The objectives of the fourth year are to provide the student with a basic training in archeology, history and other social disciplines, and to become familiar with historical-archaeological subjects that will be developed in later years. The subject has as contents the exposition of the basic features of the historical-archaeological research applied to the geographical context of the territories of population and Greek culture, both in the original Greek area (mainland Greece, Aegean islands and Anatolian western coast) as in the areas of colonial settlement (Black Sea, Italic Magna Graecia, southern France and Empordà coast). This subject also aims to show the evolution of the population and the political and social changes that took place in the Aegean to Hellenism. The contributions of instrumental methodologies and analytical techniques to the historiographical debates that the discipline has addressed will be considered. The main discoveries and points that have aroused the most controversy in the research of the different periods and territories considered will be studied. The contents include the contributions from the different areas of origin of the information and the empirical evidence (basically the archaeological record) from which the hypotheses are elaborated.
