解説
This open access investigation of Northern Jordan in the first millennium BCE offers new insights into the mechanisms of social complexity, showing how communities adapted to their environments, negotiated power and interacted with their neighbours.
The Iron Age Levant is a pivotal period in human history, representing a crucial phase in the evolution of complex societies. This era witnessed the emergence of new political structures, economic systems and cultural expressions that have had a lasting impact on subsequent civilizations. With the focus on Northern Jordan, a region much less studied than the surrounding areas of the Levant, the case studies of Tall Ya'moun and Tall al-Assara present the most recent archaeological excavations and surveys from fortified settlement sites and their surroundings.
Individual chapters discuss topics such as observations on architecture, the results of different types of scientific analyses, and detailed analyses of specific artefacts such as pottery, stone vessels and bones. The contributors employ cutting-edge digital and analytical methodologies, such as soil geochemistry, archaeobotany, zooarchaeology, network analysis, GIS and 3D technologies. As a result, this book presents an important step forward in outlining the role of Northern Jordan in the political and cultural map of the Iron Age Levant, and it also sheds light on the origins of many modern cultural and religious practices.
