Description

Minor rubbing to wraps with a bit of colour loss. Rear wrap yellowed. Scholar's name to ffep (Jenifer Neils). ; 388 pages; When it first appeared in 1962, The Palaces of Crete radically modified the conception of the palace of King Minos and of other Minoan palaces, villas, and houses of the late Bronze age. A standard text since its publication, the work has now been significantly revises, especially as regards the Palace at Zakros and the West Annex (unexplored mansion) at Knossos. Thirteen new illustrations have been added. Prefaced with an account of the island's geography, history, and culture in antiquity, the book is not only invaluable for the student but for the tourist looking for a guide to the sites. ---
