'This is an important volume that corrects several assumptions about colonisation and the use of Greek pottery in the Mediterranean and a powerful statement of a 'Mediterraneanisation process' (I. Morris) that will also extent to other aspects of material culture such as textiles, ivories and the like.' Anselm C. Hagedorn, Journal for the Study of the Old Testament
