Book excerpt: Drawing on a variety of sources of evidence and over-coming many difficulties with the data, this study provides a good factual account of the Late Iron Age in North-West Thrace. It is at this time that the Thracian tribes reached the peak of their cultural development and Nikola Theodossiev assesses the major events and achievements of this period.

The evidence is collated and interpreted, frequently with statistical analysis, and is well presented.

Download or read book Ancient Thrace and the Classical World written by Jeffrey Spier and published by Getty Publications. This book was released on 2024-11-26 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A captivating examination of the profound impact Thracian art and culture had on the Greeks and the entire northern Aegean region. The Thracians—a collection of tribal peoples who inhabited territories north of ancient Greece, an area that comprises present-day Bulgaria, much of Romania, and parts of Greece and Turkey—were renowned for their skill as warriors and horsemen, as well as for their wealth in precious metals. Thracians left few written records, and knowledge of their history and customs has long been dependent on brief accounts from ancient Greek authors. They appeared in Greek myth as formidable adversaries in the Trojan War, cruel kings, and followers of the ecstatic god Dionysos. Spectacular archaeological discoveries made in Thracian lands during modern times, however, have provided firsthand evidence of this remarkable culture, illuminating Thrace’s interactions with Greece, Persia, and Rome. Ancient Thrace and the Classical World reproduces more than two hundred glorious objects dating from the end of the Bronze Age, around 1200 BC, to the end of the first century AD, when Thrace became part of the Roman Empire. Experts explore topics such as Thracian royal tombs, the Greek colonization of the Black Sea coast, Thracian religion, and more, placing Thracian culture in a broader historical context that highlights its complex relationships with the surrounding region.
