Description

Explore the foundational history of human civilization with The Archaeology of Mesopotamia: Theories and Approaches. This volume serves as a critical guide to the methods and theories used to study one of the most significant regions in human history. From the origins of the discipline in the nineteenth century to modern-day practices, this book provides a comprehensive look at how we understand the ancient world. Ancient Mesopotamia, located in modern Iraq, was the birthplace of major human developments including farming, the rise of urban literate societies, and the first great empires such as Akkad, Babylonia, and Assyria. Dr. Matthews places the entire discipline within its historical and social context, helping readers understand how archaeologists conduct their research. Whether you are a student of ancient history or a researcher interested in the development of early empires, this Routledge publication offers an innovative evaluation of the approaches used to uncover the secrets of the Near East.
