Reviews

'This book offers a new point of view to scholarship that still believes in the classical notion of Hellenism. His integration of sophisticated methodological concepts is laudable and will change academic conversations for the better, the writing is fluid and the images and maps are very helpful. … the book is of great importance in both its method and its content for the study of First century BCE Commagene and the surrounding region.' Histara-les comptes rendus (www.histara.sorbonne.fr)
