This is a completely new approach to the history of Greece during
the early Middle Ages. This book is the first comprehensive
treatment of the economic and social history of Greece during the
early Middle Ages. From the collapse of the urban economy in the
early 7th century to the beginning of prosperity during the first
half of the 11th century, it examines the crucial transformations
taking place in Greece during the 'Dark Ages' and the Middle
Byzantine period. Bringing together archaeological and historical
research of early medieval Greece, Curta offers a completely new
dimension in the history of the region, which has never been
considered in its totality and is still relatively unknown. Modern
boundaries and nationalist preconception regarding ethnic identity
have long hindered an adequate study of early medieval Greece. By
contrast, the wide-ranging approach adopted here highlights the
similarities and differences in the archaeological evidence
associated with different social and ethnic groups, whose
identities were much more fluid than previously imagined.
