An anthropologist with the Smithsonian presents a new approach to studying the development of cities and centralized states. Focusing on the Kur River Basin (in modern Iran) from the first human habitation to the first collapse of civilization, she uses the management and distribution of animals as an index of the economic factors necessary for a complex society.
