SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
This thesis is a study of the ways in which the Late (Neo-) Assyrian empire integrated agricultural practices into its imperial designs. The ancient kingdom of Late Assyria (ca. 900 - 600 BCE) was one of the world's first empires, and at its peak stretched across Iran, Syria, Anatolia, the Levant and Egypt. In northern Mesopotamia, Assyria resettled subjects from conquered territories and put them to work farming the land. Clearly, this program of agricultural colonization supported the economic growth of the empire; this work examines the socio-political effects of this practice. This research pursues the implementation of (re)settled agriculture from a political ecology perspective. The study investigates the ways in which this enforced agricultural regime generated not just surplus grain, but also new relations of power negotiated through agrarian practices that spanned land-use, labor, tax and tithing systems, and foodways.
