Description
Life and Society in the Hittite World. By TREVOR BRYCE. Oxford: OXFORD UNIVERSITY PRESS, 2002. Pp. xiv + 312, illus. The book under review follows on the heels of Trevor Bryce's The Kingdom of the Hittites (Oxford, 1998), which was a narrative of political history. The new book completes Bryce's study of Hittite history by presenting the social and economic history of the Hittite state. In successive chapters we learn of "King, Court and Royal Officials," "The People and the Law," "The Scribe," "The Merchant," "The Warrior," "Marriage," "The Gods," "The Curers of Disease," "Death, Burial and the Afterlife," "Festivals and Rituals," "Myth," "The Capital," and "Links across the Wine-Dark Sea."
