Samenvatting

Women in the Ancient Near East offers a lucid account of the daily life of women in Mesopotamia from the third millennium BCE until the beginning of the Hellenistic period.

The book systematically presents the lives of women emerging from the available cuneiform material and discusses modern scholarly opinion. Stol’s book is the first full-scale treatment of the history of women in the Ancient Near East.

[The book is an English translation of "Vrouwen van Babylon" (2012). The original title is a more accurate representation of the contents, in that it is mostly specific to Mesopotamian culture].
