From ‘LUGAL.GAL’ to ‘Wanax’
kingship and Political Organisation in the Late Bronze Age Aegean
2019 || Hardcover || Jorrit Kelder e.a. || Sidestone Press
In this book the much-debated problem of political organization in Mycenaean Greece (ca. 1400-1200 BC) is analysed and contextualised through the prism of archaeology and contemporary textual (Linear B, Egyptian and Hittite) evidence.
From the early 14th century BC onwards, Hittite texts refer to a land Ahhiya(wa). The exact geographic position of this land has been the focus of academic debate for more than a century, but most specialists nowadays agree that it must have been a Hittite desig...

The Architecture of Mastaba Tombs in the Unas Cemetery
Paperback || Ashley Cooke || Sidestone Press
Until comparatively recently, there has been little attempt to produce a detailed study of the architectural make-up of multi-roomed mastaba tombs and the implications of these observations for understanding the ways in which this type of tomb was really used. No thorough and comprehensive investigation has ever been dedicated to the building techniques, materials and design of mastabas or, indeed, who built them.
"The Architecture of Mastaba Tombs" considers the architectural components of t...

Heinrich Schliemann’s travels through Spain in 1859

Constructing monuments, perceiving monumentality and the economics of building
Theoretical and methodological approaches to the built environment
Paperback || Irene Vikatou || Sidestone Press
In many societies monuments are associated with dynamic socio-economic and political processes that these societies underwent and/or instrumentalised. Due to the often large human and other resources input involved in their construction and maintenance, such constructions form an useful research target in order to investigate both their associated societies as well as the underlying processes that generated differential construction levels. Monumental constructions may physically remain the s...

Stonehenge for the Ancestors: Part 2
Synthesis
2022 || Paperback || Mike Parker Pearson e.a. || Sidestone Press

Rural Settlement
Relating buildings, landscape, and people in the European Iron Age
2019 || Paperback || Manuel Fernández-Götz e.a. || Sidestone Press
The majority of humanity have lived out their lives in a 'rural' context, and even in our increasingly urbanised world almost half of the global population still live in rural areas. In the European Iron Age, the vast mass of the population clearly lived in small hamlets and farmsteads, and this overarching 'rurality' is important for understanding these societies. While there has been a pronounced focus in recent archaeological research on patterns of centralisation and urbanisation, there i...

The Naos of Amasis
a monument for the reawakening of Osiris
Hardcover || Marco Zecchi || Sidestone Press
The naos AM 107 of the Museum of Antiquities of Leiden was built by king Amasis in the VIth century BC, a period that saw an intense production of monolithic shrines. Despite its not impressive dimensions, however, the naos of Leiden stands out for its originality. What is particularly interesting about this monument is that its distinctiveness is strictly connected to the nature of its recipient.
Amasis dedicated the naos to Osiris Hemag, one of the most important and enigmatic Osirian forms...

Settlement change across Medieval Europe
Old paradigms and new vistas
2019 || Hardcover || Niall Brady e.a. || Sidestone Press
The idea that the past was an era with long periods of little or no change is almost certainly false. Change has always affected human society. Some of the catalysts for change were exogenous and lay in natural transformations, such as climate change or plant and animal diseases. Others came from endogamous processes, such as demographic change and the resulting alterations in demographic pressure. They might be produced by economic changes in the agrarian economy such as crop- or stock-breed...

Resonant Histories
Pacific artefacts and the voyages of HMS Royalist 1890-1893
Hardcover || Alison Clark || Sidestone Press
This book explores a complex relational assemblage, a collection of 1481 Pacific artefacts brought together by Captain Edward Henry Meggs Davis, during the three voyages of HMS Royalist between 1890-1893. The collection is indicative not just of a period of colonial collecting in the Pacific, but also the development of ethnographic collections in the UK and Europe. This period of history remains present in the social and cultural lives of many Pacific Islanders today.
Using the collections as...
