Book Description
During 1977 and 1978 the Meiron Excavation Project moved north from its excavations at Khirbet Shema and Meiron, excavating at the site of the synagogue at Gush Halav. With only very limited areas available for excavation, the team nevertheless was able to extract significant information for the history of Galilean synagogues. The synagogue here had a unique form, with spatial elements that have few if any parallels elsewhere. This publication will thus be of great importance for the history of Galilee in the first millennium C.E. and for the development of synagogue architecture and its relationship to the culture of the region in general.

Excavations at Tiberias, 1989-1994
Author: Yizhar Hirschfeld
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
The excavations conducted in Tiberias from 1989 to 1994 focused on two main sites within the boundaries of the ancient city. Part one of this excavation report deals with the first site - that in the area of the Sewage Processing Plant at the foot of Mount Berenice, 200m west of the Sea of Galilee. Part two deals with the second site, which comprises the two hills crowning the summit of Mount Berenice. The Sewage Processing Plant site yielded finds dating from the Late Roman Period to the Crusader Period and Middle-Ages. The main finds include a large structure from the Roman-Byzantine periods, situated below remains of dwellings from the Abbasid-Fatimid periods. Chapters are set out to include the mosaics; the pottery and small finds; numismatic finds; glass and metal objects; and a bone figurine. The reports from Site Two include a section of the city wall of Tiberias and the remains of hospice and monastery buildings. Further chapters again present the architectural remains; pottery and small finds; the numismatic finds; the marble finds; the Early Bronze Age 1 pottery; and the anthropological remains.

Holy Land. Archaeology on Either Side
Author: AA. VV.
Publisher: Edizioni Terra Santa
ISBN: 8862408501
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 411
Book Description
The title of the volume may be a little perplexing: Archaeology on Either Side. But on either side of what? The picture we chose for the front cover might give an indication of the answer. This image shows two sides of the River Jordan – the Israeli side and the Jordanian side – both part of the Holy Land! Or we might understand the “either side” of our topic in another way, that is, archaeology both as the study of artifacts and archaeology as the study of literary sources. In the contributions the reader will find all these topics and much more: essays on excavations or archaeological findings in the Holy Land as defined above, and essays on literary sources linked to the history of the ancient Near East, especially in the time of the Christian/Common Era (CE). The book is made up of three main sections: “Excavations and Topographical Surveys”; “Architecture, Decorations, and Art”; “Epigraphy and Sigillography”. Some articles touch on more than one specific section, so they may be found between sections.
