Uruk Mesopotamia & Its Neighbors:

Meer over het boek

Ancient Mesopotamia has often been cited as a model for the evolution of complex societies. In this volume, 12 contributions from field and theoretical archaeologists discuss recent research on Greater Mesopotamia during the late fifth and fourth millennia B.C.E. A sampling of topics includes the cross-cultural connections among the different subregions of Greater Mesopotamia, possible causes of the Uruk Expansion, and economic specialization in the Hacinebi subregion.
