F. Albright Institute of Archaeological Research in Jerusalem. Much of his long career has been spent helping young scholars expand their contacts and hone their skills. This volume is a collection of articles by some of the many developing scholars and Albright fellows with whom Sy has shared his time and knowledge. Their appreciation shows in the quality of their articles, the breadth of their interests, and their dedication to Sy Gitin.The articles range from a discussion of tomb robbing in Palestinian areas, to a geographical analysis of the Shephelah region, to Islamic historical texts, to Israelite cult stands, to Middle Bronze Age burials. In addition, there are several articles by former members of the Tel Miqne?Ekron staff that draw on the finds from that site and further demonstrate Sy?s willingness to mentor and to share the publication of the site?s rich trove of materials.This book not only honors Dr. Gitin by the willingness of fellows to contribute to the volume; it also expands our knowledge base of the southern Levant and shows that ?Material Culture Matters.? 606 $aFouilles archeologiques$zIsrae?l$2ram 606 $aAntiquities$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00810745 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst00917564 606 $aMaterial culture$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01011739 606 $aSocial archaeology$2fast$3(OCoLC)fst01122274 606 $aSocial archaeology$zPalestine 606 $aSocial archaeology$zIsrael 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zPalestine 606 $aExcavations (Archaeology)$zIsrael 606 $aMaterial culture$zPalestine$xHistory$yTo 1500 606 $aMaterial culture$zIsrael$xHistory$yTo 1500 607 $aIsrae?l$xAntiquites$2ram 607 $aMiddle East$zPalestine$2fast 607 $aIsrael$2fast 607 $aPalestine$xAntiquities 607 $aIsrael$xAntiquities 608 $aHistory. 615 7$aFouilles archeologiques 615 7$aAntiquities. 615 7$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 7$aMaterial culture. 615 7$aSocial archaeology. 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aSocial archaeology 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 0$aExcavations (Archaeology) 615 0$aMaterial culture$xHistory 615 0$aMaterial culture$xHistory 676 $a933 702 $aMullins$b Robert A. 702 $aBrody$b Aaron Jed 702 $aSpencer$b John R$f(1945- )$g(John Richard), 712 02$aW.F.
