520 |a War belongs among the most elementary phenomena in human history. Brill's Companion on War Violence in the Ancient Mediterranean explores the many faces of war violence in the Ancient Near East, Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The contributors reveal the range, contradictions, ambivalences and changing conditions of the historical practices, discourses, and representations of war violence in the Ancient Mediterranean World while also opening up comparative perspectives on war violence. The companion offers a new starting point for the study of war violence in antiquity and makes a major contribution to the cultural history of violence.
