Archaic Greece (1976) describes the typical polis, and considers in turn each city-state in mainland Greece, the Aegean and the coast of Asia Minor. In detailing its history and local culture, as well as events which had great impact on the period – the reforms of Solon, the expulsion of tyrants – the book shows how each contributed to the structure of Greek society as a whole.
L.H. Jeffery was a British Classicist and archaeologist. She was a tutor in Greek history and archaeology and a lecturer in ancient history in the University of Oxford.
