“A great step forward in the scholarship of frontiers and boundaries that bridges the gaps between disciplines. This useful volume will be critical reading for those interested in the history of the ancient Near East, in the imminent and emergent identities and relationships at the edges of larger polities, and in the geographical and political affordances of the regions that fall at the margins.”—Megan Cifarelli, Manhattanville College
