The Connected Iron Age: Interregional Networks in the Eastern Mediterranean, 900-600 BCE by Jonathan M. Hall

A collection of 8 revised contributions to a conference at the University of Chicago, early 2018. Of course, this is very academic, and also very focused on methodology and interpretation models. But within those contours, this is all very solid and well-developed material. The baseline is that in the early Iron Age, roughly from 900 BCE to 600 BCE, there were many more interconnections in the eastern Mediterranean than previously thought. The role of the Greeks and Phoenicians is central to show more this, but a few contributions in this collection also include underexposed regions and peoples. I really liked the last chapter in which 6 provocative theses are put forward, to stimulate historians and archaeologists who study this period and to encourage them to reflect on their methodology and interpretation schemes.
