This Dictionary gives a comprehensive survey of the whole range of
ancient Near Eastern architecture from the Neolithic round huts in
Palestine to the giant temples of Ptolemaic Egypt. Gwendolyn Leick
examines the development of the principal styles of ancient
architecture within their geographical and historical context, and
describes features of major sites such as Ur, Nineveh and Babylon,
as well as many of the lesser-known sites. She also covers the
variations of typical ancient architectural structures such as
pyramids, tombs and houses, details the building material and
techniques employed, and clarifies specialist terminology.
