Who are reputable historians who study ancient Greece?

Upvote:4

And if you can sacrifice some credibility for entertainment, Herodotus.

Also, not historians but I really recommend reading Homer, Hesiod, Aeschylus, Sophocles and Euripides to get a grasp of their world.

Modern historians specialized in Ancient Greece I've only read Donald Kagan and Luciano Canfora.

EDIT:

Wikipedia Category Scholars of ancient Greek history has 43 names of modern historians in it.
