The contribution examines the archaeological evidence, ranging from the subgeometric period to the archaic age, related to the main sites of Lemnos, with the aim of demonstrating that the Athenian construction of the marginality of Lemnos can be deconstructed, on an archaeological basis. During the Archaic period, in fact, Lemnos was at the center of complex socio-economic and cultural networks in the northern Aegean, which allow it to be identified as an “interface” between Thrace, the Aegean and Anatolia and, ultimately, to be recognized as a “frontier island”.

Abstract

The contribution examines the archaeological evidence, ranging from the subgeometric period to the archaic age, related to the main sites of Lemnos, with the aim of demonstrating that the Athenian construction of the marginality of Lemnos can be deconstructed, on an archaeological basis. During the Archaic period, in fact, Lemnos was at the center of complex socio-economic and cultural networks in the northern Aegean, which allow it to be identified as an “interface” between Thrace, the Aegean and Anatolia and, ultimately, to be recognized as a “frontier island”.
