The Other Face of the Battle: The Impact of War on Civilians in the Ancient Near East

by Lecturer in Near Eastern Archaeology Davide Nadali (Editor), Jorgi Vidal (Editor)

This volume is the result of a project supported by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Technology, the aim of which was to study the impact of war on the non-combatant population of the Ancient Near East. The book presents seven contributions that analyse violence against non-combatants across a broad chronological spectrum, stretching from the end of the third millennium BCE to the middle of the first millennium. Contributions in this volume are the product of the project itself and arise from the particular research of specialists whose work relates to the theme of the project.
