27 | Shoham (North): Late Chalcolithic Burial Caves In The Lod Valley, Israel, Edwin C.M. Van Den Brink, Ram Gophna

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The IAA salvage excavations at Shoham in the Lod Valley revealed four interconnected karstic caves that were used for burial as well as domestic purposes during the Chalcolithic period and the Early Bronze Age I and Intermediate Bronze Age. They are part of an entire system of cemeteries located within the karstic caves in the limestone foothills of the region. The finds include rich assemblages of burial goods, particularly the ceramic ossuaries of the Chalcolithic period. The finds enable a better understanding of Chalcolithic mortuary behavior in the region, and the relationship between the settlements and the cemeteries––the living and …

26 | Pottery Of The Crusader, Ayyubid, And Mamluk Periods In Israel, Miriam Avissar, Edna J. Stern

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This volume presents the pottery from the late medieval periods of the 12th to 15th centuries (Crusader, Ayyubid, Mamluk periods) from excavations in Israel, and is basically a handbook for archaeologists that reflects the state of research up to 2004. During this time span, the borders were very dynamic, and often the only apparent differences in the pottery assemblages were in the relative frequencies of the different types: while local wares often continued regardless of political changes, imported wares reflected commercial connections that changed dramatically.

Thousands of pottery vessels and other rich finds were revealed. This volume presents the excavation and finds from the 15 best-preserved tombs and their grave goods, dating to MB I, MB II, LB II and Iron II, and discusses the relation of the tombs to the occupation on the tell.

19 | The Neolithic Site Of Abu Ghosh, Hamoudi Khalaily, Ofer Marder

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Excavations at the Neolithic site of Abu Ghosh in the Jerusalem Hills uncovered two periods: the Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (PPNB) and the Pottery Neolithic (PN). This volume documents the results of the excavations of villages of these two consecutive periods, including architecture, lithics, groundstone, pottery, small finds and fauna. The PPNB village comprised domestic structures, courtyards, plaster floors and enclosing fences. Domestic activities took place in the courtyards. The PN village layout is less clear, as it was dug into the earlier remains. The faunal analysis reveals evidence of incipient domestication of wild goats in the PPNB assemblage, and by …

18 | Salvage Excavations At The Early Bronze Age Site Of Qiryat Ata, Amir Golani

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Some 1400 sq m were exposed in the IAA excavations of the protohistoric site of Qiryat Ata. The study of the paleogeography reveals this location was an optimal area for exploitation of natural resources, including alluvial valleys, coastal habitats and forests, with stable water sources and extensive available farmland. The site yielded a wealth of stratified, well-dated architecture in a chronological sequence within the Early Bronze Age, illustrating the development from EB IB curvilinear structures, to late EB IB rectilinear forms with rounded corners, and finally EB II angular-cornered rectilinear buildings in a large, dense, urbanized town. The rich pottery, …

16 | Kissufim Road: A Chalcolithic Mortuary Site, Yuval Goren, Peter Fabian

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This volume describes the results of the excavation of a unique mortuary site in the northwestern Negev, which differs from Chalcolithic cave-burial sites known in the coastal plain and northern Israel, and the stone circles known from a few sites in the northwestern Negev and southern Transjordan. The excavations revealed a mortuary site containing some 54 individuals, both children and adults, in secondary burial in ceramic ossuaries, urns, jars, bowls and ceramic and stone burial tubs. Individuals were interred in a rectangular mud-built funerary structure, surrounded by a number of individual pit burials and a collective burial in a large …
