Description

Exploring the pivotal relationship between ancient Mesopotamia and Iran, this book delves into the origins of our modern world.

The development of farming, cities, writing, organized religion, and warfare is rooted in the interactions between lowland Mesopotamian communities and the highlands of Iran. From 6000 BC to AD 650, Mountains and Lowlands examines the evolution of these societies, featuring iconic pieces from the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, and other notable collections.

Supplemented by six specially commissioned maps, this publication offers a detailed yet accessible account of the Ancient Near Eastern world, shedding light on its most significant developments.
