PUBLICATIONS
ΕΒΟΟΚ
The printed version counting approximately 400 pages includes 19 original essays written by leading experts on the region, the battle and the periods covered by the Exhibition, accompanied by rich and often unpublished photographic material. The essays are written in Greek and English.
The Museum innovates as this volume is also published in the form of an e-book in which, in addition to the 19 essays, two Appendices are included: one with the English translation of the excavation diaries of Panagiotis Stamatakis and a second with the transcription of letters and reports by Georgios Sotiriadis.
The catalogue is not only addressed to the academic community, since it analyses in an accessible way the circumstances of the battle, the monuments that accompany it, but also the perspectives that it opens in the extended Hellenistic world. Finally, the reception of the battle by the modern Greek state is examined in detail, as is the role of archaeologists in the reception and perception of the battle.

EXHIBITION CATALOGUE (PRINTED)
The catalogue presents the battle of Chaeronea, the one that pitted the Macedonians against the allied Hellenic cities and emphasizes its importance in shaping the new Hellenistic world.
It consists of 453 pages and includes all the objects of the exhibition per section, with detailed explanatory texts in Greek and English and rich photographic material.
Through the texts of the curators, as well as some of the leading scholars in the field, an attempt is made to highlight the specific battle as the event that finally brought the Macedonians to the position of the dominant power, decisively influencing the entire ancient world.
