Les minerais, le marbre et le vin. Aux sources de la pospérité thasienne (2012) (original) (raw)

2011, Revue des Études grecques 124

Assessment of thirty years of researches in the thasian chôra and of studies on the main resources of the city of Thassos. The textual, epigraphic and literary sources, henceforth combined with the new revealed archaeological evidence, characterize an economy based on three main sectors: metals, marble and wine. At different moments of its history, Thassos pulled from these the greatest part of her income, even if the modalities of her control remains mostly unknown.
