Volume 2: Land Use and Settlement Patterns
revisits archaeological evidence from Syria, Palestine, the Arabian Peninsula, Iraq and Egypt describing a variety of land-use patterns and the development of a particular type of settlement across the Near East.
Volume 3: States, Resources and Armies
focuses on a comparative analysis of Byzantine, Sasanian and Muslim armies and their impact on state resources.
Volume 4: Elites Old and New

“Taken together, these studies offer clear guidance to novices and invaluable points
of reference for all students of the Byzantine and Islamic worlds in this period.”
