  • Arabia from the Hellenistic to the Late Roman/Byzantine Period

    Stephan G Schmid, Zbigniew T FiemaCHAPTEROxford Handbook of the…2025

    The region under consideration in this chapter includes the territories of southern Syria, Transjordan, southern Palestine, and the northwestern Arabian Peninsula.

  • Storing in the Church

    Zbigniew T FiemaARTICLELate Antique Archaeology2009

    Excavations of some Byzantine churches in Palestine and Jordan have revealed the existence of stored material in rooms adjacent to the churches. Room I of the Petra church yielded a particularly interesting corpus of material, ranging from papyrus scrolls through glass and metal objects to wooden storage furniture, which provided the opportunity for a detailed study of artefacts and their spatial relationships, both to each other and to their arc…

    The Mountain of Aaron (Jabal Haroun) near the ancient city of Petra, Jordan, is the traditional burial place of the Old Testament prophet and a site considered sacred by the three world religions of Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Since 1997, a Finnish archaelological project has been investigating the mountain through the excavations of a Byzantine pilgramage complex on its high plateau and an intensive survey of its surroundings. In the course…

  • A Second Nabataean Inscription from Tell esh-Shuqafiya, Egypt

    Richard N Jones, Philip C Hammond et al.ARTICLEBulletin of the American Schools…1988

    A second early Nabataean inscription from Tell esh-Shuqafiya, Egypt, is part of the established collection of the Matḥaf Hariyyat Raznah, Zagazig. Other information concerning the provenance of the inscription is vague or lacking. The inscription was written in Nisan, 36 B. C., and dated to the reigns of Cleopatra VII, Malichus I King of the Nabataeans, and a certain ʾṭlh, apparently a local priest. This unique triple dating also fixes the date o…

  • An Inscription from the Temple of Bel in Palmyra Reconsidered

    Zbigniew T FiemaARTICLEBulletin of the American Schools…1986

    Reconsideration of the trilingual inscription from the Temple of Bel in Palmyra, Syria, provides additional evidence of the stonemasons and sculptors employed there during the first and second centuries A. D. The inscription was placed on the top surface of the drum of the column, which was once situated in the southern peristyle of the temple cella. As published by Cantineau (1933) the Latin part was missing. The copy made during the 1981 Polish…

    Zbigniew T FiemaARTICLEJournal of the American Research…1985

    Among the finds discovered in 1976 during the archaeological excavations at Kom el-Dikka, Alexandria, Egypt, was the upper part of an amphora with a partially preserved handle and a Hebrew inscription incised on the outside surface.1 The vessel had been made of red-orange clay with little admixture and covered with cream-yellow slip on both sides. The finishing is rough, the handle rather ill-shaped, and the neck as well as the rim of the vessel …
