Edited by John Rich and Graham Shipley, this scholarly collection explores the relationship between warfare and society in the Greek world from the Homeric period through to the Hellenistic age. Bringing together contributions from leading classical historians and archaeologists, the essays examine topics including warfare, politics, religion, agriculture, slavery, naval power and the social consequences of conflict. Combining literary, archaeological and historical evidence, the volume offers an authoritative assessment of the role of war in shaping the ancient Greek world and remains an important reference for students and researchers of classical history.
