15 | The Akhziv Cemeteries: The Ben-Dor Excavations, 1941–1944, Michal Dayagi-Mendels

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This volume presents the results of excavations in two Iron Age Phoenician cemeteries to the east and south of Tel Akhziv, excavated intermittently between 1940 and 1980. Most of the tombs are rock-hewn shaft tombs with a burial chamber. The finds, clearly belonging to the Phoenician cultural sphere, include a rich pottery repertoire, jewelry, amulets and a rich collection of terracotta figurines that provide a glimpse into the everyday life of the people interred here.

12 | Excavations At Efrata: A Burial Ground From The Intermediate And Middle Bronze Ages, Rivka Gonen

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This volume presents the results of the 1979 excavations at the site of Efrata, a hill on the Hebron–Jerusalem road. On the summit is a tumulus, and burial grounds of shaft tombs on the slopes were in use during the Intermediate Bronze Age (IBA) and Middle Bronze Age II (MB II). The hill was apparently an isolated cemetery intensively used by semi-nomadic pastoralists. The shaft tombs were first hewn during IBA, and after a short gap (MB I), reused in MB II. The pottery and small finds are presented, and analysis of the human remains indicates that the burials in …

11 | The Al-Ṣubayba (Nimrod) Fortress: Towers 11 And 9, Moshe Hartal

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This volume presents the results of the 1993 excavations in two towers at the impressive medieval ‘Al-Subayba (Nimrod) fortress in the Golan Heights, on the southern slopes of Mt. Hermon. It was built by the Ayyubids in the 13th century with the purpose of guarding a major access route to Damascus against armies coming from the west. It was later rebuilt as a palace and mosque by the Mamluks, and finally destroyed by an earthquake. The excavations cleared Tower 11 to facilitate the exit route to the postern gate. The history and building technology of the fortress are discussed.

13 | Tel Te’O: A Neolithic, Chalcolithic, And Early Bronze Age Site In The Ḥula Valley, Emanuel Eisenberg, Avi Gopher, Raphael Greenberg

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This multi-level site in the Ḥula Valley revealed a rare pre- and proto-historic sequence extending from the Pre-Pottery Neolithic period (PPNB), through the Pottery Neolithic period (PN), until it was finally abandoned in the Early Bronze Age II; it was again occupied during medieval times. The abundant water resources were the probable reason for the continued settlement here, despite the difficulties presented by the marshy environment.

The settlements were apparently small villages based on simple agriculture and husbandry throughout their existence, representing local variations of the known cultures of the various periods. The Chalcolithic settlement shows affinities with the Golan …

Historical Architectural Survey Report For Proposed Improvements, Susie Van Kirk

10 | The Synagogue At Korazim: The 1962–1964, 1980–1987 Excavations, Ze’Ev Yeivin

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The town of Korazim is of special interest to Christendom, and thus was frequently mentioned by scholars and travelers to the Holy Land. The identification of Korazim with Khirbat Karazeh is now almost universally accepted. The site was extensively surveyed and excavated in 1962–1964, under the direction of Ze’ev Yeivin on behalf of the Department of Antiquities. Based on these excavations, the layout of the town and the setting of the synagogue within it could be elucidated. In 1980­–1987, excavations at the site were resumed, during which some 30 probes were carried out in the synagogue and its vicinity.

The …

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The excavations at Ḥorbat Rosh Zayit were conducted following the survey of the Lower Galilee, as part of the Lower Galilee regional project, by Zvi Gal. The site’s full significance was only revealed in the excavations, which have contributed much data that enable the presentation of an historical-geographical synthesis. The rural Iron Age village of Stratum III was abandoned and a fort was established in Strat um II, at the highest spot on the hill overlooking the ‘Akko Plain. The rich assemblages of finds, including grinding stones and iron agricultural tools, as well as hundreds of storage jars in the …

9 | Monastic Settlements In South Sinai In The Byzantine Period: The Archaeological Remains, Uzi Dahari

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The early Byzantine period, especially the fourth–seventh centuries CE, saw the prosperity of a Christian monastic movement in South Sinai. This community was centered around Jebel Musa, which Christian tradition identified with Mt. Sinai. This study’s main aims are to present the relevant archaeological material, based on fieldwork carried out in the late 1970s, to publish all the sites defined as monastic settlements in South Sinai, and to provide a general picture of Sinai monasticism based on the archaeological data and historical sources. The historical sources are analyzed only when they contribute to our understanding of sites; the monastic way …

A Comparative Analysis Of Southern Nevada Municipalities, And Their Active Participation To Implement Historical Preservation, Rhonda M. Reeves

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

A comparative analysis of southern Nevada municipalities, and their active participation to implement historical preservation is the foundation of research for this paper. The city of Las Vegas and surrounding municipalities have varying preservation programs in place. The distinctions between the municipalities historic preservation programs foster little protection for the historic site itself in most cases. Historic preservationists are actively bringing to the attention of government the importance of preservation, and are seeking more and more action on the part of the government to implement historic preservation mandates and protection.

The federal government funding for historical preservation within states is …

5 | The Cave Of The Warrior: A Fourth Millenium Burial In The Judean Desert, Tamar Schick

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

During the survey of the caves in the Jericho area, Cave No. 13 revealed a uniquely well-preserved burial dating to the early 4th millennium BCE, accompanied by burial goods that have rarely been preserved elsewhere, due to the conditions of the cave. The middle-aged male buried together with a unique flint knife anda wooden bow and arrows, among other gifts, was termed the “Warrior”, although he may have been a hunter rather than warrior. Other perishable objects that so rarely survive the millennia include textiles, mats, a basket and leather sandals. A wide range of research topics, analyses and conservation …

3 | Villages, Terraces, And Stone Mounds: Excavations At Manḥat Jerusalem, 1987–1989, Gershon Edelstein, Ianir Milevski, Sara Aurant

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Following surveys and excavations in the area of the Rephaim Valley, within the framework of the Rephaim Valley Project, the valley was revealed to have been densely settled throughout the ages. The aims of the project were to document neglected archaeological remains such as villages, terraces and stone mounds––their chronology, ancient handicrafts and industries––and to attempt to view the overall settlement patterns in the area. This volume presents the excavations at Manaḥat.

Excavations in the stone mounds revealed that small farmsteads from MB I were later built upon by MB IIB village dwellings. Scarce remains of a LB II phase …

2 | Yiftaḥ’El: Salvage And Rescue Excavations At A Prehistoric Village In Lower Galilee, Israel, Eliot Braun

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

Large-scale excavations at the site of Yiftaḥ’el in Lower Galilee, revealed four strata: Strata IV–III representing a late Pre-Pottery Neolithic B (or PPNC) settlement, with some evidence of agriculture; some ephemeral remains of ‘pre-Stratum II’ phase consisting of pottery that can be equated with early Pottery Neolithic wares; Stratum II representing an extensive, well-preserved ‘Early Northern EB I’ village of curvilinear buildings with an apparent emphasis on husbandry; and Stratum I comprising a rather enigmatic phase that could fall within EB I, MB I or MB II.

Yiftaḥ’el II is further discussed as an exponent of an early northern EB …
