{"product_id":"officials-and-administration-in-the-tayfun-bilgin-9781501516627","title":"Officials and Administration in the Hittite World","description":"There are few studies that deal with an overall treatment of the Hittite administrative system, and various other works on its offices and officials have tended to be limited in scope, focusing only on certain groups or certain time periods. This book provides a comprehensive investigation of the administrative organization of the Hittite state throughout its history (ca. 1650-1180 BCE) with particular emphasis on the state offices and their officials. Bringing together previous works and updating with data recovered in recent years, the study presents a detailed survey of the high offices of the state, a prosopographical study of about 140 high officials, and a theoretical analysis of the Hittite administration in respect to factors such as hierarchy, kinship, and diachronical changes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tayfun Bilgin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1501516620\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501516627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e de Gruyter\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/03\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 523\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.16lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 1.31d","brand":"Tayfun Bilgin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44058900136191,"sku":"9781501516627","price":138.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_42b9b8ae-e0eb-43d8-b3c9-069aca6ccb93.jpg?v=1685055125","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/officials-and-administration-in-the-tayfun-bilgin-9781501516627","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
