Condition: as new. Washington, D.C. : Smithsonian Institution Press, 1994. Hardcover. Dustjacket. vii, 223 pp. Departing from archaeology's traditional urban focus, this book examines early Near Eastern and Mesoamerican civilizations from the perspective of the hinterland, arguing that the standard concept of the "homogeneous" rural community dedicated to food production and dependent on cities is oversimplified. The essays show that diversity of activities is not necessarily a function of population size and that social stratification and economic specialization are well developed in rural as well as urban contexts.

Soft cover. Condition: New. xxiv, 148, [approximately 140] pages : illustrations, maps ; 30 cm + 1 CD-ROM (4 3/4 in.). Tell el-Hayyat, the focus of this volume, is situated in the Jordan Rift Valley approximately two kilometres east of the Jordan River on the first terrace above the present floodplain. This work details the authors' investigations of agrarian economy andecology as they illuminate the roles of rural communities in the larger context of the first urbanized civilizations. The study explores the ways in which small farming villages like Tell el-Hayyat contributed and responded to the rise and fall of Bronze Age town life in the southern Levant. A rural perspective is particularly appropriate for this region amid its long legacy of sedentary agriculture, dynamic urban-rural relations, and their ecological consequences.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -Archaeological research conducted at Politko-Troullia, Cyprus offers a portrait of life in a prehistoric Cypriot village during the formative centuries preceding the first cities on the island. We tell the story of an international team of university undergraduates, graduate students, professional staff, and professors who lived and worked together to discover how people lived in the Cypriot countryside 4000 years ago. For about six weeks each year between 2004 and 2019, project members dedicated themselves from sunrise to sunset to the recovery and analysis of the archaeological and ecological remains left behind by Bronze Age Cypriots, illuminating the intimate details of daily life in antiquity.The evidence from Politiko-Troullia highlights the emergence of Cypriot community identity as a key element in the development of Cypriot urbanized civilization. Stylized human plank figures and a multitude of butchered deer bones, associated with concentrated evidence of spinning, weaving, and dying, provide compelling evidence for celebration of communal identity through feasting, and social relations conveyed by iconography and textiles. Metallurgical evidence across the settlement suggests that backyard copper smelting and casting was virtually ubiquitous in the households of Politiko-Troullia. Scientific analyses of plant and animal remains portray intensive orchard cultivation, and sheep and goat herding on adjacent hillsides, accompanied by hunting of feral pigs and wild Mesopotamian fallow deer in the Troodos Mountain foothills. Radiocarbon dating defines the lifespan of Troullia between about 2050 and 1900 BCE and establishes the timing of major landscape impacts just after 2000 BCE, when the settlement shifted upslope and abandoned its well in response to accentuated local erosion and downcutting.Thus, the archaeological exploration of Politiko-Troullia offers a dramatic case study of life in a pre-urban Cypriot community as its inhabitants responded to their changing environment and moulded the social foundations of ancient Cypriot civilization. 90 pp. Englisch.…
