    [RADIOCARBON, VOL. 13, No. 2, 1971, P. 412-419] REI-I®VOT RADIOCARBON MEASUREMENTS I I. CARMI, Y. NOTER, and R. SCHLESINGER Department of Isotope Research, Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel The Rehovot Radiocarbon Laboratory was established in 1968, as an extension of a low-level tritium laboratory, which has been in opera- tion many years. Intended to be a supporting facility in geohydrological studies, the laboratory now offers general services in carbon dating. For measurements, we use proportional gas counting of ethane, at 2100 torr. The sample counter is a modified RCL counter, of 1.1 L volume; it is operated at 5600 volts. The counter is surrounded, respec- tively, by a Johnston GRC-13 anticoincidence guard counter, 2 cm old lead, 10 cm boron loaded paraffin, and 25 cm pre-2nd-world-war steel. Samples are counted in four channels, in anticoincidence with the guard counter. The four channels count disintegrations between the following energies: channel l: 1 to 18 keV, channel 2: 18 to 59 keV, channel 3: 59 to 155 keV, and channel 4: above 155 keV. C14 is counted in the two middle channels; channel 1 is rejected against possible tritium con- tamination, and channel 4 is used to detect Radon contamination. The working point is determined by coincidence counting of charged cosmic particles: the ratio of count rates in the two sample channels is adjusted to 1. The acquisition and processing of counting data is done automati- cally by an on-line computer (Carmi and Ashkenazi, 1970). Background samples are prepared from alabaster or from anthracite.

    Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 An Exhibition and Public Program Touring Internationally, 2016-2017 Roee Rosen, still from Confessions Coming Soon, 2007, video. 8:40 minutes. Video, possibly more than any other form of communication, has shaped the world in radical ways over the past half century. It has also changed contemporary art on a global scale. Its dual “life” as an agent of mass communication and an artistic medium is especially intertwined in Israel, where artists have been using video artistically in response to its use in mass media and to the harsh reality video mediates on a daily basis. The country’s relatively sudden exposure to commercial television in the 1990s coincided with the Palestinian uprising, or Intifada, and major shifts in internal politics. Artists responded to this in what can now be considered a “renaissance” of video art, with roots traced back to the ’70s. An examination of these pieces, many that have rarely been presented outside Israel, as well as recent, iconic works from the past two decades offers valuable lessons on how art and culture are shaped by larger forces. Staring Back at the Sun: Video Art from Israel, 1970-2012 traces the development of contemporary video practice in Israel and highlights work by artists who take an incisive, critical perspective towards the cultural and political landscape in Israel and beyond. Showcasing 35 works, this program includes documentation of early performances, films and videos, many of which have never been presented outside of Israel until now. Informed by the international 1 history of video art, the program surveys the development of the medium in Israel and explores how artists have employed technology and material to examine the unavoidable and messy overlap of art and politics.

  • Waqf Endowments in the Old City of Jerusalem: Changing Status and Archival Sources
    chapter 25 Waqf Endowments in the Old City of Jerusalem: Changing Status and Archival Sources Salim Tamari The Old City of Jerusalem is unique in its predominance of endowed, or waqf, properties (public and family-based). At the end of the twentieth century, waqf properties in all categories totaled 1,781 units, or 54 percent of all proper- ties in the Old City.1 In terms of area, these properties amounted to 348 dunams (1 dunam = 0.247 acres), or about 66 percent of the total area of the Old City. One quarter of those were family endowments (waqf dhirrī), equivalent to 567 units or 84 dunams. The revenue of these endowments was assigned to both private and charitable purposes, which will be explained below. The task of finding accurate sources for interpreting the scope and character of these properties has been a major challenge for the historian. Court records and land registry archives have been plagued with problems of accessibility, shift- ing registration procedures, and proper bureaucratic organization of registered properties. An additional problem was the layers of leasing and subleasing of waqf properties, some of which were never registered. Since 1967, another prob- lem has emerged: the abuse of archaic legal categories of endowments by the State of Israel and its propensity to sequester waqf property on behalf of the state and settler groups. In this chapter I will examine how new archival sources can help to shed light on the extent and nature of these family and public endowments. These archival sources include municipal tax registries for Old City properties, aerial photography and on-site architectural surveys.
