29 | Gamla I: The Pottery Of The Second Temple Period, The Shmarya Guttman Excavations, 1976–1989, Andrea M. Berlin Jan 2006

29 | Gamla I: The Pottery Of The Second Temple Period, The Shmarya Guttman Excavations, 1976–1989, Andrea M. Berlin

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This is the first of a series of volumes publishing the results of the excavations of the late Shmarya Gutmann at Gamla. Gamla is located on a high, precipitous rocky spur in the southern Golan Heights. It is the best preserved and most extensively excavated Jewish site of the late Second Temple period in northern Israel. Settlement came to an end in 67 CE, and the site was never resettled. This first volume presents an in-depth study of the pottery assemblages from the Hellenistic and Roman periods, which reflect all the many and varied aspects of every-day life at the …


28 | The Tel Bet Yeraḥ Excavations, 1994–1995, Nimrod Getzov Jan 2006

28 | The Tel Bet Yeraḥ Excavations, 1994–1995, Nimrod Getzov

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This is the final report of the IAA salvage excavations at the tell during 1994–1995, which revealed occupation strata from EB I–EB III and the Hellenistic period. The finds from each period are presented separately, along with observations on the settlement history of the Early Bronze Age in northern Israel.


27 | Shoham (North): Late Chalcolithic Burial Caves In The Lod Valley, Israel, Edwin C.M. Van Den Brink, Ram Gophna Dec 2005

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 Sep 2005

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.


25 | Tel Yoqne‘Am: Excavations On The Acropolis, Miriam Avissar Jan 2005

25 | Tel Yoqne‘Am: Excavations On The Acropolis, Miriam Avissar

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

The acropolis of Yoqne‘am is occupied by an enclosure that is considered to be the remains of a Crusader fortress. The IAA excavations here explored the remains of the Crusader, Mamluk and Ottoman periods in three main areas: inside the enclosure, the connection with the Crusader church, and in one of the corner towers. This volume presents the architecture and stratigraphy of the site, as well as the pottery, coins, glass and other small finds, such as oil lamps and clay tobacco pipes.

24 | Ashdod Vi: The Excavations Of Areas H And K (1968–1969), Moshe Dothan, David Ben-Shlomo

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This is the sixth and final volume of the Ashdod Excavation Project, and publishes the excavations that took place in Areas H and K, some 35 years after the excavations were completed. This volume documents the stratigraphy and building remains, as well as the material culture of these two areas, mainly the pottery, coins, flint, metal and stone finds, as well as jewelry and stamp-seal amulets.


23 | Bronze And Iron Age Tombs At Tell Beit Mirsim, Sara Ben-Arieh Dec 2004

23 | Bronze And Iron Age Tombs At Tell Beit Mirsim, Sara Ben-Arieh

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

These excavations took place in the necropolis of this long-occupied tell in the Judean Shephelah, which existed from the Early Bronze Age III, through the Middle Bronze and Late Bronze Ages and into the Iron Age II. 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 Dec 2003

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 Jul 2003

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, …


17 | Maresha Excavations Final Report I: Subterranean Complexes 21, 44, 70, Amos Kloner Jan 2003

17 | Maresha Excavations Final Report I: Subterranean Complexes 21, 44, 70, Amos Kloner

IAA Reports—Monograph Series of the Israel Antiquities Authority

This is the first of the series of final reports on the excavations at the Hellenistic city of Maresha, and documents the work in the extensive man-made subterranean complexes below the lower city during the 1980s. Three subterranean complexes are presented here (70, 21, 44–45), including the study of their architecture, pottery and small finds and the industries that took place there. Chapters 1 and 2 present the setting of the site and review previous excavations, while Chapter 9 summarizes all the data in order to present a human face for the finds uncovered here.


16 | Kissufim Road: A Chalcolithic Mortuary Site, Yuval Goren, Peter Fabian Dec 2002

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 …
