  • Pottery Vessels and Oil Lamps from the Iron Age, Persian, Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine Periods from Ben Gamli’El Street, Yafo (Jaffa) Peter Gendelman
    ‘Atiqot 100, 2020 Pottery Vessels and Oil Lamps from the Iron Age, Persian, Hellenistic, Roman and Byzantine Periods from Ben Gamli’el Street, Yafo (Jaffa) Peter Gendelman Introduction The 2014 excavation on 10 Ben Gamli’el Street, Yafo, uncovered a large pottery assemblage, dating mostly from the late Iron Age to the Byzantine period (see Arbel, this volume). This article describes the pottery vessels and oil lamps, the majority of which belong to the Persian and Hellenistic periods, as well as a terracotta figurine of the Hellenistic period.1 As much of the pottery was found in accumulations, the precise stratigraphic context of the vessels could not be verified. Thus, while the finds probably relate to walls, a direct link could not be proven. A few sherds of the Iron Age and Roman period, for which no occupation layers were uncovered in the excavation, are also described here. A small collection of pottery finds of the Ottoman period is described by Arbel (this volume). The Late Iron Age Bowl-Krater Large Carinated Bowl-Krater with Folded Rim (Fig. 1:1).— Similar vessels were reported from layers dated to the eighth–seventh centuries BCE at sites such as Tel Gezer (Gitin 1990:217–219, Pl. 21:7–9) and Tel Ashdod (Ben-Shlomo 2005:202, Fig. 3.89:1; for further references, see Zimhoni 1997: Fig. 5.5:3).

  • Capital of Solomon's Fourth District? Israelite
    Capital of Solomon’s Fourth District? Israelite Dor Ayelet Gilboa1, Ilan Sharon2 and Elizabeth Bloch-Smith3 1 Kings 4 relates that Dor, the major port-town on Israel’s Carmel coast, constituted part of the Solomonic state. This formed the basis for several historical reconstructions. Here, for the first time, we examine all the relevant archaeological data available after three decades of excavations at Tel Dor. We conclude that indeed, archaeology supports a scenario whereby Dor passed from Phoenician to Israelite hands, but that this happened in the second half of the 9th century BC. This shift involved a significant change in the role of Dor and its harbour, exemplified by changes in urban layout, ceramic production, and in commercial and other interaction spheres. Keywords Dor, Kingdom of Israel, Mediterranean Iron Age, Mediterranean interconnections, book of Kings Introduction, previous scholarship and rationale In the context of the Israelite Monarchy, Dor Tel Dor (Kh. el-Burg) is an 8 ha large mound, located appears only once, in the list of Solomon’s administra- on Israel’s Carmel coast (Figs 1 and 2).

  • Golani Jewelry from the Iron Age II Levant ORBIS BIBLICUS ET ORIENTALIS, Series Archaeologica
    Zurich Open Repository and Archive University of Zurich Main Library Strickhofstrasse 39 CH-8057 Zurich www.zora.uzh.ch Year: 2013 Jewelry from the Iron Age II Levant Golani, Amir Abstract: Jewelry has always had an irresistible allure yet in the past also had a significance and function within society that went far beyond ornamentation. Jewelry is an important, if often forgotten facet of material culture. Its study is inter-disciplinary, involving archaeology, anthropology, art history, his- torical/textual studies, and research of materials and manufacturing techniques. While the renowned jewelry from regions such as Egypt and Mesopotamia has been studied, that of the southern Levant has received only limited attention, yet research of its archaeological/contextual, technological and socio- cultural perspectives is illuminating. The book is a final publication of the author‘s doctoral dissertation made available to the archaeological and academic community at large. It is geared to be a working tool for archaeologists dealing in this period and region and to scholars who study its arts and crafts. The book provides a handy typological structure for jewelry classification as well as a comprehensive andf useful catalogue for research in this and related fields. In addition, it illustrates the significance, meaning and functions of jewelry and the development of the jeweler‘s craft in the southern Levant during the first and second millennia BCE.

  • A Sikil Interlude at Dor
    A SIKIL INTERLUDE AT DOR: AN ANALYSIS OF CONTRASTING OPINIONS by FLORIS NICOLAS VERMEULEN Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS In the subject BIBLICAL ARCHAEOLOGY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA SUPERVISOR: PROFESSOR W. S. BOSHOFF NOVEMBER 2006 SUMMARY This paper analyses the opposing views regarding the presence or absence of the Sikil at Dor in Palestine during Early Iron Age 1. Textual sources claim that the Sikil were pirates who came from the west and settled in Cyprus. Egyptian sources point to a Sikil presence at Dor. Some scholars regard the Egyptian sources and archaeological finds at Dor as evidence of a Sikil settlement at Dor. Others maintain that there is a continuity of ceramics at Dor from Canaanite to Phoenician. Though there were foreign influences at Dor during Early Iron Age 1 which point to newcomers, they propose that these newcomers probably came from Cyprus. No archaeological record of a Sea People-presence at Dor has been discovered. This study textually traces the Sikil from the Aegean to Cyprus, Egypt and finally to Dor and a theory is presented that the Sikil originated in the Aegean, temporarily settled in Cyprus and finally at Dor.

  • Interpreting Phoenician Iron Production at Tel Akko
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School College of the Liberal Arts RE-FORGING THE PAST: INTERPRETING PHOENICIAN IRON PRODUCTION AT TEL AKKO, ISRAEL A Thesis in Anthropology by Mark T. Van Horn Submitted in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts August 2017 The thesis of Mark Van Horn was reviewed and approved* by the following: Ann E. Killebrew Associate Professor of Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies Thesis Co-Adviser Kenneth Hirth Professor of Anthropology Thesis Co-Adviser Mark Munn Department Head and Professor of Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii Abstract Tel Akko, located in northern Israel, has recently seen the discovery of large quantities of iron slag and metal working remains during excavations conducted from 2010 – 2016 by Drs. A. E. Killebrew and M. Artzy. Using geospatial analysis through geographic information systems (GIS), this thesis aims to present the findings of metal remains from the Killebrew-Artzy excavations. Material will be discussed by type -- e.g. slag, fused earth, iron lumps, etc., -- and then by spatial location across the site and diachronically. The GIS distributions for recovered metallurgical materials and the examination of the context of these finds will provide evidence for the location of a Persian period iron smithy at Tel Akko and the continuation of metalworking at Akko into the Hellenistic period. The relationship between the iron production at Tel Akko and the local economy and methods of production will be examined, and I will attempt to demonstrate that Persian period Akko represents a craft production context which is constituted by independent producers who have been consigned to nucleated centers of production for short term crafting of products, likely by order of the local temple or ruling administration, for the production of gifts as a form of tribute.

Bronze Age Mediterranean Trade and Politics Presenter: Abstract Order Leanne Campbell Louise Hitchcock Laura Pisanu Human Iconographies in the Late Bronze Age: Conscious Representations of Interconnections Leanne M Campbell Independent Scholar, Australia In this poster, designed for ASOR 2020, I will share my theses that my selected iconographic evidence, from the Late Bronze Age Minoan, Mycenaean and Egyptian Amarna frescos, reliefs and sculptures, provides us archaeological and artistic traditions portraying cultural interactions as well as social communications and stylistic influence and exchanges which are present in the images for us to read and to utilize to inform our greater understanding of these cultures and their social and political and artistic developments. It is recognised through archaeological evidence that these societies interacted and communicated resulting in a broad range of interconnections. Iconographic evidence documents and demonstrates the transfer of cultural and artistic exchanges and influences. In producing and creating new images, these Bronze Age peoples were conscious of neighboring artistic traditions, stylistically self-aware, and deliberately manipulating their own choices of portrayals of body shapes, dress codes and hairstyles, among other visual cues.
