Summary: | The Southern Ghors and Northeast ʿAraba Archaeological Survey was in the field in May to June 1985 and October to December 1986. The 1985 and 1986 seasons were a reconnaissance and a systematic and intensive survey of the area. For infield work the area was divided into five environmental zones on the basis of the Jordan 1:50,000 (Series K737) scale maps. A total of 240 sites were surveyed. These range from lithic and sherd scatters to major architectural sites. Preliminary analysis of the materials from the various sites leads to a range of dating from the Lower/Middle Paleolithic to the modern periods. However, not all periods are represented in the survey territory. This analysis also leads to a preliminary interpretation of many of the sites. |
