AB - The establishment of archaeology as a modern western discipline occurred in close association with the development of the European nation states and the spread of nationalism. In particular, archaeology played a key role in the formation of national identity. The current paper considers the case of Greek archaeology, which faced the task of recovering national pride and laying down the foundations of a new modern nation upon liberation from the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Therefore, the issue of the relationship between the modern nation state, nationalism, and archaeology is first examined, followed by a detailed survey of the process by which Greek archaeology came to be established and how it subsequently developed. The relationship between the state, nationalism, and archaeology, however, is apt to be problematic, as is observed through the case study on the debate surrounding Macedonia and the Vergina Star. It is believed that the case studies and issues relevant to Greek archaeology addressed in this paper will also provide insights for the practice of archaeology in Korea and indeed East Asia.
