Böcker av Catherine Morgan

Vince Franklin is narcissistic, amoral force of nature that has conquered the world's boardroom and most extreme sports in his drive to find new challenges. With his vast fortune, he undertakes a quest of a lifetime; and he literally unearths the greatest contestants of them all to play in a game of his own making.In doing so, he has allowed ancient, primordial evil to escape - a formidable foe that dashes his carefully laid plans of the most extreme sport of all. Not only does he endanger himself, he has had a group of his peers join him to fund and enjoy the end results of the project. He stops at nothing to achieve his goal - game hunting of the greatest beasts of all time.Within hours of the game's onset, despite one pseudo-success, Franklin finds himself fighting for his very survival. He is forced to confront the unthinkable: has he unleashed forces that are ultimately uncontainable? And what price does he have to pay to make them so? Has he triggered, in his arrogance and greed, the inevitable fall of mankind?

With more than eighty photographs, maps and plans, this title presents a study of Greek history, archaeology and society. It addresses the different forms of association experienced by early Iron-Age and Archaic Greeks by exploring the archaeological, literary and epigraphical records of central Greece and the northern Peloponnese.

This is a study of the origins and practices at Olympia and Delphi which challenges many assumptions about the nature and role of the archaeological data. Dr Morgan considers the economics of dedication, technology and the organization of craft production which provide insights into the behaviour of producers and purchasers of material dedicated at the sanctuaries.

Final report on the Late Bronze Age and Early Iron Age evidence (pottery, metalwork, terracottas, architecture and other constructions) from excavations conducted by the University of Chicago at the Sanctuary of Poseidon at Isthmia between 1952 and 1989.
