Historians and archaeologists normally assume that the economies of
ancient Greece and Rome between about 1000 BC and AD 500 were
distinct from those of Egypt and the Near East. However, very
different kinds of evidence survive from each of these areas, and
specialists have, as a result, developed very different methods of
analysis for each region. This book marks the first time that
historians and archaeologists of Egypt, the Near East, Greece, and
Rome have come together with sociologists, political scientists,
and economists, to ask whether the differences between accounts of
these regions reflect real economic differences in the past, or are
merely a function of variations in the surviving evidence and the
intellectual traditions that have grown up around it. The
contributors describe the types of evidence available and
demonstrate the need for clearer thought about the relationships
between evidence and models in ancient economic history, laying the
foundations for a new comparative account of economic structures
and growth in the ancient Mediterranean world.
