Book Overview

Classical archaeology promotes the view that a state's evolution reflects general, universal forces. Norman Yoffee challenges the model in this book by presenting more complex and multi-linear models for the evolution of civilizations. Yoffee questions the definition of the prehistoric state, particularly that which heralds the chiefdom as the forerunner of the ancient state and explores case studies on the role of women in ancient societies.
