    Israel Exploration Journal Edited by Shmuel Aḥituv, Aren M. Maeir and Zeev Weiss Vol. 68/2 (2018) CONTENTS 129 DEBORAH SWEENEY, CHRISTIAN HERRMANN, IDO KOCH, YUVAL GADOT, MANFRED OEMING and ODED LIPSCHITS: A Triad Amulet from Tel Azekah ABSTRACT: This article presents a highly unusual enstatite amulet discovered at Tel Azekah in 2015. It depicts two gods and a goddess, identified as the Egyptian deities Re-Horakhte, Seth and Hathor/Wadjet on the basis of their iconography and the inscription on the rear of the amulet. Though it lacks a secure archaeological context, we claim that it should be assigned to the Ramesside period on the basis of the deities depicted and mentioned in the inscription. The amulet is another indicator of the flourishing contacts between Azekah and Egypt during the twelfth century BCE. 150 MEIR EDREY, ERAN ARIE, HILA MAY and ASSAF YASUR-LANDAU: The Iron Age II Tombs of Area E, Tel Achziv: Between Local Traditions and the Consolidation of the Tyrian Polity ABSTRACT: During the 1963 excavation season at Tel Achziv, directed by M.W. Prausnitz, three cist tombs were unearthed in Area E, on the eastern part of the mound. These tombs, built of large roughly-hewn stone blocks, previously dated to the Iron Age IB, display a rich material culture, consisting of pottery vessels, weapons, jewellery and other small finds. To date, only parts of the assemblage of these tombs have been published in preliminary publications. Here, for the first time, we consider the entirety of the tomb assemblages, including ceramic, metal and other finds, as well as tomb architecture and human remains.

  • Three Conquests of Canaan
    ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.

  • “Jonah” Iconography on the Ossuary of Talpiot B Tomb
    Observations on the “Jonah” Iconography on the Ossuary of Talpiot B Tomb In 2002 an authentic first century Jewish ossuary purchased anonymously from the black market was identified as the ossuary of James, the brother of Jesus. It bears the inscription “James son of Joseph brother of Jesus” in Aramaic: scholars have debated over its authenticity1. However, I find it a secondary question. The problem is the provenance of presumed biblical relics. J.L. Reed and J.P. Crossan correctly note about it: We now have the James ossuary without context, provenance, or history. It is almost a poster warning about the destructive effects of paralegal artifacts collecting, about the potential criminal sanctions for selling and buying on illegal antiquities market, and about the moral difference between scientific archaeology and cultural looting.2 Unprovenanced artifacts, such as many presumed Jesus’ relics still displayed in churches as if they were authentic, have troubled scholars and are still at the centre of debates: the Shroud of Turin, the Sudarium of Oviedo, a large portion of the True Cross, or the Titulus Crucis are just some examples.3 The discovery of the Talpiot A tomb, in Jerusalem, back in 19804, was brought to the attention of the media again in 2007: a Discovery Channel documentary5, and a best-seller book6 claimed the Talpiot tomb was that of the family of Jesus. Some scholarly issues regarding the identification of the burial site with the Jesus family tomb have been debated on Near Eastern Archaeology7 and largely on Bible & Interpretation. 1 J. Magness, “Ossuaries and the Burials of James and Jesus”, Journal of Biblical Literature 1, (2005) and a number of different essays published at http://www.bibleinterp.com/articles/James_Ossuary_essays.shtml.

  • Making God Known to the World In-Depth Personal Study Sessions
    ONE SESSION SESSION STANDING AT THE CROSSROADS The people who lived in the land of Israel left behind an indelible record of their lives. An important part of that record lies in large mounds called tels, which are piles of debris from ancient cities that over the centuries were destroyed and rebuilt, one on top of another. As archaeologists excavate tels, they peel away preserved layers of history and bring to light evidence of the culture, architec- ture, art, diet, weapons, and even writings of the people who lived in those ancient cities. Their findings about the culture and people of ancient Israel stand as a testimony to the truth of the words we read in the Bible. This video focuses on Tel Gezer, one of the greatest tels in Israel. To stand on this huge mound is to stand on the ruins of as many as five thousand years of human history! Today, Tel Gezer’s location in a quiet, agricultural region gives little indication of its importance in history. But in ancient times, Gezer was a bustling crossroads. Gezer could be described as a city “in between.” To understand this, we need to zoom out and consider the geography of Gezer and the ancient world. To the west is the fertile, coastal plain that lies along the Mediterranean Sea. To the east are the foothills — the Shephelah — beyond which lie the mountains of Judea and, beyond them, the forbidding Arabian Desert. So Gezer lies “between” the desert and the sea. If we zoom out farther, we see Egypt, a technologically advanced world power southwest of Gezer.

  • Provisioning the Early Bronze Age City of Tell Es-Safi/Gath, Israel
    Arnold, E, et al. 2018 Provisioning the Early Bronze Age City of Tell Es-Safi/ Gath, Israel: Isotopic Analyses of Domestic Livestock Management Patterns. Open Quaternary, 4: 1, pp. 1–12, DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/oq.35 RESEARCH PAPER Provisioning the Early Bronze Age City of Tell es-Safi/Gath, Israel: Isotopic Analyses of Domestic Livestock Management Patterns Elizabeth Arnold*, Haskel Greenfield†, Gideon Hartman‡, Tina Greenfield§, Itzhaq Shai‖, Parryss Carter-McGee* and Aren Maeir¶ It is often assumed that domestic animals in early urban Near Eastern centres either are a reflection of the local pastoral economy, or were raised at a distance by pastoral specialists. In this paper, we test these assumptions through detailed isotopic analyses (carbon, oxygen and strontium) of caprines (sheep and goat) from Tell es-Safi/Gath, an Early Bronze Age urban centre in central Israel. The isotopic analyses demonstrate that the bulk of the caprines were raised within the general vicinity of the site, suggesting that the majority of food resources were largely produced at the local level, within the territory of the city-state, and not at a distance by specialised pastoralists. It is the rare specimen that comes from a great distance and would have entered the local system through long distance trade networks.

In fact, three of the Philistine cities have been excavated (Ashkelon, Ashdod and Ekron), and fascinating aspects of their culture have been revealed. Not too long ago, a monumental inscription was discovered at Ekron, mentioning a list of the kings of the city from the end of the Iron Age, just a few years before the Babylonian destruction (ca. 604 BCE). In spite of this work, until quite recently, with the beginning of our project, little was known about Goliath’s hometown, Gath. From the biblical text it would appear that Gath was the most important of the Philistine cities during the early period of Philistine history.
