520 1  "Positioned at the crossroads of the maritime routes 
       linking the Indian Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, the 
       Yemeni port of Aden grew to be one of the medieval world's
       greatest commercial hubs. Approaching Aden's history 
       between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries through the 
       prism of overseas trade and commercial culture, Roxani 
       Eleni Margariti examines the ways in which physical space 
       and urban institutions developed to serve and harness the 
       commercial potential presented by the city's strategic 
       location." "Utilizing historical and archaeological 
       methods, Margariti draws together a variety of sources far
       beyond the normative and relatively accessible legal 
       rulings issued by Islamic courts of the time. She explores
       environmental, material, and textual data, including 
       merchants' testimonies from the medieval documentary 
       repository known as the Cairo Geniza. Her analysis brings 
       the port city to life, detailing its fortifications, water
       supply, harbor, customshouse, marketplaces, and ship-
       building facilities. She also provides a broader picture 
       of the history of the city and the ways merchants and 
       administrators regulated and fostered trade." "Margariti 
       ultimately demonstrates how port cities, as nodes of 
       exchange, communication, and interconnectedness, are 
       crucial in Indian Ocean and Middle Eastern history as well
       as Islamic and Jewish history. Her study challenges 
       conventional ideas of trade networks based solely on 
       religious and ethnic affiliation and contributes to a 
       larger understanding of trading systems, the intertwining 
       of medieval religions and culture, and the shape of a 
       whole society."--Jacket.
