330 .. $a "Empires of Antiquities is a history of the rediscovery of civilizations of the ancient
Near East in the imperial order that evolved between the outbreak of the First World
War and the 1950s. It explores the ways in which Near Eastern antiquity was redefined
and experienced, becoming the subject of new regulation, new modes of knowledge, and
international and local politics. A series of globally publicized spectacular archaeological
discoveries in Iraq, Egypt, and Palestine, which the book follows, made antiquity
visible, palpable and accessible as never before. The new uses of antiquity and its
relations to modernity were inseparable from the emergence of the post-war world order,
imperial collaboration and collisions, and national aspirations. Empires of Antiquities
uniquely combines a history of the internationalization of a new "regime of archaeology"
under the oversight of the League of Nations and its web of institutions, a history
of British passions for Near Eastern antiquity, on-the-ground colonial mechanisms
and nationalist claims on the past. It points to the centrality of the mandate system,
particularly mandates classified A, in Mesopotamia/Iraq, Palestine and Transjordan,
formerly governed by the Ottoman Empire, and of Egypt, in a new culture of antiquity.
Drawing on an unusually wide range of archives in several countries, as well as on
visual and material evidence, the book weaves together imperial, international, and
local histories of institutions, people, ideas and objects and offers an entirely
new interpretation of the history of archaeological discovery and its connections
to empires and modernity."--Jaquette
