THE ANCIENT POTTERY OF ISRAEL AND ITS NEIGHBORS from the Iron Age through the Hellenistic Period

Seymour Gitin, Editor

A new 'ceramic bible' these two volumes offer the first publication presenting a comprehensive corpus of ceramic types since Ruth Amiram's The Ancient Pottery of the Holy Land published in Hebrew in 1963 and in English in 1969. It is a unique resource, providing a typological discussion of ceramic types organized according to period, geographical region, and cultural tradition (volumes covering the Neolithic and Chalcolithic periods and the Bronze Age are in preparation). It is an essential resource for archaeologists and students of ancient Near Eastern studies, and it provides biblical scholars with archaeological/historical discussions of the periods of the United Monarchy, and of the following split into Israel and Judah as well as of the periods of the , Assyrians, Phoenicians, and Hasmoneans.
