Riassunto

This book is the first to characterize the Iron Age city-states of southeastern Turkey and northern Syria, using archaeological, historical, and visual evidence to argue for a unified cultural formation characterized above all by diversity and mobility.

Testo aggiuntivo

Diligently incorporating a tremendous array of archaeological and textual evidence, coupled with highly informative plans, graphs, and maps, this first book-length synthesis on the Syro-Anatolian city-states was a much needed, timely intervention. The author clearly accomplishes the goals he set out for himself, and this book will certainly remain a most reliable source in the field.
