contents Phrourion: History and Archaeology of a Word Viviana Lo Monaco Historia Phrourion Agency of words Ancient Mediterranean Historical and archaeological literature in many cases have named phrouria the ancient Sikel and Sikan towns, which were in contact with the apoikoi from the end of the 8th century B.C. But what is the meaning that the researchers attribute to this word? Is it possible that, in choosing this definition, the interpretations of the dynamics of contact were inevitably filtered through a Hellenocentric view? The purpose of this paper is to analyze different forms in which the noun “phrourion” has been and is still used in scientific production, from ancient textual sources to archaeological literature. It is an invitation to reflect on the agency of words in scientific discourse and to what extent we, scholars of Antiquity, are influenced by the vocabulary of Greek “colonialism” when interpreting material culture and societies from the past. 2020 artículo científico 0101-9074 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=221070029014 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2210/221070029014/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2210/221070029014/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2210/221070029014/221070029014.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/2210/221070029014/movil 10.1590/1980-4369e2020015 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2210 História (São Paulo) application/pdf Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho História (São Paulo) (Brasil) Vol.39
