| Résumé : |
Revised and updated to include the latest findings in biblical, historical and archaeological research, The Macmillan Bible Atlas continues to portray in convenient graphic form every aspect of biblical history which conceivably lends itself to cartographic interpretation. To achieve this vast panorama of events spanning the years 3000 b.c. to a.d. 200, the authors have drawn not only from biblical studies, but from source materials in the fields of Egyptian, Assyrian, Greek and Roman studies as well, illustrating in full detail—
• mass migrations of populations and their settlements • conquests, deployment of armies, and battles and skirmishes described in the Bible • the economy of the ancient Near East, trade routes and natural resources • the development of international relations • the movements of a biblical character within a district or section of a city • small portions of Palestine with political boundaries accurately established • archaeological excavations in the Holy Land during the Stone Age, the Chalcolithic Period, the Canaanite Period, and the Israelite Period • the growth of the Church in the first and second centuries a.d. Maps and text are accompanied by many illustrations of costumes, tools, artifacts, coins, and weapons. In addition, there are valuable appendices, a detailed comparative chronology of early civilizations, a key to the various maps according to the books of the Bible, and a comprehensive index listing names and places cited in the maps and text. |
