  • Early Bronze Age Strata at Tell Ghanem Al-Ali Along the Middle Euphrates in Syria

    Open AccessToshio Nakamura, Mitsuo Hoshino et al.ARTICLERadiocarbon2010References: 5

    We collected charcoal fragments during an archaeological excavation at the Tell Ghanem al-Ali site, located on the lowest terrace of the middle Euphrates River, and measured their radiocarbon ages with accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). Two trenches, Square-1 and Square-2, were dug on the slope of the tell; 8 building levels were detected in the Square-2 trench. In total, 31 charcoal samples were collected from the 2 trenches, and their calibra…

  • The spatial organization of the Phoenician city of Amrith (Syria)

    Open AccessMichel Al Maqdissi, Christophe BenechARTICLEArchéoSciences2009

    The site of Amrith is located on the Syrian coast 6km south of the modern city of Tartous. More ancient occupation, from the end of the 3th millennium B.C., has been identified on the tell but Amrith is first of all known as a typical site of the Phoenician period in Syria. The site is believed to be a suburb of the city of Aradus on the neighboring island, today called Arwad. It is known primarily for its temple from the 6th century B.C., and it…

  • Sharaya

    Christophe Nicolle, Michel Al MaqdissiARTICLEPaléorient2006Cited by: 6

    One of the contributions made by a survey of preclassical sites begun in 2002 in the Leja (southern Syria) by a Syro-French team concerns the EB1a period (mid-4th millennium). Exceptional preservation permitted the mapping of a large part of Sharaya, a village that includes several dozen-apsidal houses. The initial description of this research presented here indicates how important this new information is for an understanding of the size of rural…

  • Labwe (Syrie)

    Michel Al Maqdissi, Michel Al‐maqdissi et al.ARTICLEPaléorient2006Cited by: 8

    Due to its special geological context and its specific soils, the basaltic region of southern Syria preserves exceptional architectural evidence. A three years survey (2003-2005) undertaken by a Syro-French team in the Leja area has revealed many Bronze Age sites, clarifying our understanding of the initial process of urbanization. Labwe is the most extraordinary of these sites. We have been able to make a complete plan of the urban site at the m…

    À partir des documents inédits des fouilles réalisées par R. Du Mesnil Du Buisson dans la cour du sanctuaire de Bel à Palmyre, l'auteur donne une description de l'évolution stratigraphique du site aux IIIe et IIe millénaires av. J.-C.
