With the experiences of "fighting" archaeology at the Archaeological Service of Eastern Macedonia and twelve years of university teaching, Dr. Stratēs Papadopoulos offers in Greek an important information tool aimed at the archaeological community at various stages of its approach to archaeological knowledge, from undergraduate archaeological studies to the specialized reflection of advanced researchers in prehistoric archaeology. Given the absence of synthetic studies on the organization of space, settlement, and architecture in the Aegean and Continental Greece during the Neolithic and Early Bronze Age, the book is particularly welcome by the archaeological community. In addition to the settlement structure, significant information is provided in the publication on the management of natural resources, diet, technology, economic and social organization, as well as the ideology of Neolithic communities in the Aegean. The author presents comprehensive and detailed information on these areas, and the reader gains a complete picture not only of the immovable but also of the movable monuments, the whole, that is, of the archaeological material, its context, and its interpretation.
