Khirbat el-Hawarit
A large mound of pottery sherds was exposed on the northern slope of the hill on which Khirbat el-Hawarit is located. Excavation of the mound revealed that it contained the debris of a workshop: vessels broken during the firing process, kiln ash and bricks. Although only fragmentary walls were unearthed, precluding the reconstruction of any building, the dump in itself is sufficient to identify the site as the main pottery production center of Mo…
The Middle Maccabees
The present narrative of Seleucid dynastic history is written against a scholarly background that tended to emphasize the weakness of the kingdom beginning with the death of Seleucus I Nicator (316/12–281). But there had been repeated recoveries throughout the 3rd century, before the realm was thriving again under Antiochus III Megas (223–187). His defeat by the Romans in 191/90 was harsh, but no final blow, and his son Antiochus IV Epiphanes (17…

Phoenician Cedar Oil from Amphoriskoi at Tel Kedesh
Archaeologists and historians have routinely attributed “branded” goods to particular regions and cultural groups, often without rigorous analysis. Phoenician cedar oil is perhaps one of the best-known examples from antiquity. Hellenistic Tel Kedesh in the Upper Galilee region of the Levant is particularly relevant for these discussions by virtue of its strategic role as a border settlement in Phoenicia during one of the most dynamic periods in a…

A Persian Period Bulla from Tel Qedesh, Israel, and Its Implications for Relations between Tyre and Nippur
In the 1999 season of excavation at Tel Qedesh, in northern Israel, a small, perfectly intact stamped bulla dating to the Persian period was found. The bulla originally sealed a papyrus document. Thanks to its excellent preservation, it is possible to identify a series of key aspects of the object: the motif and type of seal used to stamp it, the way the bulla was created, and even the way in which the original document was folded and tied. These…
Herod the Tastemaker
Herod the Great was a political tyrant, architectural visionary, ruthless power broker — and innovative trend setter. In his palaces Herod introduced formal dining rooms, frescoed walls, mosaic floors, decorated table wares, and new cooking vessels for different recipes. Wealthy Jews from Galilee to Judea adopted all of these aspects of classical culture in the later first century b.c.e. The timing suggests that more than a long delayed cultural …
The Sanctuary at Mizpe Yammim
In 1986, four exceptional bronze votive objects were found within a tumble of rocks on the top of Mount Mizpe Yammim, in the Upper Galilee of Israel. Two seasons of excavation uncovered the foundations of a substantial stone platform and, on a lower terrace, a sizable walled enclosure and small temple. In this article, we present the results of a complete investigation of the site’s stratigraphy and architecture, along with descriptions, catalog,…

Jewish Life Before the Revolt
In this paper, I present material remains relevant to understanding Jewish life in Palestine in the century or so before the Revolt. These remains comprise tangible data by which Jewish praxis, actual behavior, as well as attitudes, can be identified and dated. From the early-mid first century B.C.E., Jews adopted what I call 'household Judaism'—using mikva'ot as well as locally manufactured oil, wine, and cooking vessels—in order to incorporate …
Pylos Regional Archaeological Project, Part VII
In this article, the authors explore patterns in regional activity in Messenia, the southwest corner of the Greek Peloponnese, from the Geometric to the end of the Late Roman period (ca. eighth century B.C. to seventh cen-tury A.D.). The analysis is based on extant historical evidence, the campaigns of the Minnesota Messenia Expedition, and—above all—the results of the Pylos Regional Archaeological Project. These three data sets have been integra…

Jebel Khalid on the Euphrates
A New Administrative Center for Persian and Hellenistic Galilee
We present the main findings of three excavation seasons at Kedesh. At the southern end of the lower mound we have uncovered an enormous Hellenistic building (56 m east-west by 40 m north-south), abandoned shortly after the middle of the second century B. C. E. and built over a Persian-period predecessor. The size, internal fittings, and especially the finds of the Hellenistic building-including on archive represented by 2043 stamped clay sealing…
Ptolemaic Agriculture, “Syrian Wheat”, and Triticum aestivum
Power and Its Afterlife
Jerusalem's enormous second temple period necropolis includes several dozen "display tombs"-elaborate rock-cut monuments that stand out on account of their size, workmanship, and prominent positions. Such structures, which first appear in the later second century BCE represent a significant shift in Jewish tomb architecture. Its genesis and context may be traced to the mid-second-century BCE political transformation of Jonathan from Maccabean reb…

The Roman Baths of Hammat Gader
The Archaeology of Ritual
From the third century B. C. through the fifth century A. D. a sanctuary to the Greek god Pan existed at the mouth of the Jordan River. At its founding, the sanctuary served as a rural shrine for the local pagan population; when it was abandoned, it had long been the city shrine of Caesarea Philippi, whose population included Jews and Christians. While the cult's longevity is generally seen as reflecting the stability of local religious life, fun…

From Monarchy to Markets
Outside of a few scattered inscriptions and historical references, little information exists concerning Phoenician activities in Hellenistic Palestine. Now, however, a ceramic ware of demonstrably late Hellenistic date and Phoenician (probably Tyrian) origin has been identified, along with the corpus of shapes produced in it and their various distributions. The ware is called Phoenician semi fine, and its distribution pattern reflects later secon…
