- Summary:
- Milevski (a research archaeologists at the Israel Antiquities Authority) combines reports on the known data on exchanged goods in the Southern Levant during the Early Bronze Age, as well as networks and means of exchange of these goods, together with a theoretical discussion incorporating Marxist political economy, ethnoarchaeology, and economic anthropology approaches to archaeology and subsequent application of the outlined theoretical approach to the presented data on goods and networks of exchange.
