Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In this groundbreaking book, Seth Priestman proposes a very rigorous methodology together with a strong critical sense and meets the readers expectations. The book fills a gap in the archaeology of the Indian Ocean that is severely lacking quantitative analysis of the available data. - _Inte…rnational Journal of Nautical Archaeology_From AD 5001000, the Indian Ocean emerged as a global commercial centre, and by around 750800 a sophisticated trade network had been established involving the movement of goods from Japan and China in the east, to southern Africa and Spain in the west. However, the Indian Oceans commercial system has been relatively understudied, with many of the key assumptions regarding its development based on narrative textual sources and selective archaeological evidence. This study sets out the case for the unique significance of quantified ceramic finds as an indicator of long-term changes in the scale and volume of maritime exchange in a period for which few other sources of systematic economic history survive. The publication presents archaeological data from thirteen sites distributed across the western Indian Ocean, including Siraf (Iran), Anuradhapura (Sri Lanka) and Manda (Kenya). The ceramic assemblages are considered in terms of their general compositional characteristics and the distinctions between local, regional and long-distance exchange. The volume concludes with a discussion of how this data can be used to address the broader issues of long-term economic change and the relationship between state power in the Middle East and the commercial networks of the Indian Ocean operating via the Persian Gulf. From AD 500-1000, the Indian Ocean emerged as a global commercial centre, and by around 750-800 a sophisticated trade network had been established. However, the Indian Ocean's commercial system has been understudied. This book documents the unique significance of ceramic finds as an indicator of long-term changes in the scale of maritime exchange Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
