IPIAO is a four volume compendium about the history of religion in Palestine/Israel on the basis of iconographic findings. It encompasses the time period from the 12th century BCE to the earliest Persian era. Images from Palestine / Israel are frequently fragmentary and in bad condition; as a rule, they are juxtaposed with more complete images from the great neighbouring cultures, especially Syria, Anatolia, Mesopotamia and Egypt, and used for the reconstruction of the underlying religious symbolic system. This project is one-of-a-kind. Never before has the entire pictorial art of Palestine/Israel been presented from its beginnings and related to the Ancient Near East – in a similar way. The volumes centre is a catalogue organized by epochs and themes. The images are rendered in an aesthetically appealing way. German Description: Mit Band 4 wird das umfangreiche Kompendium zur Religionsgeschichte Palastinas/Israels auf Basis ikonographischer Funde abgeschlossen. Dieser Band mit annahernd tausend weiteren Objekten widmet sich der Eisenzeit bis zum Beginn der Achamenidenherrschaft. Das Gesamtwerk IPIAO umfasst damit fast zweitausend Objekte ab dem 12. Jahrtausend v. Chr. Konsequent werden Bilder aus Palastina/Israel mit solchen der Nachbarkulturen korreliert und zur Rekonstruktion des zugrundeliegenden religiosen Symbolsystems beigezogen. Das Projekt ist in seiner Art einmalig. Nie zuvor wurde die gesamte Bildkunst Palastinas/Israels – von ihren Anfangen an und in Bezug auf den Alten Orient – in ahnlicher Weise als Katalog prasentiert und mit ubersichtlichen Einleitungen zu Kulturgeschichte, Themen der Bildkunst und biblischen Bezugen angereichert.
