The Ancient Near East in Transregional Perspective - Katharina Streit Taschenbuch

This volume examines in detail the distinct cultural entity of the Wadi Rabah culture in the southern Levant and its interconnections and interactions to the cultural entities of northern Levant northern Mesopotamia and Egypt between ca. 5800 and 5200 cal BC. Previously unnoticed parallels in material culture and cultural practice are analyzed systematically and it is proposed that the center of the transregional cultural entity that influenced the southern Levant lays in the northern Levant and northern Mesopotamia.
