Distinguishing bioturbation and trampling using pottery sherd measures, Tell Fendi, Jordan
In the Levant, the blind mole-rat (Spalax ehrenbergi) is responsible for much disturbance at archaeological sites, but its potential destructiveness is often ignored when cultural remains are interpreted. The effects of mole-rat burrowing on artifact distributions were evaluated through a study of mole-hill contents and by doing a vertical particle-size analysis of ceramic materials drawn from Tell Fendi, a Late Chalcolithic (6600–5500 B.P.) site…

Tulaylat Ghassul: An Appraisal of Robert North's Excavations (1959–60)
Tulaylat Ghassul is an important Chalcolithic period (c. 4600–3600 BC) site that has been excavated periodically since 1929. Robert North of the Pontifical Biblical Institute conducted excavations there for one season (1959–60) and reported his findings in 1961. This study reviews his publication and discusses the archaeological materials excavated. Emphasis is placed on understanding the sequence of events and the use of domestic space through a…
The Unitary Association Method of Relative Dating and Its Application to Archaeological Data
Further Investigations as to the Relationship of Samarran and Ubaid Ceramic Assemblages
The Samarran ceramic assemblage of the Mesopotamian region has long remained an enigma. With the exception of the work of Braidwood et al. and Oates, the nature of the relationship between Samarran and other contemporary Mesopotamian and Iranian styles has not been systematically explored. This paper begins by challenging contemporary perceptions of the Samarran “culture” and continues by investigating the relationship of Samarran wares to those …
