    abstract = "This chapter explores the active participation of the southeastern Aegean within the exchange networks that connected the Aegean and the eastern Mediterranean during the Late Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age (EIA) alike. During the 8th and 7th centuries, there is an increase in the number of sites identified on both Rhodes and Kos. Three important characteristics are attested in both the LH III and the EIA in the Dodecanese. The first is the regionalism that can be identified through the burial traditions and practices within the southeastern Aegean. The second is the connection with the past, seen to be active even in the EIA, despite the new socioeconomic conditions, and involving the continuity of cremation and most importantly the (re)invention of tradition. The third characteristic is the participation of this region in the exchange networks within the Aegean and with the eastern Mediterranean, primarily with Cyprus and secondarily with the Levant. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
