Nomads, Tribes and the State in the Ancient Near East
This interesting conference took place in March 2009, at the University of Chicago’s Oriental Institute, which is where I did some graduate work. You won’t find the papers that were presented, but you can read the abstracts.
That stirs up some thoughts re. the Khamsat. Thank you so much for the link!
Oh, lots of interesting things there.
Backing up a few more years (to the late Pleistocene and Early Holocene eras), I’m enjoying “The Evolution of Human Populations in Arabia: Paleoenvironments, Prehistory and Genetics” – Michael D. Petraglia (Editor), Jeffrey I. Rose (Editor)
