The aim of this dissertation is to collect as much information as possible on agricultural practices in Macedonia from prehistory to Roman times and examine them within their social and cultural context. Chapter 1 will offer a general introduction to the aims and methodology of this thesis. This chapter will also provide information on the geography, climate and natural resources of ancient Macedonia from prehistoric times. We will them continue with a concise social and cultural history of Macedonia from prehistory to the Roman conquest. This is important in order to achieve a good understanding of all these social and cultural processes that are directly or indirectly related with the exploitation of land and agriculture in Macedonia through time.

    remote sensing Article Spatio-Temporal Assessment of Land Deformation as a Factor Contributing to Relative Sea Level Rise in Coastal Urban and Natural Protected Areas Using Multi-Source Earth Observation Data Panagiotis Elias 1 , George Benekos 2, Theodora Perrou 2,* and Issaak Parcharidis 2 1 Institute for Astronomy, Astrophysics, Space Applications and Remote Sensing (IAASARS), National Observatory of Athens, GR-15236 Penteli, Greece; [email protected] 2 Department of Geography, Harokopio University of Athens, GR-17676 Kallithea, Greece; [email protected] (G.B.); [email protected] (I.P.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 6 June 2020; Accepted: 13 July 2020; Published: 17 July 2020 Abstract: The rise in sea level is expected to considerably aggravate the impact of coastal hazards in the coming years. Low-lying coastal urban centers, populated deltas, and coastal protected areas are key societal hotspots of coastal vulnerability in terms of relative sea level change. Land deformation on a local scale can significantly affect estimations, so it is necessary to understand the rhythm and spatial distribution of potential land subsidence/uplift in coastal areas. The present study deals with the determination of the relative vertical rates of the land deformation and the sea-surface height by using multi-source Earth observation—synthetic aperture radar (SAR), global navigation satellite system (GNSS), tide gauge, and altimetry data. To this end, the multi-temporal SAR interferometry (MT-InSAR) technique was used in order to exploit the most recent Copernicus Sentinel-1 data. The products were set to a reference frame by using GNSS measurements and were combined with a re-analysis model assimilating satellite altimetry data, obtained by the Copernicus Marine Service.

  • Final Report on the Analysis of Charred Plant Remains from the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age Riverside Site of Longas Elatis in Western Macedonia, Northern Greece
    IWGP 2016 Paris : International Work-Group for Palaeoethnobotany 2016, 4-9 Jul 2016 Paris (France) Final report on the analysis of charred plant remains from the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age riverside site of Longas Elatis in western Macedonia, northern Greece. Dimitra Kotsachristou1, 2 1Ephorate of Antiquities of Kozani, General Secretariat of Culture, Greece 2Archaeological museum of Aiani, Kozani, Greece INTRODUCTION e-mail: [email protected] Over the last 25 years archaeobotanical sampling in western Macedonia and particularly in the region of Kozani has been intensive and systematic and the archaeobotanical material from several sites are under study or have been published (Kremasti Koiladas, Karathanou and Valamoti 2011, Karathanou et al. 2011, Kleitos, Stylianakou and Valamoti 2012, Phyllotsairi, Mavropigi, Valamoti 2011). This poster presents the final results of analysis of charred plant remains from the Late Neolithic and Bronze Age riverside settlement of Longas Elatis, adding significantly to the already known archaeobotanical material from investigated sites in western Macedonia. THE SITE UNDER STUDY The site is located in the low right bank of Aliakmon, the longest river entirely within Greek boarders (297km up to the point where it flows into the Thermaic Gulf, located immediately south of Thessaloniki regional unit) and particularly in the mild sloping terraces of adjacent hills, covering an area of 3000 m2 (fig. 1, 2). Additionally, it constituted a pole of attraction for people for permanent establishment from the Neolithic period and its use was not abandoned over time while ensured fertile and easily cultivable ground (Karamitrou-Mentesidi 2009, 2011). In the valleys and plains of the Aliakmon a number of important settlements, such as Longas, grew up as long ago as prehistoric times and went on to develop into important cities of the historical era (Karamitrou-Mentesidi and Theodorou 2009, Karamitrou-Mentesidi 2010).

  • About Thessaloniki
    INFORMATION ON THESSALONIKI Thessaloniki is one of the oldest cities in Europe and the second largest city in Greece. It was founded in 315 B.C. by Cassander, King of Macedonia and was named after his wife Thessaloniki, sister of Alexander the Great. Today Thessaloniki is considered to be one of the most important trade and communication centers in the Mediterranean. This is evident from its financial and commercial activities as well as its geographical position and its infrastructure. As a historic city Thessaloniki is well – known from its White Tower dating from the middle of the 15th century in its present form. Thessaloniki presents a series of monuments from Roman and Byzantine times. It is known for its museums, Archaeological and Byzantine as well as for its Art, Historical and War museums and Galleries. Also, it is known for its Churches, particularly the church of Agia Sophia and the church of Aghios Dimitrios, the patron Saint of the city. Thessaloniki’s infrastructure, which includes the Universities campus, the International trade, its port and airport as well as its road rail network, increases the city’s reputation; it is also famous for its entertainment, attractions, gastronomy, shopping and even more. A place that becomes a vacation resort for many citizens of Thessaloniki especially in the summer and only 45 minutes away is Chalkidiki. Chalkidiki is a beautiful place, which combines the sea with the mountain. Today, Chalkidiki is a summer resort for the people of Thessaloniki. It is really a gifted place due to its natural resources, its crystal waters and also the graphical as well as traditional villages.

Rachele Pierini opened the Spring session of the MASt@CHS seminars by welcoming the participants to the session. In addition to the regular members of the MASt@CHS network and colleagues and students who have already attended previous session, new guests joined the April 16 meeting: Elena Dzukeska, Massimo Perna, Kim Shelton, Trevor Van Damme, and Malcolm H. Wiener. This seminar session was the meeting of the two Morrises. The presenters for the Spring 2021 meeting were Sarah Morris, who is a regular member of the MASt@CHS group, and Morris Silver, who resumed his treatment of the cultural significance and economic importance of purple cloth that he began guiding us through in the Winter 2021 MASt@CHS session. Figure 0. Map of northern Greece showing Methone in relation to other ancient sites, by Myles Chykerda (from Morris et al. 2020:660, fig. 1). §2.1. Sarah Morris shared with us some thoughts based on results of her field project at the site of Methone in northern Greece in the region of Pieria lying roughly between the coast of the Thermaic Gulf and Mount Olympus (Figure 0). She outlined the possible relationship between this site and the Mycenaean texts. She discussed diverse evidence, extending from Homer to ancient Greek geographic literature, also including the archeological evidence at Thermaic Methone and Mycenae in the Argolid to specific entries on the Linear B tablets from Mycenae and Pylos.

  • Map 50 Macedonia Compiled by E.N
    Map 50 Macedonia Compiled by E.N. Borza, 1994 Introduction Map 50 Macedonia Map 51 Thracia The single most valuable guide to Greek and Roman settlements as far east as Philippi is Papazoglou (1988). While ostensibly a treatment of Roman towns in Macedonia, it incorporates considerable information about pre-Roman periods at many sites, and includes exhaustive and valuable notes on the ancient sources and modern scholarship. Although now largely supplanted by Papazoglou on the treatment of individual sites and the road system, Hammond (1972) presents a comprehensive overview of the historical geography and topography of Macedonia. For Chalcidice, Zahrnt’s (1971) study emphasizes pre-Roman periods. TIR Philippi, covering those parts of Thrace lying within modern Greece, is generally accurate and has comprehensive bibliographies. Isaac (1986) is a useful survey with references to the ancient sources and modern scholarship. Since the 1920s much of Thrace, especially the Chersonese, has been a military zone, with the result that archaeological survey and excavation have been severely restricted. TIR Naissus provides information about hundreds of Roman sites within the modern state of Macedonia; for areas within Greece today, however, it is less reliable. References to south Slavic scholarly investigations more recent than those listed by it can be found in MAA and ArchIug. On the Greek side, two annual publications cover continuing archaeological work in the region: the summaries of recent work cited in BCH, and the archaeologists’ own reports in AEMT. RE remains a comprehensive guide to the ancient evidence for toponyms. The ancient courses of the principal rivers flowing into the central Macedonian plain are largely conjectural because over the centuries they have frequently shifted in this highly alluviated region.

  • Theorodokoi, Asylia, and the Macedonian Cities
    Theorodokoi, Asylia, and the Macedonian Cities Ben Raynor n influential picture of the ancient Macedonian king- dom in twentieth-century scholarship was of a polity A somehow inimical to the presence or development of the polis as a political or social formation. Macedonia had urban communities, but it was argued that they possessed no genuine civic life.1 An increasing body of epigraphic evidence has overturned such a picture. Civic decrees, laws, and dedica- tions now leave us in no doubt that, from at least the mid- fourth century B.C., the Macedonian kingdom was a land of genuine poleis. Cities throughout Macedonia possessed civic institutions recognisable from elsewhere in the Aegean world (magistrates, councils, etc.) which structured meaningful local political life.2 Much recent work on Macedonia has focused on 1 For a clear summary see M. B. Hatzopoulos, “L’état Macédonien an- tique: un nouveau visage,” CRAI (1997) 7–25, at 11–12. Macedonia as hostile to the polis: A. Heuss, Stadt und Herrscher des Hellenismus (Leipzig 1937) 279–280; F. Schachermeyer, Alexander der Grosse: Ingenium und Macht (Graz/ Vienna 1949) 29; H. Bengtson, Philipp und Alexander der Grosse (Munich 1985) 121. 2 The epigraphic evidence to date was compiled in M. B. Hatzopoulos, Macedonian Institutions under the Kings I–II (Athens 1996); see also his “Some New Documents from the Macedonian Chancery. Problems of Form and Content,” in ΚΕΡΜΑΤΙΑ ΦΙΛΙΑΣ.
