In this book, Bleda During offers an archaeological analysis of
Asia Minor, the area equated with much of modern-day Turkey, from
20,000 to 2,000 BC. During this period human societies moved from
small-scale hunter-gatherer groups to complex and hierarchical
communities with economies based on agriculture and industry. Dr
During traces the spread of the Neolithic way of life, which
ultimately reached across Eurasia, and the emergence of key human
developments, including the domestication of animals, metallurgy,
fortified towns and long-distance trading networks. Situated at the
junction between Europe and Asia, Asia Minor has often been
perceived as a bridge for the movement of technologies and ideas.
By contrast, this book argues that cultural developments followed a
distinctive trajectory in Asia Minor from as early as 9,000 BC.
