  • Holy Land Archaeology

    Open AccessEric M Meyers, Carol MeyersARTICLEBuried History The Journal of the…2024

    This paper discusses the ways the archaeological search for the past can be affected by the situation in an archaeologist’s present. This is especially true for projects in the “Holy Land,” where religious and political issues often play a role in site selection and inthe intepretations of finds. Excavations of five sites (BethAlpha, Hazor, Masada, Jerusalem, and Sepphoris) are examined as examples

  • Masada

    Jodi Magness, Masada: From Jewish Revolt to Modern Myth. Princeton: Princeton University Press, 2019. Hardback. Pp. xiii + 265, 46 illus. $ 29.95. ISBN 9780691167107.Masada was and remains for Israeli archaeology and Israeli society a symbol of national pride. That sense of pride is the direct result of the scope of excavations that enabled the site to become what it is and the acceptance of what it has come to mean, namely the “myth” of Jewish r…

    Open AccessEric M Meyers, Lisa P Nathan et al.ARTICLEFirst Monday2017

Children’s literacy groupware extends the notion of a digital library for children by providing value-added tools for teaching, monitoring, evaluating and encouraging young readers. We offer an analysis of two for-profit app-ba…

  • Remediating Tinker Bell

    Eric M Meyers, Julia P McKnight et al.ARTICLEJeunesse Young People Texts…2014

    The one-hundred-year trajectory of the mischievous Tinker Bell, from J. M. Barrie’s 1904 play Peter Pan, or the Boy Who Would Not Grow Up to the present-day Disney Fairies franchise, is a metanarrative of adaptation and remediation through which media and “childhood” can be seen to interrelate as mutually constitutive forces. With a focus on contemporary children’s narratives and media, this paper examines incarnations of this media franchise at …

  • Digital literacy and informal learning environments

    Eric M Meyers, Ingrid Erickson et al.ARTICLELearning Media and Technology2013

    New technologies and developments in media are transforming the way that individuals, groups and societies communicate, learn, work and govern. This new socio-technical reality requires participants to possess not only skills and abilities related to the use of technological tools, but also knowledge regarding the norms and practices of appropriate usage. To be ‘digitally literate’ in this way encompasses issues of cognitive authority, safety and…

    Eric M MeyersARTICLEBulletin of the American Schools…1995

    This response to Richard A. Horsley's call for dialogue between archaeologists and text-oriented New Testament scholars reflects the interest in such dialogue that has burgeoned in recent years. The article points out that between the late 1960s and the 1980s, the state of the art has changed dramatically. In the earlier period, archaeologists had little to guide them in the way of ceramic chronology and there was little history of scientific str…

  • Giscala (M.R. 191270)

    Eric M MeyersCHAPTERThe Anchor Yale Bible Dictionary1992

    The Greek name of a site located some 5 km N off Meiron in Upper Galilee. Its fame is due in part to the reputation of John ben Levi of Giscala who became an important leader of the First Jewish War against Rome in 68 c.e. (Josephus, Life 70–76; JW 2.590–92) and who challenged Josephus’ command in G

    The meeting place and prayer hall of the Jewish people since antiquity. During Second Temple times the term “synagogue” referred both to a group of people and/or a building or institution. Although these notions are not mutually exclusive, it is quite probable that at its inception the synagogue did

  • The Challenge of Hellenism for Early Judaism and Christianity

    Eric M MeyersARTICLEThe Biblical Archaeologist1992

    Hellenism is often viewed as a deliberate attempt to impose Greek ways on local cultures. However, it should not be viewed as a conflict or clash between cultures, but as the intersection of Greek civilization and language with existing cultures. By the first century C.E., most Near Eastern cultures had been deeply affected by Hellenism. How were Judaism and Christianity able to maintain their own values and culture in the face of this thriving w…
