By collecting contributions from philologists, historians, and archaeologists of the Ancient Near East focusing on specific case studies that encompass the area from Anatolia to Mesopotamia and the Levant in the second and first millennium BCE, the volume aims at investigating representations and remembrances of crises and their aftermaths in textual, visual-art, and archaeological evidence. The volume focuses on moments of crisis and their representations in various media, and crucially also on questions linked to the aftermaths of crises. Particularly relevant are questions of how a group or a society reconstitutes itself after a crisis as well as how the transition or the change becomes manifest. Finally, the element of religion also produces significant questions, for instance, how religious thinking and practice intervene in dealing with a crisis and its aftermath, and what kind of innovation or change a crisis could spark in and through religion, as well as how a crisis is remembered.
