Rattle and Hum: A Reassessment of Closed-Form Rattles in the Southern Levant
Closed-form ceramic rattles are found throughout the southern Levant. Previous interpretations of these rattles focused primarily on their connection to music and the funerary cult. They overlooked the fact that rattles existed in household contexts, which links them to families and children. This study reassesses the ceramic rattles using an interdisciplinary approach centered on the family. It draws specifically upon household archaeology, anth…
The Case of Joseph’s Coat: Giving Gifts to Children in the Hebrew Bible
Joseph’s coat is one of the most recognizable garments in the Hebrew Bible. In The Gift, Marcel Mauss theorizes that a gift contains part of the giver’s social persona, thus requiring a counter-gift to be given. Drawing on Mauss’s work as a heuristic category, this study investigates the economy of gifts and counter-gifts in the Hebrew Bible using Joseph’s coat as a case study. Joseph’s age at the time he receives the gift and the seeming lack of…

Moses’s Slow Speech: Hybrid Identity, Language Acquisition, and the Meaning of Exodus 4:10
In changing our focus to examine the children and the childhoods of the characters in the Bible we can gain new insights into the biblical text. This essay applies childist interpretation to a question that has long puzzled scholars: What did Moses mean when he said: “I am heavy (כבד) of speech and heavy (כבד) of tongue” (Exod 4:10). Scholars have suggested it meant Moses had a speech impediment or that he lost his ability to speak Egyptian eloqu…
Childist Archaeology: Children, Toys, and Skill Transmission in Ancient Israel
While recognized as important contributors to the household, children remain a small part of ancient Near Eastern archaeology. If one goal of archaeology is to study at a micro/macro level theories of cultural dynamics, then that record remains incomplete, even flawed, without the inclusion of children. Children should not be simply an alternative focus of research, but need to be an integral part of all archaeologies. This study identifies a new…
(Un)Dressing Children in the Lachish Reliefs: Questions of Gender, Status, and Ethnicity
The Lachish reliefs offer a unique snapshot of Judean children in the eighth century BCE. Using the adult Judeans as a point of comparison, this article explores the display of gender, age, and possible ethnicity shown though dress and adornment. The study utilizes images taken with Reflectance Transformation Imaging (RTI) technology, which, with its ability to move and combine different light sources and the angles of these sources, creates high…

Growing Up in Ancient Israel: Children in Material Culture and Biblical Texts
"Growing Up in Ancient Israel uses a child-centered methodology to investigate the world of children in ancient Israel.
