This introduction to the archaeology of the Islamic world traces the history of the discipline from its earliest manifestations through to the present, evaluating the contribution made by archaeology to the understanding of key aspects of Islamic culture.
Archaeology in the Middle East and the Balkans rarely focuses on the recent past; as a result, archaeologists have largely ignored the material remains of the Ottoman Empire. Drawing on a wide variety of case studies and essays, this volume documents the emerging field of Ottoman archaeology and the relationship of this new field to anthropological, classical, and historical archaeology as well as Ottoman studies.
He tells of architecture, calligraphy, woodworking, and earthenware, but lays particular emphasis on the brilliant, underglaze-painted ceramics of Kutahya and the rich, piled carpets for which Turkey has been famed for centuries. While searching for the traits that define art and the stylistic complexities that characterize Turkish creativity, Glassie focuses on the artists and their theories and practices as well as the works they produce.
Volume 3 of The Cambridge History of Turkey covers the period from 1603 to 1839.

This urban and architectural study of Aleppo reconstructs the city's evolution over the first two centuries of Ottoman rule and proposes a new model for the understanding of the reception and adaptation of imperial forms, institutions and norms in a provincial setting.
A collection of four unconventional essays presented by Islamic art and architecture expert Michael Meinecke in lecture form at New York University before his sudden death in 1995. The case studies, representing years of field experience, do not follow the traditional periodic, linear approach of many scholars, instead focusing on changes in local workforces and craftsmen to explain the transformations and development of Islamic architecture. Meinecke discusses the city of Raqqa, the role of the Abbasid dynasty in its development, the architectural history of Busra and Hasankeyf and the influences of other cultures on their buildings, and the ways in which the Mamluk and Ottoman dynastic influences interconnect in Syria, Anatolia, and Egypt.
