About this book

This volume fills a gap in current research on the Hellenistic Peloponnese, complementing and challenging traditional interpretations by adopting new perspectives on its complex social and political history. The resurgence of interest in the Hellenistic period brings the Peloponnese to the front in response to emerging trends in research. By examining aspects of the region's interstate relations, contemporary politics, and modes of representation, this volume explores current research on the region, creating a much more well-rounded picture of the Hellenistic Peloponnese and a rich basis for invigorating scholarly debate and inspiring further research. The chapters adopt interdisciplinary approaches, analysing a wide array of ancient evidence and material culture. As a result, the volume offers a renewed understanding of how socio-political transformations unfolded within the region. The contributors illuminate critical agents of the period, their interactions, material evidence, and political history both in and beyond the Peloponnese: from the Macedonian influence over the region since the 3rd century BCE and the rise of the Achaian Koinon to strategies of identity construction and memory politics wielded by local elites, and their manifestation in the material evidence. This volume will be a crucial reference point for graduate students and scholars interested in the region.
