Selected studies of Péter Vargyas on ancient Near Eastern economy Szerkesztette:
Zoltán Csabai L?Harmattan Kiadó, 2010 The series Ancient Near Eastern and
Mediterranean Studies, issued by the Department of Ancient History, the
University of Pécs, will be devoted to questions of social, economic and
cultural connections between the Ancient Near East and the Mediterranean, from
the beginnings of mankind down to the Islamic expansion. ANEMS will attempt to
approach its subject matter from the most varied point of view, embracing
historical, linguistic and archaeological disciplines alike, covering all the
areas and historical periods of the Ancient Near East (including Ancient Egypt)
and the Mediterranean. The first volume in our series is dedicated to the memory
of Péter Vargyas,internationally renowned Assyriologist and economic historian.
Th is book is a selection of his papers predominantly published in the last two
decades providing detailed case studies on the economic history of Iran,
Mesopotamia, Ugarit and Ancient Egypt. Together with his book published in 2001
these papers represent the scientifi c output of a very important Hungarian
scholar who left us tragically in 2009. A kötet adatai: Megjelenés éve: 2010
