Rishon le-Zion. Volume I
The Middle Bronze Age II Cemeteries (Volume I/1: The Excavations + Volume I/2: Finds and Conclusions)
by Yosi Levy and Raz Kletter
The Rishon le-Zion Middle Bronze Age cemeteries were discovered at the beginning of 1991 in the area known as the Rishon le-Zion Sand Dunes and excavated in the 1990s within a decade of salvage excavations. Volume 1 is devoted to the description of ca. 200 graves excavated within 6 different areas. All graves are illustrated by photos and detailed plans. Volume 2 focuses on the excavated objects, i.e. pottery, weapons, metal belts and other metal finds, beads and organic material. Of special interest is the large collection of ca. 150 Egyptian scarabs, now published and illustrated in their entirety.
