This handbook offers a concise survey of the history of Syria from the emergence of the first states on Syrian territory to the conquest by Alexander the Great. Each chapter begins with an introduction to the pertinent archives and continues with an outline history referring to all relevant textual sources and to the scholarly discussion. An extensive body of material is clearly presented--from the cuneiform texts of Ebla to the testimony of the Bible. The volume concludes with maps, synchronistic tables, and three indexes.
