Simon Jusseret
Geoarchaeology 25 (2010): 675-708.

Στα ίχνη των τελευταίων κυνηγών και τροφοσυλλεκτών της Νοτιοανατολικής Μεσογείου (Following the traces of the last hunter-gatherers of east Mediterranean)

Nektarios Karadimas

Κατά τη διάρκεια των πανεπιστημιακών μας χρόνων πέρασαν από τα μάτια μας χιλιάδες διαφάνειες κεραμεικής, γλυπτών ή άλλων αντικειμένων, αλλά σπανίως έως σχεδόν ποτέ δεν αντικρίσαμε σε αυτές τα πρόσωπα των αρχαιολόγων που κρύβονται πίσω από τα ευρήματα.
