InscriptiFact
InscriptiFact is a specialized database application designed to provide Internet access for researchers to a broad range of image data and associated metadata with the focus on ancient inscriptions and artifacts from the Near East and Mediterranean. It is especially intended to serve as a permanent image resource to aid researchers in the reclamation of ancient works by giving them intuitive access to images that take full advantage of current (a…
An Abecedary of the Mid-Tenth Century B.C.E. from the Judaean Shephelah
Near the conclusion of the 2005 excavation season at Tel Zayit, Israel, the Zeitah Excavations recovered a large stone bearing an incised, two-line inscription. The special importance of the stone derives not only from its archaic alphabetic text (a 22-letter abecedary), but also from its well-defined archaeological context in a structure dating securely to the tenth century B.C.E. The borderland site of Tel Zayit lies in the lowlands district of…
The Amulets from Ketef Hinnom
This article represents a substantial revision and rereading of the two silver plaques found at Ketef Hinnom in 1979. Our new analysis of detailed, high-resolution images made by West Semitic Research reveals traces of letters that were not previously identified as well as clarification of letters that were previously much harder to read and identify. Based on our new analysis and reading of these texts, we can reaffirm with confidence that the l…
The Challenges of Ketef Hinnom
The two paleo-Hebrew Ketef Hinnom inscriptions are famous for being our oldest biblical manuscripts. (Yet they contain even more readings than the famous priestly blessing of Numbers 6.) The present analysis provides the most reliable readings to date. They clarify two points of dispute: the date and nature of the artifacts. The authors support the thesis that these inscriptions constitute amulets with apotropaic functions and date them to the en…
The Throne of ʿAshtart Inscription
The Throne of ʿAshtart is a small cherub throne carved from rough limestone and dating from the third or second century B. C. E. It was discovered in the vicinity of Tyre around 1907. A two-line inscription is carved on the front of the base. This inscription dedicates the throne to the goddess ʿAshtart. Until 1983, there existed no clear photographic documentation of the inscription. New photographs, published here for the first time, have promp…
