This comprehensive volume presents the outcomes of a survey and excavation conducted at Leska, a second peak sanctuary on the island of Minoan Kythera. It provides an introduction to the archaeological background of Kythera, including a discussion on peak sanctuaries both on the island and in Minoan Crete. The discovery of Leska and the research conducted there are detailed, along with an analysis of the material remains found at the site, including pottery, figurines, stone vessels, stone tools, and jewelry.
In-depth discussions explore the active role and significance of the landscape and cultic practices during the Middle Minoan IB to Late Minoan IB phase, shedding light on the links between society and cult. The broader analysis of the sacred landscape on Kythera offers a unique perspective on Aegean religion during the Minoan period beyond Crete.
The findings presented in this volume contribute to our understanding of the religious and cultural practices of the Minoan civilization and provide valuable insights into the broader context of Aegean religion during this period.
