The Construction of Metaphysical Space: The Adoption of Minoan Cult Symbols and the Development of Mycenaean Religious Iconography. Veröffentlichung der Mykenischen Kommission|(Social) Place and Space in Early Mycenaean Greece Mykenische Studien 35|
From the beginning of the Shaft Grave period, leading people on the mainland were in the position to acquireforeign luxuries and valuable raw materials in growing quantities. Some of these prestige goods clearly served as cultequipment in Minoan Crete; others display a complex system of religious figurative scenes and motifs of undoubtedlyMinoan inspiration. Such scenes and motifs were virtually unknown in the preceding periods of MH Greece. Despitetheir foreign background, these objects had some impact on the formation of Mycenaean cult practices. It is arguedthat within this process of appropriation mainland inhabitants made a deliberate choice of the available ceremonialequipment and cult symbols. It seems that only those cult implements such as rhyta and tripod offering tables wereborrowed from Crete, which could be incorporated in indigenous MH religious traditions. Significantly, such objectswere produced until the end of the Palatial period. Correspondingly, Mycenaeans were interested in only those representationsof ritual actions and symbols which had a meaning in terms of their own religious conceptions. Along theselines, Minoan forms of artistic expression had a strong impact on the development of Mycenaean religious figurativeart and symbolism
Kolonna on Aigina: The Development of a Fortified Late Middle and Early Late Bronze Age Settlement. Veröffentlichung der Mykenischen Kommission|(Social) Place and Space in Early Mycenaean Greece Mykenische Studien 35|
The present paper summarises research and excavation work regarding the late Middle Bronze Age andearly Late Bronze Age development of the prehistoric settlement at Kolonna on Aigina. The starting point is the studiesundertaken between 2002 and 2011 in the area of the large building complex of advanced Middle Bronze Age date.There the gradual development of Aiginetan pottery production and the sudden appearance of a clear period of ‘Minoanisation’,manifested in the monumental building, Minoan imports, and the local production of Minoanising potteryin the advanced Middle Bronze Age, could be demonstrated by stratigraphic observations. At the beginning of the LateBronze Age a new trend in terms of pottery production and consumption is traceable, characterised by the appearanceof Aiginetan and Mainland Bichrome-Painted pottery and other classes of pottery, including very small amounts ofMycenaean pattern-painted pottery. This process of the ceramic ‘Mycenaeanisation’ is completed with the adoption ofMycenaean forming techniques in LH IIIA and seems enduring
Mycenaean Messenia in the Making: The Evidence from the Tholos Tombs. Veröffentlichung der Mykenischen Kommission|(Social) Place and Space in Early Mycenaean Greece Mykenische Studien 35|
The analysis of Middle and Late Bronze Age tombs provides important insights into the emergence of theMycenaean society and its later developments. The southwestern Peloponnese (Messenia and Triphylia) in particular,with its rich mortuary landscape, is suitable for studying the changes which occurred not only at the transition from theMiddle to the Late Bronze Age but also during the Mycenaean period. The purpose of this paper is to highlight thesechanges through the architecture of the tholos tombs as well as the burial gifts
LAKONIA AND KYTHERA Space, Place and Social Structure in the North Cemetery, Ayios Vasileios. Veröffentlichung der Mykenischen Kommission|(Social) Place and Space in Early Mycenaean Greece Mykenische Studien 35|
In this paper we would like to present some first observations on changing perceptions of space and shiftingsocial relations in the site of Ayios Vasileios, Lakonia, based on the excavation and study of the early Mycenaeanextramural cemetery of the site, the North Cemetery. Our aim is to investigate how space is harnessed in the creationof new cosmological and social divisions.1. Space and Place: We will examine the location of the (extramural) cemetery in relation to the contemporary settlementand the local topography. We will attempt to understand how place is imbued with meaning by examining theprevious use of the cemetery area, the spatial organisation of the cemetery (location and orientation of graves), as wellas any evidence for human intervention and modifications of the cemetery area (removal and heaping of soil, use ofnatural gravel layers, construction of a platform, construction of retaining [?] walls).2. Social structure: On the basis of a close contextual analysis of the mortuary practices (variation in grave type, constructionand design, treatment of the body and accompanying ritual, offerings) we will reconstruct the changing socialrelations, and in particular differentiation by age, gender, kinship and status.Our observations on the North Cemetery will be placed in the context of the wider transformation of the mortuarypractices at the very beginning of the Mycenaean period, i.e. the introduction of formal cemeteries and new tomb types,the practice of reuse and secondary treatment, and the deposition of wealth. At the same time we will examine regionalparticularities and local responses
