A rough and rocky place : the landscape and settlement history of the Methana Peninsula, Greece : results of the Methana Survey Project, sponsored by the British School at Athens and the University of Liverpool

Authors:C. Mee, Hamish Alexander Forbes, M. P. Atherton, Methana Survey Project

The uncompromising nature of the landscape of the Methana Peninsula in Greece, and its overall isolation, have been dominating factors in the peninsula's history. This is a report of major fieldwork undertaken following a brief reconnaissance in the summer of 1981. A more detailed exploratory study was made a year later, and it soon became obvious that the settlement history of the peninsula was more complex than it had been thought to be, when a number of unrecorded sites were discovered. It also became clear that most previous reports had discussed known sites solely or primarily in terms of their architectural remains, and that the peninsula's settlement history would not be comprehensible without systematic study. A survey strategy was developed and a full field-survey season on Methana was undertaken with two teams in 1984, followed by further seasons in each of the next three years. This is the report of the archaeological survey project. There is a description of the physical environment of Methana and of the survey methodology. Chapters examine the settlement history of the peninsula in the Prehistoric, Early Iron Age-Archaic, Classical Hellenistic, Roman, Later Roman, Medieval, and the Turkish-Modern periods. The sites and churches are described in detail in the two catalogues, while appendices list the agricultural equipment, inscriptions, coins, and artefacts
