Asine 3. Supplementary studies in the Swedish excavations 1922–1930 Fasc. 1. Supplementary studies in the Swedish excavations 1922–1930 Edited by Robin Hägg, Gullög C. Nordquist & Berit Wells Published by the Swedish Institute at Athens. Distributed by Astrom Editions. This is a collection of eleven papers inaugurating a new series of supplementary studies on the material from the old Swedish excavations at Asine. The first is a summary of the work undertaken between 1922 and 1930 and is intended to help in the study of the published reports and of the unpublished documentation.

A group of Mycenaean vases from the village of Zafer Aga is published for the first time. Another paper deals with the animal bones from the Lower town of Asine. Finally, a concordance of the numbers of the graves and skeletons found at Asine is given as a tool for scholars who wish to work…
