Welcome to books-on-e-bay. We are offering an interesting selection of used, rare, and out-of-print books. While our selection is diverse, our books are based on: competitive pricing, accurate descriptions, thorough packing, and prompt delivery.
We also have a number of high quality, large photographs of historical pieces. Originally made as part of a set for the British Museum, they also have a simplistic explanation on the rear. They are brand new, measure 30 by 21cm and will be well protected during delivery by an A4 board backed envelope.
Woman of Cyclades
2900-2400 BC

During the early part of the Greek Bronze Age, the people of the
Aegean islands known as the Cyclades began to produce items made
from copper, silver, lead and the fine white marble of the area.
They depended on farming and fishing, but increasingly travelled by
boat between the islands and further afield.
Objects on display in Room 11 include marble vessels and the
well-known Cycladic stylised figurines. Later decorative fragments
from a tomb at Mycenae known as the Treasury of Atreus are located
outside the gallery.
