Index

"This volume is a collective, multi-regional, multiperiod, and multi-disciplinary reflexion on what is and what should be classical archaeology. [...] Classical Archaeology in Context is the first (hand)book of its kind. [...] This book will surely inspire historians and archaeology practicians and can help to develop a best practice guide in our field."
Florence Gaignerot-Driessen in: Journal of Greek Archaeology 2 (2017), 429-432
