Description

Explore the history of writing in the ancient world with this scholarly work from Routledge Monographs in Classical Studies. This book investigates the epigraphic habit of the Eastern Mediterranean, covering the period from the start of alphabetic writing through the seventh century CE. By examining whether a single universal epigraphic culture existed or if multiple discrete cultures were present, this research provides deep insights into ancient communication. The study utilizes a massive quantitative analysis of 32,062 inscriptions. These samples span ten distinct areas across the Eastern Mediterranean, including the Black Sea coast, Greece, western and central Asia Minor, Phoenicia, and Egypt. Readers will gain a better understanding of how the shapes of epigraphic curves varied across these regions. This book is an essential resource for students and historians interested in ancient history, classical studies, and the development of writing systems in the Mediterranean region.
