Who were the Amorites?

The Amorites were once an age-defining people, but today they have been largely forgotten. So who were the Amorites, and how does Bible portray them? To take us back to the early Bronze era and the rise of the Amorite age, Helen and Lloyd are joined by the well-fared Time Traveller, Dr Dylan Johnson.
Dr Dylan R. Johnson (profiles.cardiff.ac.uk/staff/johnsond9) is a Lecturer in Ancient Near Eastern History at Cardiff University and an expert on all things Mesopotamian.
