Ritual Journeys to Caves during the Greek Neolithic
This article explores the role of travel in the formation of cave cults during the Neolithic period in the Aegean. It examines how movement to ritual caves influenced cult practices, considering factors such as geography, accessibility, and cultural exchange. While most Neolithic cave cults functioned as local ceremonial sites, long-distance pilgrimage was rare before the Bronze Age in the Aegean. Two case studies illustrate this dynamic: the Ale…
Ritual use, consumption, and depositional practices at Agriomernos Cave, Northwestern Samos (Greece)
This study utilises pottery as a proxy to identify patterns of use and consumption, as well as depositional strategies at Agriomernos, a recently discovered cave site on Samos Island (Greece). This discovery challenges our understanding of human–landscape interaction within a marginal region across two distinct prehistoric chronological episodes. As part of a broader research project, this paper presents the results from an integrated, multiscale…
Standardized patterns in the ceramic craft at Early Bronze Age Helike, Achaea, Greece
Methods for developing 3D visualizations of archaeological data
The Digital Helike Project aims at the digitization of archaeological data from the Helike Project, Achaia, Greece. This paper advances understanding of Early Bronze Age house building techniques with focus on corridor houses. The Helike Corridor House is a fine example of an architectural style of the Early Helladic period EH II/Early EH III on the Greek mainland and it is used here as a case study. A methodology for 3D reconstruction is describ…
Cave heritage in Greece
The Ephorate of Palaeoanthropology and Spelaeology (EPS) is the state-run body responsible for the range of issues revolving around the legal protection, management, development and interdisciplinary study of caves in Greece ( http://www.culture.gr/el/ministry/SitePages/viewyphresia.aspx?iID=1784 ). It is housed in the Ministry of Culture and Sports and is the sole institution taking an integrated overview of the issues surrounding caves in Greec…
Mainland Cosmopolitanism and the Rise of Personal Prestige
Excavations carried out by The Helike Project in the Helike plain on the south-western coast of the Gulf of Corinth, north-west Peloponnese, since 2000, have brought to light the well-preserved remains of a coastal Early Helladic (EH) II–III settlement. The site developed as a densely organised settlement during the EH II period and underwent a major architectural transformation at the beginning of the following EH III. In addition to a reorganis…
Emerging Neolithic and Early Cycladic settlements in Paros
Though big and fertile, the island of Paros is still an empty landscape for the Neolithic, since alone the only so far known site of Kastro at Paroikia, and the neighbouring islet of Saliagos are inadequate to give an overall view of the cultural and economic distribution of the Neolithic populations on the island and their site networks within it. Also, even in the EBA, the few so far located settlements compared to the known cemeteries prevent …
