Bonjour à tous,
Je suis en train de faire une traduction, et une phrase me pose un problème : La technique de la fonte «à la cire perdue» devient d'usage courant dans les civilisations du Croissant Fertile à la fin du IIIème millénaire. Comment traduiriez-vous cette phrase en anglais ? 'Les civilisations du Croissant Fertile', parle-t-on du Moyen-Orient ? La région Turquie, Iran, Iraq peut-être ??? Merci d'avance pour votre aide. Nadine
