Changing Settlement Patterns in the Aksum-Yeha Region of Ethiopia: 700 BC - AD 850Archaeopress, 2005 - 256 páginas Joseph W Michels takes a regional perspective to examine Aksumite sites (the Horn of Africa) from 700 BC to 850 AD in their spatial and behavioural contexts. The fieldwork introduced a regional approach to archaeological survey in Ethiopia that was unique in its methodological thoroughness and analytical rigour. The models of change and development in political organization from Pre-Aksumite through Post Aksumite times provide valuable hypothetical models. |
