As a follow up to the theoretical approaches examined in Volume 1, this volume includes representations of the different manners in which power can manifest and be responded to. Case studies from the wide temporal and geographic scope of the ancient Near East are used to highlight the various ways scholars can investigate and more fully understand ancient power relationships and their participants, and how they wield, manipulate, and respond to power in the ancient world.
