The research will investigate the role of the individual in intercultural contact within long-distance trade between Assur in northern Iraq and central Turkey during the 20th-18th centuries BCE and explore how an understanding of individual action can elucidate the intersections between socio-cultural change, mobility, and early political economy.The rich archives documenting the lives of Assyrian traders participating in this trade while living abroad in Anatolia and the archaeological remains and contents of their houses provide an exceptional dataset to conduct a novel investigation into how individuals negotiated intercultural interaction and consider migration, multiculturalism, and their effects on economic structures.

该研究将调查公元前20 - 18世纪期间，在伊拉克北方的亚述和土耳其中部之间的长途贸易中，个人在跨文化接触中的作用，并探索对个人行动的理解如何能够阐明社会文化变化，流动性，和早期的政治经济。丰富的档案记录了亚述商人在安纳托利亚生活时参与这种贸易的生活，他们的房屋的遗骸和内容提供了一个特殊的数据集，以进行一个新的调查，个人如何谈判文化间的互动和考虑移民，多元文化及其对经济结构的影响。
