Description: Elam. Surveys of Political History and Archaeology Carter, Elizabeth; Stolper, Matthew W. Berkeley; Los Angeles; London University of California Press 1984 Softcover 8vo 8" - 9" tall Xiv, 328 pp. Bibliography, index. Tables, figures, maps. Octavo. Dull orange and cream soft covers have minor shelf wear, spine very lightly faded, corners with just a hint of curl. Interior clean and unmarked, last few pages have slight corner curl at top edge, otherwise very good. "The two surveys in this book are based on discrete kinds of primary sources, namely written evidence and material remains. The result is 2 distinct perspectives on ancient Elam that cannot be fully integrated but should not be isolated from each other....For the earliest period covered here, c.3500-2500 B. C. , the archaeological record is rich and the usable written record rather poor, but by the latest periods treated, around the middle of the first millennium B. C. , this balance is reversed."

For books over $799 we may ship via CanadaPost from Toronto. Canadian customers -- we may have to charge HST/GST for Canadian purchases (generally 5% for books). However, shipping is generally lower than on ebay's shipping cost calculator. Email me with your province and I'll be happy to calculate HST and shipping. We are happy to combine shipping! For our international customers, import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding/buying. These charges are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when you pick the item up -- do not confuse them with additional shipping charges. We really cannot show merchandise below value or mark items as "gifts" - it can get us into all kinds of trouble with customs. Since Brexit, shipping to the UK may require a VAT invoice. We have been selling books for over 20 years and pack and ship them with care. Thanks for bidding and thanks for being a fellow book lover. See our other listings for more unusual and rare books.
