Description
Book SynopsisThis volume complements Lerna V: The Neolithic Pottery of Lerna, by K. D. Vitelli, and completes the primary publication of the results of the Neolithic remains retrieved during the excavations conducted by the American School of Classical Studies at Athens from 1952 through 1958 at Lerna in the Argolid.
Trade ReviewElizabeth C. Banks, having taken on the burdensome task of organising and publishing material from an old but emblematic excavation, has done so with competence and a welcome directness. This handsomely produced book is an invaluable contribution to the history of the porrly known Neolithic of southern Greece.

"This volume, with the detailed description of architecture and finds, is a contribution to the Neolithic in the Peloponnese and the whole of Greece and a worthy addition to the high-end Lerna series."
Kostas Kotsakis,
Journal of Greek Archaeology 1 (2016), pp. 403-405.
"This long-overdue volume is essential for placing the finds from Lerna in their proper stratigraphical context and for the publication of the architectural remains. Lerna is now the best documented open-air settlement in the Peloponnese. This book is an essential volume for those working on the Neolithic period in Greece."
