Graffiti in the Athenian Agora - Agora Picture Book
Mabel Lang
Like fragments of overheard conversations, the thousands of informal inscriptions scratched and painted on potsherds, tiles, and other objects give us a unique insight into the everyday life of the Athenian Agora. The author suggests why these scraps of sentences were written, and what they tell us about one of the first widely literate societies.
