The study of this pottery is the key to the understanding of the cultural and social history of the site, explaining killings and grave robberies within a divided society.The aim of this book is to present, with the help of a great number of illustrations, an overall picture of this site at the junction of Stone and Bronze.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Helmut Loofs-Wissowa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1407315064\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781407315065\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British Archaeological Reports Oxford Ltd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/28\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 488\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.69h x 8.27w x 1.33d","brand":"Helmut Loofs-Wissowa","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43925470642431,"sku":"9781407315065","price":165.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a415b3a1-32e1-4482-b8d1-9f974a47bf7b.jpg?v=1681077464","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/hill-of-prosperity-helmut-loofs-wissowa-9781407315065","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
