Ancient people did not live in isolation from one another. Rather, their worlds were connected to each other in many ways. Cities, states and peoples maintained diplomatic and political contacts – sometimes peaceful, sometimes warlike. Trade goods were transported over long distances. Religious beliefs, artistic trends and technical innovations spread across three continents.
This volume focuses on several examples of interregional contacts in antiquity. The time frame extends from the Neolithic to the early Middle Ages; geographically, the contributions cover the entire ancient Oikumene from the Atlantic to China and from the Baltic Sea to sub-Saharan Africa.
