This is the third volume of a periodical that is published every
two years on the archaeological activities of the Danish Institute
at Athens, and contains articles by scholars in the fields of Greek
archaeology, history, philology and literature. This volume reports
on prehistoric Tummuli at Portes in Achaea, early Minoan Clay
Strips and a sealing at Psathi, an early Etruscan Bronze Throne in
Olympia, the Utopia of Xenophon, Cultic theatres and ritual drama
in Ancient Greece, Greek theatre building in late classical and
Hellenistic times, the gardens and marginal lands of classical
Attica, the foundation of Nea Paphos, all in English, and, in
French, La collone du Dodekatheon a Delos (Reconstruction of the
columns of the Temple of Twelve Gods on the island of Delos). The
section on Greek-Danish Excavations in Aetolian Chalkis 1997-98
contains articles on the excavations on the hill of Haghia Triadha,
geological investigations of the area, coins and roof tiles found
there and the registration process of finds. Other articles discuss
the final Neolithic pottery from the excavation at Pangali on the
eastern slope of Mt. Varassova, in 1996 and the recent rescue
excavation of the cemetary of Ancient Chalkis.
This collection of outstanding essays gives an in-depth look at the
role of meals in creating a sense of family and community in the
Mediterranean world in the Hellenistic and Roman periods. By
looking at the dining habits of Greeks and Romans, Jews and
Christians, Essenes and Therapeutes, an international cadre of
scholars provides insight into how social mores and etiquette were
passed on to children, how family life increased in importance for
Christians, the conflict in styles when Greeks and Romans met, and
how meals attained and sustained religious significance. Other
topics include funerary banquets; the etiquette of a formal dinner;
the position of women at meals; royal feasts; the development of
the Eucharist as a separate ritual; the architecture of the Greek
andron and the Roman triclinium, early synagogues and temples; the
diets of each culture. A separate chapter discusses the provision
of food for the hungry and the public ownership of the sea, salt
and fish.
