This book is the first investigation of the relationship between
Palmyra and its surrounding territory from the Roman to the early
Islamic period since D. Schlumberger's pioneer campaigns in the
mountains northwest of Palmyra in the late 1930s. It discusses the
agricultural potential of the hinterland, its role in the food
supply of the city, and the interaction with the nomadic networks
on the Syrian dry steppe. The investigation is based on an
extensive joint Syrian-Norwegian surface survey north of Palmyra in
2008, 2010 and 2011 and on studies of satellite imagery. It
contains a gazetteer of 70 new sites, which include numerous
villages, estates, forts, stations and water management systems.
