The Byzantine and Early Islamic Near East
This volume revisits archaeological evidence from Syria, Palestine, the Arabian Peninsula, Iraq and Egypt describing a variety of land-use patterns and the development of a particular type of settlement across the Near East.

Khirbet al-Mafjar
Khirbet al-Mafjar is an Islamic monument near Jericho, famous for its mosaics, statues and stuccos of the Umayyad period. The site was excavated in the 1930s and 1940s. New excavations called the Jericho Mafjar Project are a joint venture by the Palestinian department and the University of Chicago. The present article demonstrates the process of hypothesis and excavations employed in the course of this research. The most recent season in 2015 fou…
Landscape signatures in Sasanian archaeology
These concluding remarks are intended to bring attention to two themes common to these papers. The first is that of landscape signatures, that is, patterns of regional development characteristic of new research in Sasanian archaeology. A second theme is beyond the new regional data; this is the importance of the traditional, yet curiously undeveloped, description of the Sasanian city. The papers make major contributions for both of these themes, …
Khirbat al-Mafjar and Its Place in the Archaeological Heritage of Palestine
Khirbat al-Mafjar is a well-known Umayyad palace complex located near Jericho. The monument is one of the most important cultural symbols of early Islamic archaeology in Palestine. This article discusses the site's initial association with the caliphate of Walid ibn Yazid in light of new excavations. Recent discoveries suggest the existence of an early Islamic agricultural estate and the potential for a new understanding of early Islamic qusur or…

Islamic Settlement and Chronology in Fars
Cet article est l'occasion d'une discussion supplementaire sur la morphologie des sites islamiques du bassin de la riviere Kur (Kur River Basin - KRB), dans la province iranienne du Fars, sur l'etude chronologique de la poterie faite par Andrew Williamson, et sur la premiere publication de la ceramique de Madabad, ceramique peinte non lustree decouverte sur quelques 58 sites de la region

Urbanism in Arabia
Quseir al-Qadim and the location of Myos Hormos
Two Glass Medallions
Des archeologues de l'Universite de Chicago ont decouvert a Aqaba en Jordanie deux medaillons en verre, l'un representant un cheval et l'autre une tete d'homme. Les deux sculptures sont datees des 7° et 8° siecles apres J.C. Durant cette periode la region connait des occupations egyptiennes et syriennes. Ces influences transparaissent dans l'art. L'article s'acheve par la presentation de ceramique pre islamique
Coptic Glazed Ceramics from the Excavations at Aqaba, Jordan
Le terme de ceramique glacuree copte semble approprie etant donne qu'il a vu le jour en Egypte. Cette ceramique trouvee ici a Aqaba manifeste la continuite de la tradition ceramique copte au debut des Omeyyades
Khirbet al-Mafjar Reconsidered
Khirbet al-Mafjar is important as a well published example of an early Islamic "desert castle." Using data that Baramki provided, the present study reworks this large corpus of Islamic ceramics deriving new stratigraphic information and a chronological framework for the Mafjar ceramic types in four periods: Period I, 750-800; Period 2, 800-850; Period 3, 900-1000; and Period 4, 1200-1400. Within the context of the depositional history of the pala…
