  • 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.

Benizelou St. 17671 Athenas (Grecia) [email protected] Resumen: Se presenta la cartografía de la zona kárstica desarrollada sobre már- moles y esquistos del sector central de la isla de Eubea. Destaca en primer lugar el sistema de poljes, relacionados con la estructura geológica y la evolución cli- mática de la isla durante el Cuaternario. De los 12 poljes diferenciados, tres de ellos se mantienen todavía en situación cerrada. Estas depresiones presentan extensos desarrollos de superficies de aplanamiento y conos rocosos generados por procesos de criptocorrosión kárstica en diferentes momentos de su evolu- ción cuaternaria. Por otra parte, las áreas de cumbre aparecen con restos de superficies aplanadas heredadas, afectadas por campos de lapiaz y dolinas. Se propone un modelo evolutivo y se relaciona con otras áreas kársticas del ámbito mediterráneo. Palabras clave: Grecia, Karst, poljes, Cuaternario. Abstract: A geomorphological mapping of a karstic area developed on marbles and schists in the central sector of the island of Eubea is presented. The system of poljes constitutes the main geomorphological feature.

  • 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.

    THE DEMES OF ERETRIA (PLATE XXII) ID URING the greater part of classicalantiquity Eretria was the most important city of Euboea,1and for a considerable period she was the capital of a territory which comprised the whole southern half of the island except for the small plain of Karystos at its tip.2 There is a considerable number of inscriptions which list the names of Eretrians of the late fourth and early third centuries B.C. Why they were set up is usually not clear, but it is interesting in any case to know the names of about 3,000 nearly contemporary Eretrians, and for our present purpose it is fortunate that at Eretria, as at Athens, the name of his deme was part of the formal style of the citizen. Some fifty of the Eretrian demes are known by name (often only in an abbre- viated form); there were doubtless more of them,-indeed our knowledge of several depends on a single inscription, and the last important citizen-list to be found pro- vided two new deme-names,-but it seems probable that the names of all the larger ones are among those that have come down to us. No study of the problems connected with these demes has appeared since Ziebarth, who edited the Euboean fascicle' of I.G., XII, devoted about two pages of his Notae to a collection of what was then known of them, and to a discussion of their location. The new inscriptions published in the Supplement to I.G., XII, and a new interpretation of I.G., XII, 9, 241, make it worth while to re-examine the whole question.4 The demes, with the approximate number of citizens known from each, and the number of men from each to appear in the longer citizen-lists, are set forth in the following table.

  • Early Miocene Herpetofaunas from the Greek Localities of Aliveri and Karydia
    Published in "Historical Biology 31(8): 1045–1064, 2019" which should be cited to refer to this work.

The newly described material consists of urodelans, alytids, indeterminate anurans, turtles, crocodylians, lacertids, indeterminate scincomorphs, anguids, colubrids, KEYWORDS viperids, and indeterminate snakes. The presence of the frog Latonia cf. gigantea in Greece is documented Amphibia; Reptilia; Miocene; for the first time. Additionally, the presence of viperids in Aliveri implies a much wider distribution for taxonomy; biogeography; these snakes during the early Miocene of Europe. Of special interest is the presence of a peculiar colubrid Greece that seems to possess a hitherto unknown vertebral structure, which is herein defined as the ‘paracentral ridge’. Although incomplete, the new material has important taxonomic and biogeographic implications, as it enhances our understanding of southeastern European herpetofaunas from the early Miocene, a time period that was characterised by major dispersal and extinction events and climatic change that affected the whole continent.

  • Tracing the Depiction of the Island Through the Portolan Charts and Early Maps from the 13Th to 17Th Century
    Mapping Frankish Euboea: Tracing the depiction of the island through the portolan charts and early maps from the 13th to 17th century Andrew BLACKLER Περίληψη Η Ύστερη Μεσαιωνική περίοδος, περίοδος κατά την οποία η Εύβοια βρισκόταν υπό την κατοχή των Σταυροφόρων και των Βενετών και εκτείνεται χρονικά από το 1205 μέχρι το 1470, φαντάζει τόσο συναρπαστικά κοντινή αλλά ταυτόχρονα τόσο απογοητευτικά μακρινή. Αν και τα μνημεία αυτής της περιόδου είναι άφθονα στο νησί, κάτι που δεν ισχύει για την Κλασική περίοδο, υπάρχουν λίγες γρα- πτές μαρτυρίες που μπορούν να μας καθοδηγήσουν. Ωστόσο μπορούμε να χρησιμοποιήσουμε μια πηγή που δεν είναι διαθέσιμη στους ερευνητές της Κλασικής περιόδου. Η Ύστερη Μεσαιωνική περίοδος ήταν μια εποχή κατά την οποία αναγεννήθηκαν οι πρωτοεμφανιζόμενοι ‘πορτολανικοι’ ναυτικοί χάρτες και τα πρώιμα διαγράμματα. Η εφεύρεση της πυξίδας και η εξέλιξη του αστρολάβου που χρησιμοποιούσαν οι ναυτικοί βοήθησαν να σχεδιαστούν πιο ακριβείς χάρτες, ενώ με την ανάπτυξη της τυπογραφίας κατά τον 15ο αιώνα έγινε δυνατή η αναπα- ραγωγή των χαρτών σε μεγάλο αριθμό αντιτύπων και η ευρεία κυκλοφορία τους σε όλον τον κόσμο. Αυτό το άρθρο που στηρίχτηκε στις μελέτες του Koder1 και του Τριανταφυλλόπουλου2 καθώς και σε πιο πρόσφατες δημοσιεύσεις σχετικά με τη χαρτογράφηση της Ελλάδας, αποτελεί μέρος της έρευνάς μου για την τοπογραφία του νησιού κατά τη διάρκεια αυτής της περιόδου. Παρουσιάζει την εξέλιξη των χαρτών της Εύβοιας μέχρι το τέλος του 17ου αιώνα και διερευνά τα στοιχεία που δύνανται ή όχι να προσδώσουν πληροφορίες σχετικά με την τοπογραφία της περιόδου. Οι ιστορικοί δικαίως επικρίνουν την ακρίβεια των έντυπων χαρτών της Μεσογείου του 16ου και 17ου αιώνα.
