"Die Studie ist in vielen Einzelbeobachtungen sehr wertvoll. Ohne ihren prosopographischen Anhang wird künftig keine Untersuchung mehr auskommen, die sich Personen aus Pylos widmet." - Marko Müller, in: sehepunkte 14 (2014), Nr. 2 (15.02.2014)
"Nakassis presents a largely persuasive argument for a near one-name, one-individual identification and for the operation of individuals in multiple locales. Moreover, his collection of multi-tablet dossiers for individuals allows the cross-referencing of a broader elite, with previously unrecognized responsibilities and spheres of operation. His index collecting all data on named individuals and their degree of prosopographical certainty opens new avenues for the analysis of previously explored topics, such as production and administration, and it provides a way to explore topics previously inaccessible to scholarship, perhaps most importantly the vital topic of kinship relations – arguably our largest remaining gap in Mycenaean studies. Highly recommended." - Barbara Olson, in: Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2015.02.45
