Agency theory examines the relationship between individuals or
groups when one party is doing work on behalf of another. 'Agency
and Identity in the Ancient Near East' offers a theoretical study
of agency and identity in Near Eastern archaeology, an area which
until now has been largely ignored by archaeologists. The book
explores how agency theory can be employed in reconstructing the
meaning of spaces and material culture, how agency and identity
intersect, and how the availability of a textual corpus may impact
on the agency approach. Ranging from the Neolithic to the Islamic
period, 'Agency and Identity in the Ancient Near East' covers sites
located in Turkey, Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Palestine, and Israel. The
volume includes contributions from philology, art, history,
computer simulation studies, materials science, and the archaeology
of settlement and architecture.
