In this controversial exploration of the early history of Islam, archaeologist Yehuda D. Nevo andresearcher Judith Koren present a revolutionary theory of the origins and development of theIslamic state and religion. Whereas most works on this subject derive their view of the history ofthis period from the Muslim literature, Crossroads to Islam also examines important types ofevidence hitherto neglected: the literature of the local (Christian) population, archaeologicalexcavations, numismatics, and especially rock inscriptions. These analyses lay the foundation for aradical view of the development of Islam. According to Nevo and Koren, the evidence suggeststhat the Arabs were in fact pagan when they assumed power in the regions formerly ruled by theByzantine Empire. They contend that the Arabs took control almost without a struggle, becauseByzantium had effectively withdrawn from the area long before. After establishing control, the newArab elite adopted a simple monotheism influenced by Judaeo-Christianity, which they encounteredin their newly acquired territories, and gradually developed it into the Arab religion. Not until themid-8th century was this process completed. This interpretation of the evidence corroborates theview of other scholars, who on different grounds propose that Islam and the canonized version ofthe Koran were preceded by a long period of development. This new view turns on its head thetraditional history of the rise of Islam, which claims that Islam began with Muhammad in Meccaand Medina around 622; then spread throughout Arabia under his charismatic leadership; andfinally, after Muhammad's death (632), inspired his followers to conquer widespread territoriesboth in the East and West. By contrast, Nevo and Koren suggest that the rise of the Arab statecreated a need for a state religion, eventually called Islam. This absorbing and controversialrethinking of Islam's early history is must reading for students and scholars of Islamic history andanyone interested in the origins of the world's second largest religion.
