"This volume breaks new ground in approaching the Ancient Economy by bringing together
documentary sources from Mesopotamia and the Greco-Roman world. Addressing textual
corpora that have traditionally been studied separately, the collected papers overturn
the conventional view of a fundamental divide between the economic institutions of
these two regions. The premise is that, while controlling for differences, texts from
either cultural setting can be brought to bear on the other and can shed light, through
their use as proxy data, on such questions as economic mentalities and market development"
