Classical Greek Measures and the Builder's Instruments from the Ma'agan Mikhael Shipwreck
Two wooden measuring instruments, a dual-standard builder's rule and a builder's square, were excavated in 1985 an ancient shipwreck off the coast of central Israel. The ceramic assemblage aboard dated the wreck to ca. 400 B.C.E. The preserved cargo was mostly stone, whose analysis indicated an origin in the Bay of Karystos, Euboea, and in the Kouris delta in southern Cyprus. The two instruments found on the shipwreck are the earliest preserved c…
Copper Sheathing and Painting with Orpiment at Elephantine Island (Fifth Century B.C.E.)
The earliest use of copper sheathing is attested in finds from shipwrecks of the second century B.C.E. The use of orpiment in encaustic painting of ships' hulls is found in the writings of Pliny. The former practice was primarily used to repair the hull, while the latter was a technique that served as an anti-fouling measure. Both of these procedures are attested in a papyrus from the Nilotic island of Elephantine (Yeb), which deals with repairs …

Migrations in the Ancient Near East
Human migrations in the ancient Near East are attested from the earliest historical times, and continue intermittently throughout the ages. The archaeological evidence for population movements is attested primarily by new pottery assemblages and changes in burial customs. In addition, ancient Near Eastern texts and the writings of the Classical historians provide rather extensive data on the extent of human dispersals in the ancient world. These …
The City of Amurru
The Geopolitics of the Phoenician Littoral in the Early Iron Age
At the end of the 13th century B. C., the land of Canaan was permanently transformed by a series of upheavals that ended the Canaanite Bronze Age. Only along a narrow coastal strip north of Akko-a region the Greeks termed Phoenicia-were Canaanites able to maintain their independence. There a remarkable rebirth took place, primarily in the harbors of Tyre, Sidon, Byblos, and Arwad, as those city-states succeeded in reasserting their maritime inter…
