The settlements made by Greeks in archaic Italy have largely been seen in terms of colonies duplicated from, and heavily dependent on, mainland Greece. The scarcity of the literary sources for this period makes the archaeological record crucial.

This is a collection of eight essays on the archaeology of Greek colonization, dedicated to Sir John Boardman on the occasion of his retirement. Greek colonization continues to be a much debated topic among ancient historians and archaeologists of the Mediterranean region. These essays focus on archaeological research, but they consider themes relevant to archaeologists and historians alike, including: the motivation for colonisation, identity and social integration; technology and trade; collaboration, competition and conflict.
