    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.

  • The Great Medieval Sage Maimonides, in His
    Rabbi David Ellenson’s Eulogy for Rabbi Alfred Gottschalk In the Mishneh Torah, Maimonides writes of the respect that marks the relationship and the feelings that bind the student to his rabbi, and he instructs the student on the actions he must take and the emotions he will suffer upon the death of his rav. In Hilchot Talmud Torah, he states, ““V’ein l’kha kavod gadol michvoid harav v’lo mora mei-mora harav – Amru hachamim mora harav k’mora shamyim – There is no greater honor you possess and can display than the honor you possess and display for your rabbi, and there is no reverence that you can possess and display than the reverence you possess and display towards your rabbi. As our Sages have said, ‘The respect and awe you display towards your rabbi is identical to that which you must display towards Heaven.” No wonder that Maimonides therefore observes, “U’khe’she-yamut rabo, kore’a kol b’gadav ‘ad she-hu m’ga’leh et libo … – And when his rabbi dies, the student tears his clothes until he reveals his heart, and the tear remains forever.” For me, and for thousands of others, no rabbi commanded greater respect and awe than mori v’rabi, my teacher and my Rabbi, moreinu v’rabeinu – our Teacher and our Rabbi -- Alfred Gottschalk, and his death leaves us bereft and forlorn. His life was a remarkable one, and his accomplishments legendary. As has been said, this man – chased cruelly as a child from Nazi Germany – took refuge with his mother on these shores and through the inspiration and guidance of his congregational rabbi and Rabbi Stephen S.

Fischer Köln, Mai 2010 Mein Dank geht an meinen Doktorvater, Prof. Dr. Thomas Fischer. Die Erstellung meiner Doktorarbeit ist ebenso wie mein Studium an der Universität Köln durch seine fachliche Begleitung eine stets bereichernde Erfahrung gewesen. Ebenfalls möchte ich hierfür Prof. Dr. Salvatore Ortisi danken. Zwei Jahre am Deutschen Evangelischen Institut für Altertumswissenschaft des Heiligen Landes haben nicht nur durch die freundschaftliche Verbundenheit zum gesamten Team des Institutes, sondern auch durch den wissenschaftlichen Input durch Prof. Dr. Dr. Dr. h.c. Dieter Vieweger meine Zeit des Forschens und Schreibens in Jerusalem zu einem unvergesslichen Aufenthalt gemacht. Meinem Team in Shivta (Mathias Grasnick, Anders Knoll, Clemens Schulze) gilt mein Dank für unermüdlichen Einsatz und eine Leistung, die in einer anderen Konstellation nicht zu bewerkstelligen gewesen wäre. Meine Freunde und Kollegen sind im In- und Ausland verstreut, und ich möchte hier nicht nur denjenigen danken, die mich vor Ort tatkräftig unterstützt haben, sondern auch allen, die dies ’auf Entfernung’ immer wieder getan haben. Meiner Familie gilt mein besonderer Dank für den grossen Rückhalt den ich stets durch sie erfahren habe. Der größte Dank gilt an dieser Stelle jedoch meinem Vater, Dr. Ekkehard Röhl, der mich vom Beginn meines Studiums an ermutigte und bestärkte.

Bulletin of the History of Archaeology, 30(1): 8, pp. 1–11. DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/bha-650 RESEARCH PAPER: AMERICAS/MIDDLE EAST/AFRICA Underground – Archaeological Research in the West Bank, 1948–1967: Management, Complexity, and Israeli Involvement Mordechay Lash, Yossi Goldstein and Itzhaq Shai The outcome of the 1948 war in Palestine resulted not only in the country’s partition between the state of Israel and the Kingdom of Jordan but also in the division of its archaeological research. The Jordanian Department of Antiquities, which was responsible for administering archaeological research in the West Bank until 1967, prioritized research in the East Bank over research in the West Bank as a function of broader Jordanian government policy. The bulk of the research in the West Bank during this period was conducted by foreign institutions and researchers, who were forced to choose between researching in Israel and researching in the Arab countries, including the West Bank. Those who chose to research in Israel were denied the ability to simultaneously research and excavate in the West Bank. In this way, the choice of the foreign researchers divided them, placing them on the two different sides of the ‘Green Line’. The excavations in the West Bank piqued the curiosity of the Israelis, who never ceased trying to acquire information about them and their findings. These efforts included secret meetings with foreign researchers, attempts to acquire the Qumran scrolls, and the secret transfer to Israel of a few findings for the sake of secret research.
