Contributors to Malta's rich cultural development have been the Phoenicians, Carthaginians, Sicilians, Greeks, Romans, Berbers, Arabs, Turks, Normans, Spaniards, French, British, and others. Other important contributors have been the Holy See and the Order of St. John, whose members have often been known simply as the Knights of Malta. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eMalta is a missing link to understanding many interrelationships among Mediterranean peoples and civilizations that hitherto have remained hidden or problematic. Located at the center of the Mediterranean Basin, Malta has been pivotal in numerous cultural transformations and can serve as a prism for understanding much that is important about lifeways in the Mediterranean: trade, subsistence systems, religion, urbanization, and the transmigration of peoples in war and in peace.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stefan Goodwin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0897898206\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780897898201\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Praeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.14lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.02h x 5.96w x 0.86d","brand":"Stefan Goodwin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47202200912127,"sku":"9780897898201","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e5b42d6c-81b9-41c0-a87e-4e171efd0e96.jpg?v=1756819915","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/malta-mediterranean-bridge-stefan-goodwin-9780897898201","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
