‘In sum, the collected papers show in a very convincing and detailed way the complexity of primary food production in the context of early urbanization and the entanglement of city and countryside, even in situations in which we might tend to think that the major raison d’être of an urban configuration was trade and commerce as in the case of coastal settlements, in this volume represented by the very interesting paper on the on-going investigations at Kalamianos on the Saronic Gulf by Daniel Pullen et al. within the ambit of Mycenae and the already mentioned paper on Iron Age Lattara.’ – Peter A. J. Attema (2022): Gnomon Bd. 94, 2022
