"The Oxford History of the Ancient Near East offers a comprehensive and fully illustrated
survey of the history of Egypt and Western Asia (Levant, Anatolia, Mesopotamia and
Iran) in five volumes, from the emergence of complex states to the conquest of Alexander
of Great. The authors represent a highly international mix of leading academics whose
expertise brings alive the people, places and times of the remote past. The emphasis
lies firmly on the political and social histories of the states and communities under
investigation. The individual chapters present the key textual and material sources
underpinning the historical reconstruction, giving special attention to the most recent
archaeological finds and how they have impacted our interpretation. The first volume
covers the long period from the mid-tenth millennium to the late third millennium
BC and presents the history of the Near East in ten chapters "From the Beginnings
to Old Kingdom Egypt and the Dynasty of Akkad". Key topics include the domestication
of animals and plants, the first permanent settlements, the subjugation and appropriation
of the natural environment, the emergence of complex states and belief systems, the
invention of the earliest writing systems and the wide-ranging trade networks that
linked diverse population groups across deserts, mountains and oceans"
