AbstractBrief abstract written by HRAF anthropologists who have done the subject indexing for the document
The author defines and describes the various types of settlements found in the area by archaeologists and the potential linguistic terms that may have been used by the inhabitants. However, the discussion is not concerned with chronology and so the time periods discussed range from the Neolithic to the Iron Age. The type of settlements discussed range from hamlets and farms to cities that may have religious, political, and legal functions.
