Material Aspects of Achaemenid Polychrome Decoration and Jewellery
L'interet pour la couleur dans les domaines de l'architecture, des arts appliques et des textiles est apparent dans ce qui subsiste de l'artisanat achemenide. La recente publication des bijoux polychromes appartenant a la famille Shumei est l'occasion d'un reexamen des origines et des caracteristiques de ce type de bijouterie, longtemps considere comme la marque de l'art iranien a ses debuts

Our Past Matters
The volume under review contains a much needed synthesis of the major industries and technologies of the ancient Near East. Although the geographical emphasis is on Mesopotamia, the author's range extends from Anatolia to the Indus Valley and from central Asia to the Arabian Peninsula. The chronological focus is on the Bronze and Iron Ages within the above regions. The book is an indispensable guide to the archaeological discoveries, physico-chem…

New Analyses of Old Babylonian Metalwork from Tell Sifr
Both PRSM and JEC would like to put on record their respect for and gratitude to Lady Mallowan and Professor Wiseman, on the occasion of their 80th and 70th birthdays respectively, both of whom have not only made significant contributions to Mesopotamian studies but have also done so much to further the work of the British School of Archaeology in Iraq. Their services to the School, over many years and sometimes in difficult circumstances, have e…

The Chalcolithic hoard from Nahal Mishmar, Israel, in context
The earlier fourth millennium BC hoard of over 400 copper objects and thirteen of other materials discovered in 1961 in a cave in the Nahal Mishmar, west of the Dead Sea in Israel, is of worldwide significance for the earliest history of copper metallurgy. This paper, in seeking to make the hoard's significance more explicit, argues that it is all the product of settlements in the northern Negev of Israel probably obtaining their copper from mine…

Pre‐islamic Ceramic Glazes at Kish and Nineveh in Iraq
S Chemical analyses (mainly by XRF) have been made of a series of glazed pottery vessels and sherds excavated from Kish and Nineveh in Iraq, manufactured between c. 600 b.c. and a.d. 600 (also a small Islamic group from Hira). The results strongly suggest, contrary to general assumption, that lead glazing was not practised in this area at this time; that the local glazing tradition persisted unchanged for 1200 years; and that the production at di…

Copper and Copper Alloys in Ancient Iraq, Syria and Palestine
S In a pilot‐programme to increase evidence for the history of copper‐alloying in ancient Iraq, Syria and Palestine 128 objects in the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, were tested with a point‐source linear X‐ray spectrometer for tin, arsenic and antimony. These analyses showed the gradual introduction of tin‐copper alloys into Iraq after ca . 2750 b.c. (Early Dynastic IIIA), into Syria a little later and into Palestine by the end of the third millenniu…

Copper and Copper Alloys in Ancient Turkey
S This note presents some new analyses for 13 early copper and bronze artefacts from Turkey in the Collection of the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford. They were not included in a small programme of early copper and bronze objects from Iraq, Syria and Palestine (Moorey and Schweizer 1972, Archaeometry 14 (2), 177–198) and conclude this pilot‐project

The "Plano-Convex Building" at Kish and Early Mesopotamian Palaces
In the main publication of excavations by the ‘Weld-Field Expedition to Mesopotamia’ at Tell Uhaimir little attention was paid to work in area ‘P’. In his account of the 1923–4 season's work Langdon published the headless statue found on the site and referred briefly to the ‘Old Sumerian Palace’ where it had been excavated. Later Mackay recorded that two buildings were examined in the area, one as large as palace ‘A’, but probably earlier. Much o…

A Bronze 'Pazuzu' Statuette from Egypt
In 1892 the Rev. G. J. Chester presented to the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, a freestanding figure in bronze of an Assyrian demon, which he said came from San el-Hagar, a small fishing village close to the mound of Tanis in the Egyptian Delta. Recently, when this figure was cleaned for the first time, a badly corroded inscription in Aramaic or Phoenician characters was revealed down the outside of each leg. Fortunately, it was still possible to make…

Some Aspects of Incised Drawing and Mosaic in the Early Dynastic Period
One of the most distinctive, if comparatively minor, characteristics of craftsmanship in the Early Dynastic period in central and southern Mesopotamia was the prevalence of incised drawing on stone, shell and baked clay. Since much of the work was small scale and often on very friable objects their survival is the more remarkable and clearly reflects a significant aspect of craftsmanship in the Sumerian period which did not survive the establishm…

Cemetery a at Kish
Ernest Mackay's excavations on behalf of the Oxford(Weld)-Field Museum Expedition to Mesopotamia on mound A at Kish (1923–25) were published with exemplary speed and in considerable detail, though the author made clear in his account the very real difficulties involved in establishing the integrity of the grave-groups he was reporting. Unfortunately the publication of the cemetery, in two successive parts, is not consistent. Mackay chose to assem…
Pictorial Evidence for the History of Horse-Riding in Iraq before the Kassite Period
The problems involved in any attempt to elucidate the earliest history of the domesticated horse in the Near East are notorious; an enormous literature already bears witness as much to the popularity as to the complexity of the subject. After over a century's research and argument there is still no certainty, nor even a general agreement, about where and when the animal first appeared in the area, who brought it and what it was first used for. Th…

The Loftus Hoard of Old Babylonian Tools from Tell Sifr in Iraq
Although W. K. Loftus is best remembered today for his pioneer excavations at Susa and Warka, one of his most remarkable single discoveries was made in April, 1854, at Tell Sifr in Iraq. For the first three months of the year, accompanied by Boutcher as artist, he had been engaged on excavations at Warka sponsored by the Assyrian Excavation Fund. He then moved his expedition to Senkara (Larsa), a site fifteen miles south-east of Warka, called to …

Ancient near Eastern Seals at Charterhouse
The small collection of ancient Near Eastern seals in the school museum at Charterhouse was called to our attention by the kindness of Mr. Ian Blake. It was assembled in the nineteenth century through two gifts, that of D. G. Prinsep in 1876 (eight cylinders) and that of Leonard Marshall in 1896 (sixteen cylinders and five Sassanian stamp seals). No information has survived about the exact source of these seals, though, as will be seen, they migh…
