  • Nevett, Lisa, Ancient Greek Housing

    Open AccessJohn BintliffARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2025

    Lisa Nevett has established herself as perhaps the foremost current expert in ancient Greek housing, both in the homeland and the Greek colonial world, since the publication of her thesis on this topic in the 1990’s (Nevett 1999). She has taken her scholarship further with the significant reopening of excavations at a key ancient planned city at Olynthus in Northern Greece

  • Drone and airborne lidar in Greece

    Jesús García Sánchez, Lieve Donnellan et al.ARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2025

    Landscape research in the Mediterranean basin has evolved constantly with new research questions and theoretical approaches from the beginning of the discipline. The impact of Annales and New Archaeology on the study of political and economic landscapes in the 1970s and 1980s has been followed by postcolonial theory and other post-processual approaches to the manifold aspects of social life in ancient societies that were previously ignored or not…

  • Changes in Town and Country in Late Antiquity and into the Early Medieval Period in Greece and the Aegean Islands

    Open AccessJohn BintliffARTICLEActa ad archaeologiam et artium…2024

    The Greek Aegean in the Late Roman era (5th-mid-7th centuries AD) offers a degree of uniformity, developing further the novel urban and rural patterns that mark the previous Imperial centuries. Characteristically, small towns with fortifications and lavish Christian monuments are surrounded by commercial villa estates, while populations shrink drastically from the mid-6th century. In the 7th-8th centuries fundamental regional divergences appear. …

  • The Mediterranean Valleys Revisited

    Open AccessJohn BintliffARTICLEGeoarchaeology2024Citada por: 2Referencias: 2

    The publication of The Mediterranean Valleys by Claudio Vita‐Finzi in 1969 produced a radical change in research perspectives for our understanding of the timing and causation of erosional and depositional sequences in this macro‐region. This article will trace the debates that arose from this book and outline our current understanding of the interaction between human impact, short‐ and long‐term climatic fluctuations and landscape variability in…

  • Agricultural Intensification and the Evidence from Offsite Survey Archaeology

    Open AccessJohn BintliffARTICLEJournal of World Prehistory2023Citada por: 5Referencias: 8

    The enhancement of crop yields through manuring has been attested since early farming prehistory in many parts of the world. This article reviews the history of research into the potential archaeological evidence for this practice in Europe, the Mediterranean lands and the Near East. The focus is on the interpretation of ceramic data recovered in surface field surveys conducted since 1950 and what sorts of activities may be plausibly inferred fro…

  • A review of soil geochemistry in archaeology

    Open AccessJohn Bintliff, P DegryseARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2022

    Trace metal analysis of archaeological soils has grown in popularity in recent decades, as an additional means of measuring human impact on and off archaeological sites. Nonetheless there has been a tendency to ascribe such elements too easily to ancient metallurgy, whereas pollution research studies have identified many other causes of heightened trace metals in anthropogenic deposits. This article reviews the published history of research into …

  • The long-term programme of trace metal analysis at the ancient city of Hyettos

    Open AccessJohn Bintliff, P Degryse et al.ARTICLEJournal of Archaeological Science…2022Referencias: 1

    The Boeotia Regional Survey Project in Central Greece, has conducted surface survey on five ancient cities and across their associated landscapes since 1978. During the 1980′s and 1990′s a programme of trace metal soil analysis was begun on two of these cities, Thespiai and Hyettos, and also at a series of rural farmsites as well as over areas of countryside marked by ancient manuring carpets. Further samples were taken at Hyettos in 2015. This a…

  • Alluviation

    Open AccessJohn BintliffCHAPTERThe Encyclopedia of Ancient History2021

    The erosion of the Earth's surface deposits, soil, bedrock, and human debris, through weathering (rain, ice, wind) and gravity forms slopewash ( colluvium ) or is carried into rivers, to be borne downstream until water velocity decreases sufficiently to make the rivers gradually drop their sediment “bedload” ( alluvium ).

    Using archaeological survey data, this chapter compares the Greek and Roman experience of survival and recovery combining the urban and rural approaches.

    John BintliffARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2021

    Both the Bouras and Tsougarakis books are splendid introductions to their respective periods, Bouras on Middle Byzantine Athens, and the Tsougarakis-Lock edited volume on Frankish Greece. But the prices surely rule out owning a hard-copy of either book for almost all interested readers. At least Routledge offers a cheap online-version as a reasonable alternative access. Brill’s policy of matching online price to hard copy is quite unfathomable. C…

  • John Ellis Jones and Ourania Kouka, Elis 1969. The Peneios Valley Rescue Excavation Project / Effie Photos-Jones and Alan J Hall, ros, mercator and the cultural landscape of Melos in antiquity

    John BintliffARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2021

    Both of these books represent much belated publications of older fieldwork. Appropriately perhaps, since we could not find suitable or willing reviewers, your Editor has undertaken to review these books, also considerably belatedly. But they remain little known and so well worth recognition. The Elis Survey was a British contribution to a rescue project shared out amongst several foreign archaeological schools in Athens, to document a landscape i…

  • Gioulika-Olga Christakopoulou, To Die in Style! The Residential Lifestyle of Feasting and Dying in Iron Age Stamna, Greece

    John BintliffARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2021

    This short essay presents some of the most interesting information from a major Early Iron Age cemetery in the province of Aetolia, in North-West Mainland Greece. Its presentation is rather uneven – the location of the site is not even immediately presented in the opening text, and there is no overall plan of the site – although the content is important enough to make it worth the effort. Over 600 tombs of the earliest Iron Age, the Protogeometri…

  • Medieval landscapes of Greece and Turkey

    John BintliffARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2020

    Our colleague Effie Athanassopoulos has done an excellent job in assembling a collection of papers to reflect the current state of the art for Medieval landscape archaeology in the Aegean and Anatolia. One of the shared themes in many of these papers is the state of maturity of this subfield of Mediterranean Archaeology. It echoes a much wider question in post-Roman studies for this large region, as to how progress in this period and area compare…

  • A guide to good practice in Mediterranean surface survey projects

    Open AccessPeter Attema, John Bintliff et al.ARTICLEJOURNAL OF GREEK ARCHAEOLOGY2020

    This article deals with a relatively new form of archaeological research in the Mediterranean region – intensive surface survey, coverage of the landscape by teams walking in close order, recording patterns of human activity visible on the landsurface as scatters of pottery and lithics, or building remains. Since 2000, archaeologists from Dutch and Belgian universities working on Mediterranean survey projects have gathered annually to discuss met…

  • The Archaeology of Greece and Rome

    Open AccessJohn Bintliff, Keith RutterBOOKArchaeology of Greece and Rome2016

    Contributions to Greek and Roman archaeology and history, inspired by the work of Anthony Snodgrass Over his long and illustrious career as Lecturer, Reader and Professor in Edinburgh University (1961-1976), Lawrence Professor of Classical Archaeology at Cambridge (1976-2001) and currently Fellow of the McDonald Institute of Archaeology at Cambridge, Anthony Snodgrass has influenced and been associated with a long series of eminent classical arch…

  • Survey, Excavation and the Appearance of the Early Polis

    Vladimir Stissi, John Bintliff et al.CHAPTERThe Archaeology of Greece and Rome2016

    When writing a contribution to a Festschrift , the first thing to think of is of course a theme that relates to the honorand and her or his research. In the case of Anthony Snodgrass that is a surprisingly difficult task, because there are so many possibilities to choose from. As we all know, Anthony has produced seminal contributions to thinking about field survey, the Elgin marbles, Early Iron Age Greece, pottery styles, city planning, Archaic …
