It would not be an exaggeration to say that the figures, characters, stories, and diverse events of Greek mythology essentially constitute the most significant testimony to the evolution of the history of the ancient Greeks through the centuries. Moreover, a large number of contemporary scientists advocate - and now prove through their research - that Greek "myths" are veiled historical truths from very distant times, and even go so far as to reveal secrets of the universe and the creation of the world. Thus, Dimitrios Katselis very accurately characterizes this part of Greek historical past as Prehistory and not "mythology," which forms the foundation upon which Greek Civilization as a whole was built.
Dimitrios Katselis' "Dictionary of Greek Prehistory" is an essential tool for researchers, students, educators, and every Greek who wants to have in their library a book-source of all the figures and their histories of Greek Prehistory.
