Endnote 1 – Small Inventions? They Changed How People Lived in the Hellenistic Age

See, for example, John Onians, Art and Thought in the Hellenistic Age: The Greek World View, 350–50 B.C. (London, 1979), which has a good bibliography; M. Rostovtzeff, Social and Economic History of the Hellenistic World, 3 vols. (Oxford: Oxford Univ. Press, 1952); Helmut Wilsdorf, “Technische Neuerungen in der Phase des Hiederganges der Polis,” in Hellenische Poleis Krise—Wandlung-Wirkung, 4 vols., ed. Elisabeth Charlot Welskop (Berlin, 1974).
