Book excerpt: "Sturt Manning's The Absolute Chronology of the Aegean Early Bronze Age seeks to establish a precise and accurate absolute (i.e. calendar) chronological framework for the southern Aegean region during the Early Bronze Age, and summarizes the complex archaeological evidence for the period and its external relations." "For the first time, sophisticated statistical studies of the available radiocarbon and thermoluminescence dates from the Aegean and related areas are presented in detail, and illustrated by the extensive use of graphics." "This important volume will be useful for anyone studying Aegean and East Mediterranean chronology for its own sake, and for archaeologists and prehistorians working in these areas who wish to use a diachronic framework in categorizing relation, culture-historical, or other studies."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
