Sculptural Fragments of the Furniture from the Crusader Church at Beth Guvrin
Presumably, in the third quarter of the 12th century the Hospitallers erected a church in their castle of Beit Gibelin. During the excavations conducted on the site, sculptural fragments belonging to a set of church furniture were found. The article examines these fragments and proposes the dating and the historical context. It discusses the plastic manner and the repertoire of decorative forms and ornamental motifs in comparison with the co-temp…

Maresha Excavations Final Report III
This is the third volume in the series of final reports on the extensive IAA excavations in the Lower City of Maresha during 1989–2000. A short report is given of the excavation of the complexes in which the epigraphic material was found. The epigraphic material includes Semitic ostraca, vessel and ostraca graffiti, and Greek-inscribed altars. Also described here are lead weights, their production, standards and historical implications. The proce…

Aramaic Scribal Exercises of the Hellenistic Period from Maresha
In the excavations at Maresha, parts of four bowls with 16 inscriptions written on both the interior and exterior were found. This article discusses seven inscriptions written on two bowls by different hands, thus identified as scribal exercises, in a cursive Aramaic script of the late third or the beginning of the second century B.C.E. The inscriptions on Bowl A include part of a wisdow text, a registration of a daily harvest, and an account. Bo…
Mesillot on the Arnon
The impressive remains of an ancient road in Moab, which Nelson Glueck saw in an aerial photgraph and thought to be the Roman road crossing the deep gorge of Wadi Mujib from north to south, was discovered recently in Wadi Nukheila, the southern tributary of Wadi Mujib, about 12 km south-southeast of where Glueck identified it. The method by which the road was constructed, the ceramic evidence from the main structure guarding the crossing of the w…
The Sataf Project of Landscape Archaeology in the Judaean Hills
The preliminary report on four seasons of archaeological reconnaisance at Sataf (1987–89) in the central highlands of Palestine. Evidence is presented showing settlement and landscape modifications from the protohistoric through to late Ottoman/modern periods. It is now quite clear, as a result of this project of landscape archaeology, that the excavation of agricultural terraces can provide significant stratigraphic information and dating eviden…
The “Third Wall” in Jerusalem and the “Cave of the Kings” (Josephus War v 147)
The identification and dating of this wall, first studied by Robinson in 18381 and the excavation of it by Sukenik and Mayer in 1925–1927 and in 1940s is a subject of much controversy and has been the cause of fierce debate for over sixty years. At times, the argurnents left the field of archaeological-historical discussions.
