Currently #AmReading Barry Cunliffe's 'By Steppe, Desert, & Ocean: The Birth Of Eurasia'. The illustrated #maps are so helpful for understanding and contextualising the written material in the #book. Trying to keep a track of the content without the #maps would be difficult. The #book covers 10,000 years of #history and a land mass encompassing both #Europe and #Asia. #Archaeology #Eurasia #Books #Bookstodon @archaeodons @bookstodon
