The Invisible Sex: Uncovering the True Roles of Women in Prehistory
ISBN: 9781598743906 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Shaped by cartoons and museum dioramas, our vision of Paleolithic times tends to feature fur-clad male hunters fearlessly attacking mammoths while timid women hover fearfully behind a boulder. Recent archaeological research has shown that this vision bears little relation to reality. J. M. Adovasio and Olga Soffer, two of the world's leading experts on perishable artifacts such as basketry, cordage, and weaving, present an exciting new look at prehistory. With science writer Jake Page, they argue that women invented all kinds of critical materials, including the clothing necessary for life in...

Vertrag, Treueid und Bund

Zahlreiche formale und inhaltliche Parallelen zwischen altorientalischen Vasallenvertraauml;gen und Treueiden auf der einen und dem Buch Deuteronomium auf der anderen Seite machen es wahrscheinlich, dass politische Vertragstexte den theologischen Ansto und die literarische Vorlage fuuuml;r die biblische Bundestheologie gebildet haben.

Economic Prehistory: Papers on Archaeology
ISBN: 9780521108515 / Angielski / Miękka / 660 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Throughout his career Grahame Clark has pioneered on a world scale the use of the archaeological record to document the economic and social life of prehistoric communities. In Europe he was the first to employ the concept of the ecosystem in archaeology and to underscore the necessarily reciprocal relationship that exists between culture and environment. In Britain he has played a major role in moving archaeology away from its preoccupation with typology and spurring on the newly emergent discipline of bioarchaeology. Economic Prehistory reflects all these concerns. Following a comprehensive...

Neo-Babylonian Court Procedure
ISBN: 9789004174962 / Angielski / Twarda / 335 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Even though scholars have known of Neo-Babylonian legal texts almost since Assyriology's very beginnings, no comprehensive study of court procedure has been undertaken. This lack is particularly glaring in light of studies of court procedure in earlier periods of Mesopotamian history. With these studies as a model, this book begins by presenting a comprehensive classification of the text-types that made up the "tablet trail" of records of the adjudication of legal disputes in the Neo-Babylonian period. In presenting this text-typology, it considers the texts' legal function within the...

Mithridates VI and the Pontic Kingdom
ISBN: 9788779344433 / Angielski / Twarda / 375 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Mithridates VI Eupator, the last king of Pontos, was undoubtedly one of the most prominent figures in the late Hellenistic period. Throughout his long reign (120-63 BC), the political and cultural landscape of Asia Minor and the Black Sea area was reshaped along new lines. The authors present new archaeological research and new interpretations of various aspects of Pontic society and its contacts with the Greek world and its eastern neighbours and investigate the background for the expansion of the Pontic Kingdom that eventually led to the confrontation with Rome.

This report presents the new excavations at Combe-Capelle Bas, a Middle Paleolithic site in southern France.
