Description
Summary:Cultic artifacts are frequently connected with far reaching hypotheses. The bull statute found in D_ahret eã-Ãaw_le is supposed to have been the centre of a cult in which Israelites honoured Yahweh. A scratching in the altar of Tell es-Seba~ is interpreted as snake. The present paper critically evaluates both hypotheses and calls them in question.
