Tradition, modernity and European hegemony in the Mediterranean (2002)
Journal Article
Argyrou, V. (2002). Tradition, modernity and European hegemony in the Mediterranean. Journal of Mediterranean studies, 12(1), 23-42

This paper argues that tradition and modernity, invented in European societies with an eye both on the European past and the non-European present, are ontological categories which structure the way we think about the world. This means that the world... Read More about Tradition, modernity and European hegemony in the Mediterranean.

Current understanding of archaeological sites often relies upon plans compiled before the advent of modern archaeological techniques. Such plans were often created with a specific purpose in mind that might be less helpful for modern study. In this p...
