Household and city organization at Olynthus

Olynthus, one of the best-preserved ancient Greek cities, was excavated in the 1920s and 1930s, revealing more than a hundred houses and their exceptionally complete contents.

In this copiously illustrated book, Nicholas Cahill analyzes this archaeological information and provides important new insights into the daily lives of the ancient Greeks, the organization of their public and domestic space, and the economic and social patterns in Olynthus.
