Reviews
""This volume in honor of Edgar Peltenburg is more than a Festschrift. It is a compendium of modern archaeological studies and provides ample evidence that the archaeology of the ancient Near East is theoretically informed and theory-driven.[...]Jennifer Webb writes that Eddie Peltenburg created an ""almost single-handed construction of a social archaeology for the Cypriot Chalcolithic."" This provocative book is a fitting tribute to the influence of his work and teaching."" -- Journal of the American Oriental Society Journal of the American Oriental Society
