Description
Summary:Albright's research on Canaanite and Phoenician civilization remains fundamental some thirty years beyond his passing. These three decades have seen an explosion of archaeological excavation of Canaanite and Phoenician sites on land and under water around the Mediterranean and along the Atlantic shores of Spain and Morocco. The author takes us on a tour through the new discoveries-from archaeological surveys, architectural finds, material cultural and technology studies, burials, the study of trade items, and underwater excavations-that have revolutionized our understanding of Canaanite and Phoenician civilization.
