Description

The Parthian Empire: A Handbook offers a comprehensive exploration of one of antiquity's most influential yet misunderstood civilisations. Under the Arsacid dynasty, the Parthians expanded from northeastern Iran to control territories spanning from Asia Minor to the central Asian steppe, creating an empire that united diverse peoples, cultures, and religions. This detailed handbook examines how the Parthian Empire shaped the history of the Near East and facilitated crucial interactions between the ancient world's great powers. Published by De Gruyter Oldenbourg as part of the Empires through the Ages in Global Perspective series, this volume provides scholars, students, and history enthusiasts with essential insights into a civilisation whose longevity and cultural significance remain central to understanding ancient Eurasian history and cross-regional exchange.
