Jarret-
Thanks for publishing this piece- it resonates with me as I get ready to pursue a master’s in history this fall. I was hoping that from your experience you might be able to help me figure out how to get a head start on my thesis…
I plan on studying early history of afro-arab regions and will be spending time in the middle east next summer. I do not have a city in mind yet; hoping to base my decision off of the area with best chance of meaningful archival research. I am not set on an exact topic yet which makes things more challenging, but if you have any opinions/recommendations for centers in the middle east that might be promising (or even the best approach to hunting for these sites) I would appreciate it!
