| Summary, etc. | A Short Account of Early Muslim Architecture (by K. A. C. Creswell) provides an overview of the development of Islamic architecture from the 7th to the early medieval period. It traces how early Muslim builders adapted and transformed Byzantine, Persian, and local architectural traditions to meet new religious and social needs, especially in mosques, palaces, and urban planning. The book highlights key features such as the mosque plan, domes, arches, minarets, and decorative elements, emphasizing how Islamic architecture evolved into a distinct and coherent style while remaining deeply connected to earlier civilizations. |
