Tell es-Safi/Gath III
Studies on the Early Bronze Age, Part 1
edited by Itzhaq Shai, Haskel J. Greenfield and Aren M. Maeir
This volume of the final reports is the first part of a sub-series of the final reports dedicated to the Early Bronze Age remains on the site. In this volume, the three upper levels, which were extensively investigated from 2004 until 2014, are described in detail. Next to the stratigraphy, chapters are devoted, among others, to the lithic and ceramic assemblage, the basalt ground stone objects, isotope analyses of domestic animals, a ritual domestic donkey burial, and copper objects and their provenance.
Tell es-Safi/Gath Archaeological Project commenced in 1996 and continued until the summer season of July 2021, which constituted the last largescale season of the project. Over the course of 25 years, as excavations, field surveys and various research on the archaeology, history and environment of this site was conducted, numerous publications relating to the project have appeared, including articles, chapters and volumes. Two previous volumes of the final reports have already appeared, dealing with various aspects relating to the site: Tell es-Safi/Gath I (AAT 69); Tell es-Safi/Gath II (AAT 105). The present, third volume of the final reports, is the first part of a sub-series of the final reports dedicated to the Early Bronze Age remains on the site. In this volume, the three upper levels (E5a, E5b, E5c), which were extensively investigated from 2004 until 2014, are described in detail. Next to the “Stratigraphy of the Early Bronze Age”, chapters are devoted, among others, to the “Lithic Assemblage”, the “Pottery Assemblage”, the “Basalt Ground Stone Objects”, “Isotope Analyses of Domestic Animal”, a “Ritual Domestic Donkey Burial” and “Copper Objects and their Provenance”.
