39 | Salvage Excavations At Tel Moza: The Bronze And Iron Age Settlements And Later Occupations, Zvi Greenhut, Alon De Groot

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The IAA excavations at Tel Moẓa, just outside Jerusalem, were initiated due to the relocation of the Jerusalem–Tel Aviv Highway, which stood to destroy all the antiquities along the new route. During three excavation seasons (1993, 2002–2003), 16 strata were defined, spanning the Pre-Pottery Neolithic period to the Ottoman period (the extensive Prehistoric finds are published elsewhere). This volume describes the finds from the Early Bronze Age onward, describing the pottery, glyptics and inscriptions, groundstone assemblages and other small finds. An outstanding discovery was a large silo complex of Iron IIB, leading the excavators to the interpretation that during this …

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Occupation at the site of Paneas, also known as Caesarea Philippi and Baniyas, spanned some 2300 years, from the establishment of a small sanctuary devoted to the cult of Pan in the Hellenistic period, to the prosperous Roman capital and polis Caesarea Philippi, and becoming a Christian pilgrimage site known as Paneas in the Byzantine period; following the Muslim conquest, a formidable fortress stood here during the Middle Ages, when the site was known as Baniyas, and finally a poor Ottoman village abandoned in modern times.

35 | Maresha Excavations Final Report Ii: Hellenistic Terracotta Figurines From The 1989–1996 Seasons, Adi Erlich, Amos Kloner

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This is the second volume in a series of final reports documenting the large-scale excavations at the site of Maresha, mainly in the Lower City, during the 1980s and 1990s. In the Hellenistic period, Maresha was an important and multi-cultural city. Hellenistic terracottas are a varied and widespread medium of Hellenistic art of a religious and cultic nature. The extensive repertoire presented here, mostly found in residential contexts during the excavations of the mid-1980s to 1996, opens a window onto the city’s culture, religion and daily life. It describes their typology as well as the production methods and techniques.


36 | The Necropolis Of Bet Guvrin–Eleutheropolisi, Gideon Avni, Talila Michaeli, Tamar Winter Jan 2008

36 | The Necropolis Of Bet Guvrin–Eleutheropolisi, Gideon Avni, Talila Michaeli, Tamar Winter

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This large cemetery is associated with the city of Bet Guvrin–Eleutheropolis in the Judean Shephelah, which began as a Jewish village, then transforming into a central Roma–Byzantine polis and administrative center. The cemeteries comprise varying types of burial caves hewn into the soft-limestone bedrock in dense clusters over a prolonged period of some 500 years. The architecture, symbols and artifacts, including pottery, ceramic oil lamps, glass and other small finds, enabled a chronological typology of the caves, reflecting the socioeconomic and ethno-religious standing of the mixed pagan, Jewish and Christian population of the city.
