Catalogue of an exhibition held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, May 8 to August 17, 2003. Highlights one of the most important and creative periods in the history of art: a time marked by the appearance of the city states of the Sumerians, the citadel of Troy, the splendid royal tombs at Ur, and the monumental cities at Mohenjodaro and Harappa. Topics include the emergence of the first city states, the birth of written language, and trade and cultural interconnections between the ancient Near East and outlying areas. (from PR).
