Descripción del Curso

A seminar on the archaeology of the house and household in Prehistoric Greece: the main architectural types of houses and their development, the place of houses in urban town planning in the Middle and Late Bronze Age, the functions of their space, and the importance of households in social evolution. Emphasis is placed on the appearance of the first “megara” (a type of long house) in relation to the first signs of social hierarchy during the Neolithic, the Minoan palaces and villas as homes to exceptional social groups and the central place of “megara” in the design of Mycenean palaces. The seminar offers a complete survey of the archaeological record, as well as of the main interpretative approaches to the social dimension of Prehistoric houses in Greece.
