Books in the Praehistorica Mediterranea series

This book aims to identify methodological problems associated with the digital management of archaeological data and to introduce viable solutions that embrace interpretative aspects and the reliability concept. A prototype system is presented, managing small finds data from early 20th century excavations at Phaistos and Ayia Triada.

Collet brings a new approach to the study of the Phaistos Disc, one of the most studied documents of the Minoan civilization. It's not a deciphering but an interpretation, a depiction of the Minoan Weltanschauung through the symbols on the Disc and their connections with reality.
