Series: The Formation of the Classical Islamic World

This volume deals with fundamental aspects of the material life of
Islamic societies in the formative period. Three broad sections
comprise the scope of the book: the first on housing, the second on
textiles and clothing, and the final one on food and drink. In each
section, studies based upon both archaeological and literary
sources are included. The aim of the collection is to highlight
features of continuity between the pre-Islamic cultures of the
Middle East and those other aspects which were introduced as a
consequence of the development and spread of the Islamic religious
tradition. The editor's introduction to the volume reviews the
developments and current trends in each area, and notes the
problems in constructing knowledge of the material civilisation of
the early Islamic period.
