| Summary |
"Global history did not begin with the great European voyages of discovery. It did not start in the nineteenth century with a great divergence between the West and China. It is not syonymous with a globalization narrative. If we are to realize the full potential of a global approach to history then we must extend our chronologies and geographies. Bringing together historians and archaeologists of Africa, the Americas, and Eurasia, this Supplement focuses on the abundant evidence for behaviour and interaction on a global scale in the millenium before 1500."--Page 4 of cover. |
