A Newly Discovered Tablet‐Making Facility in Nineveh
This paper addresses the question of tablet technology in the Neo‐Assyrian capital city of Nineveh. Recent excavations in the lower town of Nineveh by the Iraqi–Italian Archaeological Expedition uncovered an exceptional assemblage of more than 200 tablets from an elite residence that appears to have included a scriptorium. This study presents scientific analysis of five newly discovered tablets from this assemblage, and a clay lump from the same …

Pottery Making in the First Oases
The earliest known significant pottery production in Oman appears in the first oases of the Hajar mountains southern foothills during the Umm an‐Nar period (ca. 2700–2000 bc ) of the third millennium bc . Despite the history of ceramic research in southeast Arabia, the modalities of the establishment and organisation of this craft are little known because of limited excavations, stratigraphy and dating. Bat and Bisya are among the largest and ear…
Pottery craft in the early urban world
Tell Mishrifeh, ancient Qatna, is a prominent Syrian site founded c. 2700–2600 BCE during the urbanization of inner Syria in the Early Bronze Age (EB). Hypogeum IV was one of the first EB IV (2500–2000 BCE) structures excavated in the 1920s. This collective tomb yielded 292 vessels, mostly complete, 127 of which are preserved in the Musée du Louvre (France). This paper provides updated data on this exceptional pottery set that has not been studie…

The characterisation of ceramic production from the central Levant and Egyptian trade in the Pyramid Age
A recent petrographic study of ceramic jars from Giza imported into Egypt during the 4th Dynasty of the Pyramid Age (c. 2613–2494 BCE) identified the original production zone as the Lebanese coast generally between Beirut and Tripoli, including the region of Byblos. The jars and their contents were imported to Egypt by maritime trade expeditions conducted at the behest of the Egyptian state. This study analyses a selection of these ceramic sample…
Pottery production at Tell Arqa (Lebanon) during the 3rd millennium BC
Studying well-documented assemblages is key to enhancing our understanding of the long-term evolution of pottery production and distribution in Bronze Age Levant. As a contribution to this effort, this paper presents, for the first time, the results of petrographic analysis undertaken on the Early Bronze (EB) pottery assemblage from Tell Arqa (northern Lebanon). Macroscopic and thin-section analyses were performed on a large set of samples. Beyon…
