Memory and the City in Ancient Israel
Ancient cities served as the actual, worldly landscape populated by "material" sites of memory. Some of these sites were personal and others were directly and intentionally involved in the shaping of a collective social memory, such as palaces, temples, inscriptions, walls, and gates.

The essays published here are revised versions of papers presented in 2008 and 2009 in the section devoted to Israel and the Production and Reception of Authoritative Books in the Persian and Hellenistic Period at the annual meeting of the European Association of Biblical Studies.

Since the spelling of the final element varies in Hebrew, the meaning of the name is not certain. The spellings dōr (Josh 17:11), and dôr (1 Sam 28:7) would seem to derive from the Hebrew root
Jabesh-Gilead (Place)
[Heb yābāš gilʿād. Var. JABESH. An ancient city in Transjordan, which became part of the Israelite state during the early Monarchy, probably under David. Location The ancient name, which means “well-draining soil of Gilead,” is preserved in Wadi el-Yabis, one of the main E-W tributaries that cuts
