Our Cups Are Full: Pottery and Society in the Aegean Bronze Age

Colleagues and former students of American archaeologist Rutter present 38 papers on the era he has studied most thoroughly. The topics include minding the gaps in early Helladic Laconia, the Cypriot ceramic cargo of the Uluburun shipwreck, impressed pithoi from Late Bronze and Early Iron Age East Lokris and Phokis and their socio-economic significance, a unique Late Minoan III ring-shaped vase from the Myrsini Aspropilia Cemetery, and the role of terracotta throne models in disseminating Mycenaean religious ideology.
