντίον της Τροίας: «οι δε κατοικούντες την Όσον αφορά στην ονομασία «Αβαντίς», με την οποία προσδιορίζεται εύβοιαν ανδρείοι Άβαντες / και τη Χαλκίδα και την ερέτριαν και η εύβοια στην Ιλιάδα, αυτή υποδηλώνει ότι οι Άβαντες, ένα την πολυστάφυλη ιστιαία / …ηγεμόνευε ο ελεφήνωρ, ο τρομερός φιλοπόλεμο ελληνικό φύλο, είχαν κυριαρχήσει για ένα διάστημα σε πολεμιστής / γιος του Χαλκόδοντα, αρχηγός των μεγαλόκαρδων ολόκληρο το νησί. σύμφωνα με τη μυθολογική παράδοση, ο βασιλιάς αβάντων / αυτόν λοιπόν ακολούθησαν οι ταχείς και μακράν κόμην τους Χαλκόδων είχε υποτάξει πριν από το ξέσπασμα του Τρωικού έχοντες Άβαντες». με βάση το παραπάνω απόσπασμα, μπορούμε πολέμου τους θηβαίους, αλλά αυτοί εξεγέρθηκαν εναντίον του. να εξάγουμε το συμπέρασμα ότι η ενεργός συμμετοχή της ιστιαίας στη σύγκρουση που ακολούθησε κατόρθωσαν να τον φονεύσουν. στον Τρωικό πόλεμο (13ος ή 12ος αιώνας π.Χ.) σχετιζόταν με την αργότερα, ο ελεφήνωρ, ο γιος του Χαλκόδοντα, οδήγησε τους οικονομική ανάπτυξη της ευβοϊκής πόλης.

Η και από τους Έλλοπες που είχαν εγκατασταθεί στην ιστιαία, αλλά και ευφορία των εδαφών της περιοχής οφειλόταν στο ότι την πεδιάδα «Όχη», από το ομώνυμο βουνό της νότιας εύβοιας. της ιστιαίας διέσχιζε ο ποταμός Ξηριάς, ο οποίος μνημονεύεται από τον στράβωνα στο έργο του ως «Κάλλαντας ποταμός».

Based on the inscriptions and the geographical location of the site we propose the hypothesis that this is quite probably the spot where the oracle of “Apollo Seli- nountios” (mentioned by Strabo) would stand in antiquity. The wall ruins of the site are found on a very steep bedrock escarpment of an active fault zone, next to a hanging valley, a high waterfall and a cave.

  • Archaic Eretria
    ARCHAIC ERETRIA This book presents for the first time a history of Eretria during the Archaic Era, the city’s most notable period of political importance. Keith Walker examines all the major elements of the city’s success. One of the key factors explored is Eretria’s role as a pioneer coloniser in both the Levant and the West— its early Aegean ‘island empire’ anticipates that of Athens by more than a century, and Eretrian shipping and trade was similarly widespread. We are shown how the strength of the navy conferred thalassocratic status on the city between 506 and 490 BC, and that the importance of its rowers (Eretria means ‘the rowing city’) probably explains the appearance of its democratic constitution. Walker dates this to the last decade of the sixth century; given the presence of Athenian political exiles there, this may well have provided a model for the later reforms of Kleisthenes in Athens. Eretria’s major, indeed dominant, role in the events of central Greece in the last half of the sixth century, and in the events of the Ionian Revolt to 490, is clearly demonstrated, and the tyranny of Diagoras (c. 538–509), perhaps the golden age of the city, is fully examined. Full documentation of literary, epigraphic and archaeological sources (most of which have previously been inaccessible to an English-speaking audience) is provided, creating a fascinating history and a valuable resource for the Greek historian. Keith Walker is a Research Associate in the Department of Classics, History and Religion at the University of New England, Armidale, Australia.

Since then it has become the leading American research and teaching institution in Greece, and indeed it is the largest of all the American overseas research centers. Today, the School pursues a multifaceted mission to advance knowledge of Greece from antiquity to the present day, including its connections with other areas of the ancient and early modern world, by train- ing young scholars, conducting and promoting archaeological fieldwork, providing resources for scholarly work, and disseminating research. The ASCSA is also charged by the Hellenic Ministry of Culture and Sports with primary responsibility for all American archaeological research, and is actively engaged in supporting the investigation, preservation, and presentation of Greece’s cultural heritage.

Summary According to Marx, social changes are not always characterized only by new material productive forces, but also by new relations of production, as well as new forms of con- sciousness, religion, philosophy, ethics, etc. In that context, the society’s transitional pas- sage from agrarian to modern industrial modes of production brought into the political arena new social classes and antagonisms, completely changing all pre-existing relation- ships, norms and values in almost every aspect of social life. One the one hand, the newly-rising capitalist class invariably demanded the implementation of radical agrarian reforms as a prerequisite for transforming traditional agriculture into a modern farming system that would be better able to adjust to new market economy’s circumstances. On the other hand, industrial revolution significantly redefined the traditional view of gender roles within the household, allowing women to enter the paid labour market, diminishing sex-stereotyping, and reinforcing women’s autonomy and independence.
