A complete study of royal courts in the post-Achaemenid Near East. It brings together various aspects of court culture in the Macedonian empires of the post-Achaemenid Near East. It shows how the Hellenistic dynastic courts were instrumental in the integration of local elites in the empires, and the (re)distribution of power, wealth, and status.
