    CuPAUAM 39, 2013, pp. 113-122 New Hypogeal Tomb with a “Phoenician” anthropoid sarcophagi on Tartus, Syrian Coast. Una nueva tumba hypogeo con sarcófago antropoide “Fenicio” en Tartus, en la costa de Syria. BASHAR MUSTAFA. Universidad de Granada Email: [email protected] Recibido: 02-07-2013 Aceptado: 15-10-2013 Abstract: In this paper, we report on a new tomb which was discovered on the coast of Syria, including the objects found within, such as, the sarcophagus and the entire funerary ensemble. The analysis of the construction system, primarily through drawings made in situ by the excavation team is considered one of most effective approaches to understand the tech- niques involved in this hypogeal tomb found on the Phoenician coast of Syria. A series of chronological data are pro- vided concerning the stylistic features of the tomb, with special mention of past looting. The study concludes with an overall assessment of the tomb and its contents. Keywords: Syrian, Phoenician, Persian, hypogeal tomb, anthropomorphic sarcophagi.

  • IAEA Progress Report II
    IAEA Progress Report II Contract number: 13266/Regular Budget Fund (RBF) Title of Project: “Study of archeological objects using PIXE analytical technique”. Institute: National Council for Scientific Research, Lebanese Atomic Energy Commission. Chief Scientific Investigator: Mohamad Roumié Time period: April 2006- May 2007 1- Introduction After adopting the PIXE one-run measurement using the Al funny filter as X-ray absorber which was described in the first progress report, two studies on ceramics were undertaken in order to be characterized based on their chemical composition. The first one concerned the characterization of 38 sherds from the locality of Ch'him (south of Beirut) that could help for future studies on ceramic provenance. Those samples are considered as reference materials as they are coming from kiln and workshop of the excavated site. The second study will be detailed in the current report. It concerned excavated pottery from Beirut, suspected to belong to North-Syrian production. 2- Archeological context The Anglo-Lebanese excavations in downtown Beirut (1994-1996: Sites BEY 006, 007 and 045) have yielded an archaeological sequence of deposits from the 5th century BC to the Medieval period. The pottery selected here for analysis is a representative sample of the wide range of coastal Syrian products that were imported during the Hellenistic to Byzantine periods (late 3rd BC to 5th century AD) for their contents (amphorae) as well as for their special functional roles (large basins, mortars and braziers). For the first time they have been identified as being of likely coastal north- Syrian origin. Both Ras al Basit and Amrit are likely to be the principal sources of these products.

  • The Achaemenid Impacts on the Levantine Architecture During the Fifth and Fourth Centuries B.C.E
    Journal of Anthropology and Archaeology December 2017, Vol. 5, No. 2, pp. 89-99 ISSN 2334-2420 (Print) 2334-2439 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jaa.v5n2a7 URL: https://doi.org/10.15640/jaa.v5n2a7 The Achaemenid Impacts On The Levantine Architecture During The Fifth And Fourth Centuries B.C.E. Hashem Mohammad Khries1, Ph.D. Abstract The architectural remains give a direct expression of people's history in every age; explain the extent of their technological competence, traditions, culture, ideological levels, and their relations. The practice of architecture is used to accomplish both functional and emotional requirements, and thus, it serves both technical and artistic aims. Although these two aspects may be distinguished, they cannot be separated. During the Persian rule, the Levantines did not deny their ancestors' building techniques and methods they knew in the earlier periods, rather than they continued to employ them with or without modifications. The Persians were also known to hire Greek architects for constructing their monumental buildings. The architectural and decorative elements of the palatial buildings erected at the Achaemenid capitals have inspired the Levantine architects, specifically the Phoenicians in their northern colonies. This article describes the Achaemenid influences on the technique and art of designing of buildings in the Levant as distinguished from the skills associated with construction. Keywords: Achaemenid Art; Architectural Ornaments; Building Techniques; Levant; Levantine Architecture; Persian Art. 1. Introduction The Levant is a historical and geographical term referring to a vast area of the central territories of the Fertile Crescent to the east of the Mediterranean Sea comprising Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Palestine nowadays.
