Stone vessels of the Cyclades in the early Bronze Age

Author:Pat Getz-Gentle

Summary:With the exception of early Egypt and Minoan Crete, no early culture had such a vigorous stone vase-making industry as the Cyclades. Stone Vessels of the Cyclades in the Early Bronze Age is the first comprehensive study of these vessels. For each vessel type, Pat Getz-Gentle considers the material used, the size range, and the formal characteristics and the extent of their variation. She also discusses manufacturing methods, the incidence of repairs occasioned by accidental change, and the possible function or functions, as well as the development, frequency, dating, and distribution of each vessel type within the Cyclades and beyond
