Argos and the Argolid (Routledge Revivals)

From the End of the Bronze Age to the Roman Occupation

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Argos and the Argolid, first published in 1972, presents a study of the history and achievements of the Argives, who have hitherto been largely neglected: partly because Classical Argos is overshadowed by the legends of an earlier millennium, and partly because many of her monuments and records have been lost. This thorough treatment is intended to correct the usual bias in favour of the better documented affairs of Athens and Sparta.
