Author

Subjects
*IRON Age, *SCHOLARS, *BIBLICAL criticism
Abstract

The identification of biblical Ziklag has plagued scholars for over 150 years. Fourteen potential sites have been identified, and there is yet to be a consensus. Based on geographical, archaeological, textual, and chronological considerations, it will be argued that Khirbet er-Ra'i, the most recent site proposed, is the best candidate for biblical Ziklag.

Abstract

The book review discusses the significance of "Tel Reḥov: A Bronze and Iron Age City in the Beth-Shean Valley" as a valuable resource for studying various aspects of Iron Age southern Levantine chronology, Cypriot and Greek chronologies, specialized industries in the early Iron Age, and the ceramic typology of northern Israel. The review praises the comprehensive and detailed excavation report, which covers topics such as geography, excavation methodology, pottery, inscriptions, figurative art, and more. The report also includes specialist reports on various objects and natural science studies, providing a comprehensive discussion of the excavation's results and contributing to our understanding of the transitions from the Late Bronze Age through the early Iron Age. The authors emphasize the challenges of establishing a chronological framework and highlight the importance of considering 2σ date ranges and paleomagnetic analysis for more accurate dating. The report also explores other aspects of the material culture at Tel Reḥov, such as wooden beams and the specialized textile industry. Overall, the report is a valuable resource for scholars studying ancient Israel and the early Iron Age in northern Israel. [Extracted from the article]

7. General introduction : Communicating in the past connecting with the past

Author

Davis, Gillan, Keimer, Kyle H., and Gillan Davis

Abstract

This introduction presents an overview of the key concepts covered in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book suggests that it is the quintessential nature of humans to communicate with each other. Good communications, bad communications, miscommunications, or no communications at all have driven everything from world events to the most mundane of interactions. An awareness of a communication's context is what gives that communication efficacy. The main theme of the book is communication: how it was done, what intended message was communicated, and the relationships/identities that were established through communication between people. The context of situation is really the total environment in which a communication unfolds. Delimiting registers is neither simple nor wholly objective. Still, ancient registers are increasingly possible to articulate based on social-semiotic considerations due to the growing amount of evidence gained through archaeological excavation and, unfortunately in some cases, looting.

9. The historical geography of 1 Kings 9:11–14.

Author

Keimer, Kyle H.

Subjects
*HISTORICAL geography, *IRON Age, *ARCHAEOLOGICAL human remains, *ARCHAEOLOGICAL chronology
Abstract

1 Kings 9:11–14 relates Solomon's sale of the land of Cabul to Hiram, king of Tyre. Commentaries and studies on this pericope have dealt with its linguistic and historical aspects without reaching consensus on where this land was, what the term 'Cabul' actually means, or even whether these verses preserve an actual historic event from the 10th century BCE. This article addresses these issues through a more systematic presentation of the archaeological remains and geographic realities in the Galilee, and in so doing, offers a more contextually derived understanding of the events recorded in 1 Kgs 9:11–14 than has heretofore been offered.
