A Roman-Period Jewish Peristyle House with a Miqweh at Caesarea Maritima
An example of a miqweh—the Jewish ritual bath—was uncovered in a Roman bathhouse located in the northwestern corner of a Roman villa of the peristyle type. This villa and its bathhouse, first built in the early first century CE, was dismantled early in the third century with the miqweh being maintained and even embellished. This fact indicates that wealthy Jews continued to flourish in the city even after the calamity caused by the Great Jewish R…
The Jerusalem Temple and the Temple Mount
The Temple eclipsed in its splendor and importance all other institutions of the Jews, both in the Land of Israel and in the Diaspora. It was the center of religious and national life; a goal of pilgrimage. Already in the 19th century, 'The Quest for the Temple' had spread beyond the limited circles of Jewish commentators, becoming an interest also of Christian scholars. The Dead Sea Scrolls, especially the Temple Scroll, first published in 1977,…
Revisiting the Mausoleum at Herodium
An attentive examination of the impressive finds of the mausoleum uncovered in 2007 in Herodium has demonstrated that these are not in accord with the characteristics of Herodian architecture as postulated by the late Prof. Ehud Netzer. The following four arguments show that this monument, which was indeed built by Herod, did not serve as his eternal resting place: • Its moderate dimensions.• The absence of an appropriate gateway to the burial gr…
Monastic Landscapes
This article considers the impact of late antique monasticism on the landscape in three regions of the eastern Mediterranean: Egypt, Palestine and Sinai. It investigates both new landscapes created by monasticism and older landscapes strongly modified by a monastic presence. In the case of new landscapes, monastic structures found in each locality are described, and then their articulation within the wider landscape is considered, in terms of: th…

More on the Hippodrome-Stadium of Caesarea Maritima
The Herodian multi-purpose entertainment structure under discussion is the earliest and largest of its kind to have been entirely excavated, and it will have far-reaching implications for our knowledge of the development of stadia and hippodromes at the transition between the Hellenistic and Roman worlds. The study and interpretation of its remains therefore deserve care and attention before definitive interpretations are presented and become ‘se…
The carceres of the Herodian hippodrome/stadium at Caesarea Maritima and connections with the Circus Maximus
The Herodian hippodrome/stadium at Caesarea was exposed between 1992 and 1998. It runs parallel to the shore between the Herodian harbour and the theatre, at the location specified by Josephus. Josephus refers to the structure as an amphitheatre but it is clear from him and from the archaeological evidence to be described below that equestrian events were an integral part of the games held in it. In the very late Republic and early Empire, the te…
