editors website: "The historical and cultural role of the Aramaeans in ancient
Syria can hardly be overestimated. Thus The Aramaeans in Ancient Syria gives
precise and up-to-date information on different aspects of Aramaean culture. To
that end, history, society, economy and law, language and script, literature,
religion, art and architecture of the Aramaean kingdoms of Syria from their
beginnings in the 11 century B.C. until their end at approximately 720 B.C. are
covered within the handbook. The wide survey of Aramaean culture in Syria is
supplemented by overviews on the Aramaeans in Assyria, Babylonia, Phoenicia,
Palestine, Egypt, North Arabia and on the Aramaean heritage in the Levant." As
new copy.  [006527]
