{"product_id":"once-there-was-a-place-augusta-mcmahon-9780903472272","title":"Once There Was a Place: Settlement Archaeology at Chagar Bazar, 1999-2002","description":"This volume presents the research of the British team within the modern excavations at the northern Mesopotamian site of Chagar Bazar, resumed in 1999 after a 62-year hiatus since the excavations of Max Mallowan. It incorporates settlement archaeology approaches and theoretical ideas of \"place\" in exploring the site and its internal and external landscapes. The primary focus is the settlement during the early 2nd millennium BC (Old Babylonian Period, post-Samsi-Addu), its final ancient occupation. The authors have taken a contextual approach, integrating aspects of the settlement's internal variations, including both community and private architecture, together with burial practices and symbolic and functional material culture. While its political importance varied, Chagar Bazar's persistence of occupation meant that it played a key role within the regional landscape as a meaningful landmark.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Augusta McMahon, Carlo Colantoni, Julia Frane\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0903472279\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780903472272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e British School of Archaeology in Iraq\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/23\/2010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.50h x 8.20w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2010 pg. 86","brand":"Augusta McMahon","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44076812140799,"sku":"9780903472272","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_22233e75-142f-41eb-ae63-436be90f89d8.jpg?v=1685466930","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/once-there-was-a-place-augusta-mcmahon-9780903472272","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
