Figurine-making in the Neolithic Aegean

Bag om Figurine-making in the Neolithic Aegean

This volume presents a cutting-edge perspective on figurine studies in the Neolithic Aegean, sparking renewed interest and innovative ideas. It celebrates two significant milestones in the field: the 50th anniversary of Giorgos Hourmouziadis¿ Ph.D. thesis (submitted in 1973 and published in 1974) and the 30th anniversary of Lauren Talalay¿s Ph.D. thesis (submitted in 1983 and published in 1993). Central to this work are three key questions: What advancements have been made since these seminal publications? Where do we stand now? And what future directions should we explore? A group of esteemed scholars addresses these questions through detailed case studies, presenting fresh material and ideas within a robust contextual framework. This book showcases a rich diversity of methods and results, underscoring that figurines were not uniformly made, understood, or used across different times and places. By advocating for the creation of varied narratives at both macro and micro levels, we highlight the complexity and richness of figurine studies. We hope this volume will serve as a cornerstone for ongoing and future discussions in the field.
