The Making of Bronze Age Eurasia outlines the long-term processes and patterns of interaction that link these groups together in a shared historical trajectory of development. Interactions took the form of the exchange of raw materials and finished goods, the spread and sharing of technologies, and the movements of peoples from one region to another. Kohl reconstructs economic activities from subsistence practices to the production and exchange of metals and other materials. Kohl also argues forcefully that the main task of the archaeologist should be to write culture-history on a spatially and temporally grand scale in an effort to detect large, macrohistorical processes of interaction and shared development. 410 0$aCambridge world archaeology. 606 $aBronze age$zEurasia 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zEurasia 607 $aEurasia$xAntiquities 615 0$aBronze age 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a950/.1 700 $aKohl$b Philip L.$f1946-$01658291 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824959603321 996 $aThe making of bronze age Eurasia$94012214 997 $aUNINA
