A. S. Macalister published reports on his PEF excavations at Tell Gezer in central Israel, including notice of having traced more than 1,400 meters (almost a full mile) of defense walls around the site. Now, a century later, a detailed reassessment of these fortifications is provided in the publication of Gezer VII: The Middle Bronze and Later Fortifications in Fields II, IV, and VIII, edited by Joe D. Seger and James W. Hardin. This volume features work at Gezer sponsored by Hebrew Union College and Harvard University between 1968 and 1974, reporting on excavations at Macalister?s ?Southern Gate? (Field IV) and along his ?Inner? and ?Outer? wall systems both on the southern (Field II) and northern (Field VIII) flanks of the site. These excavations produced much new data, enabling a confident dating of the Southern Gate complex and the Inner Wall system to the latter part of the Middle Bronze period (1700?1500 B.C.E.) and of the Outer Wall to the Late Bronze II and subsequent Hellenistic eras. Among a rich array of cultural remains, intramural occupation of the Middle Bronze Age yielded a gold jewelry hoard and early evidence of alphabetic writing. 410 0$aAnnual of the Nelson Glueck School of Biblical Archaeology ;$vv. 9. 606 $aMaterial culture$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01011739 606 $aFortification$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00933024 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00917564 606 $aBronze age$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00839439 606 $aAntiquities$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00810745 606 $aBronze age$zIsrael$zGezer Site 606 $aMaterial culture$zIsrael$zGezer Site 606 $aFortification$zIsrael$zGezer Site 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zIsrael$zGezer Site 607 $aIsrael$zGezer Site$2fast 607 $aIsrael$2fast 607 $aIsrael$xAntiquities 607 $aGezer Site (Israel) 615 7$aMaterial culture 615 7$aFortification 615 7$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 7$aBronze age 615 7$aAntiquities 615 7$aBronze age 615 7$aMaterial culture 615 7$aFortification 615 7$aExcavations (Archaeology) 676 $a933/.48 700 $aSeger$b Joe D$01042436 701 $aHardin$b James W$f1964-$01513056 701 $aGitin$b Seymour$f1936-$0975496 801 0$bMdBmJHUP 801 1$bMdBmJHUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910786867603321 996 $aGezer VII: The Middle Bronze and Later Fortifications in Fields II, IV, and VIII$93747298 997 $aUNINA
