Beskrivning
An interdisciplinary consideration of how eastern Mediterranean cultures in the first millennium BCE were meaningfully connected.  The early first millennium BCE marks one of the most culturally diverse periods in the history of the eastern Mediterranean. Surveying the region from Greece to Iraq, one finds a host of cultures and political formations, all distinct, yet all visibly connected in meaningful ways. These include the early polities of Geometric period Greece, the Phrygian kingdom of central Anatolia, the Syro-Anatolian city-states, the seafaring Phoenicians and the biblical Israelites of the southern Levant, Egypt’s Twenty-first through Twenty-fifth Dynasties, the Urartian kingdom of the eastern Anatolian highlands, and the expansionary Neo-Assyrian Empire of northern Mesopotamia. This volume adopts an interdisciplinary approach to understanding the social and political significance of how interregional networks operated within and between Mediterranean cultures during that era.

Recensioner i media

"This well-produced volume succeeds in its stated goal of emphasizing the complexity of cultural exchange in the Early Iron Age Eastern Mediterranean. It also admirably fulfills the aim of drawing attention to often-overlooked regions: as a reader who works largely in the Aegean and was trained in a Classics department, I found the discussions of Egypt, the Black Sea, and Phrygia particularly valuable."
