About this book
Clothing worn in ancient Greek lands, from the pre-Hellenic people of Crete and Mycenae to the Hellenistic age, is described in this study by Ethel B. Abrahams. She treats Homeric dress next, then the Doric and Ionic styles of classical Greece, and notes the chlamys and petasos as likely northern borrowings. A section on the toilet was added when her University of London thesis was revised for the press. Illustrations come mainly from sculpture and vase paintings. John Murray, London, 1908.
