The Camel and the Wheel Hardback

Hardback

Item not Available

Description

Why, for many centuries, was the wheel abandoned in the Middle East in favor of the camel as a means of transport?

This richly illustrated study explains this anomaly.

Drawing on archaeology, art, technology, anthropology, linguistics, and camel husbandry, Bulliet explores the implications for the region's economic and social development during the Middle Ages and into modern times.
