Matthew Harpster

Reconstructing a Maritime Past (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

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