The Orontes Valley in western Syria is a land 'in between',
positioned between the small trading centres of the coast and the
huge urban agglomerations of the Euphrates Valley and the
Syro-Mesopotamian plains beyond. As such, it provides a critical
missing link in our understanding of the archaeology of this region
in the early urban age.A Land in Between documents the material
culture and socio-political relationships of the Orontes Valley and
its neighbours from the fourth through to the second millennium
BCE. The authors demonstrate that the valley was an important
conduit for the exchange of knowledge and goods that fuelled the
first urban age in western Syria. This lays the foundation for a
comparative perspective, providing a clearer understanding of key
differences between the Orontes region and its neighbours, and
insights into how patterns of material and political association
changed over time.
