The chapters adopt interdisciplinary approaches, analysing a wide array of ancient evidence and material culture. As a result, the volume offers a renewed understanding of how socio-political transformations unfolded within the region. The contributors illuminate critical agents of the period, their interactions, material evidence, and political history both in and beyond the Peloponnese: from the Macedonian influence over the region since the 3rd century BCE and the rise of the Achaian Koinon to strategies of identity construction and memory politics wielded by local elites, and their manifestation in the material evidence. This volume will be a crucial reference point for graduate students and scholars interested in the region.
