This booklet illustrates the archaeological, documentary, and pictorial evidence for such diverse trades as shoe-making, fishmongering, weaving, and the manufacture of luxury goods and perfumes. Shopping was just one aspect of this public space: ancient Athenians would also have received medical treatment, been married and buried, made sacrifices, and received education in the Agora. The material remains from all of these activities are also discussed. Vivid illustrations and useful resources, such as a table of prices and coinage, bring the bustling marketplace to life.","","","AgoraPicBk 12 (1971)","1971","","","Burr Thompson, D.","An Ancient Shopping Center: The Athenian Agora","Agora:Image:2009.09.0015::/Agora/2009/2009.09/2009.09.0015.jpg::200::314","Agora","Agora:Publication:Agora Picture Book 12"
