"Aegean" is a geographical term referrring to that part of the Mediterranean Sea between modern Greece and Turkey, including the Cycladic Islands and the large island of Crete. Among scholars the word Aegean has taken on chronological dimensions, designating the archaeological cultures of the prehistoric period (i.e., Stone and Bronze Ages, until ca. 1000 BC) in that region. The best documented Aegean archaeological cultures are the Minoans in Crete and the Mycenaeans in mainland Greece, both dating to the middle centuries of the second millennium BC.

The bibliography below offers a selection of titles relevant to many of the key research questions pursued by archaeologists working in the Aegean. This bibliography is in no way a comprensive survey of that research, inasmuch as it includes very few primary excavation reports and deals only with works in English; nonetheless, it should serve as a useful introduction to the scholarship for students of Aegean archaeology.
