CALL:
We are pleased to announce an exciting new session that will take place at the ASOR Annual Meeting this year, and we invite abstract submissions until February 15th 2019 via the link above. The session is: Between Cities: Exchange and Urban Networks Description: Cities first emerged in the fourth millennium B.C.E. in ancient West Asia and Egypt and quickly became the centers of civilization. As such, cities were also the centers of economic, ideological, and cultural exchange. This session will feature papers that speak to issues such as the movement of goods and/or people, economic and socio-cultural relationships between cities, changes in urban networks related to political or ideological forces, and any other subjects related to inter-city relationships. We invite proposals that speak to these themes from methodologies including, but not limited to, literary, philological, archaeological, and anthropological approaches. Session Chairs: Shana Zaia, University of Vienna; Robert C. Kashow, Brown University
