  • Dating of Iron Age Agriculture in the Negev Highlands

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2017•Citada por: 2•Referências: 3

    In this response to the reply by Shahack-Gross and Finkelstein (2017), we present additional data of our research at Horvat Haluqim. This includes phytolith percentages and multicellular phytolith stomata in a thin section of a layer in Terraced Field 12, dated by radiocarbon ( 14 C) to the Late Bronze–Early Iron Age. We also show thin-section evidence of aggrading sediment laminations in this terraced field. A new 14 C date is given of the Early…

  • Iron Age Agriculture − A Critical Rejoinder to “Settlement Oscillations in the Negev Highlands Revisited

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2017•Citada por: 2•Referências: 30

    Shahack-Gross and Finkelstein (2015) further developed their theory, based on microarchaeology, that there was no agriculture in the Negev Highlands during the Iron Age. We critically evaluate their article in this rejoinder and propose that their conclusion is an example of overinterpretation from a small amount of indirect data. Based on phytoliths in two courtyards and a few rooms, i.e. structures not related to farming, they construed the abs…

  • The Minoan Santorini Eruption and its 14 C Position in Archaeological Strata

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2017•Citada por: 2•Referências: 22

    The volcanic mega event of the Minoan Santorini eruption constitutes a time anchor in the 2nd millennium BCE that is inherently independent of archaeology and political history. It was a geological event. Yet the dimension of time in geology is not different than in archaeology or human history. Why then does archaeological dating usually place the Minoan Santorini eruption in the 18th Dynasty around 1500 BCE, whilst radiocarbon dating of the vol…

  • Ancient Environment and Human Interaction at Tell eṣ-Ṣâfi/Gath

    Oren Ackermann, Noam Greenbaum et al.•ARTICLE•Near Eastern Archaeology•2017•Referências: 5

    An archaeological site is an integral part of its surrounding landscape. This is one of the main novel approaches in the long-term archaeological project of Tell eṣ-Ṣâfi/Gath. The site has interacted with its surrounding for more than three thousand years. It was impacted by the ancient environment, but also had an impact on both the ancient environment and current conditions. The following is a summary of environmental research that has been car…

    An olive branch is traditionally a symbol of peace, but not necessarily in the context of chronological problems in the Eastern Mediterranean region and the Near East during the second millennium BC. Cherubini et al. (above) strongly attack the radiocarbon dating by Friedrich et al. (2006) of an ancient olive branch, buried by volcanic tephra during the Minoan Santorini eruption. The criticism stems from their investigation of growth rings in mod…

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht et al.•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2012•Citada por: 1•Referências: 36

    Traditional archaeological approaches in the central Negev Desert used to employ excavation techniques in post-prehistoric periods in which stratigraphy is based on architecture, while material culture forms the basis for dating assessment and chronology. Such an approach was understandable, as it focused on the most visible remains of past human habitation. However, the detailed habitation record is in the soil rather than in the walls. Moreover…

    In this paper, we present an overview of radiocarbon dating contributions from Groningen, concerning 9 sites from around the Mediterranean region: Israel, Sinai (Egypt), Jordan, Spain, Tunisia, and Italy. Full date lists of the 9 sites are presented. Our 14 C dates are discussed in terms of present actual chronological debates. We show that all our 14 C dates coherently support a “high chronology” for the Iron Age in each respective area of the M…

  • The Minoan Santorini Eruption and Tsunami Deposits in Palaikastro (Crete)

    Deposits from the Minoan Santorini (Thera) eruption in the eastern Mediterranean region constitute the most important regional stratigraphic marker in the chronological perplexity of the 2nd millennium BCE. Extensive tsunami deposits were discovered in Crete at the Minoan archaeological site of Palaikastro, containing reworked volcanic Santorini ash. Hence, airborne deposition of volcanic ash, probably during the 1st (Plinian) eruption phase, pre…

    An important archaeological survey was conducted by Leonard Woolley and T E Lawrence in 1914 on behalf of the Palestine Exploration Fund in the Negev and northeastern Sinai deserts—the “Wilderness of Zin.” The region of Ain Kadeis, associated by some scholars in the 19th century with biblical Kadesh-Barnea, received much attention in their survey and discussions. Concerning the vexed question of Kadesh-Barnea, Woolley and Lawrence gave their pref…

  • Radiocarbon Dating in Near-Eastern Contexts

    Open Access•Johannes Van Der Plicht, Hendrik J Bruins•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2001•Citada por: 15•Referências: 36

    Near-Eastern archaeology has long remained oblivious to radiocarbon dating as unique historical calendars brought about a perception that 14 C dating is superfluous. Circular chronological reasoning may occur as a result. There is now strong 14 C evidence that the early part of Egyptian history seems older than age assessments currently in vogue among scholars. It is vital to apply systematic and high-quality 14 C dating to each and every excavat…

  • The Thera olive branch, Akrotiri (Thera) and Palaikastro (Crete)

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Antiquity•2014•Citada por: 3•Referências: 12

    An olive branch is traditionally a symbol of peace, but not necessarily in the context of chronological problems in the Eastern Mediterranean region and the Near East during the second millennium BC. Cherubini et al. (above) strongly attack the radiocarbon dating by Friedrich et al. (2006) of an ancient olive branch, buried by volcanic tephra during the Minoan Santorini eruption. The criticism stems from their investigation of growth rings in mod…

  • Dating of Iron Age Agriculture in the Negev Highlands

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2017•Citada por: 2•Referências: 3

    In this response to the reply by Shahack-Gross and Finkelstein (2017), we present additional data of our research at Horvat Haluqim. This includes phytolith percentages and multicellular phytolith stomata in a thin section of a layer in Terraced Field 12, dated by radiocarbon ( 14 C) to the Late Bronze–Early Iron Age. We also show thin-section evidence of aggrading sediment laminations in this terraced field. A new 14 C date is given of the Early…

  • Iron Age Agriculture − A Critical Rejoinder to “Settlement Oscillations in the Negev Highlands Revisited

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2017•Citada por: 2•Referências: 30

    Shahack-Gross and Finkelstein (2015) further developed their theory, based on microarchaeology, that there was no agriculture in the Negev Highlands during the Iron Age. We critically evaluate their article in this rejoinder and propose that their conclusion is an example of overinterpretation from a small amount of indirect data. Based on phytoliths in two courtyards and a few rooms, i.e. structures not related to farming, they construed the abs…

  • The Minoan Santorini Eruption and its 14 C Position in Archaeological Strata

    Open Access•Hendrik J Bruins, Johannes Van Der Plicht•ARTICLE•Radiocarbon•2017•Citada por: 2•Referências: 22

    The volcanic mega event of the Minoan Santorini eruption constitutes a time anchor in the 2nd millennium BCE that is inherently independent of archaeology and political history. It was a geological event. Yet the dimension of time in geology is not different than in archaeology or human history. Why then does archaeological dating usually place the Minoan Santorini eruption in the 18th Dynasty around 1500 BCE, whilst radiocarbon dating of the vol…

  • Ancient Environment and Human Interaction at Tell eṣ-Ṣâfi/Gath

    Oren Ackermann, Noam Greenbaum et al.•ARTICLE•Near Eastern Archaeology•2017•Referências: 5

    An archaeological site is an integral part of its surrounding landscape. This is one of the main novel approaches in the long-term archaeological project of Tell eṣ-Ṣâfi/Gath. The site has interacted with its surrounding for more than three thousand years. It was impacted by the ancient environment, but also had an impact on both the ancient environment and current conditions. The following is a summary of environmental research that has been car…
