Il progetto si è concentrato sullo studio degli strumenti da filatura e tessitura provenienti dal Levante Meridionale (interno e costiero) e dall’Egitto. La cronologia indagata è molto ampia, poiché comprende l’analisi degli oggetti dalla loro comparsa fino all’inizio dell’età persiana, quando iniziano una serie di cambiamenti nella materia prima (introduzione del cotone e della seta) e nelle tecniche di filatura e tessitura. Gli oggetti sono stati studiati da un punto di vista diacronico, per capire l’evoluzione e la continuità d’uso di particolari forme o materiali rispetto ad altri, e sincr

Abstract:

Archaeological studies of early civilizations in southwestern Asia concentrate on the evolution of urbanism and the state, and generally assume that cities were the foci of complex societies. However, some early civilizations may represent largely extinct forms of complex, but essentially rural, society. Archaeological concepts of urbanism and urbanization are reviewed and critiqued. Rural communities are defined as agriculturally self-sufficient, while cities have populations too large for independent agricultural subsistence. Ethnographic and historical data are used to propose size classifi

Abstract:

The social transformations in the South Levantine Neolithic show two basic tendencies: 1) complex social structures are replaced by less complex ones, before more complex social structures develop; and 2) most likely connected to that: heterarchical and hierarchical patterns are linked together in varying ways; the more needs for social regulation appear, the more heterarchical elements trigger corporate, hierarchical and central structures, and new sedentary types of conflict occur. The development of family and communal life modes moved as shifting waves through the ecozones of the southern

Abstract:

The late Iron Age in the ancient Near East was a period marked by dramatic changes. Politically, the rise of the Neo-Assyrian empire ushers in the beginning of imperial rule. At the same time, Phoenician expansion efforts across the Mediterranean, and the emerging South Arabian caravan trade led to greater connectivity across the ancient Near East and Mediterranean worlds. In the southern Levant, the late Iron Age is also a period marked by change, including large scale urbanization at sites such as Jerusalem and Ekron, increased scale of production of goods such as wine and olive oil on the c

Abstract:

Archaeological studies of ethnicity and identity have gained increasing momentum in the late 20th and early 21st centuries. This thesis is a critical examination of differing approaches to the interpretation of material culture in the detection of sociocultural identities. Theorisation in this field has often occurred in lieu of developing practical frameworks of analysis that are applicable to the material record. The lack of clarity arising from recurrent use of subjective concepts such as „ethnic identity‟ and „archaeological subject‟ without adequately defining these terms further hinders

This thesis aims to reassess the principal concepts used by archaeologists in their attempts to interpret the late Iron Age archaeology of southern Israel and Jordan. This study focuses in particular on the archaeological remains that have traditionally been associated with the 'Edomites' mentioned in the Old Testament. This reassessment involves examining two inter-related themes. The first is largely historiographical, the aim being to highlight the socio-political and intellectual contexts in which the study of the 'Edomites' became an important discourse.

An understanding of population dynamics is essential for reconstructing the trajectories of central and southern Levantine Pre-Pottery Neolithic (PPN) villages during the Neolithic Demographic Transition (NDT). Whilst pre-existing population estimates of PPN villages have made a valuable contribution to our understanding of the Neolithic, these are based on limited methodological and theoretical frameworks, reducing the efficacy of these estimates for exploring the relationship between demographic parameters and socio-cultural development during this period.

Abstract:

Urban centres reformed throughout Palestine during the Middle Bronze Age (MBA) in the first half of the second millennium B.C.E. One element in certain sites was the appearance of a monumental symmetrical temple form. These structures have attracted terms including ‘fortress’ temple and ‘Migdol’. The symmetrical temple sequences dominated the religious landscape of the southern Levant for approximately 800 years until the close of the Late Bronze Age (LBA). Knowledge of the operation of these temples within secular and religious environments remains limited. This thesis demonstrates the value

Abstract:

The origins of agriculture was one of the most significant turning points in human history, yet, no consensus has been reached on its causes. The most commonly cited precursors to agriculture include population pressure, intensive foraging, and sedentism. These critical factors play central roles in models of agricultural origins, yet have not been rigorously tested. In the Levant, the Natufian period (ca. 13,000-10,500 B.P.) immediately preceded agricultural origins. This research applies ecological models to the Natufian archaeological record to formally test whether population pressure, sed

There is no systematic analysis of the correlates of destruction and little work to ascertain whether they correspond to the claims of original historical sources.

This Honours research thesis takes an in-depth look at the human skeletal remains from an Early Bronze Age I Jericho tomb, excavated by Kathleen Kenyon in the 1950’s.

A sample of the tomb has been analysed in order to study the demographics and health of the occupants. In doing so, it is not only the intention to create a picture of human life in Jericho at this time, but also tie the human skeletal remains back into the archaeology of Jericho, and the Southern Levant.

(2) what was the energetic cost of building cities, and how was this construction organized, in terms of resources

The first (13th-12th Centuries BCE) relates to a final phase of Egyptian economic and military domination in the region. The second (11th-10th/9th Centuries BCE) relates to a widespread re-emergence of local semi-independent polities

The time scale encompasses the rise and collapse of the earliest agrarian civilizations in this region. The archaeological record suggests that increases in social complexity were linked to climatic episodes (e.g., favorable climatic conditions coincide with intervals of prosperity or marked social development such as the Neolithic Revolution ca. 11.5 ka BP, the Secondary Products

Abstract:

Il lavoro qui presente si pone l'obiettivo di analizzare l'impatto dell'avvento di Roma sulle popolazioni dell'area del Levante meridionale, in particolare quelle gravitanti nelle moderne regioni di Galilea, Golan, Hauran e Giordania settentrionale. Il concetto di «romanizzazione», infatti, subisce qui nuovi significati, più vicini a termini come «ibridizzazione» o «globalizzazione», poiché forti sono le componenti locali che emergono dall'analisi effettuata, ma allo stesso tempo si rafforzano e aumentano gli scambi culturali. Nasce così una nuova cultura, diversa dalla precedente, che trae l

Abstract:

The objective of this thesis is to enhance the archaeological visibility of mobile pastoralists in the southern Levant, accomplished through an ethnoarchaeological study of Bedouin mortuary practices in Jordan. Qualitative data, collected via 136 ethnographic interviews, and quantitative data, collected from 20 Bedouin cemeteries, are analyzed to distinguish the material residues of Bedouin funerary practices. Patterns in these data are investigated using a multi-scalar spatial model, to improve archaeological interpretations and produce a predictive model for locating the material signatures

Abstract:

# Abstract The Chalcolithic Southern Levant (4500 to 3800 BCE) is especially well-known for its outstanding copper objects, such as the crowns and mace heads, found, among others, in the Nahal Mishmar Hoard as the largest and most prominent assemblage. They are made in the lost wax casting technique with polymetallic copper alloys, whose ore sources are located in the Anatolian or Southern Caucasian mountains. The combination of this metal type, exclusively used in the Chalcolithic Southern Levant, and the earliest evidence for this technologically complex casting process in West Asia attest t
