Book Synopsis The Arabian Gulf in Antiquity: From Alexander the Great to the coming of Islam by : Daniel T. Potts
Download or read book The Arabian Gulf in Antiquity: From Alexander the Great to the coming of Islam written by Daniel T. Potts. This book was released on 1990. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Arabian Gulf has, since the early 1970's, been one of the most promising areas of research in ancient near-eastern archaeology. Until now, however, there has been no attempt to synthesize the archaeology and history of this region from the beginnings of human settlement to the rise of Islam. Drawing on a wide array of archaeological, epigraphic, and literary sources, Dr. Potts presents here for the first time a comprehensive study of the area in two volumes. The period from Alexander the Great to the coming of Islam, including a full discussion of Christianity in the area, comprises the second volume. The first volume covers the Pleistocene to the Achaemenian period. Both volumes are written in a clear and readable manner and are fully illustrated with figures and plates.

Book Synopsis The Arabs in Antiquity by : Jan Retso
Download or read book The Arabs in Antiquity written by Jan Retso. This book was released on 2013-07-04. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the Arabs in antiquity from their earliest appearance around 853 BC until the first century of Islam, is described in this book. It traces the mention of people called Arabs in all relevant ancient sources and suggests a new interpretation of their history. It is suggested that the ancient Arabs were more a religious community than an ethnic group, which would explain why the designation 'Arab' could be easily adopted by the early Muslim tribes. The Arabs of antiquity thus resemble the early Islamic Arabs more than is usually assumed, both being united by common bonds of religious ideology and law.
