Coles Argos Through the Argive Lens: A Reappraisal of an Ancient City at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Argos was one of the most important cities in ancient Greece—if we follow Isocrates and Strabo. However, it has generally been studied as a secondary participant compared to its more important neighbours like Athens and Sparta. This work places Argos centre-stage and attempts to see the Greek world through Argive eyes. In this volume, top specialists of Argos analyse an array of evidence (including archaeological, epigraphic, and literary, among others) using new methodologies and recent research to grant Argos its full weight. Studies traverse the local, regional, and Mediterranean scales, from the Archaic to the Imperial period, and emphasize Argos’ interactions with different actors, from the small komai (villages) of its territory to the greatest powers of the Mediterranean, such as the Macedonians and Romans, to ensure its hegemony over the northeast Peloponnese.
