Renfrew: Problems in the general correlation of archaeological and linguistic strata in prehistoric Greece: the model of autochthonos origin.  In: Crossland & Birchall, Bronze Age Migrations in the Aegean, Park Ridge 1974.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>In the same book there is an article by Georgiev with a different view:</DIV> <DIV>The Arrival of the Greeks in Greece: the linguistic evidence. (with an interesting discussion behind it that shows Georgiev's ideas were not very popular...)</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>You certainly know the 'famous' article by Haley and Blegen: The Coming of the Greeks, in AJA, 32, 1928, dealing with the distribution of prehistoric place names around the Aegean,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>and may be Palmers 'Mycenaeans and Minoans', with a long chapter on 'The Coming of the Greeks', (and Luwians before them), London 1965, will not disappoint you as much.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Although those references are not new, they will give you an idea of 20th century studies concerned with the subject you are thinking about. And there are lots of other books, too, don't give up!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Best wishes from Crete</DIV> <DIV>Sabine</DIV></BODY></HTML>
