Centrifugal Forces Impacting Urbanization in the Eastern Mediterranean during Roman and Early Islamic Times

The volumes under review here continue this tradition. But, more significantly, they also demonstrate the current efforts by these researchers to bring archaeology out of its provincial past in the heartland…
