Khirbat Khudash (Bet Arye)
Khirbat Khudash (Ḥudaš; modern-day Bet Arye), a small planned and fortified Iron Age IIB site with numerous oil presses, was discovered during a survey of the southwest Samaria Highlands by the author in 1979–1980 and subsequently excavated. The discovery and study of Khirbat Khudash, along with the nearby similar sites of Qla‘, Khirbat Deir Daqla and Kurnet Bir et-Tell—and their comparison to other Iron Age II rural settlements in southwest Sama…
Uninscribed Late Bronze and Early Iron Age stone weights Dor, Israel
Among hundreds of ground stones, four, exceptional, modified stone artefacts were uncovered in four phases during the excavations in Area G at Tel Dor. Three of the four stone items are defined here as uninscribed weights and one as a possible weight. One is dated to the Late Bronze Age and three to the early Iron Age. These are the only scale weights revealed during the extensive excavations at Tel Dor (apart from one Judaean weight of one sheqe…
Qlaʿ
Salvage excavations at Qlaʿ, a small fortified Iron IIB site in the southwestern Samaria Highlands, conducted in 1980, revealed several stone-built structures, numerous rock-cut olive-oil extracting installations and two large wine presses. In this article we present the main findings from this investigation, discuss technological and economic aspects of local production and evaluate the probability of royal ownership. In our opinion, the feature…
On Olive Oil and Perfume Production in Iron Age IIA Tell es Safi/Gath, Israel
The statement by Maeir and colleagues ‘that production of olive oil was a central aspect in the agricultural production in [Tell es-Safi/Gath] region already during the Iron I and Iron IIA’ (Maeir et al. 2020, 129) is being challenged here. The authors’ conclusions are examined by analysing the Iron Age IIA devices of Tell es-Safi/Gath, facing the development of olive oil production in Iron Age Israel. Perfume is the proposed alternative product …

An experimental approach to ground stone tool manufacture
The manufacture of ground stone tools has long been a topic of interest for archaeologists. Ground stone tools made of specific stone types (e.g., limestone, basalt, granite) have been investigated with regards to the technology chosen by craftsmen, the manufacturing process, working tools and tool mark analysis. Here, we present the results of an experimental study of the manufacture of a basalt mortar. In particular, the strategy we adopted in …
Late Epipalaeolithic Rock-Cut Installations and Groundstone Tools in the Southern Levant. Methodology and Classification System
Au Levant Sud, le mobilier en pierre a eu une importance majeure depuis l’Épipaléolithique. Toutefois, les études comparatives sur le sujet restent limitées et la recherche sur les installations creusées dans la roche est quasiment inexistante. Dans cet article, un système de classification de ces aménagements (et du mobilier en pierre) est proposé pour la première fois pour les périodes de l’Épipaléolithique récent au PPNA. Une méthodologie exha…
