"Our current world is characterized by life in cities, the existence of social inequalities,
and increasing individualization. When and how did these phenomena arise? What was
the social and economic background for the development of hierarchies and the first
cities? The authors of this volume analyze the processes of centralization, cultural
interaction, and social differentiation that led to the development of the first urban
centres and early state formations of ancient Eurasia, from the Atlantic coasts to
China. The chronological framework spans a period from the Neolithic to the Late Iron
Age, with a special focus on the early first millennium BC. By adopting an interdisciplinary
approach structured around the concepts of identity and materiality, this book addresses
the appearance of a range of key phenomena that continue to shape our world"--Provided
