Boas, Adrian J. - Crusader Archaeology: The Material Culture of the Latin East

Routledge, London, 1999. First Edition, Hardcover (Original Cloth). Near Fine Condition/No Dust Jacket. 9780415173612 to front: titles; contents; illustrations list; preface; notes of place-names; abbreviations & chronology. One of the most fascinating and intriguing aspects of historical research is the study of how invading societies adapt to a strange environment, undergoing change themselves as well as influencing their new neighbours and surroundings. From the end of the eleventh century there were Christian states in the Levant which were hybrid societies resulting from the meeting of the very different cultures of the East and West. Although a wealth of literature has been written on the Crusading movement affording a clearer picture of what the Crusades entailed, little has been written to illuminate Frankish life in "the lands beyond the sea. " Crusader Archeology draws together recently excavated material from Israel, Cyprus, Syria and Jordan to examine what life was life for the Crusaders in their new territory, and how they were influenced by the local population. Chapters encompass Frankish urban and rural settlements, including agriculture, industry, the differing architecture employed by the military, the church, public and private structures, arts and crafts, leisure pursuits, death and burial customs, and building techniques. This highly illustrated volume comprises a graphic portrayal of the period and makes fascinating reading for all those interested in the Middle Ages, and particularly in the Crusaders Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. xxi + 267.
