By focusing on issues of diversity, scale, and context, it considers the ways in which economy, crafts, technology, and ritual were organised; the roles played by mortuary practices and households in the structure and development of ancient societies; and the importance of agency, identity, ethnicity, gender, 410 0$aThemes from the ancient Near East BANEA publication series ;$vv. 2. 606 $aSocial archaeology$zMiddle East 606 $aSocial archaeology$zCyprus 606 $aSocial archaeology$zTurkey 606 $aCommunity life$zMiddle East$xHistory 606 $aCommunity life$zCyprus$xHistory 606 $aCommunity life$zTurkey$xHistory 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xAntiquities 607 $aMiddle East$xHistory$yTo 622 607 $aMiddle East$xHistory, Local 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aCommunity life$xHistory. 615 0$aCommunity life$xHistory. 615 0$aCommunity life$xHistory. 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a935 701 $aBolger$b Diane$f1954-$01600530 701 $aMaguire$b Louise C$g(Louise Clare)$01622207 701 $aPeltenburg$b E.
