The Ancient Theatre at Kalydon in Aitolia

Om bogen

The theatre at Kalydon in Aitolia – known only since a few decades – has already attracted a lot of attention due to its square orchestra and rectilinear benches for seating. The Danish-Greek collaborative project responsible for investigating the theatre presents in this two-volume publication results of the excavation and documentation, including all finds such as tile, pottery, metals and coins, made during the excavations. The traditional analysis of the building is supplemented by an archaeoacoustic analysis comparing acoustic advantages and disadvantages between the square and semicircular design.

"The volume on the theatre of Kalydon is the excellent result of several years of research. The monument has been thoroughly studied in its various architectural-historical aspects. This publication edited by Rune Frederiksen and Olympia Vikatou represents an invaluable point of reference in the study of Greek theatres, especially the oldest ones."
