Abstract

In his book Babylonia 689-627 B. C., G. Frame provides a maximally detailed history of a specific region during a closely delimited time period, based on all available sources produced during that period or bearing on it. This review article critiques the methods used to derive the history from the sources and the conceptual framework used to apprehend the subject of the history.
