472 poids pheniciens dates du VIIIe au IIIe siecle avant Jesus-Christ, dont pres de la moitie sont inedits, sont repertories dans ce livre. Leur analyse a enrichi le corpus epigraphique phenicien de nouvelles inscriptions et le repertoire iconographique de nouveaux motifs; elle a eclaire les techniques de fabrication, les operations de pesee et les procedes frauduleux, et revele une phase capitale de l’histoire de la balance qui a conduit a l’invention de la romaine. Quelques ateliers ont pu etre identifies, avec les categories ponderales qu’ils produisaient et leurs periodes de production. Les relations des systemes ponderaux pheniciens avec les autres systemes ponderaux de Transeuphratene, notamment les systemes hebreux et syriens, ont ete soigneusement definies. Enfin, l’etude metrologique, element central d’un livre sur les poids, a developpe une methodologie originale adaptant les modeles statistiques aux poids pheniciens; elle a permis d’eliminer plusieurs “fantomes metrologiques”, bases erronees de theories des echanges commerciaux au Proche-Orient, et de poser les bases prudentes et solides de la metrologie phenicienne, qui seront aussi tres precieuses pour les etudes numismatiques.
