Villages in the Steppe: Late Neolithic Settlement and Subsistence in the Balikh

Description: Villages in the Steppe by Peter M. Akkermans Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description This study aims to shed some light on the nature of prehistoric human occupation in the Balikh valley of northern Syria. Human settlement in the Balikh valley has a long history, and due to its central geographic position the region was of great importance in terms of communication and cultural interaction in many periods. Publisher Description In this book, Akkermans provides a systematic overview of the Halaf culture in the Syrian portion of the valley of the Balikh River, a tributary of the Euphrates. Following a broad exposition of the geography of the region, excavation results, definition of chronological periods within the Halaf, and patterns of site distributions, interpretive questions are explored. These include site types and the problems of determining site hierarchies, the nature of Halaf subsistence, and the role of exchange in the Halaf culture. Author Biography Peter M. Akkermans is an archaeologist and Professor of Ancient Near Eastern Archaeology at Leiden University. He is a former curator of the Netherlands National Museum of Antiquities, and co-authored The Archaeology of Syria: From Complex Hunter-Gatherers to Early Urban Societies (c. 16,000-300 BC), (Cambridge University Press, 2004).
