Description
Summary:The communal meal at Khirbet Qumran was an attested practice, based on these factors: the two large ceramic assemblages found in pantries L89 and L114, and the animal bone deposits found within ceramic vessels, scattered in spaces between or outside buildings all over the site. This paper will inspect both the archaeological evidence for the existence of the communal meals at Khirbet Qumran and the period of time during which they took place.
Les repas communautaires à Khirbet Qumrân étaient une pratique attestée, qui fut démontrée sur la base de ces éléments: les deux grands assemblages de céramique trouvés dans les garde-manger L89 et L114, ainsi que les dépôts d’os d’animaux trouvés dans des récipients en céramique, dispersés à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur des bâtiments partout sur le site. Cet article examinera à la fois la preuve archéologique de l’existence des repas communautaires à Khirbet Qumrân et la période de temps au cours de laquelle ces repas ont eu cours.
