Centre And Periphery In The Ancient World by Michael Rowlands
Proceedings of the Cambridge University Seminar in Archaeology and History
This scholarly work delves into the dynamics between central and peripheral regions in ancient civilizations, exploring how these interactions shaped cultural, economic, and political landscapes. By examining various case studies from different historical contexts, the book highlights the complexities of power distribution and the reciprocal influences between dominant centers and their surrounding areas. It provides a nuanced understanding of how peripheral regions contributed to the development of ancient societies, challenging traditional narratives that often emphasize the primacy of central powers.
