City of the Hunter

The City of the Divine King (1. volume), The City of the Landowner (2. volume), The City of the Merchant (3. volume) and The City of the Hunter (4. volume) are the collected works about An Outline of the History of Urban Development.

The books are the result of a long-term research project at The Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, School of Architecture. The books deal with urban systems and architecture in the river kingdoms of the Near East the Orient by drawing attention to the relationship between social, spatial and architectural aspects.

The books are addressed to architects, city planners and those interested in historical and theoretical urban issues.

The City of the Hunter, the latest title, deals with urban systems and urban architecture in Original Societies, i.e. societies that conceptually antedate but historically are behind the agrarian class societies.
