Summary:

This volume examines the architecture of the Kura-Araxes culture, which emerged in the Southern Caucasus during the mid-fourth millennium BCE and persisted for approximately a millennium. The study analyzes over fifty settlements and more than three hundred structures across modern-day Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Iran, and Turkey. It explores the diverse building materials, plans, dimensions, and construction techniques used by these communities, while identifying shared architectural traditions in four key regions: the Kura valley, the highlands, the Kvemo-Kartli mountains, and the Araxes valley. Despite variations, Kura-Araxes buildings commonly feature one or two rooms with internal elements such as hearths and benches, primarily serving as residential units with occasional exceptions for ritual or communal purposes.
