This book focuses on urbanization and state formation in middle
Tyrrhenian Italy during the first millennium BC by analyzing
settlement organization and territorial patterns in Rome and Latium
vetus from the Bronze Age to the Archaic Era. In contrast with the
traditional diffusionist view, which holds that the idea of the
city was introduced to the West via Greek and Phoenician colonists
from the more developed Near East, this book demonstrates important
local developments towards higher complexity, dating to at least
the beginning of the Early Iron Age, if not earlier. By adopting a
multidisciplinary and multi-theoretical framework, this book
overcomes the old debate between exogenous and endogenous by
suggesting a network approach that sees Mediterranean urbanization
as the product of reciprocal catalyzing actions.
