This volume is devoted to the discussion of Tell el-Yahudiyeh Ware’s repertory, unearthed in the Middle Bronze Age sites of the northern Levant. These juglets initially emerged in the northern Levant in two separate regions in Syria-Palestine. These two variants developed in two lines producing the Syro-Palestinian and the Levanto-Egyptian lines. This distinction should be from now on essential in considering Tell el-Yahudiyeh Ware. A significant focus is given to the collections discovered, over the last decades, in Damascus Oasis and southern Syria, labeled here the Syrian Tell el-Yahudiyeh Ware (Branch K). A large part of this Syrian corpus is introduced here for the first time. The evaluation shows that this material comprises more than half of Tell el-Yahudiyeh Ware in the northern Levant and was used from the beginning of the 18th to the middle of the 16th century BCE. Moreover, light is shed onto the archaeological contexts where the vessels originally belonged. This approach enhances the perception of this ware’s value and position in the material culture in the Middle Bronze Age Levant. All things considered, this book is a new addition to many decades of research that aims to understand the origin and development of one of the most challenging elements of the Middle Bronze Age pottery tradition.
