The south-eastern tip of continental Europe was a major focus of
creative energy in the second half of the first millennium BC. As
the bridgehead between Europe, Asia, and the Mediterranean, the
lands that corresponded to northern Greece, Bulgaria, and the
European parts of Turkey became a focus of interest for a variety
of external powers keen to benefit from this region's burgeoning
wealth. While the ancient kingdoms of Macedon and Thrace were
thought of as fringe areas of the Mediterranean, they became rich
and successful, partly by exploiting the region's mineral wealth
and timber and from the effective herding of livestock. In economic
terms, these land-based states were strongly connected to the
maritime powers of central and southern Greece and with areas far
beyond the Aegean. Using the most up-to-date methods and theories
about ancient economies, Archibald explores the cultural and
economic dynamics of a region that continues to reveal unexpected
dimensions of Classical antiquity.
