1992Best.-Nr. 34973Cambridge University Press. Very Good. Softcover. Scholar's initial to inner cover Jenifer Neils.; The purpose of this book is to acquaint a wider audience with an archaeological project that could hardly be more revolutionary: the effective discovery and excavation from 1952 onwards of the first Greek establishment in the West Euboean Pithekoussai on the island of Ischia in the Bay of Naples. This vast trading settlement is not at all typical of the Western colonial scene. Pithekoussi is very large and very early and it marks the northern limit of Greek South Italy; furthermore the earliest immigrants may not all have been Greek. This book about Pithekoussai and its implications is based on Giorgio Buchner's excavations there which have revealed a variety of component sites so far without parallel in the contemporary Greek homeland.

DJ flap creased.; 1.25 x 9.75 x 6.75 Inches; 324 pages; From household gossip to public beatings this social history explores the many channels through which Athenians maintained public order. Virginia Hunter draws mostly on Attic court proceedings which allowed for a wide range of evidence including common rumors about a defendant's character and testimony obtained under torture of slaves against their masters. She describes Athenian "policing" as a form of social control that took place across a range of private and public levels. Not only does policing appear to have been a collective enterprise but its methods were embedded in a variety of social institutions resulting in the blurring of the line between state and society. Hunter's inquiry into topics such as household authority disputes among kin the presence of slaves in the house gossip in the home and neighborhood and forms of public punishment reveals a continuum extending from self-regulation among kin to punitive actions enforced by the state. Recognizing the bias of legal documents toward the wealthy Hunter concentrates on exposing the voices of the less powerful and less privileged members of society including women and slaves. In so doing she is among the first to address systematically such important issues as the authority of women self-help and corporal punishment. . 1993. 0691032688 .
