The texts of the inscriptions, many of which are fragmentary and relatively unknown, are accompanied by an English translation and also two commentaries; one focused on epigraphical and linguistic issues, and the other, requiring no knowledge of Greek, focused on legal and historical issues.The texts are preceded by a substantial introduction, which surveys the geography, history, writing habits, social and political structure, economy, religion, and law of Crete in this period.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51669339210016,"sku":"NEW0199204829","price":334.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61fp6IsKsDL.jpg?v=1779046745","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-laws-of-ancient-crete-c650-400-bce-0199204829","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
