Amongst the civilizations to participate in the dynamic processes
of contact and interchange that gave rise to complex societies in
the ancient Near East, Elam has remained one of the most obscure,
at times languishing in the background of scholarly inquiry. In
recent years, however, an increasing body of academic publications
have acknowledged its relevance and suggested that its legacy was
more considerable and long-lasting than previously estimated. The
Elamite World assembles a group of 40 international scholars to
contribute their expertise to the production of a solid, lavishly
illustrated, English language treatment of Elamite civilization. It
covers topics such as its physical setting, historical development,
languages and people, material culture, art, science, religion and
society, as well as the legacy of Elam in the Persian empire and
its presence in the modern world. This comprehensive and ambitious
survey seeks for Elam, hardly a household name, a noteworthy place
in our shared cultural heritage. It will be both a valuable
introductory text for a general audience and a definitive reference
source for students and academics.
