This volume aims to fill a gap, and to promote further research into the early second millennium BC. The volume presents a collection of studies by different authors focusing on a variety of aspects of the archaeological record. Several papers present new excavation reports and hitherto unpublished objects. Other topics include the dating of the local governors at Byblos, the transmission of offices in the period, the characteristic \"magical wands\" or Apotropaia, burials of royal women, and particular groups of stelae, with a new date proposed for a small but well-known corpus of wooden stelae from Thebes. Together these researches build on the range of approaches presented in Middle Kingdom Studies volume 1.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gianluca Miniaci\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 190613748X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781906137489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Golden House Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/05\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 260\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.70h x 8.90w x 1.00d","brand":"Gianluca Miniaci","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46311090847999,"sku":"9781906137489","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_d1dce4f3-1c2a-4571-8d60-ebe1029d4816.jpg?v=1730888087","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-world-of-middle-kingdom-gianluca-miniaci-9781906137489","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
