More about the book
Focusing on the historical interactions between Crete and the Cycladic islands during the Minoan peak, this book challenges traditional views on cultural assimilation. Through an in-depth analysis of pottery from significant archaeological sites, it argues that island communities actively shaped their identities and responses to external influences. The work emphasizes that social constructs, rather than fixed geographical or ecological factors, determined the openness or closure of these societies to outside interactions.
