"This volume brings together scholars of Mediterranean archaeology, ancient history,
and complexity science to advance theoretical approaches and analytical tools for
studying maritime connectivity. For the coast-hugging populations of the ancient Mediterranean,
mobility and exchange depended on a distinct environment and technological parameters
that created diverse challenges and opportunities, making the modeling of maritime
interaction a paramount concern for understanding cultural interaction more generally.
Network-inspired metaphors have long been employed in discussions of this interaction,
but increasing theoretical sophistication and advances in formal network analysis
now offer opportunities to refine and test the dominant paradigm of connectivity.
Extending from prehistory into the Byzantine period, the case studies here reveal
the potential of such network approaches. Collectively they explore the social, economic,
religious, and political structures that guided Mediterranean interaction across maritime
space"
