    1 The Oberlin Near East Study Collection in Context *See page 4 for citation. Julian Hirsch 2 Acknowledgements In some ways the groundwork for my thesis and work on the ONESC Initiative began more than five years ago in a kitchen in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania. I was meeting Dr. Elizabeth Bloch Smith for the first time and could scarcely have imagined that our meeting would lead to my participation in an archaeological excavation in Israel that summer. After my first excavation, I was hooked. The spring before I came to Oberlin was filled with weekly meetings, readings, and discussions with Liz. I learned so much in that time and appreciate her continued guidance and support. If Liz was responsible for exposing me to just how fascinating the archaeology of the southern Levant was, Dr. Jeffrey Blakely was the person who helped me find the path where I could follow my passion at Oberlin. I still have my notes from the first day of the January 2017 Winter Term. I was amazed by everything Jeff knew about the history of biblical archaeology at the college and the history of the collection. If anything inspired me throughout my work, it was hearing vivid stories from Jeff about sitting in Harry Thomas Frank’s classroom learning about archaeology. Jeff has truly been my partner at every step of the way. I’ve consulted him for advice numerous times. Jeff kindly provided invaluable suggestions that only a true veteran of the field could offer. To give credit to Jeff in two more areas, Jeff certainly inspired my interest in the history of biblical archaeology and during the Winter Term in 2017 assigned me to work on the Bab edh-Dhra’ collection of Early Bronze Age tomb pots.

  • Social Networks in the History of Archaeology. Placing Archaeology in Its Context
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Institutional Repository of the Freie Universität Berlin Amara Thornton Social Networks in the History of Archaeology. Placing Archaeology in its Context Summary This paper explores the value of social networks in the history of archaeology, combining them with biography and prosopography to produce a practical method for examining the development of the discipline, and an alternative to the traditional history of archaeology narrative. It presents broad categories for the interpretation and visualization of social net- works, illuminated by case studies focusing on linked political and archaeological networks in early British Mandate Palestine and Transjordan. Social networks are a tool for under- standing the historical context of archaeological work, and can be utilized to explore the role of men and women, politicians, soldiers, artists, architects, funders and others, in the excavation, interpretation, presentation and reception of archaeology. Keywords: Archaeology; social networks; biography; prosopography; history; British Mandate Palestine and Transjordan. Der Artikel untersucht die Bedeutung von sozialen Netzwerken in der Geschichte der Ar- chäologie. Im Rückgriff auf biographische und prosopographische Ansätze soll eine geeig- nete Methode zur Untersuchung der Entwicklung des Fachs herausgearbeitet werden und eine Alternative zu den traditionellen Erzählungen in der Archäologiegeschichte. Anhand einer Fallstudie über die miteinander verbundenen politischen und archäologischen Netz- werke in den frühen britischen Mandaten Palästina und Transjordanien werden allgemeine Kategorien für die Interpretation und Visualisierung von sozialen Netzwerken diskutiert. Die Analyse sozialer Netzwerke gibt Einblick in den historischen Kontext archäologischer Arbeit und erlaubt es, die Rollen von Männern und Frauen, Politikern, Soldaten, Künstlern, Architekten und Sponsoren bei der Ausgrabung, Interpretation, Präsentation und Rezepti- on von Archäologie zu untersuchen.

Egypt’s first pyramids represent state control over resources, both material and human, on a new and much larger scale than previously. The state was ruled by a king, whose earthly power and ideological role were symbolized by the stone pyramid, first as a stepped structure and later as a smooth-sided form. The Great Pyramid at Giza, the most impres- sive of these monuments, was the largest building in the world for over 45 centuries.

This Morag M. Kersel trade is fuelled by a supply of antiquities acquired via both licit and illicit channels.1 Despite numerous studies2 showing a direct relationship between the demand for archaeological material and the looting of archaeological sites, the current government of Palestine is also considering a legalized sale of antiquities.3 The origins of the legal sale of antiquities in Israel and Palestine can be traced back to the Ottoman occupation of the region, which encouraged the movement of artefacts from the hinterlands to the capital. The legal precedents for the trade are also a legacy of the Mandate period, during which the British Mandate government established both the legal and logistical framework for the current antiquities The Tomb of the Shepherd of Moses in the scheme in Israel and the proposed law in Judean desert was recently excavated by Palestine.

The establishment and implementation of laws is not without its tribulations, whether in the past or present.

It has been gathered from the School’s Minute Books, now in the archive of the Palestine Exploration Fund, and from contemporary published reports in the Palestine Exploration Quarterly. By naming and enumerating the students at this institution, still in existence today, the diaspora of and networks inherent in archaeological training during the early years of professionalization become clear. The data also includes the background and education (where known) of these prospec- tive archaeologists, an important factor in evaluating issues of gender, class and education in the history of the discipline.
