Alternative Complexities: The Archaeology of Pastoral Nomadic States
TL;DR: The authors reviewed established ideas for how and why complex organization emerged among nomadic groups and then considered these ideas in the context of recent archaeological theory on statehood and new material evidence for pastoral nomadic prehistory.
Anthropology: Social and Cultural, in Iran and Afghanistan
TL;DR: Anthropology as an Iranological discipline evolved from a Western interest in non-western and especially non-literate societies; over the past fifty years it has developed a holistic and relativistic approach to the ethnographic description of life in small, largely face-to-face communities, and to the analysis and explanation of variation in human experience generally as discussed by the authors.

Solving Contradictions: Nomads and Political Complexity
TL;DR: In this paper, a new explanation for Xiongnu political emergence and statehood is proposed based on the spatial politics concept and interaction theory, which makes room for alternative kinds of political complexity and defines pastoral nomadism in a way that forefronts mobile political process.
