Kiriath-jearim : The Shmunis Family Excavations by Thomas Romer

This volume reports the results of the Tel Aviv University and the Coll?ge de France's excavations at Kiriath-jearim. The site, located on a strategic peak west of Jerusalem, is of crucial importance for the study of the archaeology and history of Iron Age Israel and Judah, and later, of Hellenistic and Roman Judea. Specific attention is given to the later phases of the Iron Age, attempting to shed light on the biblical tradition that the site accommodated the temple of the Ark.
