Description

Chapter 1 introduces the geographical and chronological scope of the study, and examines previous research on the topic through a discussion of four Early Bronze Age ‘proto-histories’ (of Troy, Alacahöyük, Kültepe, and Indo-Europeans). The discussion is critical of the historicist approaches that have shaped current understanding of the Early Bronze Age in Anatolia, and introduces a political-economic and anthropological framework to arrive at a synthetic and more holistic understanding of this region and time period.
