About this product

Product Information

While the modern nation can trace its origins back to 1747, the history of Afghanistan is far more ancient. It has long been a focal point of the Silk Road and human migration and many native peoples such as the Kushans, Samanids, Saffarids, and Mughals have founded their empires here. Afghanistan has also been the target of numerous invasions and is therefore one of the most critically diverse places on earth. ?Essential reading for anyone seeking a thorough understanding of the current situation in the region, this lively book places this rich and ancient seam of creativity in its broad historical context and offers the reader a full appreciation of a most remarkable country.

Reviews
The colorful illustrations of this informative and very accessible introduction to the archaeology and cultural history of Afghanistan make it the most attractive volume available on its subject matter. Simpson is an archaeologist and assistant keeper of the ancient Iran and Arabia collections in the British Museum, and he displays a thorough, insightful understanding of the underlying complexities of Afghanistan's location as the 'crossroads of Asia.' ... Simpson also emphasizes the significant contributions of the indigenous peoples themselves to Afghanistan's history, rather than interpreting their lives and destinies as simple products of external intervention and determination...the book definitely belongs in any university or public library collections on Afghanistan. Summing Up: Essential. All levels/libraries.
