A hill dominating the Nemea Valley, Tsoungiza is located only 10 kilometers northwest of the citadel of Mycenae. Excavations there have uncovered the remains of a Late Helladic settlement that stood at its southern end. This volume presents the results of these investigations with an unprecedented study of a small settlement's economy and society in the Mycenaean period. Through an interdisciplinary approach that incorporates a wide variety of general and specialist studies, the authors demonstrate how agricultural production, craft activities, and ceremonial practices integrated the inhabitants of Tsoungiza into a regional exchange system within the Bronze Age world. The volume includes contributions by P. Acheson, S. E. Allen, K. M. Forste, P. Halstead, S. M. A. Hoffmann, A.&nbsp;Karabatsoli, K. Kaza-Papageorgiou, B. Lis, R. Mersereau, H. Mommsen, J. B. Rutter, T. Theodoropoulou, and J. E.&nbsp;Tomlinson.

Thirteen-year-old Jennifer Nicole McGillicuddy, nicknamed Sweet Pickles, lives in the small riverside town of Anglers Cove, North Carolina-a place where most folks would assume not much ever happens. Or does it? With a natural curiosity and a talent for solving things, Sweet Pickles searches for mysteries in her sleepy little town. High on her list is the Beethoven Castle, an abandoned 1800s mansion rumored to be haunted, according to some of the townspeople who swear they've heard strange and eerie organ music coming from it around Halloween every year. She's determined to one day muster up the courage and find a way into the mansion to try and figure out who or what is behind the ghostly music. Just when she thinks that that's the only mystery in town, she learns that Thomas, one of her best friends, is being suspected of a crime she is certain he didn't commit. Along with her other bestie Deardra and their canine sidekicks, Buster and Tuck, she sets out to solve the mystery behind the unusual crime and to clear Thomas's name. Follow along with Sweet Pickles and her friends through the twists and turns as they unravel the clues in this fun-filled adventure in mystery solving.
