This book is a study of the long-term historical geography of Asia
Minor, from the fourth century BC to the thirteenth century AD.
Using an astonishing breadth of sources, ranging from Byzantine
monastic archives to Latin poetic texts, ancient land records to
hagiographic biographies, Peter Thonemann reveals the complex and
fascinating interplay between the natural environment and human
activities in the Maeander valley. Both a large-scale regional
history and a profound meditation on the role played by geography
in human history, this book is an essential contribution to the
history of the Eastern Mediterranean in Graeco-Roman antiquity and
the Byzantine Middle Ages.
