Venizelou 70 (part-time) / Freelance Geologist, Navarinou 21, 152 32 Halandri, Athens, Greece, [email protected] Abstract At a newly discovered archaeological site at Aghios Taxiarches in Northern Euboea, two vo- tive inscribed stelae were found in 2001 together with hellenistic pottery next to ancient wall ruins on a steep and high rocky slope. 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. -

Three Essays on Literacy Development, Marital Instability, and Births Outside Marriage
DOCTORAL PROGRAM IN ECONOMICS OF THE TUSCAN UNIVERSITIES jointly held by the Universities of Firenze, Pisa and Siena (XXXI CYCLE) Three Essays on Literacy Development, Marital Instability, and Births Outside Marriage: Empirical Evidence from the Late Nineteenth- and Early Twentieth-Century Greece Scientific-Disciplinary Sector: SECS-P/12 Ph.D Candidate Tryfonas Lemontzoglou Supervisor Prof. John Milios Academic Year: 2018-2019 Three Essays on Literacy Development, Marital Instability, and Births Outside Marriage: Empirical Evidence from the Late Nineteenth- and Early Twentieth-Century Greece. by Tryfonas Lemontzoglou Submitted to the Department of Political Economy and Statistics on the 31st of January, 2019, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Economics. 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. -
Middle Helladic (Central) Euboea and Its Cultural Connections: the State of Research
Middle Helladic (central) Euboea and its cultural connections: The state of research Tobias KRAPF Περίληψη Η Εύβοια κατείχε καίρια γεωγραφική θέση κατά τη Μεσοελλαδική περίοδο και η στρωματογραφία της θέσης Λευκαντί έχει χρησιμεύσει ως σημείο αναφοράς για τη μελέτη άλλων περιοχών. Η ανακάλυψη 42 αρχαιολογικών θέσεων πιστοποιεί το πλούσιο παρελθόν της Εύβοιας κατά τη Μεσοελλαδική πε- ρίοδο. Περισσότερες από δώδεκα από αυτές τις θέσεις έχουν ανασκαφεί, ως επί το πλείστον σε μικρή κλίμακα, ωστόσο η περίοδος παραμένει ανεπαρκώς μελετημένη συγκριτικά με άλλες περιοχές της κεντρικής Ελλάδας. Το παρόν άρθρο συνοψίζει την ιστορία της μεσοελλαδικής Εύβοιας, αναθεωρεί τις μέχρι τώρα γνώσεις και επιπλέον έχει σκοπό να διερευνήσει τη θέση της Εύβοιας μέσα στον μεσο- ελλαδικό κόσμο. Introduction With the British excavations at Lefkandi (1964-1966) and the publication of Dickinson’s The Ori- gins of the Mycenaean Civilisation in 1977, Euboea suddenly became a region of major interest for the study of the Middle Bronze Age (MBA), and the stratigraphy of Xeropolis emerged as an important ref- erence point. Until that time, the MBA of the second largest Aegean island was almost unknown. Sack- ett et al. stated in 1966 in the introduction to their survey, that ‘the gaps in our knowledge of Bronze Age Euboea are so serious as to amount in some areas to a total blank’.1 Nowadays, Euboea has lost again its focal position in research, as the site of Lefkandi has actually still not been published in detail and the glory has passed by Euboea and gone to other regions, such as the Argolid, Boeotia and—espe- cially—the opposite shore of the Euboean Gulf: Pevkakia, Mitrou and the Malian Gulf. -
