- Summary:
- This manuscript is the result of a colloquium devoted to armament, a theme at the heart of international research but sometimes lacking in visibility. It proposes a renewed vision and innovative approaches for the study of weapons and warriors in Europe and the Near East for ancient societies. Through 'classical' approaches and the implementation of new methodologies, the various authors explore military issues, but also more societal ones, like the way of making war, warrior elites, the composition of armies, the status of the warrior, the soldier, etc. In short, how, through the study of armaments can we understand societies and their mode of organisation? The various contributions in this book address several aspects of research characterising factors that influence changes or continuation in the equipment of the warrior and in modes of combat.
