Zeitschrift zur Archäologie Europas
Journal on the Archaeology of Europe
The aim of this article is to add people to the question of mobility, with a case study in central Macedonia. The traveller, on whose shoulders the long distance connections that network theory and world-systems analysis deal with were carried out, is introduced as an analytical category to add an additional perspective to discussions on mobility. By setting the scale of study at a regional level, encounters and their impacts on people and material culture may both be studied. Both long-distance and short-distance networks are taken into account. The result is an outline of a multi-ethnic trading society which may inspire studies of other sites on routes of communication in the Bronze Age.
Keywords: Central Macedonia, Bronze Age, mobility, travellers, multi-ethnicity
