Summary:

Wiersma analyses Early Helladic III, Middle Helladic and Late Helladic I domestic architecture with reference to social organization and social change. This book covers domestic architecture from the southern and central Greek mainland up to southern Thessaly. Site-specific and regional developments are explored. The results are brought together to reconstruct architectural developments during Early Helladic III, Middle Helladic I-II and Middle Helladic III-Late Helladic I. This timeframe enables us to consider how a 'simple' society eventually developed into a society that was socially differentiated. Architectural patterns and changes are highlighted and especially related to social and economic circumstances. In addition, the symbolical aspects of some architectural features are also emphasized.
