Fresh from the printing press.

The figure of a cow and the stylized human figure on the front cover are one half of the decoration of a large ceramic vessel from the Eneolithic (the 5th millennium).
The other half (on the back cover) consists of a similar figure of a bull and another similar human figure.
The vessel was found during archaeological excavations led by Petya Georgieva at the Kozareva Mogila settlement mound near the west Black Sea coast (north of Burgas, Bulgaria).

This volume was compiled entirely by the good will efforts of Petya’s former and present doctoral students.
