During this period human societies moved from small-scale hunter-gatherer groups to complex and hierarchical communities with economies based on agriculture and industry. Dr Du?ring traces the spread of the Neolithic way of life, which ultimately reached across Eurasia, and the emergence of key human developments, including the domestication of animals, metallurgy, fortified towns and long-distance trading networks. Situated at the junction between Europe and Asia, Asia Minor has often been perceived as a bridge for the movement of technologies and ideas. By contrast, this book argues that cultural developments followed a distinctive trajectory in Asia Minor from as early as 9,000 BC. 606 $aPrehistoric peoples$zTurkey 606 $aAntiquities, Prehistoric$zTurkey 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zTurkey 607 $aTurkey$xAntiquities 615 0$aPrehistoric peoples 615 0$aAntiquities, Prehistoric 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a939/.2 700 $aDu?ring$b Bleda S.$01040904 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459081503321 996 $aThe prehistory of Asia Minor$92464103 997 $aUNINA
