"Hans Wunderlich is a geologist who happened to be in Crete in 1970, when he took the opportunity of visiting Sir Arthur Evan's celebrated reconstruction of the so-called Palace of King Minos at Knossos - the legendary labyrinth where Theseus once defeated the dreaded Minotaur. This chance visit drew him into one of the greatest archaeological mysteries of all time, for one contradiction struck him after another in the 'established' interpretations of the Minoan culture. His geologist's eye found clues that the early archaeologists had missed, the technical man asked questions to which no-one seemed to have the answer. He soon concluded that what he was gazing at was not a palace at all, but something more sombre and perhaps even more significant. This book is the author's attempt to resolve the paradoxes that have obsessed the archaeological world ever since Evan's spectacular find." An interesting theory ."that the Palace of King Minos was not the bustling centre of gay courtly life but was, instead, a necropolis - a city of the dead" English translation by Richard Windsor. 368p. illus. diagrs. maps. bibliography. index.

I have utilized all the knowledge at our disposal in the social religious or economic field ...in an effort to understand .. those far off ancestors of ours to whom we owe Homeric Poetry, the Linear B tablets and Mycenean art" This is a synthesis of the archaeological remains of three Bronze age locations in Greece together with the mythical/historical/ poetical legends associated with them and how Crete, Mycenae and Thebes, might be related to each other. Laid in is a tri-fold sheet with proposed genealogies and chronologies of these sites.Also included is an appendix regarding the decipherment of Linear B. 148p.plates notes, index [ Errata sheet laid in ] Book
"The author, a noted geoarchaeologist who has done extensive investigative fieldwork in landscapes of Bronze Age Greece and has recently excavated at Tiryns, goes to the source of the Atlantis legend, two of Plato's dialogs. Zangger examines these accounts in great detail, accepts them as historically based, and presents evidence for identifying Bronze Age Troy as the most likely site of "Atlantis" 256p. illus. maps. bibliography .index Book
