Ports of Trade, Al Mina and Geometric Greek Pottery in the Levant (Bar International Series)
Joanna Luke
The site of Al Mina on the Levantine coast has been characterised in many different ways but, in this study, Joanna Luke reveals its true identity as a thriving `port of trade'. She focuses in particular on the finds of Greek Geometric pottery found at the site, evidence which, in the past, has been used to suggest Al Mina was a Greek colony. Luke characterises the site as the type of port founded and controlled by the hinterland, and one which dealt in Greek finewares as one of its trade commodities.
