Reconstructing a Maritime Past

Beschreibung

This book argues that rather than applying geo-ethnic labels to shipwrecks to describe â Greekâ or â Romanâ seafaring, a more intriguing alternative emphasizes a maritime cultureâ s valorization of the Mediterranean Sea. Doing so creates new questions and research agendas to understand the past human relationship with the sea.
