The Evolution of the Ancient City: Urban Theory and the Archaeology of the Fertile Crescent - Comparative Urban Studies
Alexander R. Thomas
The Evolution of the Ancient City is an interdisciplinary look at how cities developed from Hunter-Gatherer societies to centers of vast empires in the Fertile Crescent between 21,500 BCE and 1,200 BCE. The reader is guided through each stage of social evolution and its consequences for our understanding of modern cities. As a result, urban theory must adapt to this long-range view of the city.
