    Towards In-Situ U–Pb Dating of Dolomites

    Towards in-situ U–Pb dating of dolomites Bar Elisha1,3, Perach Nuriel1, Andrew Kylander-Clark2, Ram Weinberger1,3 1Geological Survey of Israel, Jerusalem, Israel 2Department of Earth Sciences, University of California, Santa Barbara, CA, USA 5 3Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, Ben-Gurion University, Be’er Sheva, Israel Correspondence to: Bar Elisha ([email protected]) Abstract. Recent U–Pb dating by laser ablation ICP-MS has demonstrated that reasonable precision (3–10%, 2σ) can be achieved for high-resolution dating of teXturally distinct calcite phases. Absolute dating of dolomite, for which biostratigraphy and traditional dating techniques are very limited, remains challenging although it may resolve many fundamental questions 10 related to the timing of mineral-rock formation by syngenetic, diagenesis, hydrothermal, and epigenetic processes. In this study we eXplore the possibility of dating dolomitic rocks via recent LA-ICP-MS dating techniques developed for calcite. The in- situ U–Pb dating was tested on a range of dolomitic rocks of various origins (i.e., syngenetic, early diagenetic and epigenetic) from the Cambrian to Pliocene age—all of which from well-constrained stratigraphic sections in Israel. We present in-situ U– Pb results of dolomitic rock samples, together with imaging techniques and chemical characterizations. We show the 15 complexity of in-situ dolomite dating and discuss variables such as crater morphology, textural features, chemical and age zoning and detrital impurities that may affect the interpretation of the resulted ages. TeXtural examination indicates zonation and mixing of different phases at the sub-millimetre scale (<1 µm), and thus Tera-Wasserburg ages may represent miXing dates of early diagenesis and some later epigenetic dolomitization event(s).

Catalyzing true change and developing a cohesive society through dozens of innovative projects across the country, the Foundation provides growth and empowerment opportunities to the many communities in Israel. We develop and support novel solutions and creative partnerships, while evaluating result-driven programs with true social impact. In keeping with its philosophy of strategic philanthropy, the Foundation established the Edmond de Rothschild Research Series, to promote excellence in research and expand the knowledge in the Foundation’s areas of interest. The booklet before you centers on Baron de Rothschild's ("Hanadiv's") Legacy, as part of the first research series which focused on three main areas: 1. Access to and Success in Higher Education: As part of its efforts to reduce social gaps, the Foundation strives to insure access to and success in higher education for periphery populations. It supports programs aimed at improving access to higher education options through preparation and guidance, reducing academic student dropout rates, and translating graduates’ education into commensurate employment. 2. Measurement and Evaluation: The Foundation seeks to constantly enhance its social impact and therefore, emphasizes measurement and evaluation of the projects it supports according to predefined, coherent criteria.

    Caesarea Maritima (1996–2003)

    ‘Atiqot 92, 2018 A CHRONOLOGIcaL REVISION OF THE DATE OF THE POTTERY FINDS FROM THE EASTERN CIRCUS AT CAESAREA MARITIMA PETER GENDELMAN INTRODUCTION The pottery from the excavations of the Joint Expedition to Caesarea Maritima (JECM) in the Eastern Circus of Caesarea (cf. Humphrey 1974; 1975; 1986:477–491) provided valuable material for the pioneering article published by Riley (1975). Some twenty years later, an excavation team on behalf of the Israel Antiquities Authority (IAA) headed by Y. Porath, returned to this magnificent monument. These excavations, during 1996–2003 (see Porath, this volume), extended JECM Probe H5 near the obelisk (Humphrey 1975:15–24) and opened a new area at the southern edge of the spina and the meta prima (Areas VI, VIa). The pottery unearthed from the stratified layers discovered by the IAA expedition are of prime importance for the dating of the circus, which is the main goal of this study.1 The pottery finds are arranged in the plates according to strata and divided into four categories: fine tablewares, household vessels, cooking wares and amphorae. Most of pottery types discussed below were previously identified in large quantities from well- dated contexts in the IAA excavations at Herod’s Circus (Gendelman, in prep. a) and Insula W2S3 (Gendelman, in prep. b), where they were analyzed and discussed comprehensively. The typology used here follows that developed in the above-mentioned excavation reports. Consequently, the pottery in this article is treated briefly, with reference to the forthcoming reports. The pottery presented here was carefully chosen from stratigraphic contexts related to four major stages: Stratum IV—pre-Circus remains; Stratum III—the construction phase of the Eastern Circus subdivided into three phases (a–c); Stratum II—post-Circus activities; and Stratum I—modern topsoil (see Porath, this volume).

    Exporting Zionism: Architectural Modernism in Israeli-African Technical Cooperation, 1958-1973 Ayala Levin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Ayala Levin All rights reserved ABSTRACT Exporting Zionism: Architectural Modernism in Israeli-African Technical Cooperation, 1958-1973 Ayala Levin This dissertation explores Israeli architectural and construction aid in the 1960s – “the African decade” – when the majority of sub-Saharan African states gained independence from colonial rule. In the Cold War competition over development, Israel distinguished its aid by alleging a postcolonial status, similar geography, and a shared history of racial oppression to alleviate fears of neocolonial infiltration. I critically examine how Israel presented itself as a model for rapid development more applicable to African states than the West, and how the architects negotiated their professional practice in relation to the Israeli Foreign Ministry agendas, the African commissioners' expectations, and the international disciplinary discourse on modern architecture. I argue that while architectural modernism was promoted in the West as the International Style, Israeli architects translated it to the African context by imbuing it with nation-building qualities such as national cohesion, labor mobilization, skill acquisition and population dispersal. Based on their labor-Zionism settler-colonial experience,
