Violence and the Fall of the Akkadian Empire

My post today deals with the Turkish archaeologist Omur Dilek Erdal’s discovery of an Early Bronze Age site in southern Turkey that contains the remains of men, women, and children.  According to Erdal, the mass killings is associated with the fall of the Akkadian Empire.
