This volume presents a chronological survey of the art of the Aegean, with b&w and some color photos of the works of art and buildings discussed. The material is accessible to the undergraduates beginning their study of art history and archaeology, but it's also thorough in its presentation. Each chapter concludes with a bibliography. Betancourt's (art history, archaeology, Temple U., Philadelphia, Penn.) archaeological research is concentrated on Crete, once the center of Minoan civilization.
