The Ancient Arabs

Nomads on the Borders of the Fertile Crescent 9th-5th Centuries B.C

Synopsis
 The ancient Arabs presents the first comprehensive study of the nomadic peoples on the borders of the Bible lands, through an analysis of biblical and contemporary sources in Assyro-Babylonian, Greek and Ancient Arabic. A new synthesis of their relations with the great empires of the Ancient Near East, as well as the kingdoms of Israel and Judah emerges.
