Περίληψη (στα Αγγλικά)

How do we understand the systemic interactions that took place in and between different regions of prehistoric Eurasia and their consequences for individuals, groups and regions on both a theoretical and empirical basis? Such interactions helped create economic and cultural spheres that were mutually dependent yet distinct. This volume, emerging from a conference hosted in memory of Professor Andrew Sherratt in Sheffield in April 2008 and in honour of his contributions to large-scale economic history, presents some diverse archaeological responses to this problem. These range from “world-systems” through “ritual economies” to “textile rivalries” and address the challenge of documenting, explaining and understanding the progressively more interwoven worlds of prehistoric Eurasia.
