The book is the first systematic archaeological monograph devoted
to the Maldives. It features contributions by leading
archaeologists and material culture researchers and offers an
archaeological account of this island-nation from the beginnings of
the Islamic period, it complements and nuances the picture
presented by external historical data, which identify the Maldives
as a key player in global networks. The book is aimed at students
and researchers interested in the archaeology and history of the
Indian Ocean, Islamic studies, island and coastal communities,
maritime networks, and the medieval period, with special relevance
for the ‘Global Middle Ages’. It will appeal to art historians,
archaeologists, museologists, and heritage and material culture
studies researchers with related interests.
